QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Questions and Answers:

1. Question: Listed in Table 1, under (Item/Service Description) column, in the 22nd row from the top, Maneuver BN CDD, there are another five positions that are listed as BDE staff. Should these be BN staff positions?

Answer: The PWS has been amended to reflect the correct echelon. This was a typo

2. Question: In the past the Government has required SDO/DATT support for MRX and VALEXs.

Was this support inadvertently omitted?

Answer: That portion of the MRX has been taken out for this iteration.

3. Question: Is it the Government's intent to evaluate cost as part of the technical volume? If not, what is meant by this statement?

Answer: Please review 52.212-2 for evaluation standards. This FFP (Firm Fixed Price) contract;

individual "cost" elements will not be evaluated.

4. Question: Based on this language it appears that the Government is conducting evaluation for award based on "Best Value Trade Off". If that is the Governments intension, can the Government please provide the evaluation/scoring criteria for award selection? If that is not the Government's intention, what is the criteria for award selection? Example: Technically acceptable, Lowest Price, etc.

Answer: Please review evaluation factors at 52.212-2 (Technical, Past performance, and Price) applicable to this FFP contract.

5. Question: To ensure an accurate number of laptops for contract execution, how many teams will role players be broken into?

Answer: 9-10 Teams

6. Question: What role player positions are required to have resumes attached to the proposal?

Answer: According to PRS #3 in the PWS, the Contractor is required to provide resumes for each role player indicating their academic, military, and/or DoS experience. However, we are good with only key role players, ie. Commanders, S3s, XOs, etc.

W911RZ23Q0034

7. Question: Will the client accept changes to the resumes provided for role player positions due to life circumstances affecting role player attendance?

Answer: Yes

8. On page 12, paragraph 4.4 the PWS states the contract provided computers should comply with “NIST SP 800-37r2 Framework, NIST 800-171, and DFARS clause 252.204-7012 structured to ensure proper electronic communication of classified DoD information in order to help prevent cyber incidents and any consequences of associated with loss of this information. Role players are not required to have a security clearance, what classified information could be placed on contract computers?

Answer: There is an amendment to the PWS requiring a Secret security clearance for this exercise. The role players will be working on Mission Training Center provided computers on the internal exercise classified network. Thus, the amendment for security clearances.
