Questions

Solicitation SectionParagraphPageReferenceQuestionAnswer
Section BN/A10 - 28Will the government please provide the NTE amounts for Travel CLIN's 0010, 1010, 2010, 3010, & 4010?The Government will include the travel amount at time of award.
PWS 5.4.1.11st50 of 117Section 5.4.1.1 references a paragraph 5.1.14 above that does not exist. Please clarify.The correct reference is 5.2.12 - updated in PWS
PWS 5.4.1.31st50 of 117Specific tasksPWS 5.4 defines optional tasks as sections 5.5 through 5.11. Yet, PWS 5.4.1.3 indicates optional system-based tasks are in paragraphs 5.3 through 5.11. Please clarify PWS sections representing the optional tasks.Corrected in PWS: 5.4.1.3 now references 5.5 thru 5.11
Draft Solicitation 1.6.16.15th36 of 113OCICan the Government confirm that potential offerors that are currently performing development work for the ATSC (1) are not automatically precluded from consideration for award of the ATIA systems support being sought under this acquisition and (2) should an offeror be awarded a contract pursuant to this Solicitation, the awarded offeror would not be precluded from pursuing other development work with the ATSC because of OCI concerns?There is no OCI. There are government reviews and decision points in between this contract and the ATIS Sustainment Contract that provide isolation between the two efforts. As evidence, the current incumbent teams on both contracts include a common subcontractor.
Draft Technical Exhibit 3
Draft PWS 5.5 through 5.101st
4th - 9th67 of 113
49 of 113Draft Technical Exhibit 3 & Specification Tasks 5.5 through 5.10Technical Exhibit 3 (p. 67 of 113) lists the estimated workload data, i.e., the hours previously performed under the PWS by labor category and by contract option task structure. Can the Government clarify the estimates of hours vis-à-vis the projected number of annual tickets described for the option tasks in sections 5.5 through 5.10 (p. 49 of 113)? For example, 11,356 hours have been estimated by the Government for the Core System-Based tasks, but for the option tasks, the estimated hours per option don’t vary greatly but the projected number of annual tickets do. A full FTE for 5 annual tickets is estimated for Task 5.1 when 2 FTE are estimated for 75 tickets for Task 5.7. Two (2) FTE are estimated for the 75 annual tickets for Task 5.7 when 3 FTE each are estimated for the 245 tickets of Task 5.5 and the 275 tickets of Task 5.6.Estimated Workload Data values in Technical Exhibit 3 and projected number of annual tickets are based on historical data over the previous 2-3 contract years. As stated in the PWS, not all tickets will require a full set of design artifacts (use case, function point, story card, wire frame, FTM): a large number of tickets are simple requirements/updates that do not require a lot of time/effort, so it would be difficult, if not impossible, to try to directly correlate number of projected tickets to estimated workload hours.
PWS 5.4.1.11st50 of 117work tickets maintained in the CM systemThe section states, "…system-specific work tickets maintained in the CM system referenced in paragraph 5.1.14 above." There is no 5.1.14. Please provide correct reference.The correct reference is 5.2.12 - updated in PWS
PWS 1.4.1.11st30 of 117AnalysisThis section mentions artifacts as described in section 1.2. Seems this is a typo that should read 1.3?Updated 1.4.1.1 to reference sections 1.3 and 5.4
SF14491Due Date TimeThe SF1449 states has the due date time listed as 12AM on July 31st, please clarify if the time should be AM or PM.Corrected
Part 7, Attachment / Technical Exhibit Listing7.2, Attachment 2/Technical Exhibit 2 - Deliverables Schedule64 - 69N/AWithin the deliverables schedule table, the "Frequency" indicated for several deliverables is stated in calendar days; however, in the referenced PWS paragraph for most items, frequency is stated in business days. Will the deliverables schedule table be updated to state frequencies in business days?Updated the Deliverable Schedule (Technical Exhibit 2) to match referenced PWS paragraphs
Part 5, Specific Tasks5.4.1.651N/APara 5.4.1.6 requires the regression review report to be submitted immediately on completion of the review. There has historically been a two-day report writing period for a full pre-deployment regression review. Will the RFP be amended to allow those two days to complete the final Regression report?Under current contract, regression review report is due four(4) business days after the review begins. Current contractor submits a report on the first day of the regression review, then updates daily. Provides a BLUF section once the review is complete. Waiting an additional 2 days would push the review period to 6 days - too long.
