SUMMARY OF CHANGES

SECTION A - SOLICITATION/CONTRACT FORM

The required response date/time has changed from 23-Jul-2021 10:00 AM to 26-Jul-2021 10:00 AM.

SECTION L - INSTRUCTIONS, CONDITIONS AND NOTICES TO BIDDERS

The following have been modified:

INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS

1.0 BID SUBMISSION, PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS, AND CONTENT

These instructions are designed to ensure the submission of necessary information to provide clear understanding and the comprehensive evaluation of bids. In the Sealed Bidding procedures, price will determine the “Apparent Low Bid;” however, the submission of a low bid does not in and of itself determine responsibility of a bidder or a fair and reasonable price. Therefore, it is necessary to require additional information in order that the Contracting Officer may make an award to the lowest, overall priced, responsible bidder.

1.1 Site Visit & Pre-Bid Conference:

The Government has scheduled a one day site visit and pre-bid conference at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, WA, at 10:00 AM PDT on 14 July 2021. Please refer to FAR Provision 52.236-27 for additional information.

2.0 BID SUBMISSION

2.1. INSTRUCTIONS

a. Sealed Bids shall be submitted prior to 10:00 AM (PDT) on Monday, 26 July 2021 as identified on block 13 of the Standard Form (SF) 1442, as follows:

One (1) digital/electronic copy shall be e-mailed electronically to Ms. Janise Witten at janise.c.witten.civ@mail.mil with “W911S8-21-B-0006, McChord Cantonment Fence Repair Bid Submission” on the subject line.

b. No other means of submission is authorized.

c. Bidders must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) database (https://www.sam.gov), with NAICS code 238990, All Other Specialty Trade Contractors, in order to be considered for award.

d. Any bid, modification, or revision, received after the exact time specified for receipt of bids will be considered late and will not be considered. Late bids will be processed as indicated in FAR Part 14.304.

e. The CS is the sole point of contact for this procurement. Address all questions or concerns regarding this solicitation, in writing, to the CS. Please, identify the applicable Statement of Work (SOW) paragraph number or solicitation reference with each question. The deadline for submission of questions is Friday, 16 July 2021 at 10:00

AM (PDT).

2.2 BID OPENING

The Government will host a public bid opening on Monday, 26 July 2021 at 11:00 AM (PDT). However, in light of the COVID-19 outbreak and social distancing practices, this event will be held only via teleconference. Due to the established protocols to provide teleconferencing services, the Government intends to publish further instructions 72-96 hours prior to the stated bid closing time/date, which will include the teleconference number and specific relevant details of that process. Should the solicitation period need to be extended, referenced instructions will be provided 72-96 hours prior to the new bid closing time/date.
