RESPONSE TO VENDOR QUESTIONS

1. Who will be responsible for providing the water‐soluble bags the government or the vendor?

Vendor should provide a water‐soluble bag which sits inside a basket or container. This will allow the person picking up the bag filled dirty laundered uniforms easy removal access without having to transfer the dirty uniforms to another bag or container.

2. These are all 65/35 blend garments and no FR garments, right?

That is correct. We require Standard Automotive Industry Uniform made from 65% polyester / 35% cotton blend.

3. The office employee shirts: you are requiring 3 buttons, which implies polo shirt. Almost all polos are special breathable 100% polyester, and this is preferred by nearly all our customers. The reason is that this material is more comfortable and stays more professional during the day. The blend will be special order, therefore more expensive.

Yes, 100% Polyester Polo shirt is acceptable. The PWS has been updated to remove the blend % for this item.

4. Who is the current contractor on this project?

Red Orange America

5. Section 5.7 of solicitation states weekly laundry of (1) unit of launder shirt and (1) pair of pants. Shouldn’t this be (5) for each for 11) sets of rented garments?

No, one laundered unit is: one (1) rented shirt and pants or one (1) rented jacket or one (1) rented coverall.

6. Section 1.14 of solicitation: Confirming that you require all drivers accessing facility to perform background check and not all contractor’s employees.

Correct, drivers who access our Army Reserve facilities must have a background check, plus they will require proper ID to enter military installations.

7. AT file: Confirming that you require these trainings for all employees entering facility and the form is required if awarded.

Correct, anyone who has access to an Army Reserve or military installation must have these trainings completed.

The Contractor’s mitigation plan will be determined to be acceptable solely at the discretion of the Contracting Officer and in the event the Contracting Officer unilaterally determines that any such OCI cannot be satisfactorily avoided or mitigated, the Contracting Officer may affect other remedies as he or she deems necessary, including prohibiting the Contractor from participation in subsequent contracted requirements which may be affected by the OCI.

1.18. Quality Control. Quality Control is the responsibility of the Contractor. The Contractor is responsible for the delivery of quality services/supplies to the Government (see FAR 52.212-4, Contractor Terms and Conditions - Commercial Items). A formal Quality Control Plan (QCP) is not required for this requirement; however, the Contractor shall maintain an inspection system commensurate with commercial practices to ensure the Contractor only tenders acceptance those items or services that conform the requirements of this contract. The Contractor is responsible for ensuring the requirements of this project are satisfied in accordance with the contract specifications and all applicable environmental laws and regulations; the presence or absence of a duly authorized Government Inspector shall not relieve the Contractor of this responsibility.

1.18.1. Contingency Plan. Contractor shall furnish a detailed, written Contingency Plan indicating that services can be continued in the event of Contractor’s equipment (including transportation vehicle failure), production facility failure, or any circumstance that impacts the Contractor’s ability to perform the services. A Contingency Plan shall be submitted to the COR NLT 30 calendar days after the contract award and annually NLT 30 calendar days after the start of the start date of the option year.

1.18.2. Quality Assurance. The Government will evaluate the Contractor’s performance under this contract in accordance with the Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP). This plan is primarily focused on what the Government must do to ensure that the Contractor has performed in accordance with the performance standards. It defines how the performance standards will be applied, the frequency of surveillance, and the acceptable quality levels (performance thresholds).

1.18.2.1. Non-conforming Supplies or Services. When a Contractor's performance does not meet contract requirements and/or approved work schedules and/or timeframes it is considered non-conformance.

Nonconformance shall be classified in one of three categories: level I (Minor), level II (Major) or level III (Critical).

The Government may re- inspect work designated for re-performance or late performance.

1.18.2.1.1. Level I (Minor) non-conformance is defined as a non-conformance that is not likely to materially reduce the usability of the supplies or services for their intended purpose or is a departure from established standards having little bearing on the effective use or operation of the supplies or services. Minor non-conformance usually can be corrected on the spot, where no further corrective action (CA) response is necessary and can be issued by the COR to the Contractor either through a verbal or written non-conformance report. Minor non-conforming services shall be re- performed within a specified time frame at no increase in contract price. If minor non-conformances are recurring or re-performance is not completed in full and within the specified time a Level II non-conformance may be issued to the Contractor by the Contracting Officer (KO).

1.18.2.1.2. Level II (Major) non-conformance Level 2 nonconformance(s) are those that are ‘major’ in nature such that they are not promptly correctable, and/or warrant root cause analysis and preventive action, and/or need action by the contractor to determine if other contract requirements are affected. These nonconformance’s are serious enough to warrant not only correction of the nonconformance, but also a written response from the contractor in the form of a Corrective Action Plan (CAP), and Government follow-up. The qualifying distinction between a Level 1 and Level 2 nonconformance is the need for a CAP and Government follow-up. A NCR identifying a Level 2 nonconformance may also be issued after repetitive Level 1 instances of the same or similar nonconformance demonstrate the contractor is failing to institute effective corrective action and/or failing to implement effective quality and/or internal control(s). Repetitive Level 1/minor nonconformance of the same or similar requirement(s) increases the risk to the Government that continued, repetitious, or cumulative failures may materially reduce the usability of the supplies, services, construction, work, or deliverables for their intended purpose or is an indicator that root cause analysis and a CAP is required to fix the underlying conditions creating the nonconformance.

Further, serious individual contractor employee misconduct discovered by the Government and traceable to contract requirements should normally result in a Level 2 nonconformance because the serious nature of misconduct necessitates contractor management conduct root cause analysis, take preventive actions, and requires Government follow-up (characteristics of a Level 2 NCR). Further, issue a NCR with a Level 3 nonconformance for serious contractor employee misconduct only when there is a trend demonstrating a breakdown in contractor management or processes allowing serious misconduct to repetitively occur, or the misconduct poses a hazardous or unsafe condition for the personnel receiving the contracted supply, service, or construction, and misconduct can be traced to nonconformance of contract requirements.

1.18.2.1.3. Level III (Critical) non-conformance: Level 3 nonconformance(s) are those that are ‘critical’ in nature such that they represent a serious weakness in internal controls and/or have actual or potential significant impact(s) on contract performance and/or the supported unit/Government operations. For these nonconformance(s), the qualifying distinction between a Level 2 and Level 3 nonconformance is the seriousness of the issue prompting the need for higher level management to address the nonconformance and resulting corrective action. Due to the nature of a Level 3 nonconformance, these types of nonconformance are candidates for contract remedies. Therefore, before issuance of a NCR with a Level 3 nonconformance, consideration should be made whether an NCR or contract remedy is more appropriate. Issuing a Level 3 NCR in lieu of a contract remedy would normally be considered the Government’s final attempt to work with the contractor to resolve a contractual nonconformance before contractual remedies are used. However, issuance of a Level 3 NCR is not a requirement before using contractual remedies. A NCR identifying a Level 3 nonconformance (or a contract remedy) may be issued after repetitive Level 2 instances of the same or similar nonconformance demonstrate the contractor is failing to institute effective corrective action or failing to implement effective quality/internal controls. Repetitive major nonconformance’s with the same or similar requirement(s) increase the risk to the Government that continued, repetitious, or cumulative failures may significantly impact the mission, or may result in hazardous/unsafe conditions.

1.18.2.1.4. Inspection Results. The Contractor will be notified of Government inspection results. The Contractor shall acknowledge receipt of the inspection results. The Contractor may be notified of inspection results verbally.

Verbal notifications of defective work will be confirmed in writing. When Government inspectors are unable to contact the Contractor to notify the Contractor of inspection results, acceptance or rejection of work will be made on the basis of the initial inspection.
