The following have been added by full text:

RESPONSE TO VENDOR QUESTIONS

Q1. For the Fiber connection, are there local infrastructure that has fiber runs that we can utilize to extend the connection from the Demark Location?

A1. No there is no existing fiber into the facility.

Q2. For Cable/TV, can we utilize YouTube TV as a replacement to save money? We can utilize Smart TV and Wireless connection/ Hardwired into the TV itself to provide that connectivity.

A2. YouTube TV is unacceptable. We are not calling for streaming services. We require the ability to view local new broadcasts.

Q3. Are we going to utilize the current network devices onsite for this project or supply a new network infrastructure.

Note: To obtain speeds, the throughput of the Firewall needs to be able to handle the speeds. The same goes for the rest of the Network. Switches and access points need to be able to handle the multi-Gbps speeds.

A3. New network devices will be required; use of existing cabling infrastructure of existing Commercial network can be used.

Q4. For switch ports, how many is needed to be supplied? How many client connections are needed in the network?

A4. 24 ports per closet, 4 Closets

Q5. For Access Points, Is there a map of the location, to perform a heat map to verify the Access point count needed?

Note: Any Concrete rooms will degrade the performance of wireless infrastructure.

A5. There are no concrete rooms… this facility was built to DoD constructions post 9/11 so it has a double layer of chicken wire on the exterior. Standard floorplan is provided; see both Attachment 3 - Floorplan (lower level) and Attachment 4 - Floorplan (upper level). The government is unable to provide a heat map.

Q6. Can we provide a secondary failover ISP WAN connection?

A6. That is not a requirement in the scope.

1.7. General Information:

1.7.1. Quality Control Plan (QCP): 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 commercial service. However, the contractor shall maintain an inspection system commensurate with commercial practices to ensure the Contractor only tenders for acceptance those items or services that conform to the requirements of this contract.

1.7.2. Quality Assurance (QA)The Government shall evaluate the contractor’s performance under this contract in accordance with the Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP). This plan is a government only document primarily focused on what the Government must do to assure that the contractor has performed in accordance with the requirements of the contract. The Government reserves the right to inspect or test any supplies or services that have been tendered for acceptance. Non-conforming services shall be re-performed at no increase in contract price. If non-conforming services are recurring, cannot be re-performed, or the services fail to achieve the Performance Requirements Summary (PRS), the Government may reject the nonconforming service(s) and document the contractor’s performance record accordingly. The Government may also issue a Nonconformance Report (NCR) in which the contractor will be required to respond with the development of a corrective action plan (CAP) which identifies the root cause, corrective action (CA) for the root cause, CA for the specific nonconformance, and the date the CAs will be complete. The Government may also reduce the payment to the contractor IAW the PRS or reduce payment to reflect the value of the services performed or may perform the services and charge the Contractor for any related cost incurred and/or may terminate this contract for cause.

1.7.2.1. 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. Non-conformance 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.

1.7.2.2. 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).

1.7.2.3. Level II (Major) non-conformance is defined as a non-conformance, other than critical, that is likely to result in failure of the supplies or services, or to materially reduce the usability of the supplies or services for their intended purpose. Recurring Minor non-conformances, or a non-responsive contractor, indicating a trend or failure of the contractor’s quality control, can also be classified as a Major non-conformance. Major non-conformances shall result in the issuance of a written NCR from the KO to the contractor requiring the development of a CAP by the contractor which identifies the root cause, CA for the root cause, CA for the specific non-conformance and the date CAs will be completed.

1.7.2.4. Level III (Critical) non-conformance is defined as a non-conformance that is likely to result in hazardous or unsafe conditions for individuals using, maintaining, or depending upon the supplies or services; is likely to prevent performance of a vital agency mission; is for a repeated or uncorrected level II NCRs; or is for a non-responsive contractor to a level II NCR. Critical non-conformances shall result in the issuance of a written NCR to the contractor requiring the development of a CAP by the contractor which identifies the root cause, CA for the root cause, CA for the specific non-conformance and the date CAs will be completed.

Government-furnished property includes, but is not limited to, spares and property furnished for repair, maintenance, overhaul, or modification. Government-furnished property also includes contractor-acquired property if the contractor-acquired property is a deliverable under a cost contract when accepted by the Government for continued use under the contract.

Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP) – means the key Government-developed surveillance process document and is applied to Performance-Based Service Contracting (PBSC). The QASP is used for managing Contractor performance assessment by ensuring that systematic quality assurance methods validate that Contractor quality control efforts are timely, effective, and are delivering the results specified in the contract or task order. The QASP directly corresponds to the performance objectives and standards (i.e., quality, quantity, timeliness) specified in the Performance Work Statement (PWS). It provides specific details on how the Government will survey, observe, test, sample, evaluate, and document Contractor performance results to determine if the Contractor has met the required standards for each objective in the PWS.

Each HLO may have several statements to flesh out the areas necessary to meet the objective. Statements are similar to Level 3 in a Work Breakdown Structure.
