QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Amendment 1 to solicitation W91238-14-Q-0059 Daguerre Gravel Haul and Placement

Questions and Answers: Q&As

1. Reference the Continuation Sheets to SF 1449 which lists Item No.s for the proposed items of work as well as a blank line where the contractor is to fill in the proposed net amount for each item. Item No.s 0001, 1001, 2001, 3001, and 4001 appear to represent subtotals of subsequent Items. For example, our interpretation of the document is that the amount we would enter for Item 0001 would be the sum of Item No.s 0001AA, 0001AB, and 0001AC. Please verify that the values to be entered by the contractor for Item No.s 0001, 1001, 2001, 3001, and 4001 are the subtotals of subsequent Items.

1. Answer: Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) 0001 is the sum of sub-CLINs 0001AA, 0001AB, and 0001AC, and CLIN 1001 is the sum of sub-CLINs 1001AA and 1001AB. The values to be entered by the contractor for CLINs 0001, 1001, 2001, 3001, and 4001 are the totals of their prospective sub-CLINs.

2. Reference the Continuation Sheets to SF 1449. Task 3.2, Hauling and Drop Site of Gravel, (for the base year and four option years) shows a quantity of 5,000 cubic yards which requires the contractor to submit a unit price per cubic yard. How are the cubic yards to be measured? By measuring the stockpile? By counting the truck loads and multiplying the number of loads by the capacity (volume) of the truck? Please provide a description of the method of measurement.

2. Answer: The method of measurement will be by the truck load. Typical dump trucks can hold 10 cubic yards. We’ll have someone on site to oversee the operation and to count the loads to verify the total delivered. If they have trucks that hold more or less than 10 yards, we’ll use their truck capacities and then multiply by the number of truck loads.

3. Reference the Continuation Sheets to SF 1449, Task 3.2, Hauling and Drop Site of Gravel, (for the base year and four option years). The description states that the “Minimum Cubic Yard is 1 and the Maximum is 5,000.” The unit price to haul and deliver only one cubic yard would be in the hundreds of dollars per cubic yard, whereas the unit price to haul and deliver 5,000 cubic yards would be in the tens of dollars per cubic yard. The minimum specified volume is too low to allow a reasonable degree of accuracy in pricing. Please increase the minimum possible quantity for Tasks 3.2 to allow the contractor to submit a reasonable unit price.

3. Answer: To make it easier and more equitable to the contractor, we will change the minimum to 10 cubic yards or estimate one truck load by Amendment.

4. Reference Specification 52.212-2, Evaluation—Commercial Items, Factor 3: Price, which states that “The Offeror shall provide a price break out. The breakout shall be for each task.” This section further describes the elements of the price break out, and the last sentence of the first paragraph states “Please document your prices on the attached price schedule.” We do not see an attached price schedule document. Please provide the price schedule document.

4. Answer: A price breakout shall be completed in any format the contractor chooses as long as the breakout is for each contract line item number (CLIN). Please omit the statement that states “Please document your prices on the attached price schedule” as a separate Price Schedule will not be included in this solicitation. We will remove this statement by Amendment.

The following have been modified:

52.212-1 INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (JULY 2013)

The NAICS code and small business size standard for this acquisition appear in Block 10 of the solicitation cover sheet (SF 1449). However, the small business size standard for a concern which submits an offer in its own name, but which proposes to furnish an item which it did not itself manufacture, is 500 employees.

(b) Submission of offers. Submit signed and dated offers to the office specified in this solicitation at or before the exact time specified in this solicitation. Offers may be submitted on the SF 1449, letterhead stationery, or as otherwise specified in the solicitation. As a minimum, offers must show--

(1) The solicitation number;

(2) The time specified in the solicitation for receipt of offers;

(3) The name, address, and telephone number of the offeror;

(10) Past performance information, when included as an evaluation factor, to include recent and relevant contracts for the same or similar items and other references (including contract numbers, points of contact with telephone numbers and other relevant information); and

(11) If the offer is not submitted on the SF 1449, include a statement specifying the extent of agreement with all terms, conditions, and provisions included in the solicitation. Offers that fail to furnish required representations or information, or reject the terms and conditions of the solicitation may be excluded from consideration.

(c) Period for acceptance of offers. The offeror agrees to hold the prices in its offer firm for 30 calendar days from the date specified for receipt of offers, unless another time period is specified in an addendum to the solicitation.

(d) Product samples. When required by the solicitation, product samples shall be submitted at or prior to the time specified for receipt of offers. Unless otherwise specified in this solicitation, these samples shall be submitted at no expense to the Government, and returned at the sender's request and expense, unless they are destroyed during preaward testing.

(e) Multiple offers. Offerors are encouraged to submit multiple offers presenting alternative terms and conditions or commercial items for satisfying the requirements of this solicitation. Each offer submitted will be evaluated separately.

(f) Late submissions, modifications, revisions, and withdrawals of offers:

(1) Offerors are responsible for submitting offers, and any modifications, revisions, or withdrawals, so as to reach the Government office designated in the solicitation by the time specified in the solicitation. If no time is specified in the solicitation, the time for receipt is 4:30 p.m., local time, for the designated Government office on the date that offers or revisions are due.

(2)(i) Any offer, modification, revision, or withdrawal of an offer received at the Government office designated in the solicitation after the exact time specified for receipt of offers is “late” and will not be considered unless it is received before award is made, the Contracting Officer determines that accepting the late offer would not unduly delay the acquisition; and--

(A) If it was transmitted through an electronic commerce method authorized by the solicitation, it was received at the initial point of entry to the Government infrastructure not later than 5:00 p.m. one working day prior to the date specified for receipt of offers; or

(B) There is acceptable evidence to establish that it was received at the Government installation designated for receipt of offers and was under the Government's control prior to the time set for receipt of offers; or

(C) If this solicitation is a request for proposals, it was the only proposal received.

(ii) However, a late modification of an otherwise successful offer, that makes its terms more favorable to the Government, will be considered at any time it is received and may be accepted.

(3) Acceptable evidence to establish the time of receipt at the Government installation includes the time/date stamp of that installation on the offer wrapper, other documentary evidence of receipt maintained by the installation, or oral testimony or statements of Government personnel.

(4) If an emergency or unanticipated event interrupts normal Government processes so that offers cannot be received at the Government office designated for receipt of offers by the exact time specified in the solicitation, and urgent Government requirements preclude amendment of the solicitation or other notice of an extension of the closing date, the time specified for receipt of offers will be deemed to be extended to the same time of day specified in the solicitation on the first work day on which normal Government processes resume.

(5) Offers may be withdrawn by written notice received at any time before the exact time set for receipt of offers.

Oral offers in response to oral solicitations may be withdrawn orally. If the solicitation authorizes facsimile offers, offers may be withdrawn via facsimile received at any time before the exact time set for receipt of offers, subject to the conditions specified in the solicitation concerning facsimile offers. An offer may be withdrawn in person by an offeror or its authorized representative if, before the exact time set for receipt of offers, the identity of the person requesting withdrawal is established and the person signs a receipt for the offer.

(g) Contract award (not applicable to Invitation for Bids). The Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Therefore, the offeror's initial offer should contain the offeror's best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is in the public interest; accept other than the lowest offer; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received.

(h) Multiple awards. The Government may accept any item or group of items of an offer, unless the offeror qualifies the offer by specific limitations. Unless otherwise provided in the Schedule, offers may not be submitted for quantities less than those specified.

System for Award Management (SAM) applies to this procurement. Contractors must be registered prior to award; lack of registration in SAM will make an offeror ineligible for award. Information on SAM registration may be obtained at http://www.sam.gov

Prepare a quotation that demonstrates the following:

Factor 1: Technical and Experience:

https://www.acquisition.gov/ mailto:deanna.c.zemovich@us http://www.sam.gov/

1(a) Technical:

Demonstrate your ability to provide the necessary labor, materials, equipment, supplies, and transportation necessary to provide the full range of services required.

1(b) Experience:

Past performance information obtained from sources other than those identified by references and other sources of information available to the Government will be used to evaluate whether the offerors overall past performance and quality of performance is acceptable. Past performance will be based on the Government’s knowledge of performance under current and previous contracts, information provided by references directly to the Government or through other means, or based on any other reasonable basis. If past performance information is not available for the offeror; the offeror shall be assigned a neutral rating which is neither favorable nor unfavorable.

Instructions for the Past Performance Questionnaire Submittals: Provide three (3) completed Past Performance Questionnaires. Questionnaires must be submitted by previous clients and must be for the same or similar type work.
