QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Questions and Answers

13 June 2018

1. Does the government have an estimate by state for each of the tasks?

a. No

2. Does an offeror have to be able to service each state or can they make an offer for only one or two of the states?

a. Offeror must be able to service each state listed. If unable to service all 3 states, the firm will not be eligible for award.

3. Does the government have orders ready to be placed for this work? If yes, how many and how many by state? N/A

a. No

4. For the title report deliverable dates (acreage up to 15 days and subdivision tracts up to 10 days) is that calendar or business days?

a. Business days

5. Will the government provide a pdf-fillable form for the Title Report to be used as shown in Exhibit 4?

a. No, just an example. Title reports should conform to industry standards

6. If a title commitment is then requested after a title report has been submitted what is the timeframe for submitting the title commitment?

a. Same as title report

7. What is the timeframe for delivery of an updated title commitment?

a. Same as title report

8. The NAICS Code being used for this solicitation is 524127 related to Direct Insurance Carriers. These are the actual title insurance underwriters. They do not do closings, record documents, or disburse funds.

Those activities are typically done by agents. The NAICS code for the full statement of work would be 541191 which includes agents who can perform the entire statement of work. Can this code the changed to allow an entity that can perform all the tasks to respond to this solicitation?

a. Yes it can be changed at time of award, however, the firm that gets this award must be able to execute the entire PWS, in each state. The 524127 NAICS code was chosen to ensure that the title can be underwritten in any of the states listed. The agents can be sub-contracted out by the prime contractor.

9. In our experience the government typically wants to know if mineral rights have been severed and we notify them of that in our title reports/commitments. If a mineral search were to be needed those searches are typically handled on a per hour basis and are performed by landmen outside of the contract.

Is that what would be expected on this contract?

a. Yes.

SECTION A - SOLICITATION/CONTRACT FORM

The required response date/time has changed from 15-Jun-2018 11:00 AM to 27-Jun-2018 11:00 AM.
