			Refuel/Defuel
			SOLICITATION: W9124G18R0007
			Industry Questions & Answers
		Sol. Pg.	Reference	Question(s)	Government Response
	57		PWS	Is the requirement for +100 been removed for this contract as it is not mentioned anywhere in the PWS? Is it still a requirement when refueling the assigned aircraft? Please clarify as it has a big impact on pricing.	Yes, no aircraft will use +100 Fuel Additive.
	58		PWS 5.8	Please confirm that Refueling trucks and/or above ground storage tanks do not require +100 Additive system.	See response to question 1.
	59		PWS 5.12	Please clarify the requirement for the contractor to provide a fuel management system. DLA Energy provided Enterprise Business System does accounting and inventory for fuels received and issued. Is the Government requesting the contractor do double accounting and inventory of fuels?	No, DLA-E is responsible for DWCF Capitalized Fuel. This RFP speaks directly to the use of non-capitalized fuels used in support of this effort. The contractor is required to account for all fuels in their possession.
	60		Attachment	Please provide workload associated with Gasoline and Diesel deliveries.	Please see response to question 11 in set one.
	61		Attachment	We could not locate any workload associated with the Basefields. Please provide basefield workload so that offerors can accurately staff and equp the basefields.	See Attachment 15, Basefield Usage.
	62		CBA	Please provide the Current CBA so that offerors can accurately price in labor rates, H&W etc.	Please see response to question 47 in set one.
	64		Attachment	Please provide helicopters/aircraft by type to be serviced and the associated workload by type to be supported at each Basefield so that offerors can accurately staff and equip the basefields for support.	Please see response to question 30 in set one.
	65		PWS	Please provide response times to support aircraft refueling at basefields.	5.3 Refuel/Defuel at Base-fields The contractor shall ensure all Basefield aircraft (except those aircraft identified as not requiring fuel, or being unable to be refueled due to maintenance, safety, or other reasons) are at maximum fuel capacity permitted by mission design series (MDS) unless otherwise required. Priority and emphasis shall be given to those aircraft, including spares, declared flyable, and available for use by USAACE utilizing ARTS for each issue time, sortie, or flight period. Any aircraft failing to meet the requirements of this paragraph will be refueled within 30 minutes of notification. No aircraft requiring fuel shall be left at less than full capacity following the last mission of the training day for other than predetermined safety reasons.
	66		Attachment_13	Attachments 13 and 6 appear to be identical. Question; Was this intentional?	Please see response to question 45 in set one.
	67		Attachment_13	Does this data include maintenance flights? If not, would the Government post the statistics for maintenance flights?	No, stagefields only; maintenance test flights (MTF) are typically refueled on the basefields. No separate historical information for MTF refuels exists.
	68		Attachment_13	Does this data include the weekend counts seen in Attachments 11 and 12?	Inclusive, Attachment 13 stagefield usage; Attachment 11 usage by days; Attachment 12 usage by airacraft
	69		Attachment_11	The raw data tabs indicate weekend flights (since FY14) only occur on Saturdays. Will any weekend operations occur on Sundays?	Historically USAACE has only conducted training flights on Saturdays. Sunday flights are maintenance test flights only.
	70		Attachment_8	Is it the Government’s intent that these OT rates will be used for future weekend and special projects pricing?	Yes
	71		Attachment_8	Would the Government like the offeror to identify the applicable year for equipment in the price template?	Yes
	72		Attachment_7	Will the Government reword “a.” to indicate the 30 minutes is following “notification” versus “identification” of a Major Nonconformance (re-evaluation)?	Please see response to question 12 in set one.
	73		CBA	Please provide most current Collective Bargaining Agreement with the solicitation.	Please see response to question 47 in set one.
	74		CLIN 0006	Please clarify which PoP is correct.	Corrected.
	75		CLIN 0002	Please clarify which PoP is correct.	Corrected.
	76		CLIN 0003 (and OY CLINs X002) & CLIN 0004 (and OY CLINs X003)	Should those amounts be listed on the CLIN table when submitted? If yes, please confirm the Government agrees the total in the CLIN table will not match the Attachment 8 totals, which will not include the NTE amounts related to weekend and special projects and CAP.	Yes and Yes.
	77		CLIN 0003 (and OY CLINs X002)	CLINS 0003, 1002, 2002, 6002 are described as “Option Year [Number]-Special Events” whereas CLINS 3002, 4002, 5002 are described as “Option Year [Number]-Weekend and Special Events” is there meant to be a distinction made when the Government includes the words “Weekend and”?	Corrected to remove the word "weekend".
	78		CLIN 0003	Is the CLIN FFP or Cost Reimbursable? Please clarify.	See response to question five in set one.
	79		CLIN 0002	Will the Government supply workload data to provide for expected weekend work to include number of airfields required to be open, during which flight periods, and for what number of aircraft (by type)?	This is "not seperately priced" and is inclusive of the FFP. See historical data provided in Attachments 11, 12, and 13.
	80		5.16.6 Grounds	Is the correct height four (4) or six (6) inches?	See PWS Changes 8JAN19; Six (6)
	81		5.10.14 Fuel Arrays	What is the basis for the “double wall piping” requirement? Is the Government’s fuel array at Goldberg double walled?	Double walled piping only required for underground (buried) piping due to environmental concerns. Goldberg "Fuel Array" is "NOT" double wall piping due to the piping being above ground. See PWS Changes 8JAN19;
	82		5.10.11 Aircraft Type	Will the Government share the projected number of each aircraft type (phase-in and phase-out) to be serviced over the next 7 years, so we can more accurately estimate the proper number of refueling FTEs, vehicles, and related equipment?	The aircraft flucuate, the projected numbers for FY20-21 are as follows based off current studentload requirements; AH-64-115; UH-60-135; CH-47-42; UH-72-229; TH-67 divesting to zero. This is a projection based on current requirements for student load and is subject to change.
	83		5.8.2 Vehicle	If all contractor vehicles meet all applicable DOT requirements, with service records and certifications maintained and available for Government inspection, why are fuel trucks limited to a five-year operational life? Eliminating the five-year operational life would significantly reduce the overall cost of equipment to the program.	Please see response to question 51 in set one.
	84		5.8.1 Basic Refuel Truck requirements	Due to the expected order and modification time of fuel trucks, will the customer allow a phased-in replacement schedule as trucks become available?	No, all fuel dispensing equipment must be in place and ready for operation at the end of the 120 day phase-in.
	85		5.7.19 Forward Area Refueling Point (FARP)	Will the Government provide the workload data, or projected workload for this requirement to enable this to be bid as FFP?	No prior or projected workload data available because this has not been used in the past and is only a contingency for the future; 5.7.19 Forward Area Refueling Point (FARP): The Contractor shall have the capability to establish up to two separate four point fuel only FARPs in the LFA. The Contractor may also be directed to provide refuel/defuel services at Molinelli Range in the event that the DLA Capitalized site is not operational for a period of time that will have an impact on training. This will be at the direction of the KO or COR.
	86		5.7.17 Metering of Refuel/Defuel transactions	Are the contractor furnished, temperature compensated meters only required on contractor furnished equipment?	No, as required to satisfy the PWS requirement. 5.7.17 Metering of Refuel/Defuel transactions: The Contractor shall ensure that all fuel sales and credits (issues and defuels) are metered with temperature compensated meters (contractor furnished) and recorded
	87		5.7.1 Refuel/Defuel Service Locations	Will the Government provide historic and projected workload for offerors to use to appropriately, and realistically, staff and equip for these changes?	Provided via Attachments 11, 12, 13
	88		1.5.11.3 Driver/System Operator	Can the government clarify the requirement of two years of refueling experience for the Driver/System Operator? Is this requirement for senior workers only?	Yes, for the senior member of a team or crew and the senior employee desingated as the Driver/Syterm Operator. Offerors may propose an OJT Type Program that satifies the requirement.
	89		1.2 Background	With the number of aircraft (and aircraft Mission Design Series) changing throughout the contract, will the Government provide the current and projected aircraft changes that drive changes in contractor staffing and equipment in this FFP contract? How will the Government provide the aircraft MDS and aircraft changes that increase and/or decrease the numbers in the solicitation?	See response to question 82.
	90		Validity Period	“Proposal validity period for 180 days from solicitation closing”, 17 January 2019, Volume III: Price Proposal; The last bullet states the prices in this offer will be held firm for 60 calendar days, Please clarify which validity period is correct.	See Amendment 03 to the RFP. The validity period of 180 days from solicitation closing is correct.
	91		CLIN 0006 (and OY X005)	Will the Government publish the current number of Air Force aircraft by Mission Design Series (MDS), which Basefield and Stagefields they use, and each MDS refueling times?	28-USAF TH-1; Currently, the Basefield is Cairns. The Stagefield vaires by training schedule.
	92		Usage Data	There is no usage data annotated for the Base-fields (Cairnes, Hanchey, Knox, Lowe, Shell) Could you please provide similar data as reported for the stage-fields for each Base-field?	See Attachment 15, Basefield Usage
	93		Operations Hours	Which Base-fields are required to be operational on weekends?	All base fields may be open on the weekends if lost training time requires their use. Regardless of lost training time, the Contractor shall be available on the weekends should maintenance efforts require.
	94		Usage Data	What does the “usage by issue period” data represent? I’ve tried to reconcile between stage-field usage and all refueling last year to no avail.	"usage by issue period" represents the number of days that the associetd stagefield was used for each sortie period either AM, N1, or PM.
	95		CTR & GFE Facilities	Operator and preventative maintenance requirements are ambiguous throughout the PWS as there are a mixture of CTR and GFE facilities and equipment. Is it correct to assume that operator maintenance is a responsibility of the CTR on both CTR and GFE facilities and equipment and preventative(recurring) maintenance is only required on CFE?	The Contractor is responsible for all operator-level and preventative maintenance on GFE facilities and equipment.
	96		Fuel Additive	Has the aviation fuel additive requirement been deleted?	Yes

	134		Previous Award	On 30 March 2018, the Government announced to offerors that an initial award of this contract was made to a company called B-3 Enterprises, LLC (B3). It appeared B-3 remained under contract for the same scope for a period of time until the Government announced to offerors (26 June 2018) that it was taking corrective action in response to a bid protest. Our questions are: Did the Government pay for the completion, partial completion, or work on any tanks, trucks or other equipment under the B-3 contract? If so, please describe the trucks, tanks or other equipment, portions thereof, or work completed or paid for under or related to the B-3 contract. Will those tanks, trucks and/or other equipment, portions thereof, or work completed or paid for be available, including as government-furnished equipment, to the awardee under this contract?	Yes, the Army paid the contractor' allowable terminatation contract cost in accordance with FAR 12.402. No equipment was purchased from B3 for the performance of this contract, because it was determined it was not in the Army's best interest. In addition, it is DOD's general policy not to furnish government equipment to contractors.
	135		PWS 1.5.8	Please confirm the Contractor provides staffing for DLA Capitalized Bulk Refuel Points. Also, please include the frequency of commercial tank truck deliveries of jet fuel to these bulk fuel storage areas.	No the contractor specifically does not man, operate or do maintenance on the DLA Capitalized Bulk Refuel Points, this makes the second question irrelevant.
	136		Ref. Para. 2.1	Is there any historical data on the fees for air permit applications?	Typically with regards to emergency electrical generators with diesel engines, ADEM issues a letter of non-applicability. This means that no permit is required; however, applicable state and federal air pollution regulations must still be followed. In the unlikely event a permit is required, the permitting fee is approximately $4,835.00. If multiple generators of the same type, size and for the same usage are required, they typically require only one permit. If additional permits are required, the fee is the same for each.
	137		PWS 5.2	Please confirm the FDSM is not responsible for changing out the elements at the capitalized sites.	Please see response to question 17 in set one
	138		PWS 5.7.9	Is the Contractor responsible for contracting disposal with an off-site vendor or does the Contractor schedule disposal through Government agencies? Who pays for the collection and disposition of contaminated fuel products?	No, the Contractor will monitor the amount of contaminated fuel in the Hanchey AAF off-spec fuel tank and will notify the LRC POL Section when the tank needs pumping (usually above 45 inches is sufficient). The LRC POL contact will notify the DPW Environmental Branch to schedule pumping by an off-site vendor. The cost of the pumping service (recycling of off-spec fuel) is provided by the Government. The Contractor does NOT pay for the disposition of the contaminated off-spec fuel.
	139		PWS 5.7.16	Provide the type of ATG system in use, i.e. Barton or ENRAF?	ENRAF
	140		PWS 5.7.17	Confirm the referenced fuel stands are those installed only on Contractor furnished fuel stands; our understanding is that the truck fuel stands at the capitalized storage areas have Government furnished temperature compensating meters. Also, is there a requirement for temperature compensating meters on Contractor provided trucks?	Temperature Compensated Meters (TCM) on receiving; fill stands not TCM (issued in gross); Yes, TCM are required, IAW 5.7.17 Metering of Refuel/Defuel transactions: The Contractor shall ensure that all fuel sales and credits (issues and defuels) are metered with temperature compensated meters (contractor furnished) and recorded. The Contractor shall provide meters for fuel stands. (CDRL 15)
	141		PWS 5.7.19	Does the Government provide any equipment for the four FARP fuel points? Our understanding was that the Contractor supported an existing FARP array with a truck. Please clarify.	No, the contractor will supply the capability to provide fuel only FARPs if needed IAW current standards. This is a contingency based need and not currently utilized. There is a FARP array at Mollinelli Range that is not under the PWS for this contract and when it is down for maintenance this contract refuels aircraft at the location with dispensing equipment but, it does not tie into the existing fuel array.
	142		PWS 5.8.10	Please clarify the reference for marking fuel vehicles. The paragraph references Mil Std 161, however this directive applies to storage systems versus vehicles.	Vehicles, 49 CFR - Transportation
	143		PWS 5.16.6	Please clarify the maximum height for grass as reference. The references show four (6) inches.	Please see response to Question 80 in set two
	144		PWS 5.16.20	Please clarify truck filters are funded by the Contractor and storage system filters are provided by the Government.	Funding for truck and storage system filters are the Contractor's responsibility
	145		pg. 55 of 103 para (8)	Please clarify when the names of key personnel, resumes and letters of commitment are due. Since the Contractor is not allowed to interview incumbent employees until the Phase-in period (para. 1.5.13), it will make it hard to provide this information in advance of contract award.	The names of key personnel, resumes and letters of commitment are due upon proposal submission. There is no prohibition to interviewing incumbent personnel.
	146		(no reference given)	Does the Contractor handle any fuel additives, for example +100?	No
	147		(no reference given)	Please confirm that there is not a Collective Bargaining Agreement for this location.	Please see response to question 47 in set one.
	148		Ref. Para. 1.5.10.3	Please provide any additional information on what the Government would recognize as an accredited institution as it relates to the qualifications of the Environmental/Health and Safety Manager.	Accredited colleges or DOD schools.
	149		Attach. 2	Please confirm if there is any lab equipment, i.e. Aqua Glo tester, provided for Contractor use?	All laboratory equipment shall be provided by the Contractor.
