| 1 | What was the award number of the previous Philadelphia A&E IDIQ | ||
| 2 | The Word document attachment, “SOW CIV Pgm AE IDC _final.docx,” mentions many additional services not included in the synopsis, such as electrical engineering, fire protection engineering, etc. Does our submission need to include qualifications for every service listed in this Word document or just the services listed in the synopsis? | Submission should address qualifications listed in the synopsis. | |
| 3 | On page 7 of the synopsis under Submission Requirements Excluded from the SF330 70 Page Limitation, ISRs and Commitment to Small Business are listed. As this contract is a Small Business Set Aside and these items are not referenced anywhere else in the synopsis,. are these items still required to be submitted with the response? | That section will be revised to remove ISRs and commitment to small business since they are not required for this solicitation. | Y |
| 4 | Is one 11 x 17 page acceptable for the organizational chart | Yes | |
| 5 | Confirm that firms' submittals will be evaluated strictly against the scope listed in the Synopsis under III. Selection Criteria A and NOT the scope of work provided in the Word file titled, "SOW_CIV_Pgm_AE_IDC__final.docx". | SF330s will be evaluated against criteria in the Synopsis, not against the SOW | |
| 6 | Confirm if Section II. Project Information in the synopsis will be part of the evaluation under Selection Criteria A. For example, Section II states that high voltage distribution may be included under this contract, yet there is no mention of electrical scope in Criteria A or an electrical engineer in Criteria B. | SF330s should be tailored to the criteria set forth in factors listed in the solicitation; in this example high voltage distribution and electrical engineer is not part of the evaluation criteria | |
| 7 | Confirm that relevant Section F projects completed outside the 7-year window will still be evaluated (with less consideration). | Projects may be completed outside the 7 year window and will receive less consideration. | |
