SUMMARY OF CHANGES

SECTION SF 1449 - CONTINUATION SHEET

The following have been added by full text:

AMENDMENT 4

Question 13.) Solicitation page 4 states this is a contract for “Non-Personal Service, covered under the Service Contract Act (SCA).”

Since this is a SCA contract and there are incumbent workers whom have first right of refusal for the positions, request deletion of the requirement for resumes and certifications as it is very unlikely a position will be offered to anyone other than the incumbent personnel.

Response: The awardee will be provided access to incumbent staff upon contract award. This requirement demonstrates capacity and understanding of the offeror to provide their own strategy to ensure an effective transition plan if a substitution is needed. If an incumbent declines the position, the proposed substition shall meet all of the qualifications within the PWS.

In addition, See Amendment 2 – the Government Response to Question 6.) herein included.

Offerors are encourage to provide a well thought out approach to ensure compliance with the requirements of this RFP. It is the offeror’s responsibility to understand what salaries are acceptable for each position. Compensation packages shall be designed to encourage the retention of qualified staff. Since the Government will evaluate the offeror’s plan in order to ensure that it reflects a sound management approach a good understanding of the contract requirement. Offerors should not focus on the predecessor contractor’s compensation package.

Confidential and competition sensitive information will not be provided. The awardee will be provided access to incumbent staff upon contract award. The awardee will have the opportunity to recruit and hire any incumbent staff being hired to support the new contact. See FAR 52.207-3

– Right of First Refusal of Employment (MAY 2006) and 52.222-17 – Nondisplacement of

Qualified Workers (MAY 2014) Section (2)(i) and for additional details. “The successor
