About this file

This is Amendment 0001 to solicitation W912JD25QA007 for Maine Army National Guard musical instruments, issued on March 4, 2025 using Standard Form 30. The amendment provides responses to contractor questions and makes a specification change to CLIN 0002, updating the C.G. Conn 1FG Vintage One Flugelhorn bell material requirement from rose brass to gold brass.

The amendment clarifies that the solicitation due date remains March 13, 2025 at 3:00 PM EST. Other clarifications include: a semi-rigid leather case is acceptable for the Bach trumpet instead of a hard case; specified mouthpieces in the salient characteristics are required and can be quoted separately from the instruments' standard mouthpieces; and part numbers are not required as the government is using brand names with associated characteristics. The items being procured are: 1 Buffet Crampon R13 Greenline Professional Bb Clarinet, 2 C.G. Conn 1FG Vintage One Flugelhorns, 1 C.G. Conn 40K BBb Sousaphone, and 1 Bach 190L65GV Stradivarius Professional Bb Trumpet.

SUMMARY OF CHANGES

Solicitation/Contract Form Continuation

The following changes have been made:

Miscellaneous text in this section has been added to:

AMENDMENT 0001

The solicitation is amended, the hour and date specified for receipt of offer is not extended.

The due date remains unchanged: Thursday, 13 March 2025 at 3pm EST.

Questions will not be extended.

The Request for Quote (RFQ) W912JD25QA007 is hereby amended as follows:

The purpose of this amendment is to provide a response and clarify questions raised by various contractors.

Question 1: Pertaining to item 002, C.G. Conn Flugelhorn 1FG, the request is for a Rose Brass Bell. In research, we have found that this instrument either comes with a

Gold Brass Bell or Silver Plate; we cannot locate a Rose Brass Bell. Please advise if the Gold Brass Bell is acceptable.

Response: A gold brass bell is acceptable.

Question 2: t type of case is acceptable? Concerning item 0004, Bach Trumpet, the solicitation requests a "Case: Bach" but the list of Salient Characteristics Wha requests "Case/Bag: Standard Bach Hard Case". The instrument comes in a semi-ridged case with a leather cover for professional instruments; if an ABS hard-shell case is required (this option is issued with student instruments) it will be an additional item.

Response: The semi - ridged case with a leather cover for the trumpet would be acceptable.

Question 3: The MEARNG Musical Instruments mouth pieces requested in the proposal document: MEARNG+Band+Instruments+-+Salient+Characteristics are NOT the mouth pieces that come with instruments. Can the government purchase a mouthpiece in addition to the instrument or does the government want the mouthpiece that comes with the instrument?

Response: The specified mouthpieces in the salient characteristics are required. The government will accept a quote for instrument that comes with a standard mouthpiece along with a separate deliverable that is the requested mouthpiece.

Question 4: Can you provide the P/N to all four (4) Units:

1 EA - Buffet Crampon R13 Greenline Professional Bb Clarinet

2 EA - C.G. Conn 1FG Vintage One Flugelhorn

1 EA - C.G. Conn 40K BBb Sousaphone

1 EA - Bach 190L65GV Stradivarius Professional Bb Trumpet

Response: We are just utilizing the brand names for the items with the associated characteristics. It appears our requiring activity misinterpreted a characteristic with the rose brass bell, and we have clarified with question 1: A gold brass bell is acceptable.

"Quoters are advised that they are responsible for acknowledging any amendments to the solicitation. Failure to acknowledge an amendment may result in your offer being considered unacceptable.

Please complete blocks 30a., 30b., and 30c. on the SF30.
