| Page # | Section, Paragraph, or Attachment | Question/Comment/Clarification | Government Answers | |
| Incumbent & follow-on status: | ||||
| Please confirm whether this requirement is a follow-on to an existing contract. If so, can you provide the incumbent contractor’s name, contract / task-order number, current period of performance, and the Government’s record of average annual FTEs deployed. | The incumbent contractor for these services is The Siegel Group, LLC under contract number 47QFWA23C0009. |
The USG will not dictate how many personnel must be hired to support this effort. The number of employees required heavily depends on the Contractor's technical approach to servicing the requirement.
| Government level-of-effort estimate: | |||
| Does the Government have an internal estimate of the annual labor hours or FTEs—by labor category—that offerors should use for pricing? If available, please furnish that estimate (or the historical quantities reported in CMRA). | The USG will not dictate how many personnel must be hired to support this effort. The number of employees required heavily depends on the Contractor's technical approach to servicing the requirement. | ||
| PWS 1.4.9 | Contract / Project Manager position: |
PWS 1.4.9 requires a Contract Manager (and alternate) “with full authority to act.” Is the Government expecting a dedicated full-time on-site Project Manager?
| Workload currency & projection: | |||
| Technical Exhibit 3 provides FY-24 historical counts. Are any significant workload changes anticipated for the base period or option years (e.g., additional unit activations or draw-downs)? If yes, is it possible to supply the projected volumes? | The USG does not have the historical data to answer this question. | ||
| PWS 1.4.3 | Shift schedule flexibility: |
PWS 1.4.3 allows the Government to change hours from 0800-1630 to 0630-1430 with one-week notice.Are there any circumstances under which evening, night, or weekend work could be ordered?Should offerors include overtime contingencies in their pricing?
| PWS 1.4.3 | Travel CLIN scope: | ||
| PWS 1.4.3 references “up to two trips per month” to Stockton, Los Alamitos, and Tracy, reimbursable under the JTR. Will travel be a separate cost-reimbursable CLIN, or should all anticipated travel costs be fully burdened into the firm-fixed-price service CLINs? | a) Via solicitation amendement, a travel CLIN will be included for each contract year to allow for companies to account travel costs. |
b) Historical data does not exist.
Wage Determination applicability:
The solicitation cites WD 2015-5643 (San Luis Obispo County). Because Camp Roberts straddles the San Luis Obispo / Monterey county line, please confirm that WD 2015-5643 is the correct and sole wage determination for all on-site labor.
Government-furnished IT & communications:
Besides the material-handling equipment listed in PWS 3.4, will the Government furnish desktop/laptop computers, network access, office software, and phones? If not, should contractors price those items?
PWS 1.4.5.1 Security / access vetting:
PWS 1.4.5.1 mentions Tier 1 background investigations and CAC issuance. Please clarify: Are fingerprinting and NAC-I checks required? What is the typical processing time for new personnel? Will the Government sponsor necessary clearances?
| CMRA (Service Contract Reporting) CLINs: CLIN 0002/1002/etc. are titled “CMRA Man-Hours Reporting.” Should offerors propose a fixed dollar amount (e.g., $0 or $100) as a placeholder, or does the Government have an estimated labor-hour value to be priced? | The CMRA (Service Contract Reporting) CLIN is a non-priced CLIN. The total amount for this CLIN will be $0. |
| Forklift / MHE certification: |
Will the Government provide forklift and other MHE safety training on site, or must personnel arrive already certified?
Evaluation clarifications:
The addendum to FAR 52.212-2 describes an LPTA process (technical acceptability rated pass/fail). Are there any sub-factors—such as past performance or staffing approach—that will be weighted beyond acceptability prior to price evaluation?
Government points of contact:
Where will COR be located, and what are the expected daily/weekly interaction protocols with the contractor’s on-site manager?
Contractor Travel:
The Contractor shall travel to Stockton, Los Alamitos and Tracy no more than twice per month during the performance of this contract…” and “the contractor will be authorized travel expenses consistent with the substantive provisions of the Joint Travel Regulation (JTR) and the limitation of funds specified in this contract.
| a) | Will the Government add a separate “cost” Travel CLIN for travel estimates? | |
| b) | Will the Government provide a “Plug” number (not to exceed) for travel? | |
| Incumbent Contractor: | ||
| Is there any incumbent/recompete or this is a brand-new project? If yes, could you please provide us with their award number or even if the customer bought similar services in the past. | The incumbent contractor for these services is The Siegel Group, LLC under contract number 47QFWA23C0009. |
