Q2: Can you tell me the approximate number of positions required?

A2: This is a performance based acquisition not "time and material" or "labor hour" contract. The current FTE mix is 2 case managers (1 dual hated as the site supervisor) and 10 administrative care coordinator/medical records technicians. There is no requirement for how many - your technical proposal should address how you will complete performance work statement and how you will fill positions and possible future vacancies with qualified, security clearance or able to obtain a security clearance personnel. Please be aware of the Nondisplacement of Qualified workers clause (52.222-17). This requirement will result in a Firm Fixed Price contract.

Q4: PWS clarification for paragraph 5.1.1 “The Government will provide training via VTC for eCase to the contractor. Contact Clinical Operations Branch, Chief Surgeon’s Office 30 days prior to anticipated award to schedule training.” How can the company schedule the training before find out it has won the award?
