AMENDMENT 0003

Questions and Answers:

Question #1: Does the government want the contractor to include everything in the specification in our proposals for both RFP’s. If yes, the government will be purchasing everything in section 2.1 twice. If the government does not want the contractors to provide everything in this section in both proposals, please provide guidance on which RFP you want us to provide this equipment.

Answer #1: The Government requires all items listed in Section 2. Equipment Specifications. Section 2.1 NDI Area, Table 1 NDI Area New Equipment List has been revised to remove the Solvent Booths (2.1.9.) and update the Workbecnch size from 36”x96” to 36”x60.” The updated SOW is included in solicitation amendment 0003.

Question #2: The specifications for the spot inspection area in sections 2.3.1 through 2.3.3 are also the same in both RFP’s. Does the government want the contractor to include everything in these specifications in our proposals for both RFP’s. If yes, the government will be purchasing everything in section 2.3.1 through 2.3.3 twice. If the government does not want the contractors to provide everything in this section in both proposals, please provide guidance on which RFP you want us to provide this equipment.

Answer #2: The Government has determined that the Spot Inspection Area is no longer required. The SOW has been updated to remove Section 2.3 Spot Inspection Area in its entirety. The updated SOW is included in solicitation amendment 0003.

Question #3: Also, no spot inspection area is identified on the floorplan drawings. Please identify the location of the spot inspection area on the floorplan including the location of the specified Jib Booms, Workbenches, and Worktables.

Answer #3: The Government has determined that the Spot Inspection Area is no longer required. The SOW has been updated to remove Section 2.3 Spot Inspection Area in its entirety. The updated SOW is included in solicitation amendment 0003.

Question #4: The floor layout drawing includes some workbenches that are different sizes than those specified in in the RFP. Which document takes precedence? The RFP or the floorplan?

Answer #4: The sizes in the SOW, which is included in the RFP, are the correct sizes. Section 2.1.10. Workbench has been changed from 36”x96” to 36”x60.” The SOW has been updated to revise Table 1: NDI Area New Equipment List and Section 2.1.10. Workbench. The updated SOW is included in solicitation amendment 0003.

Question #5: Section 2.1.9 are the specifications for solvent booths. The floorplan for the NDI area does not show any solvent booths. How many solvent booths do you want us to provide for each RFP and where are they located?

Answer #5: The Government has determined that the Solvent Booths are no longer required. The SOW has been updated to remove Section 2.1.9 Solvent Booths in its entirety. The updated SOW is included in solicitation amendment 0003.
