AMENDMENT PARTICULARS

A. SUMMARY OF SECTION CHANGES:

SECTION A – SOLICITATION/CONTRACT FORM (BLOCK #10) is corrected as follows:

The standard size code 100 has been added.

The set aside percentage 100.00% has been added.

The Acquisition Set Aside has changed from UNRESTRICTED TO SET ASIDE 100%

SMALL BUSINESS.

B. USACE RESPONSES TO CONTRACTOR INQUIRIES:

1. Page #1, item #10 says “This acquisition is Unrestricted” while page #3, item B says, “this acquisition is restricted to Small Business Concerns”.

a. Can you please clarify?

USACE RESPONSE #1: The USACE greatly appreciates this question and by way of this Amendment 0001 corrects Block 10 on Page 1 of the Solicitation document. Competition for this Acquisition is restricted to Small Businesses, which is consistent with the method of competition stated on Page 3 of the Solicitation document and in accordance with the Clause 52.219‐6, incorporated at Section I of the Solicitation. Additionally, in the FBO Notice itself, it states that competition is restricted to Small Businesses.

2. Page # 5, Bid Schedule starts with item # 0001, an HP CLJ 4700. Succeeding items for the 4700 only list three of the four Toner Cartridge colors and the same goes for item #2 starting on page 7.

a. Can you please clarify that these are the only colors being solicited?

USACE RESPONSE #2: Although there are only 3 of the 4 colors listed in the Bid Schedule, the USACE only requires the “3” items (colors) specified in the Bid Schedule. No fourth (additional) colors are being required by this acquisition.
