QUESTION 4: If we provide the consumables, do we invoice for them at the end of the month?

RESPONSE 4: Your cost for consumable should be accounted for in your unit pricing in the bid schedule for each line item. Invoices shall match the pricing schedule in the bid schedule based on actual services performed.

QUESTION 5: Will only one vendor be selected for all 6 locations in Western Mass?

W912WJ24Q0076

RESPONSE 5: Yes, if the Government awards this solicitation, only one contractor will be awarded this contract for all 6 locations in Western Massachusetts.

QUESTION 6: What is the current total monthly cleaning invoice cost for these six locations?

RESPONSE 6: The Government will not provide current total monthly cleaning invoice costs.

QUESTION 7: Are there any other line item expenses on the invoices other than cleaning on the monthly invoices?

RESPONSE 7: Please refer to the line items in the bid schedule and Performance Work Statement and include all costs in your pricing when submitted unit prices per each line item.

QUESTION 8: Are there specific requirements for past performance?

RESPONSE 8: No there are not specific requirements for past performance.

QUESTION 9: Can I schedule a site visit to these locations?

RESPONSE 9: A schedule of site visit dates with a range of time of availability for site visits for interested vendors has been provided in the revised Performance Work Statement. No other site visit dates or times will be permitted.

QUESTION 10: Due to weather constraints, would the buildings be opened, or closed for cleaning? By weather constraints, I mean, when there is a snowstorm, for instance, and the schools are closed.

RESPONSE 10: Office closures due to inclement weather are at the discretion of the individual office's on-site staff who by courtesy should notify cleaning staff and/or TPOC that no one will be in office that day. TPOC will pass on the message to contract holder if they receive notification. Should a cleaner feel unsafe to commute to a location on a scheduled service date due to weather, Contactors are to notify the TPOC prior to that day’s scheduled visit start time to request a temporary change in schedule. If unable to provide an alternative service date within the same week on a business day, there are no make-up days. Procedure on if a cleaner reports to a location and is unable to access after 30 minutes of scheduled service start time, is defined in the Performance Work Statement in Sections 3. Schedule and 17. Payment.
