SUMMARY OF CHANGES

Solicitation/Contract Form Continuation

The following changes have been made:

Miscellaneous text in this section has been added to:

REQUEST FOR INFORMATION:

Question 1: Please confirm whether the contractor is expected to mobilize automatically once on-site snowfall exceeds two inches or only after notification or authorization from the Technical Point of Contact. Please also confirm the required or recommended service-start and completion timeframes for each location.

Response 1: The Contractor is required to commence snow removal services as indicated in the Performance Work Statement after accumulation of two (2) inches of snow. Refer to the revised Performance Work Statement for start and completion timeframes.

Question 2: During a single storm, must the Technical Point of Contact authorize each intermediate plowing service before it is performed, or is the contractor expected to perform additional services automatically as accumulation reaches the stated tiers? If prior authorization is not required, may each completed service be invoiced based on the final documented storm total within the applicable maximum tier? Please also confirm whether shoveling performed with each intermediate plowing service is separately billable and subject to the same storm-tier limits.

Response 2: IV Service Requirements, 1.b. indicates the maximum number of services that the Government will compensate the Contractor for based on the storm total. The Contractor shall not automatically invoice for the maximum number of services. As required by the Performance Work Statement, the Contractor is required to notify the Technical Point of Contact within 24 hours of completion of on-site services. The Contractor shall only be compensated for the total number of services actually performed, for instance, if only one service was completed for a storm that totaled 7", the Contractor would only be compensated for one service, not two. Please refer to the revised Performance Work Statement for additional information. Shoveling is required with each plow service. Shoveling will be compensated as specified for plowing in this response.

Question 3: Are OSHA Certifications required?

W912WJ26QA1330001

Response 3: OSHA certifications are not required, however, all work shall be completed in accordance with OSHA requirements.

iv. Snow may not be placed against any building or be piled in front of garage bays, doorways, gates, or other access points.

c. Task 3: Sanding and Salting. The contractor shall sand plowed surfaces and shoveled areas as needed or as directed by the Technical Point of Contact.
