Question: Please confirm whether the $5 million FFP amount is strictly a Government-provided price plug for evaluation, and state how actual FFP task orders will be priced and funded after award. Please also clarify whether the amount includes labor, materials, ODCs, subcontractor effort, and profit.

Government Response: The $5 million FFP amount is provided strictly as a price plug for evaluation purposes.

The FFP amount encompasses all costs associated with an FFP order. FFP task orders will be awarded for regular and recurring services. Historical pricing and T&M rates will be used to determine fair and reasonable pricing for FFP task orders.

Question 32

Question: Please identify the applicable wage determination(s) or Department of Labor identifier(s), and map each applicable labor category to its required wage determination. Section L states that wage-determination identifiers are provided separately; however, no separate wage-determination attachment appears in the attachment list.

Government Response: The applicable wage determination is WD #2015-4265. Wage determination will be uploaded with solicitation.

Question 33

Question: Please clarify how ODCs, repair parts, materials, tooling, and travel will be priced, authorized, and invoiced under the hybrid contract.

Government Response: Computers and monitors will be provided only for direct support of the Performance Work Statement.

Question 42

Question: Please issue a single reconciled CDRL/Technical Exhibit B deliverables schedule. The PWS Technical Exhibit B, CDRL information attachment, and other PWS references appear to prescribe overlapping but not fully aligned deliverables, formats, recipients, and submission methods. The amendment should identify every deliverable, governing CDRL number, due date, required format, and Government recipient.

Government Response: The Performance Work Statement has been updated.

Question 43

Question: Please clarify whether CDRL_INFO.pdf is an incorporated, binding contract attachment or working/draft information. It includes explanatory “WHY” narrative and a “PWS Updates” section, which may indicate proposed revisions rather than final contract language. If binding, please incorporate the stated PWS changes into the PWS and align all cross-references.

Government Response: The referenced “WHY” and “PWS Updates” language does not appear in the current version of the Performance Work Statement. CDRL_INFO.pdf was a working/draft informational document.

Question 45

Question: Please clarify the correction standards for QASP performance measures and specify whether the correction timeframes apply per occurrence, monthly assessment period, deliverable, employee, or task order.

For example, the QASP uses multiple corrective-action standards, including 30 days after submission, 30 days after a personnel request, and 60 days after employee start date.

Government Response: The corrective-action standard applies to each occurrence.

Question 46

Question: Please correct or clarify the QASP cross-references for GFP accountability and any other inaccurate PWS citations. The QASP references PWS §3.4.3 for GFP accountability, while the available PWS excerpt identifies equipment and inventories under §3.4.1.

Government Response: The QASP cross-reference has been updated.

Question 47

Question: Please clarify the apparent inconsistency in proposal file-format instructions. Section L initially permits Volume I and Volume II in searchable PDF or MS Word, but later states that each proposal volume must be submitted as a separate read-only PDF. Please confirm the required final-submission format for each volume.

Government Response: The proposal file-format instructions will be clarified in the final solicitation. Volumes shall be submitted as separate read-only PDF files unless otherwise specified.

Question 48

Question: Please confirm the Government’s anticipated schedule for posting responses to questions and issuing any amendment. This is particularly important because the solicitation indicates that proposals are due 06 November 2026 at 10:00 AM local time.

Government Response: Draft solicitation Q&A will be posted on 30 October 2026. The solicitation will be posted on 2 November 2026.

Question 50

Question: Please confirm whether all 45 calendar days of phase-in and phase-out are separately priced under CLINs 0001 and 0006, respectively, and whether the Government expects full core staffing during those periods.

The solicitation describes phase-in and phase-out as 45 calendar days, but Section F displays one-month quantities.

Government Response: CLIN 0001 and CLIN 0006 are for phase-in and phase-out, respectively. The Government does not expect full core staffing during those periods.

Question 51

Question: Please identify the Government-provided template and acceptance criteria for the required phase-in plan, phase-out plan, and any transition-related status reporting. The PWS requires procedures for phase-in and phase-out but does not, in the excerpts reviewed, establish a discrete deliverable or approval process.

Government Response: Per Performance Work Statement paragraph 1.20, the contractor shall develop a phase-in plan that begins after contract award and is completed within 45 calendar days.

Government Response: FAR clause 52.212-4 has been added.

Question 57

Question: Reference to Standard Form 33 (SF33) is made on p48 when the draft solicitation was issued on Standard Form 1449 (SF1449). Will the Government confirm this is a FAR Part 12 contract and a SF1449 will be utilized? If so, will the Government please change the reference from SF33 to SF1449 on page 39 in Section 1.1.2.B and on page 48 in two spots?

Government Response: The Past Performance Questionnaire will be provided at solicitation release.

Question 62

Question: This paragraph states, "References for Past Performance should be shall be listed on the Contract References Form." This form was not included with the Draft solicitation. Will the Government provide this form with the final solicitation?

Government Response: The Contract References Form has been discontinued. Offerors shall provide a list of references on the last page of the Past Performance volume.

Question 63

Question: In reviewing both the PWS and the CDRL document in the Draft Solicitation, it seems that some of the CDRLs do not line up with what is in the PWS. For example, CDRL A002 is listed in the CDRL document as Key Personnel resumes. However, in the PWS, in Paragraph 1.5.1.1 it lists CDRL A002 but it is for alerting the COR of potential issues that might affect performance. Will the Government please review CDRL document and the PWS and ensure that the references match where appropriate?

Government Response: The CDRL document provided with the draft solicitation was a list of anticipated CDRLs. The requiring activity has since reduced the requirement to three CDRLs, which will be available on SAM.gov.

Question 64

Question: Will the Government be providing the plug ODC numbers for the ODC Detail tab? The instructions state that an amount is provided and the proposer must fill in the burden column only. The instructions also say to fill in the green shaded cells, but there are no green shaded cells in that tab. The indirect column is shaded grey.

Government Response: The ODC tab has been updated with the Government-provided amounts.

Question 65

Question: Why is there reference to updating the PWS 1.27 in CDRL document and why isn't the PWS updated with this information?

Government Response: The referenced “PWS 1.27” update does not appear in the current CDRL documents.

The Performance Work Statement and CDRLs have been aligned.

Question 66

Question: Will the Government provide the actual CDRLs?

Government Response: The Government will provide the CDRLs at the time of solicitation release.

Question 67

Question: Content Requirement para states: "Each file of the proposal shall consist of a Table of Contents, Summary Section, and the Narrative discussion." Do the Volume III Pricing Spreadsheet (Attach D) and Volume IV require these elements?

Government Response: A note has been added clarifying that Volume III (Pricing) will not require a table of contents.

Question 68

Question: The solicitation has a period of performance of 9 December 2026 - 8 December 2031 in the Ordering Clause 52.216-18 on Page 23. That includes the 45 day Phase-in and the 45 day Phase-out. The BOE Attachment D has different dates (7 December 2026 - 6 December 2031. Section F of the solicitation also has different dates. We believe that the dates for CLIN 0002 should be 21 January 2027 - 20 January 2032. The 45-day Phase-in is prior to the 5 year period of performance and the 45-day Phase-out would be the last 45 days of the actual work period of performance. Therefore, CLIN 0001 for Phase-in would be 9 December 2026 - 20 January 2027 (Block states 1 Month but should be changed to 45 days), CLINs 0002-0006 would be 21 January 2027 - 20 January 2032, and CLIN 0007 would be 9 December 2031 - 20 January 2032 (Block states 1 Month but should be changed to 45 days), as mostly shown in Section F. We believe the dates in Section F for CLINs 0002- 0006 need to be changed to 21 January 2027 - 20 January 2031 and the dates in the pricing schedule need to be corrected accordingingly. Will the Government please review this and make the necessary changes please?

W91CRB-27-R-A002 – Questions and Answers (Final) | Page 10 of 10

Government Response: The period of performance is 09 December 2026 through 08 December 2031. This maintains a five-year period of performance inclusive of the 45-day phase-in period.

END OF DOCUMENT
