QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
16 June 2026
1. The solicitation states that the flags all be double sided with an inner liner. That works for most flags; however, the Texas flag is traditionally fully sewn and is produced as a single reverse. The design doesn’t need to be double sided. Would you rather have a fully sewn normal Texas flag or a printed double sided Texas flag? Double sided with an inner liner.
2. The Virginia state flag is prescribed to have white fringe on the fly-end only. Do you want this flag made properly, or do you want gold/yellow fringe on all 3 sides? Yellow fringe on all 3 sides.
3. The District of Columbia is supposed to have red fringe. So same question as #2 for this flag. Yellow fringe on all 3 sides.
4. Should the flags be made from woven nylon or polyester knit? Polyester knit
5. SOW paragraph 3 states the vendor shall provide a sample, what is the sample of? The sample requirement has been removed.

We would like to kindly confirm whether quotes from businesses that are not WOSB-certified would be considered for this solicitation, or if award eligibility is strictly limited to certified WOSB firms only. Block 10 of the solicitation indicates the requirements is 100% set aside for small business, not just women owned small business.
Any small business who is otherwise eligible will be considered for the award.
6. Does your office accept direct email submissions for formal quotes from small businesses, or if we must submit strictly through the SAM.gov portal?
