Offeror Questions & USG Responses in support of Solicitation W91WFU-18-Q-0025 Round 1

11 September 2018

1. Our solution would not match the RFQ exactly, because our product has a metal frame that the tent attaches to. Functionally it is not a disadvantage, but would an offer with a metal frame be considered since it doesn’t match the characteristics in Exhibit 1 exactly?

Reference: Exhibit 1 – Salient Characteristics

USG Response – The requirement is for an inflatable frame. As a result of this question, Exhibit 1 – Salient Characteristics has been revised.

2. If the Metal Frame would be considered -- Exhibit 1 lists air pumps within item 1. Are these for the air frame, and if so, I would propose leaving those out of our proposal if that is acceptable.

Reference: Exhibit 1 – Salient Characteristics, Item #1

USG Response – A metal frame will not be considered. REF USG Response to Question 1.

3. If the Metal Frame would be considered -- Exhibit 1 lists an “entrance assembly using conductive Velcro”. We would propose our patented magnetic enclosure, which seals easier, stronger, and lasts longer than Velcro. Would this be an acceptable alternative?

Reference: Exhibit 1 – Salient Characteristics, Item #1

USG Response – A metal frame will not be considered. REF USG Response to Question 1.

4. Exhibit 1 Item 4 is a Shield Table Top Enclosure. What are the required dimensions of this item?

Reference: Exhibit 1 – Salient Characteristics, Item #4

USG Response – The required dimensions of this item are 2’x3’3’. As a result of this question, Exhibit 1 – Salient Characteristics has been revised.
