Ask the Government to confirm whether this is a single-award or multiple-award IDIQ, and provide the guaranteed minimum, contract ceiling, and estimated annual ordering value. The solicitation includes global shipping services with a 5-year base plus 6-month option period, but the ordering value and award structure are not clear.

Q: What is the guaranteed minimum, overall contract ceiling, and estimated annual task-order value for this IDIQ? The solicitation includes order limitation language, but what is the expected volume and ceiling information to price carrier capacity and international logistics support accurately.

Q: IDIQ guaranteed minimum. What is the guaranteed minimum order quantity or value for the base IDIQ contract?

Q: Can the Government confirm whether the $500K ceiling applies per individual task order or across the entire 5.5-year IDIQ period?

A: In Accordance with FAR 52.216-19, the IDIQ ceiling is anticipated to be $2.75M for a 5-year ordering period. The IDIQ $100.00 guaranteed minimum will be awarded as the first task order to the awardee, at the time of the IDIQ award, and additional task orders will be awarded as needed. The task order value of $500,000.00 for a single or combination of task orders within 30-days for the IDIQ 5-year ordering period.

4. Reference: Volume II Price Proposal Instructions Question: The solicitation instructs offerors to include all information related to the Sample Task Order in Volume II. Please confirm whether the Government requires pricing only for the Sample Task Order or whether pricing is also required for CLINs 0001, 0002, and 0003 of the base IDIQ contract.

36. Q: Pricing method is unclear for a global FFP shipping requirement. The CLIN structure lists the work as 1 Job, but the PWS includes small parcels, pallets, oversized items over 1,000 pounds, air freight, sea freight, expedited freight, CONUS, OCONUS, and possible hazardous/radiological shipments. Should pricing be by lane, mode, weight break, shipment type, accessorial schedule, sample task order, or task-order quote?

A: The Volume II Price Proposal is for the Sample Task Order PWS. The Contractor will provide a price proposal for each individual task orders in accordance with the individual task order PWS. For proposal purposes, the Contractor will provide pricing for Attachment 3 – Sample Task Order PWS. Attachment 1 - Solicitation is the value contract structure for the IDIQ.

CLIN 0001 - $2,250,00.00

CLIN 0002 - $250,000.00

CLIN 0003 - NSP

5. Q: Can the Government provide historical or estimated shipment data, including annual shipment count, common lanes, origin/destination pairs, shipment weights, dimensions, container types, modes used, and percentage of CONUS vs. OCONUS shipments? PWS identifies parcels from under one pound to palletized and oversized shipments over 1,000 pounds, including CONUS and OCONUS locations.

Q: Is it possible to disclose any historical shipping data (volumes, modes)?

Q: Is it possible to disclose the (historical) average annual spending or budget average(s) for the shipping & logistics activity for this program?

Q: Historical shipment volume is missing. Please provide prior or estimated shipment counts by year, common origin/destination pairs, mode split, weights, dimensions, container types, expedited shipments, and OCONUS percentage.

A: The Government awarded approximately $200K in delivery orders under W91ZLK- 21-D-0002. Most recent shipments have been moving shippers of masks and boots between Aberdeen Proving Ground and field operation sites at Redstone Arsenal, Pine Bluff Arsenal, and Pueblo Chemical Depot. It’s also been used to ship Conex boxes to and from Australia and the Solomon Islands for The U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command - Chemical Biological Center (DEVCOM-CBC) Chemical Biological Applications & Risk Reduction (CBARR) Business Unit.

The sample task order is for The U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command - Chemical Biological Center (DEVCOM-CBC) Chemical Biological Applications & Risk Reduction (CBARR) Business Unit for proposal purposes; however, Army Contracting Command can award task orders for the shipping services of other units and tenants of Aberdeen Proving Ground against the awarded IDIQ.

6. Q: For OCONUS shipments, please confirm whether the Contractor is responsible for customs brokerage, export/import filings, duties, taxes, port fees, quarantine inspections, demurrage, detention, and Status of Forces Agreement-related processing.

PWS requires air/expedited delivery within 10 business days and sea freight within 60 business days.

Q: Delivery timelines need exclusions from uncontrollable delays. PWS requires air/expedited delivery within 10 business days and sea freight within 60 business days. Are customs delays, port congestion, vessel schedules, weather, force majeure, Government-caused delays, incomplete documentation, destination closures, or security-access delays excluded from Contractor performance failures?

A: Transit-time standards exclude customs delays, port congestion, weather events, Government-caused delays, incomplete documents, destination closures, or access delays outside the Contractor’s control.

11. Q: Please clarify Contractor liability for loss or damage after pickup, including required insurance levels, declared-value procedures, claim documentation, and whether liability differs for Government-packaged freight, high-value cargo, hazardous material, or Government-owned containers. The PWS makes the Contractor responsible for loss or damage after pickup and before delivery.

Q: Liability and insurance requirements need clarification. The PWS states the Contractor is responsible for loss or damage after pickup and before delivery.

Please advise on required cargo insurance levels, declared value process, claim procedures, liability limits, and whether liability differs for Government-packaged cargo, high-value cargo, hazmat, radiological items, or Government-owned containers.

A: The Contractor is responsible for any loss or damage after pickup. The shipment values will be determined at the task order level.

12. Q: Will each task order include complete shipment-level information, including pickup/delivery contacts, facility access requirements, cargo description, value, dimensions, weight, packaging condition, mode, delivery deadline, special handling needs, and invoicing instructions?

23. Q: SubContractor Eligibility – Foreign Ownership. Given the inclusion of DFARS 252.225-7048 (Export-Controlled Items) and DFARS 252.204-7012 (Safeguarding Covered Defense Information and Cyber Incident Reporting), please confirm whether a foreign-owned firm may participate as a subContractor under a domestically owned prime Contractor for this requirement, and whether any restrictions would apply to a subContractor's access to export-controlled items or covered defense information.

A: A foreign-owned subContractor can be used, but only if the prime ensures full compliance with ITAR/EAR export-control rules and DFARS 252.204-7012 cybersecurity requirements. This means:

• According to 252.225-7048, the subContractor may not access export-controlled items unless it is legally authorized (e.g., has an ITAR license, Technical Assistance Agreement, or EAR authorization).

• The subContractor may not access Covered Defense Information (CDI) unless it can meet DFARS 252.204-7012 requirements, including NIST SP 800-171 compliance and U.S.-based information-system safeguards.

• The prime must flow down both clauses to the subContractor. DFARS 252.225-7048 explicitly requires this.

• FAR 9.405-2 — Subcontractors must not be suspended/debarred

• DFARS 252.209-7004 — Subcontractors must not be owned/controlled by a government of a state sponsor of terrorism

• DFARS 252.225-7048 — Subcontractors must comply with ITAR/EAR

24. Q: Reference: FAR 52.219-9, Small Business Subcontracting Plan. The solicitation incorporates FAR 52.219-9, Small Business Subcontracting Plan;

however, the proposal instructions do not identify a subcontracting plan as a required proposal submission. For offerors that are other than small under NAICS 488510, please confirm whether a Small Business Subcontracting Plan is required with the initial proposal or whether it will be requested prior to contract award.

A. Yes, if the Contractor anticipates using a subcontractor, they will need to include a Subcontracting Plan.

25. Q: For the "three years of recent experience" requirement, does the Government consider freight transportation services provided directly to a DOD prime Contractor (e.g., Crowley Government Services) as qualifying prime experience?

Q: Reference, Volume 1, Factor 2 states that recent experience includes shipping services performed within the previous three years and references previous

Government contracts. May offerors also submit relevant commercial experience demonstrating hazardous material shipments, oversized cargo, palletized freight, and CONUS/OCONUS transportation, or will the Government evaluate only previous Government contract experience?

A. In accordance with the Combined Synopsis Solicitation, page #3, Factor 2, Experience. The Contractor shall demonstrate the ability to ship parcels to include small boxes that are under a pound, large shipments on a pallet, and oversized items exceeding 1,000 pounds, and hazardous materials while meeting the scheduled arrivals IAW the Sample Task Order PWS. To be rated as acceptable, the offeror must provide documentation to demonstrate and contract information to verify experience is within scope, relevant, and recent. Relevant contracts are similar to the solicited contracts in scope, size, and/or complexity. Scope relevancy means contracts demonstrating past performance in shipping services for equipment and materials moving between CONUS and OCONUS sites to include small boxes that are under a pound, large shipments on a pallet, and oversized items exceeding 1,000 pounds with some parcels containing hazardous material shipments (i.e. items with radiological sources, industrial chemicals). Recent means completed within three (3) years of this solicitation. Relevant contracts are similar to the solicited contracts in scope, size, and/or complexity. Scope relevancy means contracts demonstrating past performance in XXXXX (shipping services for equipment and materials moving between CONUS and OCONUS sites to include small boxes that are under a pound, large shipments on a pallet, and oversized items exceeding 1,000 pounds with Some parcels may contain hazardous material shipments (i.e. items with radiological sources, industrial chemicals). Recent means contracts at least 75% physically completed within three (3) years of this solicitation.

26. Q: Will the Government accept CONUS and OCONUS experience demonstrated across separate contracts, or must a single contract demonstrate both?

A: CONUS and OCONUS past experiences don’t need to be within the same contract.

27. Q: What is the pickup address (on base?) at origin and will you require service to collect straight from facility to stuff containers, or the goods will be delivered to port for stuffing, and we are just responsible for Port service + ocean freight?

Q: PWS 3.1 states, “Locations where parcels shall be picked up from and delivered to include, but are not limited to the following”. a. Will all origin and destination locations will be provided?

b. If yes to above, will a Pricing Template be provided?

c. Will some of the U.S. origins and destinations be included in one routing which would signal a requirement for a U.S. domestic move?

A: In most cases, the shipment will be picked up at one military location and delivered to another military location. Locations will be specified in the individual task orders. Many of the task orders are anticipated to be domestic moves. In accordance with the IDIQ PWS paragraph 3.1 Locations where parcels shall be picked up from and delivered to include, but are not limited to the following:

• Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD

• Pine Bluff Arsenal, AR

• Holloman Air Force Base, NM

• Schofield Barracks Army Base, Oahu, Hawaii

c. Does the Government expect the CONEX box to be returned?

d. Which entity certifies the CONEX for carriage?

e. Will materiel handling equipment (MHE) be available at origin and destination?

f. Example: will the CONEX boxes be on the ground at time of pick-up and, if so, will MHE be available for load onto the trailer?

A: In accordance with the IDIQ PWS 3.1.1, the question sections a-d statements are for capability of the IDIQ with specified shipping requests in the individual task orders. Not all statements apply to every task order. In accordance with the Combined Synopsis/Solicitation Factor 1 - Technical Approach: The offeror’s proposal shall adequately describe and present a clear understanding of the requirements IAW the IDIQ PWS and Sample Task Order Performance Work Statement (PWS). To be rated as acceptable, offerors must provide documentation that demonstrates the offeror’s approach to meeting all the shipping requirements specified in the IDIQ and Sample Task Order PWS. For the Sample Task Order PWS:

a. The CONEX box is owned by the Government.

b. The CONEX is taking a one-way trip to APG.

c. The Government certifies the CONEX for carriage.

d. The Government will have MHE and an operator at origin and destination.

29. Q: When does the two-business-day pickup requirement begin: at task-order issuance, after Government packaging is complete, after shipment documents are provided, or after installation/access coordination is approved? PWS states parcels must be picked up within two business days and that the Government packages parcels prior to pick up.

Q: The two-business-day pickup requirement needs a clear start point. Does the pickup clock begin at task-order award, Government freight-ready notice, document availability, completion of packaging, access approval, or confirmed pickup appointment? This matters because the Government packages the freight, and the sample task order shows at least one pickup location is not staffed full-time.

A: The two-business-day pickup requirement begins after the Government provides shipment documents to the Contractor.

30. Q: Please discuss the program expectations and requirements for U.S. Export Compliance (ITAR, Commerce Licensing & U.S. Import Licensing). What involvement will any ITAR and licensable shipments have in this program and contract?

A: The Government expects the Contractor to fully comply with all applicable U.S.

export and import control laws and regulations, including the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) and the Export Administration Regulations (EAR). However, because the scope of this IDIQ is limited to shipping cargo solely to and from U.S.

Government entities, personnel, and active operational field locations (i.e., shipments to/from the Government itself), the Government anticipates that the vast majority of ITAR-controlled or licensable shipments under this contract will qualify for U.S.

Government export exemptions.

31. Q: General questions – Documentation and Contract Management

a. Will the Government prepare the Shipping Documents?

b. Will the Government file the Export Declaration?

c. Is this contract for the performance of shipping preparation services, the transportation of goods being shipped, or both?

d. Will a Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP) be applicable to this contract?

e. If yes, how is the accuracy evaluated? What is an exception? How is the Government inspecting services?

A: Document and Contract Management questions

a. The Government will prepare the Shipping Documents.

e. See Combined Synopsis/Solicitation Attachment 4 – Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan, the performance threshold will be “100% accuracy with one exception.” The Contractor shall pick up and deliver all shipments in accordance with the IDIQ PWS and individual task order PWS.

32. Q: QASP performance standard is too vague. The QASP states “100% accuracy with one exception” for shipping services, but does not define what counts as an exception. Do exceptions include late pickup, late delivery, damaged cargo, documentation errors, missed tracking updates, customs delays, or Government-caused delays?

A: See Combined Synopsis/Solicitation Attachment 4 – Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan, the performance threshold will be “100% accuracy with one exception.” The Contractor shall pick up and deliver all shipments in accordance with the IDIQ PWS and individual task order PWS. An exception is when the shipments aren’t done in accordance with IDIQ PWS and individual task order PWS that are excusable (i.e., customs delays, port congestion, weather events, Government-caused delays, incomplete documents, destination closures, or access delays outside the Contractor’s control, etc.)

33. Q: Please confirm the email address(es) that should be used for proposal submission. Additionally, please confirm the correct email address for Ms.

Terrijuana P. Veals, as both army.mil and mail.mil domains appear within the solicitation materials.

34. Q: Security/access requirements are broad but not operationally clear. The PWS requires background checks, photo ID, vehicle searches, visitor badges, escorts, and compliance with installation access requirements. Do all subcontracted carriers, drayage providers, foreign agents, and ocean/air partners must complete the same access process, and how much lead time is required?

A: Each installation website provides installation requirements for access. The Contractor shall follow the installation requirements for access on APG-AA and APG- EA) of Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD found at https://home.army.mil/apg/about/visitor-information.
