**Please Add Labor Categories As Needed



Answer: The vendor is quoting all of the clearly identified scope of services found in the statement of work with the general over-arching scope of the contract being that the vendor provides Medical Physicist On-Site Services. This being a highly regulated field there may be new regulations and or standards that may need to be met that may require the Government to purchase on an emergent basis. The vendor would price emergent services with the use of this table. The Labor Mix is defined as the types of personnel that would be required to provide the Physicist On-Site Services.



Question: Does the Government have a suggestion for a way we can know that the Past Performance Questionnaire forms have been submitted?
