Transportation Services (OCONUS)

**AMENDMENT 0001** - The purpose of this amendment is to answer questions received from industry. The questions and answers are as follows:

Q1. Approximately, how many people will require this service?

A1: We estimate 86 trips based on last year’s schedule: That is 43 trips from Munich Airport to Edelweiss Lodge in Garmisch and 43 returns.

Q2. Do you request transportation services by trip according to a specific arrival and departure schedule or require the vehicles stay in the assigned locations?

A2: Yes, the driver departures should be based on actual arrival times. The Vendor should monitor arrival times based on flight information the gov’t provides. We want to avoid asking the vendor to arrive more than 20 minutes prior and, therefore, avoid parking fees we incurred last year. 

Q3. How many hours per vehicle per day do you require?, normally we provide 12, 16 or 24 hours shifts.

A3: Defer to the vendor on this. It will depend on how many vehicles and drivers they provide to support the requirement. The more vehicles available the less time each will be required. We can plan for the first arrival at 0600 and the last at 2000. Referencing last year’s schedule, the first arrival was at 0745 and the last was at 1557.
