Question 2: Will alternate proposals be accepted for this procurement? Answer 2: Alternate proposals will not be accepted for this procurement. Question 3: My firm is currently a small business under the NAICS code JSC selected for this procurement, however, after my fiscal year ends I will no longer be able to be classified as a small business. Can I submit a proposal before I become ineligible to be considered small business and still be considered responsive as a small business? Answer 3: Please refer to 13 CFR 121 (Code of Federal Regulations) for further information on your proposal submission eligibility. Question 4: Due to the size and diversity of this solicitation we would like to invite other businesses to collaborate with us - will you favorably consider a team or partnership of bidders? Answer 4: Yes, you are free to collaborate with other businesses. Offerors should determine what is the best method for them to organize to adequately respond to the solicitation. Whether an offeror decides to collaborate or not will not be looked upon either favorably or unfavorably by the Government. Question 5: If yes (to question 4), must they also qualify as a small business if we remain prime contractor? Answer 5: The requirement for this procurement is for the Prime Contractor to be a small business. The subs can be a combination of small, large or whatever a firm desires to best support this effort. Please note that the requirement for a small business set-aside is that the small business Prime Contractor performs 51% of the effort. Question 6: Our firm is also interested in the JETS Procurement that will be taking place at the same time as JIMMS. The JETS announcement stated that their industry briefing would also take place on October 14th - will these be coordinated so that people may attend both? Answer 6: The JIMMS and JETS Industry Briefings will be held on the same day. One will be in the morning and the other in the afternoon so interested parties can attend both briefings. More details on the briefing schedules will posted at a later date. Question 7: I would like to obtain more information in regard to JIMMS contract or sign up to be on your mailing list for updates if such mailing list exists.
