The following numbered notes are applicable: 1. Questions and Answers 06/11/2007 Question 1. It appears the FFP line items we are being requested to quote are for 20, 120 and 80 flight days respectively, but the Q&A indicates that the government intention is to task this in smaller chunks. Further examination of FAR 52.212 and the provided fill-ins indicates that the maximum order at any one time is for 20 flight days. With this in mind, is the government requesting that vendors actually provide FFP quote figures on a "per flight day" basis? Or is the idea that vendors submit pricing for the flight day quantities above, and you will then divide by the total to get a per day figure? Since there is no SF 1449 with required blanks to fill in, we just want to ensure that our pricing submittal is compliant. It occurs to us that a per flight day figure for each location may be more appropriate, since we also may be able to apply a volume discount scheme as allowed by the FAR. ANSWER 1: The estimates are for a period of performance of one year: July 01, 2007 through June 30, 2008. The line items should have stated, ?Unit Price per Flight Day $ ?. Question 2. Can you clarify the following language? "The contractor remains legally responsible for each pilot provided under this contract and will supervise each pilot as defined at 5 USC 7103(a)(10)." The U.S. Code supervisory requirements are clear and certainly part of our business practices, but is there an intent to burden the contractor with some kind of liability requirements with this statement? Does the government expect the contractor to carry aviation liability insurance for the operation of non-owned aircraft? ANSWER 2: In accordance with FAR (Federal Acquisition Regulation) 37.104, the intent of this language is to make clear that the requirement is not a personal services contract. It is the contractor?s choice to carry aviation liability insurance for the operation of non-owned aircraft. Question 3. We have so far been unable to locate an electronic version of form USM-271. Can this be made available or do you have a link where it may be downloaded? ANSWER 3: A form USM-271 wiil be e-mailed to anyone requesting the form.
