Added: <input type="hidden" name="dnf_class_values[procurement_notice][description][2][added_on]" value="2017-08-07 23:33:31">Aug 07, 2017 11:33 pm Modified: <input type="hidden" name="dnf_class_values[procurement_notice][description][2][modified_on]" value="2017-08-08 09:38:27">Aug 08, 2017 9:38 am Track Changes AMENDMENT 0004 SwISS RFP additional clarification to Industry Questions. The Government would like to make a clarification with regard to submission of proposal documents. QUESTION: "In Section L.I, "General Instructions," the guidance states "The Offeror shall prepare proposal volumes as follows" and then identifies (1) Volume I, Solicitation, Offer and Award Documents. Then in Section L.I.2, Page Limitations, the guidance states that Volume 1 is limited to 3 pages. In Section L.2.1.1, the Offerors Cover Letter, the guidance states that the cover letter is limited to 3 pages, which would indicate that the cover letter represents the entire Volume 1. However, the model contract includes Section B, with fixed prices for the CDRLs, and Section K, the Reps and Certs with specific boxes to be filled out. I reviewed the Section L directions to find reference to the Model Contract, but did not find anything. I'm trying to discern whether or not we are required to include as part of Volume 1 the Model Contract with Section B and Section K filled out. My concern is that to do so (i.e., include the Model Contract specifically Sections B and K filled out as part of Volume 1) would result in exceeding the 3 page limit for Volume 1, as both Sections are significantly more than 3 pages." GOVERNMENT RESPONSE: Offerors shall reference RFP Section (L-22): L.2.1.1 Offerors Cover Letter The Government would like to clarify the following information: a) No cost or price data shall be included in the Cover Letter b) Section K, Reps and Certs shall be attached to the Cover Letter. NOTE: In accordance with this amendment, the Government is removing the page limitation for Section L.2.1 Volume I. The proposal submission deadline remains unchanged, proposals shall be received no later than 11:59 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST) on August 9, 2017 and will not be extended due to receipt of any additional questions Please continue to monitor FBO for further updates.
