All changes made by the following Government responses on the Continuation Page hereby amends the terms of the solicitation. Robert Wilson Contracting Officer Dir 5 VA-OPA-2019-2ED5F4D CONTINUATION PAGE QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Q1) SC 12 mentions, Glaucoma Progression Analysis. However, the correct term for the function on the Zeiss machine is Guided Progression Analysis. The Guided Progression Analysis is the actual function approved by the FDA. Can this SC be updated?

Can you please advise what CLINs 1001 & 2001 are for? GOVERNMENT RESPONSE: This is a typo. There is only one part for each period of performance. The combined synopsis solicitation Attachment A Optical Coherence Tomography - Price List has been removed and replaced with the revised attachment to this amendment. Q3) XXXX is a company based in Mumbai, India. We are interested in participating in the tender mentioned above hence want to get more information about the same. Considering the geographical constraint of personally reviewing the document, I request you to provide us the following details before we buy the document: 1) List of Items, Schedule of Requirements, Scope of Work, Terms of Reference, Bill of Materials required. 2) Soft Copy of the Tender Document through email. 3) Names of countries that will be eligible to participate in this tender. 4) Information about the Tendering Procedure and Guidelines 5) Estimated Budget for this Purchase 6) Any Extension of Bidding Deadline? 7) Any Addendum or Pre Bid meeting Minutes? GOVERNMENT RESPONSE: The requested information for items 1, 2, 3 and 4 are provided in the solicitation attachments A -F via the following link: https://beta.sam.gov/opp/aa3678845ae84a8ca02d2f2d74c00c77/view?keywords=36C10G20Q0052&sort=-relevance&index=&is_active=true&page=1 Additionally, there are currently no extensions for this combined synopsis solicitation and all final quote submissions are due by July 9, 4:00pm ESDST. There will be no pre-bid conferences or meetings held prior to the closing date. The Government will not be providing offerors with a budget for this program. You are encouraged to submit your best and final offer by the closing date. Q4) As the term HD is becoming an older term to define display resolution intended for televisions and there have been several benchmarks beyond the original leap from SD to HD including some that take into consideration specific or unique computer display needs, what are the exact minimum specifications being used to designate the term HD in this description (i.e. 1080p)? GOVERNMENT RESPONSE: Yes, the technical requirement in SC 11 is for 1080p. Q5) It is an industry standard that monitor sizes are measured diagonally and are rounded up to the next inch which determines the monitor s size class . For example, a 22 class monitor would have an actual diagonal measurement of 21.8 inches. Hence, can you clarify if SC 11 is for a 22-inch class monitor (size measured diagonally and rounded to next inch) or is SC 11 actually requiring a monitor with a WIDTH of 22 (which would most likely be a 27 or 28 class monitor)? GOVERNMENT RESPONSE: To further clarify, the requirement in SC 11 is for at a minimum a 22-inch diagonal size monitor screen. ///////////////////////////////////////////END OF AMENDMENT\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
