A2.�� All exhibits are attached to the official solicitation in SAM.gov. Q3.�� Is there an Incumbent contractor for both sites? If so, who are the incumbents for each site? A3.�� There are incumbents for both sites. The PSFB incumbent is Embassy Lawn and Landscaping, Inc. (CAGE 0WJL6) and the CMSFS incumbent is Dawson Enterprises, LLC (CAGE 76NW2). Q4.�� What is the current contract amount for each site? A4.�� The current contract amount for PSFB is $7,544,960.25. The current contract amount for CMSFS is $1,164,201.00. Q5.�� For PSFB is there a covered storage area for Ice Melt and or Sand Ice Melt mix materials? A5.�� The only covered area is inside the facility bay. There is not a government-provided storage/covered area. Q6.�� Are we allowed to store bulk fuel at CMSFS? A6.�� CMSFS has no bulk fuel storage area for contractors. Q7.�� Are the Trees being maintained on a 3 to 5 year cycle? A7.�� For PSFB: the trees are maintained annually as needed. For CMSFS: there are no trees being maintained on a 3-5 year plan. Q8.�� Who uses the sand barrels and materials for the facilities? A8.�� For PSFB: the Facility Managers and the contractor uses the sand in the sand barrels for the sidewalks as needed. For CMSFS: snow removal crew that maintains sidewalks and building entrances use the sand barrels. CMSFS provides the materials to fill the containers and the contractor is responsible to keep the barrels filled/maintained with ice melt or ice slicer. Q9.�� What is the requirement if a car is parked in parking lot for more than 48 hours after the start of a snow event (how close do we remove snow)? A9.�� For PSFB: not applicable to PSFB. For CMSFS: there is no requirement to remove snow from parked cars. Please be very careful around any parked vehicles. Q10.�� Are there identified snow storage areas on both bases? A10.�� For PSFB: if the snow accumulation gets unmanageable, there are areas on base where excess snow can be transported to. The main area is located next to the contractor�s facility, Building 200, and also in the fields at Pete East, located by Building 2017. For CMSFS: there are no snow storage areas, snow can be pushed off the edge of the parking lots and roads. Q11.�� The PWS states that the irrigation specialist shall have a FCC Radio State Authorization License to operate Toro Sentinel system. Specifically, what license is required? A12.�� Reference website: https://wireless2.fcc.gov/helpfiles/appletHelp/instr601s.html. The Form is FCC 601-LM. The certification is Radio Service IG-Industrial/Business Pool, Conventional. Area of Operation: operating within a 5.0 km radium around 38-48-56.3 N, 104-41-52.7 W, Peterson Space Force Base, El Paso County, CO. Q13.�� There was a mention that the PWS had changed from the current contract, did the scope increase or decrease? A13.�� The work required increased in some areas and decreased in other areas. Please review the PWS in full for the specifics needed for this requirement. Q14.�� What is the present contract valued at? A14.�� The current contract amount for PSFB is $7,544,960.25. The current contract amount for CMSFS is $1,164,201.00. Q15.�� Are there loading docks available at both Peterson and Cheyenne Mountain where the contractor can unload heavy equipment? A15.�� For PSFB: yes, there are a few loading docks on base which can be utilized to unload heavy equipment. For CMSFS: yes, CMSFS has loading docks at the 300 area. Q16.�� Is there a theft problem at the lay down yard at Peterson SFB? Why were there so many cameras? A16.�� For PSFB: the cameras belong and were installed by the current contractor. The main reason for the cameras are so the manager can monitor snow during the season. However, there are a lot personnel on base, to include internal employees, and they wanted to be able to monitor their assets. We have not heard there is a problem with theft on base. For CMSFS: N/A Q17.�� What is the purpose of Sand or Ice Slicer/Melt Barrels? Who will use the Sand/Ice Melt Barrels? How often will the contractor need to replenish the Sand/Ice Melt Barrels? A17.�� For PSFB: only sand barrels are used. The sand in the barrels are used to spread sand, if needed, on sidewalks adjacent and leading up to facility entrances. The Facility Managers and the contractor use the sand in the sand barrels to mitigate ice and slick footing. The sand barrels are typically replenished after each storm. The magnitude of the storm will dictate how much sane was actually used. For CMSFS: barrels are used to store ice melt/slicer that�s used on sidewalks and building entrances. Ice melt doesn�t create a mess when tracked inside buildings. Slicer is used on roads, parking lots, and PL1 sidewalks. The contractor maintaining the sidewalk and building entrances will use the ice melt/slicer barrels. The contractor will replenish the barrels as needed, depending on the amount of snow and duration of the storm. Q18.�� During the site visit we saw grounds work that was associated with this contract being performed by Davey�s Tree Service. Does the government use other contractors (not the incumbent) to complete grounds work? If the government uses other contractors, will that work be deleted for the grounds contract? A18.�� For PSFB and CMSFS: No, the government only uses the prime contractor. The prime contractor has a sub-contractor they use. The contractor is responsible for the tasks identified in the contract. Q19.�� Who will be responsible for re-establishing the irrigation systems at the Medical Clinic? If the grounds contractor is responsible for re-establishing the irrigation system at the Medical Clinic, will the government pay the contractor or will the construction contractor? A19.�� For PSFB: The re-establishing of the irrigation at the Medical Clinic will likely be done by the contractor. The contractor will be paid to re-establish the irrigation via a task order. For CMSFS: N/A Q20.�� In the solicitation and attachment 6, the instructions to offerors states that relevant contracts must be $1M or more annually. However, the evaluation criteria in both documents lists the relevancy threshold as $1,375,000 per year. Can the government clarify which takes precedence? A20.�� The relevant threshold is $1,000,000.00- the solicitation and attachments have been corrected. Q21.�� We believe that requirements for subfactor 2 may artificially limit competition if limited to prime contractors only. Will the government consider subcontractor experience? A21.�� The government will consider work performed by a prime offeror in which they were either a prime or a subcontractor so long as it meets the criteria outlined in Subfactor 2. The Government does not have purview to any prime subcontractors, therefore, performance by subcontractors does not meet the intent of experience in Subfactor 2.�� Q22.�� In the solicitation and attachment 6, the maximum number of pages is limited to 14, including �no more than 2 pages for sub-factor 2.� However, the instructions also state that offerors may submit up to five efforts for consideration. Attachment 5, experience form, is two pages by itself. Will the government confirm that the maximum number of pages for subfactor 2 should be 10, with a limit of two pages per citation, and that the maximum number of pages for the volume should be 22 (10 subfactor 1, up to 10 for subfactor 2, and 2 for subfactor 3)? A22.�� The technical proposal is limited to 14 pages- 10 pages for Subfactor 1, 2 pages for Subfactor 2, and 2 pages for Subfactor 3. The intent of the 2 pages for Attachment 5 is for a concise answer to relevant experience.� This is not a past performance citation and no additional information outside of the attachment is required or requested. Subfactor 2 should not exceed 2 pages.� Q23.�� Is all tree work required to be performed by a certified arborist, or may some types be performed by groundskeeping personnel (for example, uncomplicated removal of saplings or small trees, pruning dead or damaged branches that can be reached from the ground, etc.)? A23.�� Tree Care and Tree Standards shall be performed IAW PWS 1.8.1.1 and 1.8.1.2, which require a certified Arborist to perform all arboriculture. The specific certification is outlined in 4.3.1 of the PWS. Q24.�� Are preservation of archaeological and historical sites or historic district or damage prevention requirements of this contract? A24.�� The museum compound has some facilities which are considered �Historic�.�� No extra maintenance is required to maintain these areas. Please pre-register for the site visit NLT 2:00PM, MST, 13 October 2021 and provide any questions regarding clarification to the solicitation NLT 19 Oct 2021. Contractors who fail to pre-register for the site visit will NOT be permitted to attend.�� Attachment 6 will provide the following in its�entirety.�� 1.
