UPDATE 11 Apr 23 DUE DATE CHANGED TO 28 Apr 23 ADDED Q&A BELOW 1. Please advise if this repair contract will be administered by DCMA and if the Government intends to conduct source inspections. If so, please advise what the source inspection will consist of. Note that Schedule B states that inspection is at Origin by the Quality Assurance states Commercial Item Inspection. Does commercial item inspection mean kind, count and condition? USAF- The USG is open to using commercial inspection process instead of DCMA (source inspection). If you would like us to change that to Destination Inspection & Acceptance, please provide that back in your proposal as a ground rule and assumption and/or track change to the RFP. 2. There is no CLIN provided for the Beyond Economical Repair (BER), however, it may be necessary for the inspection and testing of radios that are determined to be BER. USAF- Please provide this recommendation and pricing back. I would also like to see PWS language that would support this CLIN and the deliverable/ CDRL that would be proposed to support it as applicable. 3. The PWS states that each “end item identified as serviceable shall be delivered to the Government defect free”. Are cosmetic defects part of the repair? USAF- Please add this as a ground rule & assumption to your proposal to address this. If you thinking defining language would be appropriate in the PWS, please make the track change for our team to review and negotiate with you. 4. Will warranty be required on returned equipment for the defect repaired? USAF- Yes, please add defining language to the PWS as needed or applicable and note it in your Ground Rules and assumptions in your proposal 5. Is FAR 52.222-41, Service Contract Labor Standards applicable? USAF- FAR 37.101 Service contract means a contract that directly engages the time and effort of a contractor whose primary purpose is to perform an identifiable task rather than to furnish an end item of supply. A service contract may be either a nonpersonal or personal contract. It can also cover services performed by either professional or nonprofessional personnel whether on an individual or organizational basis.

There are some exceptions listed and if you believe one of the applicable exceptions applies, please provide the required detailed using the language and justification from FAR 22.1006. The Contracting Officer will have to make a formal determination to apply the exception and at this point The Contracting Officer does believe an exception applies and the clause will be included in the final contract so it should be priced accordingly. ____________________________________________ COMBINED SYNOPSIS / SOLICITATION This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial services prepared in accordance with (IAW) the format in Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice.
