AMENDMENT 5 - Response to question submitted. Question: Can the Staffing Expertise Matrix and the Person Loading charts be included as Appendices and not counted toward the page count limit? Can we use 11x17 landscape for the expertise Matrix? Answer: Staffing Expertise Matrix and Staff Loading Charts are included in the page count limit. Pages must be letter size (8.5 x 11 inches), but can be in landscape orientation. Question: According to bidders’ question 33, the staff loading chart must be presented by hours, years, tasks, and subtasks for all personnel, subcontractors, consultants, and partners. Since there are 11 tasks, 25 subtasks, and 5 contract years, in order to be readable, this chart may be 25 pages long. Therefore, can the staff loading chart be included in an appendix and not counted toward the page limit for the technical proposal? Answer: No. There is no change in submission date. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- AMENDMENT 4 - Response to question submitted.
