Questions and Answers for RFQ# 36C24824Q1036 Specifically what level of fall protection training are you requesting. I see the class is a 3-day course, are you requesting the training be an EM385 Competent Fall Protection Person course? Is this class an Authorized Fall Protection Person course? Who are the students attending the training and what is their role within the organization, i.e., supervisors or end users? Does the training need to meet any specific requirements such as ANSI, or OSHA and finally are you requesting any specific experience level for the training organizations or third-party accreditation such as IACET? Answer: Yes, the James A. Haley Veterans Hospital (JAHVH) Facility Management Services (FMS) Team is requesting BOTH the Competent Fall Protection Person Course (Refresher) and Authorized Fall Protection Person Course. Both these courses would fall under #4 Fall Protection General Industry / Course as described in the Performance Work Statement (PWS). All the shop personal within FMS will be attending the training, including supervisors. The Fall Protection Training needs to meet OSHA standards, therefore there is no specific experience level, if they are meeting the REQUIRED OSHA requirement to provide such certification and/or training. Under Forklift and Bobcat training on the PWS, how many students is JAHVH requesting to attend this training? Answer: Max 10 students per class. My company is fully capable of providing all of the training listed with the exception of the following: NFPA Fire and Smoke door inspection Certification Training Bobcat Training Medical Gas Brazing- Certification / Course Backflow Prevention Certification / Course Are you accepting solicitation for organization capable of providing all safety related training except for those listed above? Answer: ALL facility maintenance safety training courses listed on the PWS are trainings/courses that JAHVH is requesting. As stated in section (iv) of the Combined Synopsis/Solicitation: Responses shall be on all or none basis, no partial submission will be accepted. *** Please reference the REVISED PWS (labeled Attachment 1 Revised PWS 5.21.2024) with the information added per questions 1 and 2 above. *** *** This is a courtesy reminder that ALL verified/certified SDVOSB s must complete/sign/submit the Limitation of Subcontracting (LoS) Certification under VAAR 852.219-75 on the Combined Synopsis/Solicitation, along with your quote and New Vendor Form.
