In what floors is the CBOC located within the building? The CBOC is located on the third floor. Is there a PIV card requirement under this contract? If yes, what is the location for fingerprinting and card pick up location? There will be a PIV requirement as there are doors within the clinic that have PIV readers. PIV issue location will be here at the Honolulu VA, Ewing, on the Tripler campus. What is the approximate size of the hard floor requiring strip/wax job? All flooring in the clinic is laminate, so there should be no stripping or waxing but rather daily wipe down only.  Could you clarify the frequency of cleaning upholstered furniture as it shows in both weekly and semi-annual? Please confirm if the contract requires the contractor to perform on both frequencies. The cleaning of upholstered furniture is not an issue as all furniture in the clinic is plastic or vinyl. Daily wipe down only.
