This document is a mandatory questionnaire (Attachment 0006) for RFQ Number W519TC-26-Q-CALI. It is designed to verify that a potential contractor possesses the technical capabilities, certifications, and logistical resources required to perform gage calibration services for the Crane Army Ammunition Activity (CAAA).

The questionnaire consists of 23 "Yes/No" questions. Bidders must provide comments for any "No" responses. Key areas of inquiry include:

• Technical Expertise: Authorization to service specific gage lists and knowledge of all CAAA-owned items.
• Logistics & Turnaround: Capability for weekly pick-up/delivery and a mandatory one-week turnaround timeframe for all calibrations.
• Onsite Requirements: Ability to work onsite with specific equipment (e.g., scales, optical comparators, ovens) and willingness to work in buildings with explosive hazards.
• Compliance & Safety: Adherence to OSHA standards, CAAA wireless medical device policies, and the ability to obtain DBIDS base access cards.
• Administrative & Reporting: Agreement to provide accredited certificates via email and internet database, use WAWF for monthly invoicing, and maintain 24-hour email responsiveness.
• Physical & Material Standards: Requirements for lifting 50-70 lbs, providing specific non-cardboard shipping containers, and applying hot melt coatings to gage surfaces.

Completion of this questionnaire is likely a requirement for a responsive bid. It serves as a summary checklist of the Performance Work Statement (PWS) and allows bidders to confirm they can meet the specific operational constraints of the facility, such as explosive safety protocols and specialized shipping requirements.
