Questions & Answers / Clarifications

This document contains questions submitted by industry to the Government regarding the "MCPP II" opportunity, along with spaces for Government questions and industry answers. It appears to be a pre-solicitation or draft RFP feedback mechanism.

• Barriers to Entry: Industry is asked to identify any perceived or actual barriers to entry or competition.
• Incentives/Disincentives: Feedback is requested on the Government's contemplation of adding incentives, disincentives, or award fees, including recommendations.
• Pricing Basis: Industry needs to specify what information, beyond the draft RFP, is required for pricing (e.g., manning structure, task order data, historical data).
• Draft CLIN Structure: Feedback is sought on the proposed contract line item number (CLIN) structure.
• Contract Type: Industry's opinion on the proposed contract type (single award FFP/Cost Reimbursable IDIQ with cost CLINs for travel and ODCS) is requested.
• GFE Accountability: Feedback is requested on Government Furnished Equipment (GFE) accountability and maintenance as described in the draft SOW.
• Prime/Subcontractor Interest: Companies are asked to indicate if they are interested in proposing as a prime or subcontractor.
• SOW CLIN Alignment: Whether each SOW section should include its applicable CLIN structure is queried.
• Teaming: Industry's thoughts on teaming for watercraft maintenance are requested.
• Union Labor: Whether union labor is required and if an approach without it is feasible is asked.
• Dedicated vs. Shared Functions: How functions should be requested as dedicated on-site versus shared across the offerer's corporation is explored.
• Proposal Timeline: The estimated time industry needs for SOW review, site visits, and proposal development is sought to ensure adequate response time.

This document is a request for information and feedback from industry. The responses will likely inform the finalization of the solicitation, SOW, CLIN structure, and contract type. Bidders should review these questions to understand the Government's current considerations and to provide input if they are participating in this pre-solicitation phase. The information gathered may influence the final RFP requirements and structure.
