AMENDMENT 01 FOR QUESTIONS RECIEVED 14 FEB:

Q1: On Page 8, Section 4.1, the RFP states that Functional System Administrator (FSA) must have 4.1.1. CompTIA Security+ certification.

Q: Would CompTIA CYSA+ certification be acceptable in place of Comp TIA Security + certification?

A1: No, that certification isn’t acceptable for the AFNET Q2: (Combined Solicitation, Page 5) - What is expected to be submitted as part of the Technical Acceptability Subfactor 1 - eTools Service Technician (FSA)? Does the Government expect resumes to be submitted to demonstrate capability? If so, how many resumes are required?

A2: Resumes aren’t expected please provide a plan for hiring qualified employees.

Q3: (Combined Solicitation, Page 5) - Technical Acceptability Subfactor 3 - CME Resume Certification. Are vendors only required to submit a signed Attachment 2 from the contractor staff in response to this subfactor as the requirements noted on Page 5 appear to be duplicated with the requirements of Subfactor 4 CME Management Plan/Phase In and Out?

A3: Yes, this provides proof there are interested qualified applicants.

Q4: (PWS Section 8) – Can the Government provide timeline for the phase-in and phase-out period?

A4: Due to the short timeline, the government will try for 2 weeks of overlap, however the contractor will not be peanolized if it is shorter.

Q5: (Combined Solicitation, Page 12) List of Attachments.

Attachment 5: Past Performance Questionnaire is provided as part of the attachments for this solicitation, but no instructions are provided in C.2 or within the Basis of Contract Award, Page 7 of the RFQ. If PPQ’s are required, can the Government provide detailed instructions and the associated evaluation criteria?

A5: PPQ's will be evaluated for any non-compliance with the PWS they are associated with. If there is any, has the company corrected the issue in a timely manner or are they in the process of correctingly. Secondly, it will be considered as to who (government or contracctor) identified the discrepency. Any descrepency will negate any potential above satisfactory ratings as mentioned by the questionaire filer.

Q6: (Combined Solicitation, Page 3, C.2) PART II – PAST PERFORMANCE INFORMATION – Will the Government allow CPARS in lieu of PPQs?

A6: PPQ's reflect current work that hasn't been captured on completed CPARs. This information is necessary for the contracting officer to make an informed decision for award.

Q7: May we use CPARS instead of the Past Performance Questionnaire?

A7: Refer to A6. This solicitation is a follow on to the current contract FA680020F0007 with Syneren Technologies Corporation that is set to expire on 27 March 2025.
