Solicitation� Pages 10-11 of 68: The Solicitation states that "Offerors shall provide the Contracting Officer confirmation of the bid bond delivery via email... prior to the closing date/time."

Government answer: The Government revised the solicitation to remove the sentence which states, Offerors shall provide the Contracting Officer confirmation of the bid bond delivery via email to taminie.panich@va.gov and Robert.moffett@va.gov prior to the closing date/time .

For Volume I - past performance requirements, can SDVOSB utilize Teaming Agreement with Major Subcontractor while proofing limitations subcontracting requirements? Government answer: The government does not usually get into the business of directing companies on whether they may have teaming agreements.� The government only stipulates that contractor must abide by the limitation subcontracting requirements.

Government answer: Please see Volume II Price Section (j).This is a 100% SDVOSB Set-Aside.

An SDVOSB receiving the award must be in the SBA Vet Cert database ton receive award. EP103 shows keyed note 6 on the roof plan. There is no keyed note 6 on the legend. Government answer: Note 6 should be note 3. Note 3 mentioned bonding mechanical equipment to the lightning protection system. EP103 no roof mounted receptacles are shown. Government answer: There is no receptacles shown as there are only exhaust fans on the roof. Per code it s required for heating, air conditioning, or refrigeration equipment. An exhaust fan doesn t exactly fit into these criteria. With that said a convenience outlet can be added if needed. E603 shows almost all the disconnect types as a breaker N4X. Is this supposed to be N4X enclosed breakers or N4X disconnect switches? Government answer: 4X for the disconnect switches. Not an enclosed breaker. E601 shows the generator to be 500KW/625KVA.
