What the notice says

The purpose of this modification is to answer questions and to provide updated Evaluation Factor 1 (Professional Qualifications) Question 1: In Evaluation Factors paragraph 1 Professional Qualifications that the designers of record have to be registered in the State of Missouri. We want to point out that this is not in keeping with the FAR Registration of Designers provision which allows that for Federal work designers need only be registered in 1 state of the union or Washington DC. We would like to ask that the requirement to be registered in Missouri be removed as this is a federal project.… (show all)

Answer: Please see revised Evaluation Factor 1b below. Question 2: Can the Government please confirm whether Designers of Record who are currently licensed in another U.S. jurisdiction and are eligible to obtain Missouri registration through comity/reciprocity satisfy this requirement at the time of SF330 submission, provided Missouri registration is obtained prior to performing design services if selected for award? Answer: Please see revised Evaluation Factor 1b below. Question 3: Can the Government please clarify whether the projects included on individual resumes under Evaluation Factor 1.c are required to have completed both design and construction, or whether projects that have completed the design phase (but may still be under construction) are acceptable, provided they demonstrate the individual's relevant experience?

Value counts single-winner awards. "Shared" awards are multiple-award contracts that list every winner with the same total ceiling; that ceiling is not one company's win, so it is not added in. Revenue next to a ticker is the company's last annual revenue from its 10-K.
