Questions and Answers: 1)�Is there a current awardee�for�this contract or is it a new requirement? If there is a current�awardee, what is the solicitation number? This is a new requirement. 2)�Since the period of performance spans several months, how often are we allowed to invoice for payment? Can we submit invoices bi-weekly or monthly through WAWF, or is there a preference for using the Government Commercial Purchase Card (GCPC)? Invoicing frequency is up to the vendor; ideally we like to aim for monthly. WAWF preferred. 3) Is there an estimate of how many�parking spaces are needed? Per the SOW, the sailors are to be afforded all accommodations as the general public. This means that however many parking spots would be allotted to the general public should be available to the sailors. 4) Will a tax-exempt form be provided? Per the SOW, the contract is sales tax exempt. A sales tax can be furnished to the awardee of the contract, however, the rate proposed by the contractor should be all inclusive of any costs. 5) Are third-party travel management companies allowed to respond to this solicitation? Or are you looking for quotes directly from hotels? The Government is looking to contract to one entity for these rooms; the contractor may subcontract as needed as long as they adhere to any subcontracting requirements and understand the Government will hold the prime contractor responsible for all requirements in the SOW. 6) Does the hotel have to have�a specific rating such as�AAA, or a 3 star rating? No specific rating is required; the only specifications the government is evaluating are the ones required by the SOW. 7)�Will a rooming list be required to verify that guests are staying at the hotel for the entire period of performance? If so, how frequently should this list be submitted? A rooming list is not necessary; the government is contracting for the amount of rooms and nights outlined in the contract despite the status of occupancy. 8)�In the event of early cancellation or room vacancy before the period of performance ends, how should billing adjustments be handled? The requirement is being solicited as is and will be contracted as such; in the event of a change, a path forward will be discussed with the awardee when/if the occurrence comes up. 9)�If the property needs to be changed due to a physical problem (as outlined in the SOW), is there a process for communicating and handling room reassignments to government personnel? Communication cadences will be set up with the winning vendor after award. Proposed properties will be inspected IAW the SOW and passed/failed. Should issues arise with proposed properties after award, the awardee will be contacted and it will be expected they adjudicate the issue within a reasonable timeframe. 10)�Will the period of performance or requirements change if there is a partial government shutdown or unforeseen government activity that impacts the stay dates? There should not be any changes in POP; the contract should not be affected by a shutdown. If an unforeseen event happens that should affect the contract, the awardee will be contacted and solution be proposed that considers both the government and the contractor. 11)�The Statement of Work (SOW) requires double occupancy units from November 2024 � January 2025 will you allow the use of more than one lodging facility to meet the large number of double units?�The offeror can propose as many facilities as they would like.
