4110--REFRIGERATORS & FREEZERS

This amendment is being done to answer the questions provided by interested parties, we are extending the delivery date, and changing some of the Delivery Schedule information. Please see the attached Amend 2 RFQ attached. Answers to the questions for RFQ #36C24W24Q0067 Is the contractor required for two deliveries for all products? The two deliveries are for the two different locations, one for Spinal Cord Injury and the other for Community Living Center. One to the warehouse and then a subsequent move to the destination once all products have arrived. We do not have a warehouse for this equipment; therefore, a contractor would have to warehouse this equipment until the required need date. The RFQ references installing a Delafield sneeze guard onto an existing counter-top but there is no sneeze guard specified in the RFQ? This language was removed from the line item. The sneezeguard is no longer a requirement. Is the sneezeguard already in the possession of the VA? This language was removed from the line item. The sneezeguard is no longer a requirement. How many sneeze guards need to be installed onto existing countertops? This language was removed from the line item. The sneezeguard is no longer a requirement. Can the VA provide a layout of the premises? In order to compute accurate installation costs, there is a need to know if there are multiple buildings, multiple floors, how far apart are the rooms, etc. There is one building and multiple floors. There are freight elevators and stairs available for the delivery of required equipment. However, floor plans can and will be provided to the selected vendor. How will payments be processed? Can we submit an invoice for the equipment once its inspected? Will we be able to submit an invoice every month for the warehouse storage until all units are in place in September? Payment will be provided in arrears. Invoices are to be submitted upon receipt and acceptance of equipment. No, invoices will not be received monthly for warehouse storage, since this is a Firm-Fixed Priced contract. However, consideration will be paid for any delays caused by the Government, if a delay occurs.
