DESCRIPTION

1. Contractor experience and technical qualifications

Question: May a newly established small business satisfy the minimum requirement of three years of wall-to-wall pharmacy inventory experience and experience at three pharmacies through the qualifications of proposed key personnel, subcontractors, or teaming partners? Will general retail, grocery, military inventory, or equipment-accountability experience qualify instead of pharmacy inventory experience? Government Response: No.
2. Historical inventory quantities, values, and workload Question: Can the Government provide historical inventory line-item counts, SKU quantities, replacement values, pharmacy sections, inventory areas, and prior inventory durations for each of the six facilities, separated by inpatient and outpatient pharmacies? Can the Government also provide historical staffing levels and facility square footage or shelving quantities? Government Response: Available historical inventory information will be provided in the attachment referenced by the Government. FY2026 inventory information is being compiled. Historical staffing levels are unknown, and facility square footage or shelving quantities are not available.

3. Physical inventory completion deadline

Question: The solicitation contains references to both January 31 and February 28 for completing physical inventories. Which deadline governs? Government Response: All physical inventories at the six VA facilities shall be completed no later than January 31 of the applicable contract year. All final reports, validations, corrections, and required closeout documentation shall be completed and submitted no later than February 28 of that year.

4. Inventory scheduling and completion requirements

Question: May the six facilities be inventoried sequentially by one crew, or must multiple facilities be inventoried concurrently? Are weekend or after-hours inventories permitted, and must each facility's inventory begin at 8:00 a.m. and be completed within one business day?
