RFC Answers – N4523A27Q0002 YT-811
Question 1: the cover page lists the quote deadline as "Wednesday, 23 October 2026, 2:00 PM PT," but 23 October falls on a Friday. Could you confirm which date and time you want quotes in by? We want to be sure we don't miss it.
Answer: The Solicitation due date has been extended to Monday, 02 November 2026 at 2:00PM Pacific Time.
Question 2: We ran into some broken formulas in Attachment 2 and want to make sure we hand you a clean price sheet. On the YT-811 tab, the TOTAL PROPOSED PRICE cell (R111) reads =#REF!+R107. On the Labor Hour Breakdown tab, several paragraph and title cells and the rowtotal column (AP77 onward) show #REF!. That tab is also missing a number of paragraphs that are on the YT-811 tab: 1.19, 1.22, 3.1.3, 3.2.2, 3.2.3, 3.4.8–3.4.11, 3.5.1–3.7.1, 3.7.4, 3.7.5, 3.10.1, 3.10.2 and 3.11.1–3.13.5. Would you be able to send out a corrected worksheet? If that isn't practical, are you OK with offerors fixing the formulas and adding the missing rows themselves?
Answer: There is a revised Attachment 2, Price Worksheet. Only cells in yellow should be filled out.
Question 3 : Could you help us understand how you'd like the LOE2C growth line handled? It's pre-filled at 4,713 MH and $35,970.34 material, but the LOE column totals come out to 9,426 MH and $71,940.68, which looks like it's being counted twice. There's also a "Total Option Items (O)" block, and we didn't see any option CLINs in the RFQ. Our read is: (a) LOE2C should count once in the total price; (b) we apply our proposed fringe, overhead, G&A and profit to the 4,713 MH, and treat the $35,970.34 material the same as base-work material; (c) the Option Items block can be ignored. Is that right?
Answer: The excel sheet looks like it is calculating correctly. The excel is showing only one line item for Level of Effort (LOE) to Completion – Growth, and one line item right below for Column Totals. Man Hours is for LOE2C is capped at 4,713 Labor Hours and $35,970.34 Material Price. It does not appear that it is being counted twice. There is no option CLINS for this requirement. Please note that there are hidden rows in this excel sheet that are not applicable to this requirement and are not being used.
Question 4: A few SOW paragraphs have real cost behind them but no line on Attachment 2: 1.13 (Safety, including PE-designed scaffolding), 1.20 (Label Plates), 1.24 (PCP), 1.26 (OEM Technical Representative), 1.27 (Heavy Weather Plan), 3.3.1 (Rubber Fender Retention
