- Description
- 1. Amendment 0001 to Solicitation 1333MK24Q0086 is to address questions from interested vendors and to add the GSA Automotive Equipment Rental and Leasing Guidance Instructions as part of the Government terms and conditions. Q1. Are you planning to pay for the rentals on the start date or on a net 30 basis? A1. It is net 30 but we are open to partial payments after every two weeks of car rental has passed. Vendor will need to submit an upload the invoice to IPP.gov and email it to the KO and POC, the receiving will need to be approved by the government customer and processed by finance in accordance FAR 52.212-4. Q2. Is it acceptable to use two 8-passenger SUVs in place of the two minivans? A2. Yes Q3. Are you able to clarify what is meant by ""Standby Services"" for a rental car request? A3. The period of performance is fluid in other words we may start later than June 28, 2024 and/ or may return the rental vehicles before or after August 08, 2024. Therefore, once the award is made the vendor shall verify with the government customer the delivery dates as to not to accumulate any stand by charges for vehicles not being accepted. The government shall pay for actual usage of rental vehicles. In other words, the clock starts once we accept the rental vehicles and will stop once we return the vehicles back to the vendor. Therefore, I would recommend to prepare multiple proposal that will benefit the government based on monthly/weekly/ daily rates. Q4. For CLIN 2 Optional vehicles, do you want a price for the weekly extension of the three vehicles referenced in CLIN 1 or rates for individual vehicles? A4, Vendor shall provide the rates for each vehicle based on both weekly and daily rates; vendor shall invoice the government based on the best pricing to the government. Q5. Do you want a copy of the solicitation document completed in the initial submission or do you only want our response to the solicitation with the spreadsheet attached that was requested? A5 We want both the return of the SF1449 with the total pricing and the spreadsheet where you come up with the pricing. If there are multiple rates for Monthly/ weekly/ daily the vendor shall provide them and the government shall only pay for the better rate based on the total usage of vehicles. In other words, for example if the total usage of rental vehicles is 25 days and monthly rates is $1,000 and weekly $300 rate and daily rate is $50 then we shall pay the best rate of $1,000. However, if we only use 21 days the we shall pay the better rate of $900. If we use only use 22 days then the government shall pay (3 weeks plus 1 day) = $950. Q6: Good day, can you please tell me the year, make, model, and color of the vehicles that you are requesting? A6 We need three rental vehicles as follows: Two (2) Minivans or Two (2) 8 Passenger SUV One (1) mid-size sedan. Each vehicle be no more than four years old, and have no more than 60,000 miles on the odometer. In addition, color is irrelevant. The vehicles shall contain a full tank of gas. 2.
