Question 1. The Public Access Policy for the Pennsylvania courts system (effective as of January 6, 2018) restricts the use of certain types of confidential information in public court filings. Among other things, the names and birthdates of minor children can no longer be used in most court papers. You should now only use your child(ren)’s initials when filling out court papers. All new custody cases started in Tioga County after the effective date of the Public Access Policy are now required to include a Confidential Information Form, but you do not need to file a Confidential Information Form to modify an existing custody order. In Question 1 of the Agreement, identify your child(ren) using their initials and their year(s) of birth. Here is an example:
Question 1. The RFP differentiates between the Senior SW Developer as a key position and as a non-key position but the revised P3 no longer includes that distinction. Due to one position being a key person there is the very real possibility the composite rates for these two categories would be different. Will the government please revise Attachment P3 to include separate line items for the Senior SW Developer as a KEY and non-key position? Answer 1: Attachment P3 is correct. The Government does not want to differentiate between composite rates for key and non-key personnel. The Government wants a composite rate per labor category only with applicable breakouts between regular and overtime rates. No changes have been made to Solicitation N00421-20-R-0002 via Amendment 0003. Questions received from Industry between 11 March 2020 and 17 March 2020 are outlined below. The Government has addressed all questions received through 17 March 2020. The proposal due date has not changed. All submissions shall be made in accordance with Block 9 of the Solicitation cover page.

(a) Hourly Burdened Composite Labor Rates (provided within the tables in paragraphs (c) and (d) below) applicable to CLINs 0001-0005 only:
(1) The rates below are the Hourly Burdened Composite Labor Rates for each labor category, exclusive of prime fee on both prime and subcontractor labor.
i. Hourly Burdened Composite Labor Rates shall include direct labor rates plus all applicable burdens, to include indirect rates, applicable escalation, subcontractor fee on subcontractor labor, and subcontractor pass-through costs (exclusive of prime fee on subcontractor's labor).
ii. Hourly Burdened Composite Labor Rates shall not include prime fee on prime labor, prime fee on subcontractor labor, Foreign-Area Allowances, Other Direct Costs (ODCs) such as Travel and Material, and Cost of Money costs (if proposed).

(2) The Hourly Burdened Composite Labor Rates in paragraphs (c) and (d) are estimates, and invoicing will be based on actual costs incurred.

Question 1. The instructions for the Government cost workbooks explicitly states that “All dollar figures shall be carried out no further than two decimal places. Values with additional decimal places shall not be used within any calculations.” (Instructions tab, row 11). The formulas throughout both the prime and subcontractor workbooks calculate beyond the two decimal places despite only displaying two decimal places. To comply with the instructions, the offeror would have to update every formula to include a “ROUND” function. Will the Government please amend the instructions to be consistent with the workbook formulas and require only that figures be displayed with two decimal places? Answer 1: Attachments P6 and P7 have been updated to specify that dollar figures shall be displayed to two decimal places.
