SCORP  RFP Questions:

What is the envisioned budget range for the project?

The envisioned budget range for the project is $200,000 to $239,000. However, cost is only one of several evaluation factors.

In the section describing submission details, the following is asked: “Provide documentation of the organization’s licensing and certifications, including registration in SAM.gov.” Can you provide some more details in what these “licenses and certifications” are? Does this mean insurance, proof of incorporation, etc.?

This would include any professional/industry/business licenses or certifications held by the organization. Examples include Certificate of Existence, Certificate of Compliance, Certificate of Formation, Certificate of Licensure, Certificate of Authorization, Engineering Firm License, Geoscience Firm License, Land Surveying Firm License, etc. This is not an exhaustive list and not all may apply to every organization.
