All other terms and conditions of Solicitation W912CH-25-R-0051 remain unchanged. The amendment also details the process for acknowledging receipt by offerors and clarifies that offers must conform to the new delivery schedule for CLIN 0003AA, which does not permit alternative proposals.
Amendment 0002 to Solicitation W912CH-25-R-0051 revises and adds to Sections L and M of the original solicitation. The primary purpose of this amendment is to clarify the requirements for offerors regarding access to and demonstration of possession of the Technical Data Package (TDP) for the Mortar 81mm XM252 weapon system. Offerors must request access to the RFP's TDP through SAM, as detailed in C.1.2.4.2, and provide a copy of Sheet 1 of 1 from Drawing Number DR_11581018_1NUW7_B_001_001 with the original date as proof of possessing the most recent TDP.
