AMENDMENT #1 - FA664824Q0016

The purpose of this amendment is to answer the following questions that were received:

1. Would the end user need to have the tool etched?

Government Response: It is not necessary to include etching if it will cause delays and increase price.

2. On the tool list they only listed two tool carts, but no toolbox? With this amount of tools, I am sure these will not fit in these two carts, so would they need a tool box?

Government Response: No additional toolbox is necessary; the tools will be added to the two large toolboxes were currently using (U3PH00002 and U3PH00004).

3. On the tool list I do not see any were with custom cut foam. is this something they would need?

Government Response: No, foam inserts are not required as they will be mixed with existing tools.

All other terms and conditions remain unchange. The proposal due date remains Tuesday September 4, 2024 @ 1:00PM EST.
