Q1) I've been following this [requirement] for some time and the specifications point directly toward a single sourcing for Wayne dispensers. Will there be any way to allow for dispensers other than Wayne to be quoted (i.e. Gasboy) which is what you currently have? The specs appear to have been taken directly from a Wayne cut-sheet.

A1) The specifications in the SOW are intended to be unrestrictive minimums. Any dispenser solution that meets these minimums, and is compatible with the stated control system, will be acceptable for this procurement.

Q2) The hanging will have to be replaced for the dispensers on the "new" unleaded tank (vapor recovery), but are you considering new hardware for all the other dispensers, or will you be reusing the existing?

A2) Per paragraph 4.3.15 of the SOW dated 9-2-2012, "All installations will include hanging hardware that is typically required for operation of a fuel dispenser. This includes fuel hoses, automatic nozzles, breakaways, and swivels."

Q3) Do I send my bid to you via e-mail?

A3) Per the quotation instructions found at https://www.fbo.gov/spg/DHS/USCS/SBIAO/20072176_Fuel_Tank/listing.html all quotations must be sent to [email protected].

Q4) Can it be on my company bid form?

A4) Quotations should be submitted in accordance with HSBP1012Q0149, A01.

Q5) Can I line item certain items such as the tank level monitor and options?

A5) Quotations should be submitted in accordance with HSBP1012Q0149, A01. Your intended quotation should be clear and concise.

Q6) My proposal will come with optional recommendations if that is OK?

A6) Multiple offers will be evaluated in accordance with paragraph (e) of FAR 52.212-1 (incorporated on page 18 of HSBP1012Q0149, A01).

The due date and time for quotations is 9-7-2012 at 3:00 PM (Arizona).
