Solicitation Modification 002: This amendment establishes the pre-award ship-check and field measurement requirements, clarifies the award consideration during technical evaluation, and the missing additional FAR clauses and provisions. 1. Pre-Award Ship Check and Field Measurements The Government does not possess reliable existing measurements; therefore, the performance requirement remains valid. Accordingly, offerors shall complete a ship check and conduct the necessary field measurements specified in the SOW, no later than November 16th, 2026, prior to the solicitation closing date of November 18th, 2026.

Offerors shall demonstrate their ability to fabricate and deliver the required components within the timeframe based on the verified ship-check measurements and anticipatory delivery date. 4. Additional FAR clauses and provisions. The original solicitation mentioned additional FA …
