Description
The purpose of this modification is to remove the requirement for compliance with the Berry Amendment and to post questions and answers. 1. Does the Institute of Heraldry have dies and tools or do we have to make them? I called but cannot reach Stan Haas, only his mail box. The Institute of Heraldry has no hubs or dies for these medals. 2. Enameling: Your specs say Hard enameling but some of your numbers are hard stoned epoxy. The institute accepts hard stoned epoxy for all military emblems and medals. Can we quote hard stoned epoxy? Enameling can be hard fired enameling or hard stoned epoxy 3. Bravery medal: Is the lug part of the medal or separate? Eagle in triangle seams to be in relief. When stoning the hard enamel it will become flat (2D) The lug for the Bravery medal is part of the medal. The background in the triangle is red enamel with the eagle in relief. The background behind the swords is black enamel. The entire circle is covered with a clear epoxy material. The outer rays are beveled. 4. Liberation medal. Is the attachment of the medal to the ribbon a separate piece, which attaches to the loop of the medal? The attachment of the medal to the ribbon is a separate piece which attaches to the loop of the medal. 5. Wound medal: The red back ground of the Star, the rays seem to be beveled. That would be sprayed enamel. Or is it flat so that it can be hard enameled? Is this a 2 piece medal or one piece? What is the finish.? There are no specs for this medal on the web, only for the ribbon. Is the ribbon a ribbon drape like the other medals or a neck ribbon? Attachment of the ribbon drape: can be 2 nail bar with clutches, or side loading safety catch or fusion catch, top loading? The red background rays are beveled and sprayed with a red matte finish enamel. The medal is one piece. The star is matte gold. The ribbon does not have a traditional drape. It is folded as shown on the drawing and sewn to the ribbon ring with no attaching device 6. Do the medals have to be made in the USA. No. 7. What does “supporting information for proposed items that demonstrates they understand the specifics stated in the description mean and entail? It means that you must supply enough information on how YOU would produce the item, so that it is clear to the contracting officer that the offeror understands the requirement. NOTE: THIS NOTICE WAS NOT POSTED TO WWW.FEDBIZOPPS.GOV ON THE DATE INDICATED IN THE NOTICE ITSELF (27-MAR-2004); HOWEVER, IT DID APPEAR IN THE FEDBIZOPPS FTP FEED ON THIS DATE. PLEASE CONTACT fbo.support@gsa.gov REGARDING THIS ISSUE.
