Answer 1: A brand name is not specified. As long as a vendor's quote meets the MINIMUM specifications, they are considered technically acceptable. Question 2: What is desired - wide screen 16:9 or standard 4:3? Answer 2: Standard 4:3 is acceptable for this requirement - wide screen 16:9 is not needed. Question 3: Please clarify the statement on compliance with Section 508. Answer 3: Section 508 requires that the Federal agencies' electronic and information technology is accessible to people with disabilities.

Question 5: Are refurbished monitors acceptable? Answer 5: No. We are not accepting refurbished monitors for this requirement. _____________________________________________________ QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS (JUNE 5, 2009) Question 1: Maximum response time, contrast ratio and brightness was not addressed in the solicitation.

The minimum specifications listed in the solicitation are critical features to our requirement. However, you are free to include these items in your quote, even though they are not required. To be technically acceptable, the Government requires that all of the minimum specifications be addressed. Question 2: Brand name preference was not listed in the solicitation. Are we required to use a brand name? Answer 2: We are not requiring a brand name for this solicitation. As long as the monitor meets the minimum specifications it is considered technically acceptable. Question 3: Are items on the GSA schedule preferred? Answer 3: No, there is no preference. This is an open market purchase order. Items do not need to be listed on a GSA schedule. _________________________________ This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice.
