00 63 13 - RFI Form.pdf

This file is a Request for Information/Interpretation (RFI) form template used by Herbert, Rowland & Grubic, Inc. (HRG), the engineer of record for the West Cocalico Township Authority (WCTA) Meter Replacement Project in Pennsylvania. The RFI form serves as the standardized mechanism for contractors to submit clarifications and proposed solutions regarding the specifications, drawings, and project details during the bidding and construction phases. The form is designed to facilitate formal communication between the contractor and the project engineer, with designated fields for project identification, specification sections, detailed requests, proposed solutions, and formal responses with attachments and signatures from both parties.

The RFI form does not contain pricing information, set-asides, funding sources, or specific contract terms. Rather, it functions as an administrative tool to manage technical inquiries throughout the project lifecycle. Contractors bidding on the WCTA Meter Replacement Project—which involves replacing approximately 790 water meters with new AMI meters across West Cocalico Township—are required to submit all questions about the meaning or intent of the Bidding Documents via PennBid in accordance with the Instructions to Bidders, with all official communications and addenda distributed exclusively through the designated PennBid website at https://pennbid.bonfirehub.com/. Bid security of not less than 10% in the form of a Certified Check or Bid Bond must accompany all bids, which are due by Thursday, November 5, 2026 at 10:00 AM local time.
