1240BH21Q0059 Forestwide Excavation and Demolition Amendment 01 Questions and Answers

Q1: The SF-1442 cover page states that there is no performance or payment bond required.

However, on page 32 of the solicitation, under 52.228-13 Alternative Payment Protections, payment bond is listed as an alternate payment protection. The number of the days to submit an alternate payment protection is blank.

A1: Thank you for your question. To provide clarification performance and payment bonds are required when the construction estimate is $150,000 and above. Because the construction estimate for this project is between $25,000 and $100,000, a payment bond is not required.

However, as the Contractor you can choose to use a payment bond as an alternative payment protection. Since it’s optional, it is not checked on the cover page. The number of days to submit your alternate payment protection is 10 days.

Q2: Who is responsible for installing the vault prior to the building installation?

A2: The Contractor who will be awarded this contract will be responsible for the installation.

Each restroom is a 3-piece precast structure that includes both the vault and the building.

Q3: Will the COR locate the exact building location after the previous building has been removed ?

A3: Yes

Q4: The solicitation did not include a " return packet" for download. Can you please identify the pages you need returned to you and let me know?

A4: Please reference Section L.2 Quote Preparation Instructions on page 43 of the solicitation.
