Questions and Answers – 125B24Q0186 Update East DFRU Elevator

Q1:

A1:

Q2:

Will unrelated elevator work, such as electrical or fire signal control be the responsibility of the GC or will the USDA complete this work?

Contractor is required to perform all necessary electrical work to the extent of connecting the new controller and power unit, emergency light and any other electrical parts up to the power switch. Fire alarm work is proprietary and will be serviced by a different vendor.

In the ‘Scope of Work’ section of the solicitation under Door Equipment on page 7, the scope calls for car and hoistway door hangers and tracks to be replaced. Given the door track is integral to the header (non-detachable) the complete door header on each landing would need to be replaced. Can you confirm if the contractor awarded would be expected to replace the complete header on each floor, or can the hoistway door hangars and tracks be retained?

A2: The contractor is not expected to replace the hoistway door hangers and tracks. The hoistway door hangars and door tracks shall be retained.

Q3: Is there consideration in extending the duration of the project further than 200 days from the notice of award to substantial completion? The provided window is very tight for survey, submittals, procurement, and installation.

A3:

Q4:

A4:

The period of performance can be extended from 200 to 300 days from Notice to Proceed NTP.

Is it possible to extend the offer due date for one week? (currently due 6/28/2024)

Yes, the due date has been extended to 7/5/2024.
