About this file
This is a Request for Information (RFI) Official Responses document for solicitation 127EAW26Q0014, a Los Padres National Forest roofing and siding repairs project issued by the United States Forest Service (USFS). RFI responses will be posted to beta.SAM.gov as necessary amendments, and telephone requests for information will not be accepted or returned.
The document addresses two RFIs submitted by potential contractors. RFI #1 questioned whether the 5-year workmanship warranty requirement could be reduced to 2 years due to industry bonding capacity limitations. The USFS responded by removing the specific warranty language from Specifications SECTION 07 46 46 FIBER-CEMENT SIDING, paragraph 1.5, B., and clarifying that warranty of construction shall instead meet the requirements of FAR 52.246-21. RFI #2 asked whether the government had conducted a Hazardous Material Survey for buildings containing lead-based paint (LCP) and/or asbestos. The USFS responded that no such reports or surveys will be provided by the government.

REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) OFFICIAL RESPONSES
127EAW26Q0014 - Los Padres NF Roofing & Siding Repairs
RFI responses will be responded to as necessary in amendment format which will be posted to the solicitation via beta.SAM.gov
Telephone requests for information will not be accepted or returned.
RFI #1 – The current specifications request a 5-year workmanship warranty. After consulting with our surety and underwriter, we found that the standard industry bonding capacity for workmanship typically caps at 2 years.
Would the Forest Service be open to reducing the workmanship warranty requirement to 2 years? If this change is acceptable, we look forward to receiving a formal amendment to the solicitation.
USFS Response – Specifications SECTION 07 46 46 FIBER-CEMENT SIDING, para 1.5, B., is hereby removed in its entirety. Warranty of construction shall meet the requirements of FAR
52.246-21.
RFI #2 – Does the government have a Hazardous Material Survey for the buildings that contain
LCP and/or Asbestos?
USFS Response – No, the Government will not be providing any reports or surveys.
