Questions and Answers

Question 1: There are other building systems which will be impacted by this project. We will provide the complete installation of the fire alarm system; to do so we’ll need support from your current maintenance providers of these other building systems so not to void any warranties you may have on their service work. Will you be providing your current HVAC, elevator, and fire sprinkler maintenance personnel to be on site for the final connections to their systems and test accordingly to ensure proper operation?

Answers 1: The contract is to ensure proper function and full restoration of all building functions connected to the fire panel/alarm system. The government will not be providing HVAC, elevator, or fire sprinkler personnel. Awardee will be responsible for ensuring these systems are properly connected and tested to ensure full and proper operation.

Question 2: In the scope of work document, it states to provide a Gamewell/FCI retrofit fire alarm control panel. Will you accept an alternate fire alarm system manufacturer such as Fire Lite, Edwards, or Kidde, which provides equal or greater capabilities to the Gamewell/FCI?

Answers 2: Yes, as long as it is compatible with existing devices listed in the proposal.

Question 3: Can you please provide the existing fire alarm design drawings?

Answers 3: See Attachment 6- Images

Question 4: Would the government accept performing work outside normal duty hours if it benefits the timeline of completion?

Answers 4: TBD with awardee. Federal background clearance is required for building access. If my staff can accommodate other hours we will but we will not give the vendor access to the building without staff present

Question 5: If a fire watch is required due to the building not being protected with an active fire alarm system, would the government provide the personnel to perform the fire watch?

Answers 5: Fire watch is not required.

Question 6: The new radio communicator being requested will require a cellular communication service (Verizon, At&t, or the like) plus a monitoring service. These are monthly subscription cost. How would the government like this to be priced as this solicitation is not for recurring monthly services.

Answers 6: Vendor should provide recommendations for the monitoring service if they do not provide the service and provide typical monthly cost for the subscription. The government will work with existing communication provider and IRTM department to add cellular communications as needed.
