About this file

This document contains questions and answers related to Request for Proposal 140P1424R0004 for the rehabilitation of the Fort Smith Administrative Building at Bighorn Canyon National Recreation Area in Montana. The solicitation seeks a general contractor to remodel the administrative building, including replacing cabinets in the kitchen area, bathroom partitions and lockers, windows, and electrical switches and outlets throughout the building. Bidders asked about accepting bids just for specific scopes like the wheelchair lift or using key personnel in dual roles. The National Park Service confirmed it is seeking one prime contractor for the entire project and does not limit certain project roles being filled by the same individual. Clarification was also provided on past performance submission requirements and allowing the site superintendent to serve as the safety specialist.

B08 140P1424R0004 Attachment 1 Specifications Final CD 3-23- 23_Clean with Addendum does not limit overlapping of the Project Manager, Job-Site Superintendnet, On-site Quality Control Manager, or On-site Safety Manager.

Given the size of the project, would the government consider having the Superintendent serve as the Quality and Safety Specialist, as well (“triple hat”)?

7-Dec Please refer to Answer #7. 0001

Will the government accept a previously received Past Performance Questionnaire for a project that does not have a CPARS?

7-Dec

The government will not accept a previous past performance questionnaire for a project that does not have CPARS. Contractors cannot submit their own past performance questionnaire(s). Those must be submitted to colton_nelson@nps.gov by the applicable customer.

I have it called out in the divisions there is fire suppression but there is no div.

21 in the specs and there is also no specs for the ADA appliances called out in the plans on A 7.2.

18-Dec

My last question is concerning the safety position and whether or not the on-site superintendent can also hold that position?

18-Dec Please refer to Answer #7. 0001

12 I cant find division 25- Integrated automation in the specs. 18-Dec

Plan sheet(s) E1.0 & E1.1 Power General Notes (C) Add Alternat #2: Replace All existing receptacles and switches in building with new. Statement also includes cover plates. The plan sheet(s) do not indicate where, how many, or rather they are single pole, double pole, 3-way (Switches), seems that receptacles are marked however, the switches are not. There is no information regarding the note for the switches.

Is there is a location where the switches are called out in the plans? and if they are not, how many are there and the type.

21-Dec

On the door schedule E13 has an existing HM Frame but then asks for a HM door. Do I need to supply a new HM Door? The spec does not talk about any doors. Should I replace this door with an 18 gauge 707 Polystyrene core flush door?
