The drawings are missing a finish plan/schedule, so we are unable to determine which windows are expected to be covered with window treatments.

Can we give you price for the roofing only or is the proposal for the entire project?

See sheets: A-700 and A-701 for shedule and materials, A-711 thru A-715 for floor finishes, as well as several additional A-7XX series sheets showing interior elevation sheets defining finishes on the walls

No. Proposals must be for the entire project broken out per the contract line item guidelines in specification 01 27 00. Interested roofing subcontractors may coordinate with prime contractors to submit subcontractor proposals. See the site visit sign-in sheet from the prior amendment and the Interested Party list on FBO.

AMENDMENT 0003 will incorporate the NEW Contract Price Schedule which includes the two new line items for the water line.

Clause 52.219-4 of the solicitation gives 2 instances for a 10% pricing preference, the first to receive a preference is HUBZONE Small Business Concerns and the second is Small

Business Concerns. We are a construction company that has done less than $35,000,000 yearly revenue average for the last 3 years and therefore will self-certify as a Small Business

Concern in SAM. My question is, do we qualify as a Small Business Concern and will we receive the same pricing preference as a HUBZONE Small Business Concern.

Offers will be evaluated in accordance with FAR Clause 52.219-4. The Contrator is responsible for understanding and meeting small business requirements in order to submit the required Representations and Certifications and meet all proposal requirements. .

Volume II contents require us to submit general references form and subcontracting plan form. It states both are attached, however they were not included as part of the attachments nor is it included within the solicitation form. Could you please advise if there are, in fact, preprinted forms for these items and if so, can you please provide?

FBO Amendment 1 does not have a SF 30. AMENDMENT No. 0001 on SF 30 was issued to incorporate the drawing that is showing as FBO Amendment 2.

Refer to FAR 52.236-1. The clause requires that the work performed to satisfy the percentage shall be performed on the site and with the contractor's own organization.

Work not meeting these requirements, under any Division, would not be applied against the percentage.

Please confirm if 15% of work to be self-performed includes the cost of general conditions.

The solicitation states volumes are to be bound – can we submit the two volumes in 3-inch binders versus binding?

REQUEST / QUESTION RESPONSE

This is John with Clark Wire and Cable. We are on the specs as supplier for the

Audio/Visual scope of above/attached project. Could you advise who is managing the AV scope of the project?

What is the required roller shade fabric material? The specs call for light-filtering fabric under section 2.2. F. 1. and light-blocking/opaque fabric under section 2.3. B. If light-filtering is the appropriate fabric type, please indicate the percentage openness (i.e. 1%, 3%, 5%, or 10%).

Only as indicated in drawings where repair, replacement, or touchup is necessary.

The exterior stucco/paint beyond those areas is not in scope.

Volumes can be submitted in binders (e-mail response sent with attachment 7/3/19 by Kurt Ulmer).

Will the forms containing the CLIN’s be revised to include the additional CLIN’s created by

Addendum # 1?

What special inspections are required what testing is required of the contractor? (Croft to list out the specification section(s) containing special inspections, and a brief description of those test and inspections that require a contractor to provide an inspection/test for). A comprehensive list should be in section 014000 of the specifications. Currently I do not see that included in the specs. There is a note in the specs saying the testing requirements are described in certain spec sections.

...answer is pending

Please advise if a price for stucco at the existing building areas to remain should be included as part of this proposal.

The forms attached to this email are to be completed and returned by the offeror, however these forms will be difficult to fill out and complete in their current format. Thy currently have text in the fields that are to be filled in by the offeror and that text cannot be overwritten using Adobe Acrobat without creating a new text box for each and every field which would be extremely time consuming and not good quality. Can these forms be provided in a fillable format or at least with the fields being left blank so we can use the fill and sign tool in Adobe

Acrobat to fill in the blanks and complete the form?

The Forms were added as AMENDMENT No. 0002 on SF 30 and is shown on FBO as Amendment 3. This AMENDMENT No. 0002 furnished Section J Attachment 16

Project Experience and Attachment 17 – Past Performance Questionnaire in a

WORD format.

DEC Contracting is requesting additional time to complete the PPQ and have our references complete them and return to you by email. Currently the deadline for returning these to you is July 15th, 2019 and we are concerned that is not enough time to coordinate the completion of these forms by multiple clients of DEC Contracting Group, Inc.

The Past Performance Questionnaires may be submitted up until the Proposal due date of Juluy 30, 2019 at 4:00 PM MDT.

Hope this email finds you well, this project came across my desk and my firm is already submitting a proposal for materials testing to a contractor bidding on the project but wondering if you will also need an Asbestos Survey for the Demo permit as well as a proposal for Private Provider Inspections for the re-roof?

There is no asbestos in the building and NPS has the testing reports verifying this.

The roof was also tested, and no asbestos was found. The contractor should provide the 3rd party inspections as described in the specifications.

Tennant Coatings, Inc. (the third largest manufacturer and supplier of epoxy/resinous floor coatings) through one of our preferred contractor/installers would like to provide a bid for the Seamless Resinous/Epoxy Flooring for the Rehabilitate Flamingo Visitor Center using our line of products.

To what extent should concrete spalling be repaired.

Reference repairs identified in drawings for pricing purposes. The interior slabs and surfaces have to be repaired and prepped as necessary to support finishes. Given the timing and duration of the design, there could be additional spall repairs to be made, but the drawings should be priced as represented for the bidding exercise.
