Questions and Answers from the Site Visit
1. Is NICET certification a requirement?
The PWS indicates 'or equivalent,' meaning NICET certification is not mandatory. The focus is on finding experienced and qualified technicians for the tasks at hand.
2. Why was the solicitation changed to remove the list of repair needs?
The repair items list that was removed is considered routine maintenance, which would complicate the bidding process if included. Regular maintenance will be covered under the Performance Work Statement, while any significant repairs beyond routine maintenance will be addressed through a contract modification. A list of repair needs will be provided after award.
3. Fire water pumps:
Documented proof of the NFPA 25 five-year inspection and maintenance requirements is currently unavailable. Planning for this will be necessary in the Base Year.
4. Test plans and drawings:
Previous CO2/clean agent suppression system test plans and relevant drawings will be available for review after the contract is awarded.
5. Fire alarm notifications monitoring:
Auto dialers are used to automatically call the Folsom Powerplant Control Room.
