CONTINUATION OF STANDARD FORM 30
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS AMENDMENT
| 1. | Question: What time frame can we conduct Lawn Maintenance activities during the day? i.e. 0700-1700? |
| Answer: There is leniency for when the mowing/measures can be done during business hours. Advance notice should be given to the CO/COR of time of services, so approval can be determined. | |
| 2. | Question: The bid states that payment would be made “Monthly in Arrears” but how will the snow removal and ice service be paid? |
| Answer: The awarded CLINs for each period of performance will be paid monthly in arrears. | |
| 3. | Question: The CLIN provided has both lawn care and snow removal all in one. How many snow removals are expected during a given year and how deep is the snow during each removal? In previous contracts we’ve seen the Government have a range of CLINs that would accommodate for varying depths of snow. For each depth there would be a certain number of CLIN’s available and if they ran out before the end of the contract then the COR would request more. |
| Answer: A 1/2” trigger for snow removal. Pricing should be based on average snowfall per year. Additional service may be requested by CO/COR for freezing rain, and freeze/thaw cycles. If staging areas for removed snow become overwhelmed the contractor will be required to haul away snow to free up space. The location is across the street, but must be approved by the CO/COR. | |
| 4. | Question: With the way the contract is currently written we’re not sure how many snow removals you are expecting throughout the contract? |
| Answer: 1/2” trigger for snowfall, as well as icy conditions. Based on average snowfall. | |
| 5. | Question: What was the previous contract awarded price? |
| Answer: The awarded price/scope was included in a larger O&M contract. | |
| 6. | Question: Who was the previous service provider for this contract? |
| Answer: Rowe Contracting Services Inc/ Valley View Lawn and Landscaping | |
| 7. | Question: Has anything changed in the SOW from the previous contract? |
| Answer: No | |
| 8. | Question: Will all sprinkler repairs be paid for outside of this contract? |
| Answer: Minor repairs, and maintenance will be included. Examples: Pop-up sprinkler head replacement, solenoids, filter cleaning/replacement, coverage adjustment, and others. Rotor heads, digging for break fixes, programmable controller replacement, or upgrades to existing landscaping will be billed separately with CO/COR’s written approval. |
