About this file
This document contains questions for clarification regarding Solicitation #36C24124B0037 for the demolition construction of Buildings #2, 3, 4, 5, 13, and 14 at the VA Manchester, NH campus.
The key details are:
- The RFI references issues with the bid package contents, specifically the incorrect reference to block 14 instead of block 19 for acknowledging amendments.
- The VAAR 852.219-77 referenced in the Instruction to Offerors is outdated and has been replaced with VAAR 852.219-75 VA Notice of Limitations on Subcontracting - Certificate of Compliance for Services and Construction.
- Requests for information related to service feed locations, transformer schedules, medium voltage cabling, and asbestos containing materials (ACM) reports.
- Clarification that contractors should bid based solely on the ACM information provided during the solicitation, with the VA to provide a comprehensive ACM report and issue a change order if necessary prior to abatement.

Questions for Clarification
Solicitation# 36C24124B0037, VA Manchester, NH
D1: Bid Package Contents. The second bullet point references block 14 for acknowledgement of amendments. I believe this reference should be block 19.
Yes, you are correct. It should reference Block 19 instead of Block 14.
D2: VAAR 852.219-77. It states “The Bidder shall complete the Certificate of Compliance for Services and Construction located in the solicitation.” We were not able to find this document. Can one be provided?
VAAR 852.219-77 noted in the Instruction to Offerors is incorrect as that VAAR is outdated. It is replaced with 852.219-75 VA Notice of Limitations on Subcontracting - Certificate of Compliance for Services and Construction, which is provided and incorporated with this amendment.
D3: Need locations of all service feeds to the proposed buildings to demolished.
See sheets C003, CU401, CU402, CU403, CU404, and FA101.
D4: Need a copy of the campus transformer schedule and 4160V loops that feed said transformers.
Contracting will provide a copy of the document.
D5: Is it correct to assume that we will only be removing the 120/208 side conductors from the Service transformers.
Correct; regarding transformer T-5, 120/208 side to be removed, 4160 side to stay.
D6: If any medium voltage cabling needs to be reworked a system diagram will be needed and call cabling identified.
Formulate bid based on contents of construction documents. If there is a need to deviate from construction documents, VA will issue change orders, as necessary.
D7: Can Appendix A of the ACM report for each building be provided?
Contracting will provide a copy of the document.
D8: If Appendix A is not available are any quantities available?
Contracting will provide a copy of the document.
D9: Can we assume Bid only includes ACM found during initial testing? Even though Quantities are not given.
Contractors are to bid based solely on ACM information provided during solicitation. Prior to abatement, VA will provide winning contractor with comprehensive, up-to-date ACM report, and a change order will be issued, as necessary.
