This amendment to solicitation number 36C24218B0051, project number 526-14-105 Clean and Reseal Exterior of Building 101 and 105 is to provide clarification to several RFI responses posted on 12/15/17.

Please refer to the continuation page for the RFI clarifications.

The bid due date is scheduled for Wednesday December 20, 2017 at 2:00 PM EST

The bid opening will be held at the James J. Peters VAMC, 130 West Kingsbridge Road, Room 9B-19, Bronx NY 10468.

No further clarifications will be provided.

Richard Adu Contracting Officer Clarification to RFI for 526-14-105 Clean and Reseal Building 101 and 105 Question:

Amendment no. 00003 states that "Man doors, Roll up and Garage type doors are to be replaced regardless of condition" -- Please issue specifications for these doors.

Answer:

VA does not believe all doors will be replaced but all prospective bidders should include a $50,000.00 line item allowance just in case any door actually needs to be replaced. All or the remainder of the $50,000.00 line item allowance will be credited back to the government depending on whether a door is replaced or not.

Question:

Amendment no. 00002 response to question no. 8 states that "Video surveillance is not allowed in lieu of unarmed guards, unless approved in writing by the VA" ---- Agency should inform and clarify before the bid if it will be approved because there is a huge cost involved and all contractors should bid on same page.

Answer:

Surveillance camera is optional and security guards are not required if contractor’s items are in their own secured fenced in and locked area. VA has a police force on campus for VA property protection and they patrol the grounds.

Security and surveillance camera could be approved only if stationary (no sweeping from side to side type) and only if it does not capture Veterans and staff images outside the “staging” area. For example, camera narrowly pointing to the entrance of construction trailer.

Question:

Amendment no. 00002 response to question no. 13 states that "VA shall provide information on where the slate tile was ordered to match existing" -- Please provide this information before the bid.

Answer:

The following info is provided as it is. VA does not have the original supplier information for the slate tile. The company VA purchased slate tiles in the past but not sure of their status is:

Graham Restoration Co., Inc.

59-45 56th Avenue Maspeth, NY 11378

(212) 925-9630

Approved suitable substitute is acceptable.

Question:

Amendment no. 00002, question/response # 5 states that "The entire building will be cleaned (part 1 ) using 2010 all surface cleaner by Prosoco, then sealed (part ) using stone sealer # 6 by Stone Technologies ...." ---- We feel this response is not correct as this is a stone cleaner and cannot be used for aluminum and steel surfaces. Please clarify.

Answer:

Prosoco is only for concrete/masonry as specified under Specs Sections 03-0100 and 04-0100. For metal, see Specs Section 05-0150.

See Drawings 101-AS-1, 101-AS-2, 105-AS-1, 105-AS-2, 105-AS-3, and 105-AS-4 for surface care tables reference specs sections, with only Building 101 East Elevation shown below.
