ANSWERS TO SUBMITTED QUESTIONS:

QUESTION #1:

Please confirmed this acquisition is Unrestricted as mentioned in box 10 and SDVOSB firm/contractor is not a requirement.

ANSWER #1:

Confirmed Unrestricted.

QUESTION #2:

Currently there is a scarcity of temporary chillers, temporary chiller may not be available from August 8th and may take few more days for rental. Please confirm this is acceptable.

ANSWER #2:

Your quote should notate timeframes of when you will be able to provide it onsite to facility and a fully operational date. We can allow for an extra day or two but will need the information available in the proposal.

QUESTION #3:

Solicitation page 40 Evaluation factor 2 states the contractor’s firm must regularly perform security alarm system services detailed in the SOW. --- There is no work of security alarm system in this project.

ANSWER #3:

That wording or any mention of security alarm system is now removed from the solicitation.

QUESTION #4:

Solicitation page 40 lists Evaluation Factor 4 – VETERANS INVOLVEMENT (if applicable) --- Please confirm this is not applicable.

ANSWER #4:

Its applicable per VAAR 852.215-70.

QUESTION #5:

Solicitation page 40 lists Evaluation Factor 1 – TECHNICAL CAPABILITY point no.2 states Electrician must be licensed by NY Department of Buildings to perform electrical work in New York City. --- Requesting to waive off this requirement as this is a federal government project.

ANSWER #5:

This Technical Factor 1 requirement has been removed and replaced with Page 1, Box 14, #3 Description. (Please follow those new instructions). The electrician does not need to be licensed but must be able to perform work in the PWS, this will need to be detailed and explained within the new Technical Capability submission requirement.

QUESTION #6:

Bid bond is not required as this is service contract.
