1. Amendment A00001 is hereby incorporated into RFQ number 36C244-18-Q-0066 and shall become part of any resultant Purchase Order. This amendment contains the following information:

a. List of attending vendors at site visit.

b. Contractor Questions and Government Answers

2. The following vendors attended the site visit held at the Philadelphia VAMC on Friday, December 1, 2017:

Reuter Hanney aEONRG, LLC Wescott Electric Co MacDonald Electric SDV Services

3. The following are responses to all contractor submitted questions and Government answers received in response to this RFQ:

Question 1: Building 16 Main Switchgear - lists Qty of 13 – 15 KV Circuit Breakers. There were a total of 14 breakers in the lineup. Are we omitting one of the breakers or should we change the count to 14?

Answer 1: There seems to be some confusion in your question. Building 16 does not states a Qty of 13 -15 KV Circuit Breakers. The Statement of Work (SOW) indicates for Building 6 that there is only a Qty of 13 – 15 KV Circuit Breakers to be cleaned and tested under this requirement. That is all that is required in Building 6. The additional breaker that may have been seen in Building 6 is for a future generator that does not exist at this time and is NOT part of this requirement.

Question 2: Building 16 Main Switchgear - 15 KV breakers are controlled by various Multilin Protective Relays (489, 750, 350). Are we to also service and test these associated relays as a part of the work?

Answer 2: To clarify, it appears as if this question is referring to Building 6also. These relays are not part of this requirement as they use proprietary software only available through another company. Therefore, these are NOT to be cleaned and tested as part of this requirement.

Question 3: Is all work to be completed on weekends or are weekday nights an option? If weekends only, should we base our bids on a 50/50 split of Sat/Sun?

Answer 3: The Statement of Work (SOW) indicates that “Work will be completed after normal working hours.” This includes both weeknights and weekends (Saturday and Sunday). There are several substations being cleaned. A few of them can be done in the evenings during the week. The substation that feeds the OR will have to be done on a weekend since it is critical and will have to make sure there are no operations scheduled for that weekend we do the work. Vendors should take this into account on building their quote.

4. The due date for this RFQ is NOT extended.
