SITE VISIT

• There is a second site visit. It is not mandatory but all are welcome to attend. The date of the site visit located on page 23 of 77 in the solicitation is incorrect. The date stated now is 1/09/2018. The correct date is 1/09/2019.

• There are now badging requirements for this project. Local VA police have determined a daily sign in roster kept at the site trailer is stuffiest.

• Faculties has three main objectives when completing this project – 1- Safety, 2- Quality, and 3- Input to facilities

• Facilities wants to limit the impact to the WVAMC community during construction. Therefore, the amount of time on site for construction is limited to 270 days. However construction of the temporary gravel parking can begin when the NTP is issued.

• All attendees were shown the work area. All were also provided an opportunity to look where the temporary parking is to be constructed. But all present declined. The COR added all are welcome to walk the area on their own.

• The newly constructed perimeter road will be closed and dedicated to the construction contractor.

Q. Is this a best value requirement.

A. Yes. See the solicitation.

Q. Since this requirement was advertised in the past will new PPQs be required or can the old ones stand.

A. This is a new requirement with a new request for proposal number. New PPQs are required.

Q. Many RFIs were submitted and answered when this project was initially advertised some years ago. Are the RFIs and responses still valid or do new RFIs have to be resubmitted?

A. Faculties will research the drawings and specification and provide a response that will be included in a solicitation amendment.
