The purpose of this amendment is to post solicitation questions. See questions below.

CONTINUATION PAGE

Questions:

1. We need to know how many sprinkler systems and type (such as wet, dry or preaction) are in each building to complete our labor estimates. Providing the last inspection report prior to the project being due would be ideal.

Last year inspection report is attached to amendment 0001

2. We need to know the total number of fire and smoke dampers that require testing per building. Providing the last inspection report prior to the project being due would be ideal. Last year inspection report is attached to amendment 0001

3. . Is prevailing wage required for this project? If so, please provide the correct rates. A wage determination is within the solicitation.

4. Will we need to use containment tents in any of these buildings to complete our work? no

5.What are the self-performance percentages for the SDVOSB on this project? SDVOSB must perform at least 50% of work.

5. Are the fire doors being tested under a separate contract? I don’t see that they need to be included in our scope of work. No fire doors are not being tested.

6.On page 11 of 74 ,Paragraph 4 PARTS in the solicitation, Does this requirement indicate that the contractor would be responsible to provide any and all materials that were proven to be defective during the annual inspection period of the Fire Suppression at a maximum cost to the contractor of 2500.00? All cost beyond that would be the VA responsibility?

To clear up the confusion, the VA will cover parts and material up to $2,500. If the repair goes over $2,500 the contractor will quote the cost and we will issue a task .

7: It also mentions for each occurrence. What is the time period for each occurrence.

Around 1-2 occurrence per year. This part would fall under the emergency repairs.
