About this file

This document is a request for information (RFI) response regarding an upgrade elevators project at a Department of Veterans Affairs facility in Marion, Indiana. The RFI response provides clarification requested by a contractor on several specification and drawing details for the project. Specifically, it clarifies that Federal, State, and Local Taxes clause FAR 52.229-3 applies, corrects lighting fixture designations on certain drawings, and confirms that unspecified fixtures on one drawing are also to be replaced with LED fixtures. It further explains that the solicitation requires a single total bid amount rather than separate bids for general construction, electrical, and mechanical work as stated in the specifications. Finally, it states that no deductive bid is required as an alternate for elevator P-16 as listed in the specifications but not included in the solicitation form.

2. On drawing EP502 details 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 Note 1 says replace with type L2 LED 4’ light fixture, I did not see a L2 light fixture.

Please clarify.

3. On drawing EP502 detail 3, the light fixtures are not marked.

Does that mean they have already been switched out to LED light fixtures? Please clarify.
