Q1. Do the directional arrows (line item 3) require reflective beads?

A1. See SOW section 2.0 item A

Q2. Are all the lines included with line item 4 street paving and requiring reflective beads?

A2. See SOW section 2.0 item A

Q3. Is there an average length for crosswalk?

A3. The VA’s roads and parking lots are to be considered of average width and length and are constructed to code. Crosswalks should be priced per lane. Therefore, if the VA is requesting a two lane road (4 lanes all together), have a new crosswalk painted on it, that would be quantity 4.

Q4. Are handicap hatches considered with line item 4? I don't see a separate line item for hatches.

A4. 4-inch lines shown on sheet C-301 detail 16

Q5. Is the prime contractor and subcontractor required to submit the OSHA 300 and OSHA 300A, as well as our EMR rating? Or just the subcontractor ? If either parties do have to submit these logs, can we just submit the summary page ?

A5. Refer to page 25 of 74 in solicitation/ GLAC to answer

Q6. Can any work be done during normal daytime work shifts?

A6. Refer to SOW section 8

Q7. The parking space lines are specified to be alkyd or latex paint. Low VOC solvent-based paint is more durable and commonly used for pavement marking. Can Low VOC solvent-based paint be used on parking stripes?

A7. Refer to WIDOT specifications per SOW section 3; specifically, WIDOT Approved Products list: Pavement Marking/Delineators/Flexible Tubular Markers 2019

Q8. What does Item Number 0007, White Paint Striping Per Statement of Work, Quantity 30.00 EA include? The specifics of that line item are not provided. Is it hatched areas?

A8. This only applies to the option years as maintenance for up to 30 white lines per option year.

Q9. Which of the work items in the Price/Cost Schedule should include reflective beads in the paint?

A9. See SOW section 2.0 item A.

Q10. Do additional costs such as sweeping, pressure washing, supervision, and traffic control need to be included in the unit costs for each of the eight items on the “Price/Cost Schedule”?

A10. Refer to SOW section 2.0 item B.

Q11. There are no requirements indicated for removal of existing paint. In areas that have been previously painted will the new paint be applied over the old or does the paint need to be removed?

A11. Refer to SOW section 3.0 item B.

Q12. On page 44 of the solicitation the number of days to complete the work is “TBD”. What is the period of performance for the work?

A12. It is anticipated that each year’s task order will be awarded around May 1st. Once award is made the contractor will have a twenty-day pre-construction phase in which the contractor must do at least the following:

1. Submit bonds

1. Submit a schedule

1. Schedule and have pre-construction meeting with VA at a mutually agreeable time.

The construction phase shall begin after the twenty-day pre-construction phase and it is estimated that the construction phase shall be between 15-45 calendar days (depending on each order). Some orders could have more work to do and would be closer to 45 calendar days, while other years could include less work and would have a shorter period of performance.

Once completed and the VA accepts the work, a 15 day post-substantial completing phase will begin. In this phase, the contractor can dispose of their bonds for the task order and submit the final invoice.
