AMENDMENT A0001

February 14, 2022

Project: Replace Chemistry Analyzer Project Number: 676-20-004 Location: Tomah VA Medical Center, Tomah, WI

Amendment 0001 hereby incorporates the following clarifications/change(s) into the solicitation package.

Solicitation RFI’s/Questions and Answers A.

1. How are debris to be removed from the project limits? In covered carts via the elevator outside the hours of 0700-1645.

2. Will the elevators be able to be utilized for moving materials? Normal hours or off-tour hours? Yes - outside the hours of 0700-1645.

3. Will the STARC Systems Fireblockwall system barrier be the only approved Infection control barrier? Other VA sites are allowing the extensive use of lower cost systems such as the STARC LiteBarrier system or the RealWall system. They are fire retardant but the space is covered by fire sprinklers. 1-HR is required. VA Fire Protection design guide requires an Hour. The exceptions are as follows: Not required if functioning sprinklers on both sides– just need smoke barrier up to deck – poly would work for this. Or if ‘short term’ 30 days or less (NFPA) if sprinklers are only on one side – poly OK.

4. Will the STARC system be required at every location shown? Some of these areas have shorter duration work occurring in them, would poly barriers be sufficient for a 1-3 day operation, for example? This is a lab environment and the barrier is required for each phase. Refer to response to question 3.

5. Can you provide a “basis of design or intent” for the temporary protective roof boards on the roof to the temporary HVAC unit? The protective boards are intended only to protect the roof during construction. It will be removed once the work is completed.

6. In room 2055C, the reflected ceiling plan shows ACT ceiling, it is currently sheetrock and nothing shows to demo existing and replace with ACT. What is correct, hard ceiling or ACT? 2055C has a hard lid ceiling
