ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

1. The 4 Add alternates are missing from the Price / Cost Schedule (copy/pasted below). If pricing for any add alternates are required, please issue by amendment, a revised Price / Cost Schedule reflecting Specification Section 01 00 00-3 Paragraph 1.3 Statement of Bid items (copy/pasted below) and any applicable Amendment #4 changes to the 4 alternates. Please also see question #2 below. Answer: See attached revised Price/Cost Schedule starting on page 6.

1. Amendment #4 revised plan sheet GI0.2 (copy/pasted below) indicates replacement of Patient Room Floors is now part of Add Alternate #4. This work was formerly described as Patient Room Doors, not Patient Room Floors. Is this a typo? Other portions of the drawings and specs still indicate replacement of patient room doors is part of alternate #4. Bidders could now interpret the current alternate #4 requirement to include replacement of Patient Room Floors, Patient Room Doors and Patient Room Door Hardware. If this is not a correct interpretation, please clarify otherwise by amendment. If bidders are required to provide any add alternate pricing, please provide a revised price/cost schedule by amendment.

ANSWER: See attached document “671-20-122-Renovate CLC 2nd Floor Halls and Walls-Addendum No1.pdf” for corrected version of this.

1. If the Price/Cost schedule is not revised by amendment, we understand that only base bid pricing is to be provided and bidders should not include pricing for the 4 add alternates. If this is not a correct understanding, please clarify otherwise by providing a revised price/cost schedule by amendment. Answer: See attached revised Price/Cost Schedule starting on page 6.

1. The plans and specifications do not identify the presence of asbestos and Amendment #4 asbestos survey shows no asbestos detected. We assume that asbestos testing is not required unless contractor suspects and encounters asbestos during the course of construction. Any asbestos found during construction will be treated as a differing site condition.

Answer: This assumption is correct. Testing is not required unless the Contractor suspects or encounters asbestos, at which time the COR shall be notified prior to the testing being ordered.

See attached document: 671-20-122-Renovate CLC 2nd Floor Halls and Walls-Addendum No1-revised.
