36C26118B0015 Amendment 0008

RFI 24 – (Missed question: 5) Referencing the 36C26119B0015-000.doc, Statement of Work for Construction Services, Section 4: Administrative, specifically 4.4 (page 4 of 52): ”… The contractor’s proposal will list the breakdown of all materials and labor and time required to complete the above-mentioned work.” Please confirm if this is required to be submitted with the proposal.

RFI 24 Answer: (Previously missed question) Yes, the division of costs is an attachment to the original solicitation and must be submitted with the bid package. This document assists in ensuring that the SDVOSB prime is meeting the required percentages in accordance with the FAR and VAAR, and supports audits of the contract file. A copy of the division of labor worksheet is attached to this amendment for your use.

RFI 25 - With amendment 7 came several attachments with regards to the second attachment titled: “Description: 36C26119B0015 0007 VA RENO MRI ADDEND#1 ELECTRICAL SHEETS.pdf”. Per my colleague these electrical sheets are not the same as the ones provided earlier. Are we to replace the ones from earlier to these from 03/04/19?

RFI 25 Answer – Per the Architect/Engineer Firm “At 9:41am this morning, I received the attached email from Dinter. These are the latest and greatest updated electrical drawings.”

Therefore, yes these replace the originals.

RFI 26 – Buy American clarification. At the walk you said you may put something out on that as well. I forgot to include that in my RFI. From what I gathered, I can buy my steel fittings from Graybar Reno or any supply house for that matter regardless of where they are made. Is that a correct statement? Otherwise, we will have to plug US fitting for a considerable premium to what we can buy locally. Please clarify this for me if you can.

RFI 26 Answer – Please refer to the clause 52.225-9 BUY AMERICAN CONSTRUCTION MATERIALSIn accordance with 41 U.S.C. 1907, the component test of the Buy American statute is waived for construction material that is a COTS item. (See FAR 12.505(a)(2)). COTS are Commercial Off The Shelf products.
