The purpose of this amendment is to:
1. Respond to vendor questions.
Vendor questions in bold, VHA responses in red.
See updated Statement of Work (SOW) below.
1. The Statement of Work calls for furnishing an HVAC air compressor and accessories, and the salient characteristics describe the compressor itself. Could you confirm what is included in "accessories"? Specifically, is the requirement the compressor package alone, or does it also include items such as a dryer, a receiver tank, filtration, or connection hardware? This affects how offers are priced and compared.
The requirement is for the compressor package alone. The system has a filter, dryer and receiver tank in place already, only item needed is the compressor package
2. The salient characteristics require the compressor be compatible with the Metasys system. Building automation systems typically integrate over BACnet or Modbus. Is native BACnet or Modbus capability on the compressor controller required, or is an external protocol gateway acceptable to satisfy the Metasys compatibility requirement?
Native BACnet or Modbus capability on the compressor controller is required.
3. Is the Metasys system compatible with Modbus RTU?
The Metasys system is compatible with Modbus
4. Please define what is compatible with a Metasys System?
The Modbus or BacNet are compatible with a Metasys System.
5. What air filters do they want as accessories?
None, currently have in system, just replacing current compressor. Removed air filters from SOW.
6. Do they want a spare oil filter and air filter?
No.
7. Do they want one or two mainline filters?
No.
2. Clarifying that the KRSD25-115-VSD air compressor is not Buy in America Act (BAA) compliant and any offer must include an air compressor that is BAA compliant (i.e. manufactured in the United States of America). Leaving it in the SOW as it does have all of the necessary salient characteristics other than being BAA compliant.
