AMENDMENT A0O06

REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI)

SUBJECT: Response to Request for Information (RFI) | IFB Sol No. 36C78620B0028 | Culpeper National Cemetery | Columbarium, Facility Renovation, Improvements, Repairs, and Pre-Placed Crypts | Project No. 839CM3028 & 839CM3030.

16 – A requirement to stabilize all disturbed areas outside the paving and laydown areas (but still within the limits of construction) with sod by the end of each shift would be extremely labor intensive and costly. Please confirm this requirement applies only to areas outside of BMP erosion controls (outside of limits of construction).

This applies only to areas outside of the limits of construction.

#29-#35 – In general, we feel the bidders should be provided an updated cost schedule addressing some of the VA’s responses to RFIs (RFI 27 response, Contract Line Item Quantity is 1,000 niches; RFI 34 and

35 response, there is no columbarium cap replacement required for this contact, remove option

#6). The terminology in some of the options make it hard to determine scope and we feel your answer for Question 33 is insufficient to identify the scope items. The intent of the options is to get a cost breakdown in fees for these construction elements, break out costs with roll up cost detail for each of these option elements, you are overthinking what the options are, we most likely will award all options and CLINS listed.

Examples:

-Bid option 1&7 = Are these per the drawing requirements, or in addition to items called out in drawings? Some items in drawings called out as options but are not complete. Everything in the Scope is on the drawings.

-Bid option 2 = Concrete is not shown in drawings anywhere, including existing or new. Is it all storm sewers, or only pertaining to that affected area? We have no information on that area at all, including Storm Sewer, if any. If it is not on the drawings it is not in the scope of work.

-Bid option 3 = Any additional detail will be helpful as none found in drawings. Area or qty? If it is not in the drawings it is not in the scope of work.

-Bid option 5 = Is this all Storm Sewer from project? What is included base and what is option? Does this have potential to not be included in with award? It seems it has to be as DEQ would not allow. If its not included must we include additional curbs/stabilizations where storm is not present? If it is not in the drawings it is not in the scope of work.

-Bid option 6 = Should be eliminated or changed with supporting information per RFI #34 and 35 response. There is no removal of stone columbarium caps in this project.

-Bid Option 8 = There are 7 connections to existing storm sewer. Does this option only include the connections, no pipe or structures? If it is not in the drawings it is not in the scope of work, we do have storm water pipes and fittings to be installed as per drawings.
