Page 14, Section D (a) 1. Volume I, Factor 1, Project Execution (Non-Price) shall be replaced in its entirety with the revised version below:

1. Volume I, Factor 1, Project Execution (Non-Price):

Provide a Draft Project Schedule:

Prepare and submit a practicable construction schedule showing all necessary work elements to complete the project identified under this solicitation. The schedule must be in the form of a progress chart of suitable scale to indicate appropriately the percentage of work scheduled for completion by any given date during the performance period. The submitted schedule must be developed using project scheduling software such as MS Project, Primavera, or any other comparable form.

Each Offeror's construction schedule must address the following:

· VA’s key project milestones listed in the solicitation.

· Multiple VAMC locations of work.

· Order of work elements to include project phasing; work elements that shall be shown on the schedule for each site; Submittals, Mobilization, Demolition, Construction, Punch List, De-Mobilization.

· Number of days for each work element

· Identification of long lead time materials

· Identification of separate work elements

· The VA’s review and approval or RFI’s, Submittals and other pertinent documents.

· Interruption of VA Facilities utilities, delivery of Government furnished equipment, rough-in drawings, project phasing and any other specification requirements.

The proposed schedule must include the activities which are consistent with those described within the project specifications and drawings and must not exceed the Government's maximum allowable performance period, as noted in Block 11 of the SF 1442. The project will start at the issuance of the Notice to Proceed. For scheduling purposes, assume the Notice to Proceed will be issued ten (10) calendar days after the award date. (Note that there is no guarantee the Notice to Proceed will be issued within this timeframe.)

Page 16, Section F. Evaluation of Offerors (a) 1. Factor 1, Project Execution (Non-Price) shall be replaced in its entirety with the revised version below:

1. Factor 1, Project Execution (Non-Price):

Will be evaluated relative to overall coordination of the multi-site construction project, to include ability to identify all necessary work elements of the specific project, phasing and the Offerors ability to schedule the activities in a logical sequence and within the time required in this solicitation.
