6923G226Q000017 - Questions

6923G226Q000017 Page 3 of 11

Flooring

1.1.8 – Can you define “acceptable limits”. Is there a technical reference? Who will decide if the limits are acceptable? Can you describe the process to obtain approval from manufacturer?

Response: Acceptable limits shall be as defined by the flooring manufacturer (Regupol or approved equal) for the specified system. Contractor shall test and comply with manufacturer’s published requirements and submit results to COR for review prior to mitigation. Installation must follow manufacturer instructions.

1.1.9.- Could you please clarify who is responsible for establishing the requirements for the scope of work labeled “as required'? If the scope of work is not clearly defined and it needs a post-award determination by a third party if work is required or not could you clarify how the requested fixed price should be determined? Understanding this will help ensure that all parties are aligned on expectations and responsibilities."

Response: These items shall be determined based on field conditions observed during construction and must be coordinated with the COR. Bidders shall include reasonable allowances typical for refurbishment work in an aged facility, not full reconstruction.

1.1.10- Could you please clarify who is responsible for establishing the requirements for the scope of work labeled “as necessary'? If the scope of work is not clearly defined and it needs a post-award determination by a third party if work is necessary or not could you clarify how the requested fixed price should be determined? Understanding this will help ensure that all parties are aligned on expectations and responsibilities."

Response: These items shall be determined based on field conditions observed during construction and must be coordinated with the COR. Bidders shall include reasonable allowances typical for refurbishment work in an aged facility, not full reconstruction.

1.1.11- "Can you specify the level of expectation regarding the 'repair ALL cracks' requirement? Specifically, could you provide details on the number, dimensions, and types of cracks to be addressed? This information will help us accurately scope and plan the repairs.

Response: Repair is limited to visible, active, or installation-impacting defects necessary to achieve a sound, uniform substrate suitable for flooring installation, not cosmetic repair of all hairline cracking.

6923G226Q000017 Page 4 of 11

1.1.16- Could you please clarify who is responsible for establishing the requirements for the scope of work labeled “required'? Understanding this will help ensure that all parties are aligned on expectations and responsibilities."

Response: These items shall be determined based on field conditions observed during construction and must be coordinated with the COR. Bidders shall include reasonable allowances typical for refurbishment work in an aged facility, not full reconstruction.

Masonry

1.1.1 – Can you define the number of column bases?

Response: Contractor shall verify field conditions. Scope is limited to repair of existing column bases observed within work areas, not replacement or structural reconstruction.

HVAC

1.2. 3- Could you please clarify who is responsible for establishing the requirements for the scope of work labeled “as necessary'? If the scope of work is not clearly defined and it needs a post-award determination by a third party if work is necessary or not could you clarify how the requested fixed price should be determined?

1.3.3 – Please confirm that the requirement labeled “provide all required means of egress in accordance with NFPA 101” is limited to electrical systems and that architectural or structural modifications are not required in the scope of work.

Response: Requirement is limited to electrical scope only (lighting, exit signs, emergency power). No structural or architectural reconfiguration is required.

1.3.4- Could you please clarify who is responsible for establishing the requirements for the scope of work labeled “as necessary'? If the scope of work is not clearly defined and it needs a post-award determination by a third party if work is necessary or not could you clarify how the requested fixed price should be determined?

6923G226Q000017 Page 5 of 11 and accessories are inaccessible and cannot be “ensured” or guaranteed for compliance with NFPA 70, will there be a modification to the scope of work?

Response: Work is limited to accessible systems within project areas. If concealed conditions prevent verification or compliance, contractor shall notify COR. Any major upgrades beyond visible/accessed systems may be handled via modification.

Miscellaneous

1.4.2 - "In light of the substantial price difference between repairing or replacing doors, could you clarify how the requested fixed price should be determined? Should we assume, the door will be replaced in our price estimate? Additionally, can you establish the process for assessing the condition of the door for the use? Will the General Contractor have the authority to make that determination? This will help that both parties have a mutual understanding and agreement on the implications between repair or replace." Can you confirm that the door frame will be reutilized?

Response: Repair and reuse is the baseline expectation. Replacement only where doors are non-functional, unsafe, or non-compliant. Contractor shall carry pricing for typical refurbishment conditions—not full replacement. Frames to remain where serviceable

1.4.3 - Could you please clarify who is responsible for establishing the requirements for the scope of work labeled “as required'?

Understanding this will help ensure that all parties are aligned on expectations and responsibilities." Please confirm that if the assigned authority does not establish the requirement for door replacement, the government has confirmed that the required hardware retrofits can be performed.

Response: COR will make final determination. If door is retained, contractor shall perform required hardware updates to provide operational condition.

1.4.4- Please confirm that the government has confirmed that the existing plywood panel to be refurbished is an appropriate material to resist outdoor weather conditions with the specified finishing method.

Response: Assume removal via existing openings with standard disassembly as needed.

3.2.3 - Item 3.2.2 requires that the configuration and lay-out conform with the attached lay-out. However 3.2.3 requires that the final lay-out and configuration is approved by the COR. Has the COR approved the attached lay-out referred to in 3.2.2.? Both items seem to be contradictory. Can you please clarify?

Response: The attached layout is conceptual. Final layout requires COR approval prior to fabrication, which governs.

3.2.4- Can you define the electrical requirements of each locker? Do they require power?

Can you define the locker attachment method to the wall? Can you define the floor level tolerance for the installation of the lockers?

To ensure we fully understand the requirement regarding restoring the integrity of the masonry wall, could you please provide additional details on the specific standards or criteria you expect for this restoration? Clarifying these expectations will help us accurately assess the work needed to achieve the desired outcome and ensure that all parties are aligned."

Response: Standard cement-based patching/grout compatible with CMU, used to restore integrity and finish continuity—not structural rebuilding.

Visitor Bathroom

4.1.2- Could you please specify what you mean by 'proper floor drainage'? It would be helpful to understand the standards, dimensions, and design elements you expect to ensure effective drainage and to address any potential issues.
