81. Would it be possible to extend the contract completion time to greater than 60 days?

(Estimate 100 days)

At this time the ships operational commitments do not allow greater than 60-days for the entire work scope, to include the optional items, it is expected that the successful ship yards will be required to work multiple shifts (24-hrs a day and on all weekends and holidays)

82. Could MARAD extend both dates QUESTIONS (12/24/19) and BID DUE DATE (01/15/20)?
