About this file

This document contains Questions and Answers related to the federal contract opportunity for the NM FS 141(1) South Fork Negrito Creek Bridge project.

The key details are as follows: The project involves replacing an existing bridge structure on Forest Route 141 in New Mexico. The contract completion date was established based on assumed mobilization in late May/early June, but the contract allows for additional days if snowfall prevents earlier access to the site. The contractor is permitted to begin offsite fabrication of the bridge structure early, in March, and bill for a portion of material costs, submittals, and partial mobilization prior to the anticipated September 2024 Notice to Proceed. The project is being solicited by the Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration.

Questions and Answers during Advertisement for NM FS 141(1) South Fork Negrito Creek Bridge

July 17, 2024

Questions Answers 1 Due to the elevation and location of the project, are there any provisions that will be allowed for additional days if the snowfall has not melted and we cannot get access to the site by May 12, 2025. Being very familiar with the area, there we several projects that we could access until the middle to the late end of June.

Mobilization to the site was assumed during late May into early June. The contract completion date was established based on those dates. The contract requirements allow earlier mobilization if favorable season conditions exist. Additional days may be provided if conditions do not allow mobilization as assumed, refer to Subsection 108.03 of the FP-14.

2 Since our onsite time is limited to the end of September, we would like to start the production of the bridge structure offsite, probably sometime in March, to meet the completion date. Will we be able to bill for a portion of the cost of materials for the bridge construction, submittals and partial mobilization?

A Notice to Proceed is anticipated for September 2024, the latest date for NTP is September 16, 2024 in FAR Clause 52.211-10. The intent of this schedule is to provide bridge submittal, review, and fabrication time.

Yes, you may bill in accordance with FAR 52.232-5 Payments under Fixed-Price Construction Contracts, and Subsection 109.08(f) Partial payments of the SCR’s.
