The scope of work includes rental of a 100' x 210' tent, a 60' x 80' tent, and flooring for three tents without carpet. Questions are due by March 24 and quotes by April 1 via email.

1. My company provided the rentals for the 2014 COC. The scope of work was very similar except the 100'x210' tent was a pole tent that was staked in the ground and the 60'x80' was a structure tent. Did the requirements change or was there a typo on the SOW?

A pole tent is also acceptable. Please see the amended SOW.

2. If they have any maps or layouts that would be helpful as well.

See below from 2018 event.

3. Do you have any information on the timeline they are giving us for install/strike? They sate everything must be completed by 5/23, but don’t give info on when we can start.

Contractor may start whenever they need to based on the work that must be accomplished.

4. Details on walkways, they just state “walkway” but no info on length, are these floors only or covered?

I don’t have the specifics on length of walkways but you may choose to set up a site visit to take measurements.

5. Please clarify what they are wanting/expecting for “hard flooring (no carpet)”

The ground under the three tents that require flooring will be grass, contractor can recommend something appropriate for flooring but we do not want carpet.

6. Rain gutters? Are these tents connected to something or each other?

The SOW calls for rain gutters to ensure that in the event of rain, the water is directed off the tent appropriately-any design that accommodates that need is appropriate/acceptable.

7. Are the tent sites in the same locations as they were in 2014? If so, either style tent would only work for the 100'x210' tent, the 60'x80' would have to be a frame/structure style tent because it can not be staked next to the building. Is it possible to schedule a site visit before the RFQ due date?

This is the same site as the 2014 event. The 60’x80’ cannot be staked into the hard surface outside the building. Yes, I can accommodate a site visit, please contact me directly sarah.e.rodino@uscg.mil mailto:sarah.e.rodino@uscg.mil
