2. Questions

Question: Will a copy of the slide deck be distributed from the Pre-Proposal meeting?

Response: Yes, it is included in this addendum.

Question: Do you know how many firms are planned to be shortlisted?

Response: Per PPM CW-O-048, DOA must shortlist two (2) more firms than would selected. For this RFP, up to five firms will be shortlisted.

Question: Is this RFP for consulting work only?

Response: Yes.

Question: Does DOA anticipate needing extension staff to be physically present at the airport or is there flexibility for hybrid or fully remote staff?

Response: It depends on the task that is assigned.

Question: Does this scope include any after-hour consulting services?

Response: Potentially, all DOA airports operate a 24-hours per day, seven days per week.

Question: How would DOA like joint ventures to be presented in the RFP?

Response: If the joint venture is a teaming effort, only the Prime consultants should be presented in the RFP. If joint ventures are in a legal business arrangement, they may present the independent parties as one prime consultant.

Question: Whether a firm bidding solely on the Technology category under DOA 26-5 is required to be CCNA-certified prior to proposal submission.

Response: Information regarding the design consultant certification process is contained in Section V.E.

Question: If CCNA certification is required, the specific CCNA category designation the County will accept for technology consulting services under this solicitation (including whether the Department of Airports will sponsor a Category 13 designation).

Response: Information regarding the design consultant certification process is contained in Section V.E.

Question: Whether "applied to" status under RFP Section V.E. — i.e., a complete CCNA application submitted to Engineering & Public Works but not yet adjudicated — is sufficient at the time of proposal submission on June 9, 2026.

Response: Please refer to Article 11 of the Sample Contract for insurance requirements.

Question: On Page 4/11 (Page 5 of PDF) Section E – Evaluation Criteria – 2 the RFP states “Demonstrated understanding of the project and County’s goals and objectives.” Could you please provide a reference to the County’s goals and objectives so we can adequately address them in our response?
