About this file
This is an Addendum One issued by the Georgia World Congress Center Authority (GWCCA) Purchasing Office on February 17, 2022, clarifying requirements for the Escalator Restorative Cleaning Project RFP (GWCCA020222EC). The project scope involves aesthetic cleaning of visible surfaces on escalator treads, risers, rails, and landings across 71 escalators at the facility. The addendum explicitly confirms that the work is limited to surface cleaning and does not include step removal, truss cleaning, chain adjustment and lubrication, or pressure washing of internal components. Prospective bidders were afforded the opportunity to survey all 71 escalators to assess their current condition by contacting Erle Coleman at 404-852-3066 to schedule a site visit. A signed acknowledgement of the addendum was required to be received by the GWCCA office prior to the proposal due date or attached to the submission.
The addendum addresses a critical concern raised during the pre-bid meeting regarding oil staining on escalator steps that appears to originate from gearbox leaks. GWCCA clarified that mechanical repairs and preventive maintenance of vertical transportation systems are handled through a separate ongoing maintenance agreement, and therefore are not part of this cleaning project scope. Bidders should note that the Authority imposed a communication restriction throughout the solicitation period, prohibiting contact with Authority staff or officials except through formal question submissions as outlined in the RFP. Violation of this communication restriction could result in rejection of a respondent's submittal.

ADDENDUM ONE
GEORGIA WORLD CONGRESS CENTER AUTHORITY
ESCALATOR RESTORATIVE CLEANING PROJECT
RFP GWCC020222EC
Addendum Issue Date: February 17, 2022
From: Georgia World Congress Center Authority
Purchasing Office
285 International Boulevard NW
Atlanta, Georgia 30313
Addendum 1 is hereby issued to incorporate the following as requirements of the Request for Proposal, GWCCA020222EC
Can you please confirm that it is the expectation of GWCC that ONLY the surfaces of the escalator steps & treads will be cleaned? In some cases an escalator clean-down includes step removal and complete cleaning of trusses, well ways, adjust & lubrication of chains, pressure washing of steps, etc. We simply want to confirm that this is not the expectation. We are looking for an aesthetic cleaning of the visible surfaces of the escalator treads, risers, and rails and landings.
Based on our brief survey of a few units during the pre-bid meeting, it appeared that some of the staining on the steps is coming from oil leaking from the escalator gearbox.
Have any repairs been completed recently that would correct these leaks? If not, it will only be a matter of time before the staining reappears. We have an ongoing maintenance service that includes consist monitoring, repairs, and preventive maintenance of all of our vertical transportation systems. Any mechanical issues will be address through that agreement.
Will there be an opportunity to survey all 71 escalators to gain a better understanding of their current condition? Yes, please give Erle Coleman a call at 404-852-3066 to arrange a date and time.
This addendum will be a part of RFQ GWCCA020222EC and modifies the original proposal documents dated February 2, 2022 as noted.
NOTE: A signed acknowledgement of this addendum should be received by this office prior to the due date or should be attached to your proposal. A signature on this addendum does not constitute your signature on the original proposal document.
