RFP Q&A Doc for Blackwell HVAC Project

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS REGARDING:

SOLICITATION/REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS NO. AG-82A7-S-17-0004

for Dining/Career Prep HVAC Modification

Blackwell Job Corps Civilian Conservation Center

QUESTIONS RECEIVED AS OF 12/27/2016:

1. This project will require a fair amount of carpentry and finish work. I am unable to find a suitable subcontractor willing to work this project. Is it possible to eliminate the white sheet requirements on the project? Do you have any suggestions?

ANSWER: The Government will not amend the solicitation to remove project requirements. That said, offerors in this type of situation may consider two alternatives:

1) Offerors may propose an alternative method of completing the required work. That is, if there is some other way you could meet the requirement, but it would require a change to drawings and/or specifications, propose it and price for the alternative method.

2) If there is no alternative, submit a proposal for the rest of the project.

For either alternative, such proposals shall clearly identify why the acceptance of the proposal would be advantageous to the Government. Any deviations from the terms and conditions of the solicitation, as well as any advantage to the Government, shall be clearly identified and explicitly defined. The Government reserves the right to amend the solicitation after the closing date to allow all offerors who submitted proposals an opportunity to submit revised proposals based on any revised requirements.

QUESTIONS RECEIVED AS OF 11/14/2016:

2. Regarding the Instrumentation and Control for HVAC section (spec section 23 09 00) under the products section of this specification, it reads basis of design by Honeywell Spyder LonWorks with a note that comparable products may be provided. Are we allowed to submit a proposal using a different manufacturer’s controls?

ANSWER: Yes, as long as the proposed equipment performs the sequence of operations specified and meets all specification requirements.
