About this file
This is Addendum 2 to Request for Proposals CDD-24-069 issued by the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community for a phased data recovery program at the Salt River Cemetery site. The addendum provides clarifications and responses to eight questions submitted by prospective bidders regarding proposal requirements, scope of work, and project timeline. Key clarifications include confirmation that Phase 1 of the project encompasses testing, data recovery, and construction monitoring, while Phase 2 data recovery will be contingent upon Phase 1 findings and will be the subject of a subsequent contract. Bidders are permitted to reference relevant experience from the previous Archaeology Services RFP or provide new information as appropriate, and CDD/EPNR personnel may be cited as client references. The technical approach to the scope of work should be addressed under the "Solution Design and Implementation" section of the proposal. The revised proposal due date has been extended to October 10, 2024, at 4:00 PM Arizona Time, and bids must be submitted via email to purchasing-bids@srpmic-nsn.gov. The Area of Potential Effects (APE) map is provided in an attached CDD/EPNR memorandum, with archaeological resources expected throughout the 10.4-acre project area.
Regarding pricing, the addendum clarifies that the previous Appendix B pricing format contained obsolete line items, including a Survey and Mapping task that should be disregarded. Bidders should create new line items for archaeological monitoring costs and may reference prior RFP submissions for Company Background, Qualifications and Experience, and Client References sections. Phase 2 data recovery cost estimates are not required at this time, as Phase 2 scope will be determined following Phase 1 testing results. No specific budget allocation, funding sources, set-asides, or incumbent information is addressed in this addendum. Bidders who have already submitted proposals need not resubmit unless they wish to modify their bid in response to the addendum clarifications; if no revised bid is received, the original submission will be evaluated.

SALT RIVER PIMA-MARICOPA INDIAN COMMUNITY
CDD-24-069 Salt River Cemetary Phased Data Recovery Addendum 2
This Addendum contains Q&A.
Q&A
1. Q: Can the due date for proposals be extended to two weeks from the date of response to RFP questions?
A: Due date has been extended to October 10, 2024 at 4pm Arizona Time
2. Q: Items 2.4.1.5 (Company and Relevant Background), 2.4.1.6 (Qualifications and Experience), and 2.4.1.8 (Client References) were previously included in the submittal for the on-call Archaeology Services RFP. Can the current response refer to that information or should the information be repeated for this request? If the information should be repeated for this response, can EPNR personnel be used as a client reference to show experience with similar previous work done for a Tribal community?
A: Use the information that best suits this particular project. I believe it is ok for CDD/EPNR personnel to be used as client references.
3. Q: What section of the response should include the technical approach to the scope of work (i.e., “Solution Design and
Implementation” as noted in the evaluation criteria established within Section 3.2)?
A: In order to be evaluated on the Solution Design and Implementation, I think the approach to the scope of work could be addressed under that section.
4. On the Appendix B Pricing format:
Q: What is included in the Survey and Mapping task?
A: We used the pricing sheet from a previous RFP, so the survey and mapping task can be ignored. Apologies for this one
Q: Where should hours and costs for archaeological monitoring be entered?
A: I’d suggest creating new line item for this.
Q: Where should hours and costs for Phase 2 data recovery fieldwork be entered?
A: Please see related request under Appendix A: Scope of Work regarding estimating Phase 2 data recovery costs. Phase 2 will be a new project based upon Phase 1 findings, so hours and costs not needed at this time.
5. The scope of work states that the bid will include testing, data recovery, and construction monitoring.
Q: Because Phase 2 data recovery will depend on the findings from testing, would you consider removing the Phase 2 data recovery cost estimate from this RFP to allow for a subsequent Phase 2 data recovery budget based on the testing results?
If a Phase 2 data recovery budget is needed at this time, please provide estimates for the following:
o Total area of stripping needed for Phase 2 data recovery o The full estimate of feature numbers by type to be identified during Phase 2 data recovery, including features that require full excavation versus sample excavation during Phase 2 data recovery o Total number of artifacts and samples by type to be analyzed and curated
A: This is only for Phase 1.
Q: Would you please provide an estimated number of person days for monitoring to use in the bid?
A: This will not be necessary until/unless determined Phase 2 is needed.
Q: Items 6 and 7. Are the total feature counts provided in these items applicable to the testing phase only, or do they represent the total count of features for all phases of work?
A: Phase 1 only at this time.
Q: Item 15. The schedule for the EOF report for Phase 2 data recovery is two weeks. Would you consider increasing the timeline for the Phase 2 EOF report to four weeks? Items 18 and 19. The schedule states that the draft final report for testing and data recovery combined will be submitted to EPNR for review within six (6) months of completion of data recovery fieldwork. The monitoring report is to be submitted within six (6) months of completion of monitoring.
To allow for artifact analysis and sample processing, would you consider increasing the timeline for the combined report to 12–18 months?
If monitoring is required, should the monitoring report be included within the combined testing/Phase 2 data recovery report?
A: Phase 1 only at this time.
6. Q: Can you provide a map of the APE?
A: Please see the attached CDD/EPNR Memorandum, which includes site acreage and the APE map.
7. Q: Can you provide a map of the projected resources relative to the APE?
A: Project APE is directly within a large site with resources expected throughout the APE. That’s all we can say until the firm has been chosen.
8. Q: The proposal format table in Section 2.4.1 lists a Section 4.0, Questions. What should be included in this section?
A: Please disregard this section.
