Q & A
Round:
Project: Recorder of Deeds Modernization Project Date: July 17, 2024
Email: Kenneth.Evans@dccsystem.gov Pages: 3
Q.68 Per page 7 of the RFP, this is a design-build fixed-price (lump sum) solicitation, and the price is being determined by the owner with an NTE of $36M for the Base
1 & Base 2 scope of work and an NTE of $5M for Options 1, 2 and 3. Also, on page 7, it is stated that “no additional charge shall be made by the design-builder for the requirements of this contract …”. However, on page 9 of the RFP, in the
4th paragraph, it mentions there will be a negotiated fixed price. The “Price
Submission Letter” (K52) provides space for the proposer to indicate the breakdown and total for both the Base and the Options but also has bolded an
NTE amount, with a statement that reads, “By submitting this proposal … pricing will result in a firm, fixed price, and pricing will not be subject to any further adjustments.”
According to the RFP, this project requires full design and construction based on the options selected by the owner. Is the intent to develop the design and construction scope to an NTE of $36M base and an NTE of $5M for the options?
Would you consider allowing for a market-informed budget to be submitted in lieu of submitting the Price Submission Letter with the prescribed NTE, providing an opportunity for a price adjustment after the awarded proposer ”collaborates with the owner and relevant stakeholders to ensure compliance with the contract documents”, as mentioned on page 14 of the RFP?
A.68 Reference to pricing negotiations is meant to inform prospective vendors that the
DC Courts will review and may negotiate pricing prior to award. Pricing from the successful vendor will be awarded as a firm-fixed contract based on the scope and requirements included in the solicitation. For additional information on the NTEs, please see Addendum 3, Section A.1 Contract Type (Revised).
Failure by the Offeror to properly acknowledge receipt of this Amendment Number #05 may be cause for rejection of the proposal submitted by the Offeror in response to the subject solicitation.
This Amendment Number #05 is acknowledged and is considered a part of the proposal for Solicitation Number DCSC-24-RFP-223 Recorder of Deeds
