MEMORANDUM FOR INTERESTED VENDORS TO SUBJECT SOLICITATION

FROM: 17 CONS/PKA

SUBJECT: FA303023Q0032, Install Troopwalk Lights Answers to Offeror’s Questions/RFIs (Request for Information)

1. The following questions/RFIs were submitted by offerors who attended the site visit on 27 June 23:

a. Can Contractors be provided an existing CAD file of the area of where the work will be performed?

Yes, CAD is included as an attachment.

b. Does the hand hole/ junction box need to be traffic rated or can it be plastic?

A Quazite Brand concrete traffic rated hand hole or equal will be required. The hand hole shall be appropriately sized and submitted for approval on AF 3000.

c. Please specify the voltage provided by the existing lights. We need to know if the lights are 277 or 480. As far as we know, LEDs cannot do both. Most of the time, the circuits are 480v phase to phase and 277 to neutral. If there is no neutral in the circuit, then the lights must be 480.

The existing light circuit is 277v with neutral.

d. Item 1.17 of the Abbreviated SOW discusses OPSEC Awareness training. How much time will the contractor spend in site-specific training before work can begin?

OPSEC Training will not be required for this project/location.

e. Item 3.6.1 of the Abbreviated SOW states that detectable tape must be placed above the new service line. Will tracer wire be suitable to use in lieu of detectable tape?

Detectable marker tape will be required on top of the select fill bedding material or 1ft below surface. Tracer wire is not required.

f. The boxes used near the existing lights would not be sufficient for the new handhole. A Quazite box would be a good option. Will the government specify they type of box to be used or provide additional handhole specifications?

A Quazite Brand concrete traffic rated hand hole or equal will be required. The hand hole shall be appropriately sized and submitted for approval on AF 3000.

g. Is there a way we can get a goggle earth of the location to be able to provide dimensions for the Poles .

The base fire wall prohibits us from using Google Earth here at the base therefore, if it is desired you will need to obtain on your own. The CAD file with Site Plan is provided and contains an Area Photo attached if that helps.

2. The CAD file is included as an attachment for your use for the quote. If you cannot access the file, please email at dora.caniglia.1@us.af.mil for further assistance.
