josho Typewritten Text 8/25/2020 josho Typewritten Text X josho Typewritten Text X josho Typewritten Text The RFP states that the utility work will be performed by the utility owners (Base Comm, ECEC, etc), and that the contractor will contract with them. These utility owners are not easy to get a hold of, and when reached, it is difficult to obtain pricing, or the utility requires more project information in order to price. Since only the utility owners can perform their own work, and since they have existing relationships with the base already, can the cost for their work be provided by the base in an allowance?
