Unaccompanied Housing (Dormitories) quarters on Eielson AFB. The contractor with an ADL and appropriate 354 CES representatives shall conduct a joint and concurrent inspection of government facilities involved in the move in addition to property inspection as required.

Will the contractor have to wait for the ADL or a 354 CES Rep prior to removing a door that is necessary for delivery and set up of furnishings or Appliances?

The contractor will have the authority to remove the door if necessary for delivery and set up of furnishings or appliances. Before removing the door, the contractor would need to notify the 354 CES

COR as to what door is being removed and reinstalled.

2. PWS 3.1.2 Emergency or unscheduled moves will be priced at 1.5 times the price set forth in bid schedule. Emergency moves may be on Saturdays, Sundays or Holidays.

Is this a new requirement? Do you have any data from the last contractor to estimate how often this could be required?

This is new for the Drayage Contract. Emergencies are unexpected, we are unable to forecast how often we expect them to happen.

3. PWS 4.1. Unaccompanied housing moves shall be done by item (when applicable), or by half or full day moves. ADL personnel will coordinate with FMS of required full or half day moves, generally within

14 business days. FMS will notify the contractor of full and half day dorm moves at least 5 business days before the move. The contractor provide additional vehicles and personnel to complete Full and Half

Day Dormitory moves within 5 business days of the move.

Is the government making a requirement to the service provider that additional vehicles and personnel must be utilized for the full and half day moves?

The PWS should say the contractor may provide. The PWS has been amended to reflect the change. The government does not direct the contractor how to do the job, however they do have to complete within the scheduled timeframe according to the PWS.
