Question Number Contractor Question Government Response

1 In regards to Figure 1, can you clarify what are the cabling requirements for Location #7? No new cable requirements to location #7

In regards to Figure 1, it states that the First Bay (01A) has three modular offices and the Second Bay (01B) has one modular office. Can you clarify the type of locations each modular office gets?

For example: 1v/1d, 1v/2d, 2v/2d? Please see Attachment 5. Photos of Building 1015

3 Will these locations require raceway installed on the walls to install the cabling or can the location be fed through the wall?

Please see Paragraph 2 of SOW. All modular facilities have 10 pre-existing communications paths from the top of modular facility to the faceplate. The contractor shall replace 10 pre-existing faceplates to support the new CAT 6 LAN ports.

We are assuming a scissor lift will be required being a warehouse environment, can you provide the distance from floor to ceiling? 18 feet

In regards to the Statement of Work, Line 2, it states “Install 2 Telephone Tie Cable Patch Panels for patch cord cross-connect.” Can you clarify the cabling requirements between these two panels and where would they be installed? I am assuming one panel is for Location #4 and one is for location #5 to extend the phone lines to Location #4.

Please see Paragraph 2 of SOW. One Patch Panel is for LAN drops terminated on CAT 6 rated terminal and the second termianl 66 punch down type block is for designated Voice grade drops.

6 In regards to Figure 1, can you clarify the requirements for Locations #1, #2, #3 and #7? No new at locations 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7. These locations are marked for reference only.

8 Is Location #4 and #5 already existing Comm Rooms? Yes, no requirement for #5.

Are there any environmental concerns in the warehouse or can standard indoor-rated PVC-jacket cabling be use?

No enviromental concerns, LAN cable shall be indoor rated. See SOW Attachment 1 Kirtland AFB Communications Specifications.

10 What are the dimensions (length and width) of the warehouse? Warehouse is devided into 3 bays. Each bay is 200ft by 200ft.

Is the warehouse ceiling a standard, open-space warehouse ceiling or would the cabling path be within an attic or interstitial space? Open space.

What is the height of the cabling path that traverses the warehouse ceiling? Height would be measured from finished floor. 18 ft

What type of equipment would be required to access the ceiling cable path? Examples would be:

a. 12-foot step ladder if path is less than 13’ from floor

b. Standard man-lift if path is greater than 13’, and there are no objects blocking the path of the lift

c. Articulating man-lift if the path is greater than 13’ and there are floor or wall obstructions blocking access to the ceiling cable path

Floor to steel truses is 18 ft.

14 If a man-lift is required, will we be granted use of an onsite Government-owned man-lift?

No. Please see Paragraph 1 of SOW. The contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, supplies, facilities, transporation, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and non-personal services necessary to perform work defined in the SOW.

15 If we are to provide man-lift, can the lift be stored onsite during the entire length of the project? Yes.

16 Are there photos available of the warehouse space? Please see Attachment 5. Photos of Building 1015

Please provide detail on what the locations marked 1 through 7 are each identifying in Figure 1.

We understand that Location 4 is the central termination point, and that four of the other designations should be modular offices, but we are unclear on exactly what each of the other six designations are noting.

No new at locations 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7. These locations are marked for reference only.
