END OF AMENDMENT

Design Build Project for High Velocity Air Handler Units Bob Casey Federal Building Houston, Texas

Additional Answers to Requests for Information:

Controls: Is it the intent of the project for each air handling unit to have new controls? Please clarify that reusing the old controls is not acceptable. Controls shall match the existing Control system.

Are there any requirements for a new work station? No

Will new graphics on the front-end work station be required for each new air handler? Designer needs to verify with Siemens.

Should the offeror include sale tax in their pricing? The government is tax-exempt.

Can you clarify the expectations on when each air handling unit can be taken off line and demolished and when the new air handler will have to running again? For example, old air handler demolition can begin

Friday at noon and the new air handler must be operational by 5AM on Monday morning. Down time should be scheduled after regular working hours, weekend, and holidays.

Can any work on the project be done during the week during normal business hours? Some work will need to be done after hours

Can you clarify the badging requirements for the project? All workers on the project will need to go through the badging requirement.

Will each worker be required to have a badge? Yes

What is the expected duration to receive a badge once the application process is complete? Two weeks.

Can the employee work in the facility without a badge? In certain circumstances.

Given the nature and complexity of this project, the selected air handling units will be custom. Will the duration of the project be adjusted to account for the long lead time of custom air handling units? That will be discussed with the successful bidder.

Liquidated damages: Will the liquidated damages be assessed for each air handling unit being operation each week or just at the end of the project after the 240 days? Only at the end of the 240 days.

What version of the Niagara Tridium JACE panels are currently installed. R2? AX? Siemens

I noticed that each respective bidder must hold their price for 120 days. Is this project currently funded? Yes

On page 9 of the solicitation, the first bullet under Safety Agency Listed & Certification states that the units shall be accepted for use in New York City? Can you clarify if this is a requirement? This is not a requirement.

It was mentioned during the site visit that any asbestos abatement will be handled under a separate contract. Can this be confirmed? As of now, No asbestos have been detected on these units.
