SFO LI-14174

This Amendment No. 7 to Phase 2 of SFO LI-14174 serves to incorporate the following:

Item 1: Requirement J has additional notes in the “General Notes” section indicating its warehouse space can be split into 2 buildings. A revised Attachment A Room Schedule is attached and will be uploaded to SAM.GOV as part of this Amendment.

Item 2: The revised Attachment A Room Schedule also has the “Approx. Area Each Room (SF) Finished” column removed to alleviate confusion around each space’s square footage requirements. The square footage requirements are captured in the “Approx. Total Area (SF) Gross” column. This also resulted in the Breakroom and Laydown Area line item square footages for Requirement K being moved from the “Approx. Area Each Room (SF) Finished” to the “Approx. Total Area (SF) Gross” (where they were previously not noted), resulting in the total square footage for Requirement K changing from 26,975 to 30,975 sq

ft. Section 1.1 Executive Summary, Paragraph A of SFO LI-14174 is hereby deleted in its entirety and updated as follows:

“1.1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

Item 3: The following Questions and Answers to SFO LI-14174 were received and answered since Amendment 5. To see question 1-49, please reference Amendment 5.

Question Offeror Question DON Response 50 Can you provide any feedback on the offer we submitted?

We are not able to provide any feedback or discuss the submitted offer until the SFO closes. This is to ensure the solicitation process remains fair and open to all participants.

51 In reference to SFO page 7 Sect.

1.3 E states that the Navy will

conduct a security survey of the facility. Is this something we need to initiate or conduct prior to the May submittal, or is this done after award of proposal?

Offerors will not initiate the security survey;

the Navy will initiate after receipt of all offers. As stated further in Sec 1.3, "In accordance with these ISC standards, the Navy will conduct a security survey for each facility offered and determine a risk rating. The Navy will determine from that risk rating if the property is acceptable or unacceptable. Offers must receive an acceptable security risk rating from the Navy in order to be eligible for award. The security survey may take up to forty-five

(45) days following receipt of offers and must be completed prior to award."

If the outcome of the execution of the security survey results in the Navy inititating discussions with offerors, offerors will be given the opportunity to adjust their offers as needed and submit a best and final offer.

Additionally, please ensure that you have reviewed Section 7 Security Standards of the SFO.

52 In reference to the actual lease document. Is there a fully executable lease available…I only see a 2 page document?

Does the lease have to be reviewed/signed to include in the May submittal or does the lease documentation/terms and negotiation come after award of proposal?

Please refer to Sections 1.5 Execution, 2.1 How to Offer, 2.9 Negotiations and review the SFO, all Attachments and all terms and conditions. The Attachment C SF2 Form US Government Lease for Real Property is not required to be completed for submittal of offer(s) to this SFO but the Lease, General Provisions and all terms of the SFO must be reviewed and understood by participants prior to submitting an offer.

53 The previous Room Schedule listed Requirement K at approximately 13,945 SF of Industrial space; however, the tallied areas come closer to +/- 30,000 SF. Please provide clarity on Requirement K.

Please refer to the updated Room Schedule in Amendment 6 that reflects the correct square footage requirement.

54 The previous Room Schedule listed Requirement J at approximately 13,945 SF of Warehouse space; however, the tallied areas come closer to 14,525 SF. Please provide clarity on how the Navy is tallying areas for Requirement J.

Please refer to the updated Room Schedule in Amendment 6 that reflects the correct square footage requirement.

55 As referenced in the SFO Section 1.3, spaces shall comply with UFC 3-600-01. UFC 4-440 as well as UFC 3-600-01 (4-48) Warehouse and Storage Facilities require warehouse spaces to be provided with sprinkler systems. Will the Navy accept a non-sprinklered warehouse space that is otherwise compliant with local and State codes (IBC, IFC) and permitted as non-sprinklered spaces by the governing permitting authorities?

UFC 3-600-01 requires fire sprinkler protection for warehouses and storage facilities of size 5,000 ft2 or greater.

Further to UFC 3-600-01, warehouses and storage facilities of size less than 5,000 ft2 also require fire sprinkler protection, unless approved by a Navy Fire Protection Engineer. Such request must be detailed in your proposal for the Navy to review and determine if appropriate based on the intended use.

If we decided to submit the 7k square foot space (requirement E) on the 2nd floor of our building and made it secure, are we able to occupy the remaining usable space on the same floor and share the hallway and bathrooms?

Yes, this is acceptable for submitting in a proposal for Requirement E and other requirements as applicable. Please ensure all requirements of the SFO, including Section 1.3.E and Section 7 are reviewed prior to submitting a proposal. Further to Section 1.3.E of the SFO, offers received which are determined to meet the minimum requirements will be further evaluated by the Navy in accordance with the standards and guidance set by UFC 4-010-01, Change 1, 1 October 2013.

The security survey performed by the Navy will require a coordinated visit to the site.

The outcome of the survey may require additional physical security improvements to the space, through the lease or by the Navy, in order to come to an acceptable security risk rating. In the event that additional physical security improvements are required as part of the security survey performed by the Navy, the Navy may request the landlord to review and update their proposal accordingly to incorporate such physical security improvements and validate an acceptable risk rating to award a lease.

In 1.1 Executive summary, seems to indicate that more than one building can be offered to cover the net square footage needed as long as the room sizes can be met. My question is, as I having a zoning limit (RI) of 7,500 SF, and I can build multiple buildings on my site to meet several requirements, But, Building J has one warehouse room of 12,500 SF, and Bldg K has one room 14,000 SF, can you tell us which buildings with these large rooms can be split into different buildings.

Requirement J, the Warehouse Room line item (12,500 sq ft) can be split into 2 buildings; however, 1 of those 2 buildings must also contain the muster rooms and restrooms in the same building. The buildings must be within 500 meters, with preference for as close proximity as possible. Please note that the full square footage for Requirement J is 14,525 sq ft, as shown in the "Approx. Total Area (SF) Gross column".

Requirement K, the Industrial Space area (14,000 SF) line item cannot be split into separate buildings. All of Requirement K, except for the laydown area, must be in one building. Please note that the full square footage for Requirement K is 30,975 sq ft, as shown in the "Approx. Total Area (SF) Gross column".

Attachment A Room Schedule will be updated with the above notes.

What is the difference between shell rent and base rent in Table 1 of Attachment F?

Please refer to the notes in Table 1 of Attachment F. Shell Rent is a proposed rental rate in consideration of a space that is not yet ready for occupancy. Base Rent is a proposed rental rate for a space where any proposed tenant improvements are completed and the space is certified as ready for occupancy. Offerors must decide how they submit their offered rates for proposed space. Please ensure that you have reviewed Section 3.8.B. Rent Commencement.

What is the benefit of submitting a proposal early? Will I receive feedback or begin discussions with the Navy on a proposal submitted in advance of the solicitation closing on May 26th?

Proposals submitted early by Offerors are well received by the Navy but are not required and entirely at the Offeror’s discretion. The Navy cannot provide feedback or begin discussions on a proposal submitted until after the solicitation closes.

Prior to submitting a proposal, Offerors are encouraged to review Section 2.5 Explanation to Prospective Offerors, submit PPIs, call the RECO’s designated representatives to review questions and clarifications, and review the solicitation, all attachments, and amendments available on sam.gov in their entirety.

All other terms and conditions of Phase 1 SFO LI-14174 remain unchanged.
