QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

The following are answers to questions received from potential offerors. The answers provide clarification only and DO NOT constitute an amendment to the solicitation.

218. The contractor has requested the POAM for the AIT work for the following work items and has not received this information to date for the following items:

438-90-001

438-90-002

541-90-001

654-90-001

Without this information, the contractor cannot provide a complete schedule.

ANSWER:

The POAMs for these items will not be provided as part of the solicitation process. The AIT work will not impact the critical path work items and as such it is the Governments expectation that Offerors can provide a reliable schedule based on the work that is proposed and comparison to the Ship installation drawings (SIDs) provided as references.

221. WORK ITEM/CSWT NO: 321-80-001 - The spec calls for replacement of 110 stuffing tubes but does not provide specific locations or sizes of tubes to be replaced there are 5 different sizes on the matrix provided and literally hundreds of possible locations. Please provide the qty of each size tube to be replaced along with specific locations. The correct lengths of EMP required cannot be determined without a ship check because these lengths vary on every ship based on actual as built conditions. We recommend the government revise to a LOE or provide sufficient information to determine the qty of EMP tubing and fittings required.

The work item was revised in ERRATA 7 to change the quantity to 124 and added Attachments A&B which gives the location of all 124 tubes.

222. WORK ITEM/CSWT NO: 342-12-001 - Paragraphs 3.6.3.1 & 3.6.4.1 references paragraphs

3.11.2 and 3.11.3 which do not exist. Please clarify.

There is no 342-12-001 in the work package.

223. WORK ITEM/CSWT NO: 259-11-003 - Paragraph 3.5 of Errata 7 directs the contractor to accomplish the tightening of bolts IAW the ShipAlt in paragraph 2.7. Paragraph 3.4 directs the contractor to remove, modify and install IAW the ShipAlt in 2.7. The 4720 with GFM provided material is for all material listed IAW the ShipAlt in paragraph 2.7. However, paragraph 1.3 identifies only seven Exhaust Ducts rather than the full set of Exhaust Ducts involved in the

ShipAlt.

Please clarify, is the Government interested in having the Shipalt in paragraph 2.7 performed in its entirety or rather that the contractor perform just a partial Shipalt on only those seven Exhaust

Ducts that are referenced in Paragraph 1.3.

Paragraph 3.4 has been revised in Errata 9 to accomplish Shipalt for areas identified in 1.3, and paragraph

3.4.2 added to remove existing and install new expansion joint gaskets for areas identified in 1.3 using 2.2 through 2.6 for guidance.

224. WORK ITEM/CSWT NO: 150-11-016 - Para 3.6 states to accomplish 009-32 in location listed in 1.2….Please confirm this preservation is for the repairs made in para 3.2.

ERRATA 7 has changed paragraph. 3.6 to read "Accomplish the requirements of 009-32 of 2.1, including

Table 2, Line 4, for exterior bulkheads, including coaming and angle foundation repaired in paragraph

3.2."

225. WORK ITEM/CSWT NO: 150-11-006 - Para 3.5 states to remove existing and install new 7 collars and 4 stuffing tubes. For estimating purposes, please provide sizes of collars and stuffing tubes.

Yes, deck drains are listed as GFM on 4720-DDG74-FY16-A11 on page 122 of 152. The work item will be revised to match the 4720.

228. Under the single ship FFP contracting structure, all NAVSEA and MARMC solicitations to date

(i.e., N00024-15-R-4406, N50054-15-R-0007, N50054-15-R-0008, N50054-15-R-0010, N50054-
