Sheet2 Pre-Proposal Information (PPI) Question and Government Responses #2

Please provide 10 day extension and advise as soon as possible.

The RFP, Section C, paragraph 2 states, “The required place of performance for the dry-docking portion of the DSRA shall be the graving dock located at Naval Station San Diego for offerors proposing to execute in the San Diego, CA homeport.”

The docking work item 997-11-001 does not define necessary requirements for docking at the NAVSTA graving dock, particularly, the NAVFAC and contractor responsibilities for docking at the naval station, such as (but not limited to):

1.Best Management Practices

2. Memorandum of Understanding

3. Graving Dock User Agreement,

4. What functions will NAVSTA/NAVFAC assist with?

5. Security while in the graving dock.

6. Navy Tugs

7. gangways

8. temporary services Please provide an accurate specification for this docking evolution that reflects the requirements of the NAVSTA graving dock and provide all required documentation to develop estimates. Work Item 997-11-001 has been changed to an option for out of port bidders and Addendum 2 has added Work Item 997-11-002 as an option item for local bidders. Both work items have been updated on Attachment J-4.

This has been addressed in the Errata. Please contact Michael Ravnitzky, michael.ravnitzky@navy.mil, LT Michelle Wogu, michelle.wogu@navy.mil, and Martha Bello, martha.bello@navy.mil to request the Addendum and Errata.

2.23 331-8565864 Rev B, Habitability Improvement LSD 47 Electrical CPO, STNCO, Crew & Troop Sanitary Spaces Mod.

The following reference is identified in the specification, but was not included on the government provided CD/DVD which included the Attachment J-1 Specification Package No. TPPC-LSD47-SWRMC19-CN01 and all Attachment J-2 Work Item Plans, Drawings, and Other References.

2.10 331-8565860 Rev B, Habitability Improvement LSD 47 Electrical CPO, STNCO, Crew & Troop Living Spaces Mod.

Reference 2.9 identifies, “634-8565858 Rev B, Habitability Improvement LSD 47 Arrangement CPO, STNCO, Crew & Troop Living Spaces Mod” Contractor has reviewed reference 2.9 and notes that on Sheet 1 of 30 reference no. 2 lists “510-8565859 Habitability Improvement Ventilation CPO, STNCO, Crew & Troop Living Spaces Mod” and in accordance with general note 6 it is required for accomplishment, but it is not listed in paragraph 2 References of work item 643-11-002. Contractor has reviewed the Specification Package and notes that 510-8565859 is not identified for accomplishment by any work item.

1) Is the contractor required to accomplish “510-8565859 Habitability Improvement Ventilation CPO, STNCO, Crew & Troop Living Spaces Mod” in accordance with direction provided in reference 2.9 of the specification?

If so;

a) Contractor requests that 510-8565859 Habitability Improvement Ventilation CPO, STNCO, Crew & Troop Living Spaces Mod be provided.

The following reference is identified in the specification, but was not included on the government provided CD/DVD which included the Attachment J-1 Specification Package No. TPPC-LSD47-SWRMC19-CN01 and all Attachment J-2 Work Item Plans, Drawings, and Other References.

2.5 171-4799781 Rev F, Main Mast Details Bidder’s Question:

Paragraph 1.2.3 identifies, “Troop WR & WC (03-19-0-L)” Paragraph 1.2.4 identifies, “Troop SH & Drying Area (03-20-0-L)” Reference 2.25 identifies, “510-8565865 Rev B, Ventilation-Manufacturing Details CPO, STNCO, Crew & Troop Sanitary Spaces Mod.”

Paragraph 3.2 states, “Accomplish the Space Modifications located in 1.2.3 through 1.2.4, in accordance with 2.21 through 2.25.”

Contractor is currently unable to review references 2.21 thru 2.24 (references are missing and have been requested by separate PPI), but a review of reference 2.25 notes that the locations of work identified do NOT match the specification’s location of work directed by paragraph 3.2 and identified in 1.2.3 and 1.2.4.

1) How should the contractor determine the correct location of work, specification or reference?

The specification usually takes precedence, but reference 2.25 is annotated as specific to the USS Rushmore LSD 47 Shipboard Habitability Improvement Program as developed by NAVSEA on 10/12/18.

2) Will an Errata be issued to revise the specification and/or provide the requested clarification? This has been addressed in Errata 3. Work item has been modified to add para 1.2.5 Throughout the Ship. Ventilation modifications modify the ventilation in the spaces listed, and extend to the spaces adjacent to the spaces listed in origional specification.

Please contact Michael Ravnitzky, michael.ravnitzky@navy.mil, LT Michelle Wogu, michelle.wogu@navy.mil, and Martha Bello, martha.bello@navy.mil to request the Addendum and Errata.

33 643-11-002 & 644-11-001 Work Item 643-11-002 “Crew Living Space Equipment; replace” Paragraph 3.1 states, “Accomplish the requirements of 009-114 of 2.1 for removal of mold contamination on each locker and berth sub base throughout compartment, in the location listed in 1.2, using 2.2 for ventilation system isolation and blanking requirements.”

Paragraph 1.2 Location of Work lists:

1.2.1 Crew Living Space (04-59-0-L); 1.2.2 Crew Recreation Rm & Lounge #4 (03-59-1-L); 1.2.3 Troop Recreation Rm. #3 (03-25-2-L); 1.2.4 Troop Recreation Rm. #2 (03-25-1-L); 1.2.5 Troop Living Space (03-21-2-L); 1.2.6 Troop Living Space (03-21-1-L); 1.2.7 Troop Living Space (03-14-0-L); 1.2.8 Crew Lounge (04-52-1-L); 1.2.9 Crew Living Space (04-43-2-L); 1.2.10 Crew Living Space (04-35-6-L); 1.2.11 Troop Living Space (03-21-0-L);

Work Item 644-11-001 “Sanitary Space; repair” Paragraph 1.2 Location of Work lists:

1.2.1 Crew Washroom and Water Closet (04-52-4-L); 1.2.2 Crew Shower and Dry Area (04-55-2-L); 1.2.3 Troop WR & WC (03-19-0-L); 1.2.4 Troop SH & Drying Area (03-20-0-L) The contractor rarely sees implementation of 009-114 “Mold Remediation; accomplish” in a non-wet/damp space, especially to the extent requested by 643-11-002. Upon review of work items 643-11-002 and 644-11-001, the contractor notes that 009-114 is invoked on the Crew Living Space work item but not on the Sanitary Space work item.

As paragraph 3.1 of work item 643-11-002 is written, the work scope to accomplishment of 009-114 on each locker and berth sub base located in the eleven spaces listed in 1.2 will be quite extensive.

1) Concerning 009-114, is it the customer’s intent for the contractor to accomplish the work scope identified in 643-11-002 and 644-11-001 as written? This has been addressed in Errata 3. 009-114 was removed from Work Item 643-11-002 and added to 644-11-001.

Please contact Michael Ravnitzky, michael.ravnitzky@navy.mil, LT Michelle Wogu, michelle.wogu@navy.mil, and Martha Bello, martha.bello@navy.mil to request the Addendum and Errata.

34 123-12-002 JP5 Tank Preserve Paragraph 3.2 states, “Accomplish the requirements of 009-32 of 2.1, including Table 4, Line 11, Column A, for each tank listed in 1.2. SEE NOTE (65)” Paragraph 3.3 states, “Accomplish the requirements of 009-32 of 2.1, including Table 4, Line 11, Column B, for the preservation of each surface prepared in 3.2. SEE NOTE (65)” NAVSEA Standard Item FY19 Change 4 009-32 Note (65) states, “Fuel oil storage, fuel oil service, and diesel service tanks are not required to be painted unless specifically addressed in the tables. For existing paints, when flaking occurs, SSPC-SP 3 surface preparation shall be accomplished and a light coat of system fluid shall be wiped over the surface prior to closing. If preconstruction primer was applied in accordance with 3.1.5, it may be retained, but it shall be overcoated with one coat MIL-PRF-23236, Type V, VI, or VII Class 5 at 4-8 mils.”

Bidder’s Question:

1) The contractor requests clarification that 009-32 note (65) of NAVSEA Standard Item FY19 Change 4 applies to the JP-5 tanks identified in paragraph 1.2 in that the tanks are not required to be painted?

2.2 S9311-DM-HBK-010 Rev 1, U.S. Navy Diesel Engines Fairbanks Morse Opposed Piston Model 12-38ND 8 1/8 LSD 41/49 Class Ships Question:

36 243-11-001 & 244-11-001 Work Item 243-11-001 “Starboard Propulsion Shafting; inspect and repair” Paragraph 3.25 thru 3.29 provide step by step procedures to fill each void, waterborne bearing, and rotating coupling cover on the starboard propulsion shaft with preservative that meets MIL-C-11796 standards.

Paragraph 3.29.1 states, “Document amount of preservative used to fill each strut, stern tube or void in 3.27 to be added to results in 3.28.1 and compared against tabulated volumes provided by SWRMC Code 263.”

Paragraph 4.2 states, “Work in conjunction with Work Item 244-11-001, Outboard Propulsion Shafting, Bearing Clearance Measurement Starboard; accomplish” Work Item 244-11-001 “Starboard Outboard Propulsion Shafting Bearing Clearance Measurement; accomplish”

(V)(G) "VERIFY FILL"

Paragraph 3.5.1 states, “Fill each bearing and stern tube/strut void with new preservative compound per MIL-C-11796 in accordance with Paragraph 244-4.10 of 2.8.”

(V)(G) "VERIFY FULL"

Paragraph 3.5.1.1 states, “Fill each bearing and stern tube/strut void with preservative compound per MIL-C-11796 in accordance with 2.8, after a 24 hour cool down.”

Paragraph 4.2 states, “Work in conjunction with 243-11-001, Propulsion Shafting Starboard; inspect and repair.”

Contractor notes that work items 243-11-001 and 244-11-001 on the Starboard shaft are to be worked in conjunction with one another, but it appears that the contractor is being directed to fill each void, waterborne bearing, and rotating coupling cover on the starboard propulsion shaft with MIL-C-11796 twice, once under each item identified above.

Question:

1) To preclude double coverage and since work item 243-11-001 has a more detailed procedure for filling each void, waterborne bearing, and rotating coupling cover on the starboard propulsion shaft with MIL-C-11796, shouldn’t work item 244-11-001’s paragraphs 3.5.1 and 3.5.1.1 be deleted?

2) Additionally, on work item 243-11-001 shouldn’t paragraph 4.2 states, “Work in conjunction with Work Item 244-11-001, Starboard Outboard Propulsion Shafting Bearing Clearance Measurement; accomplish” Errata 3 removed para 3.5.1 and 3.5.1.1 from 244-11-001.

Please contact Michael Ravnitzky, michael.ravnitzky@navy.mil, LT Michelle Wogu, michelle.wogu@navy.mil, and Martha Bello, martha.bello@navy.mil to request the Addendum and Errata.

Paragraph 4.2 states, “Work in conjunction with Work Item 244-11-001, Outboard Propulsion Shafting, Bearing Clearance Measurement Starboard; accomplish” Work Item 244-12-001 “Port Outboard Propulsion Shafting Bearing Clearance Measurement; accomplish”

(V)(G) "VERIFY FILL"

Paragraph 3.5.1 states, “Fill each bearing and stern tube/strut void with new preservative compound per MIL-C-11796 in accordance with Paragraph 244-4.10 of 2.8.”

(V)(G) "VERIFY FULL"

Paragraph 3.5.1.1 states, “Fill each bearing and stern tube/strut void with preservative compound per MIL-C-11796 in accordance with 2.8, after a 24 hour cool down.”

Paragraph 4.2 states, “Work in conjunction with 243-12-001, Propulsion Shafting Port; inspect and repair.”

Contractor notes that work items 243-12-001 and 244-12-001 on the Port shaft are to be worked in conjunction with one another, but it appears that the contractor is being directed to fill each void, waterborne bearing, and rotating coupling cover on the port propulsion shaft with MIL-C-11796 twice, once under each item identified above.

Question:

1) To preclude double coverage and since work item 243-12-001 has a more detailed procedure for filling each void, waterborne bearing, and rotating coupling cover on the port propulsion shaft with MIL-C-11796, shouldn’t work item 244-12-001’s paragraphs 3.5.1 and 3.5.1.1 be deleted?

2) Additionally, on work item 243-12-001 shouldn’t paragraph 4.2 states, “Work in conjunction with Work Item 244-12-001, Port Outboard Propulsion Shafting Bearing Clearance Measurement; accomplish” Errata 3 removed para 3.5.1 and 3.5.1.1 from 244-12-001.

48 Solicitation Attachment J-1 Section C of the RFP 1.1 states “Category I NAVSEA FY19 Standard Items through CHG 4 identified under Attachment J-1 are applicable to all items without further reference. Category II NAVSEA FY19 Standard Items through CHG 2 are applicable when invoked and/or referenced in individual work items specified in Attachment J-1.”

Pages 1 through 3 (index) of the J-1 attachment are not consistent with the guidance given in section C. The J-1 attachment (Index) only lists up to FY19 CH-3 for CAT I Standard Items and up to FY19 CH-3 for CAT II Standard Items. Additionally the individual work items in J-1 call out FY19 Standard Items (no Change listed).

This causes confusion when dealing with 009-32 Requirements (as one example). The requirements may have significant price differences based on the Change that is being used.

Please provide clarification as to what Standard Items including Changes (for CAT I and CAT II) are applicable to each item of the J-1. Question 21 is revised to state: Attachment J-1 has been revised to align with, “Category I NAVSEA FY19 Standard Items through CHG 4 identified under Attachment J-1 are applicable to all items without further reference. Category II NAVSEA FY19 Standard Items through CHG 4 are applicable when invoked and/or referenced in individual work items specified in Attachment J-1.”

53 980-90-007 Work Item 980-90-007 “SA 82625K Mark XIIA IFF Hardware Upgrade, Alteration Installation Team (AIT) Support Service; provide” Paragraph 1.1 of the specification does NOT identify this work item as an (Option Item).

J-4 USS Rushmore Pricing Workbook, Work Item Index (CLIN) tab, Work Item 980-90-007 “SA 82625K Mark XIIA IFF Hardware Upgrade, Alteration Installation Team (AIT) Support Service; provide” The Base/Option column of the J-4 lists this item with a CLIN of 0025 as an OPTION item, but the J-4 work item title does NOT identify the item as an (Option Item).

Contractor suspects that work item 980-90-007 is an (Option Item) as identified in the Base/Option column of the J-4, but that the work item titles on the Attachment J-1 Specification Package No. TPPC-LSD47-SWRMC19-CN01 and Attachment J-4 Pricing Workbook need to be revised include (Option Item).

1) Is work item 980-90-007 an (Option Item)?

2) Will the work item title for 980-90-007 be revised on Attachment J-1 Specification Package No TPPC-LSD47-SWRMC19-CN01 and Attachment J-4 Pricing Workbook to include (Option Item)? Attachment J-4 has been revised to make Work Item 980-90-007 part of the Base Award CLIN 0002. CLIN 0025 has been deleted

54 J-4 1. Several work items in Errata 2 contain a note stating, “This work item is for out of port bidders only, local bidders disregard.”

Normally, the pricing Attachment J-4 contains a note indicating which CLIN/items on the attachment are only to be priced if an offer is out of the home port. The current version of Attachment J-4 doesn’t provide any indication. Please clarify.

2. Several work items identified as “Option” items in Errata 2 are marked as “Base” items in Attachment J-4. Please clarify. Attachment J-4 has been revised to include "to be priced by out of homeport bidders only." Additionally, the following Work Items have been made Option CLINs: 300-11-001, 551-51-001, 551-51-002, 992-21-003, Sheet3
