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.
SPECIFICATION ITEM NO.: _____910________________
PARAGRAPH / SECTION NO.: _____7.1 & 7.3___________
TITLE: ____RIDE CONTROL SYSTEM SCF BEARING SUPPORT______
QUESTION: We have been advised by Austal USA that they are unable to quote this item because the modifications specified in paragraph 7.3 are not authorized by ABS for the Spearhead. According to Austal this modification has been approved on a trial basis for only one vessel, not Spearhead. Specifically, Austal says that ABS is concerned that the aluminum hull may flex too much to support the Chockfast and they wanted to see what happened on the one approved vessel prior to approving the same modification on any other vessels. Please advise.
ANSWER: The requirement for the contractor to source Austal USA shall be removed from this work item. MSC will coordinate with ABS for drawing approval.
Austal USA is still required for RCS maintenance under separate work item.
