SUMMARY OF CHANGES

SECTION SF 30 - BLOCK 14 CONTINUATION PAGE

The following have been added by full text:

Amendment 0003 The purpose of this solicitation amendment is to respond to Pre-Proposal Inquiries (PPIs).

Pre-proposal Inquiry No. 3:

PTS, Prolet Kindergarten, Page 34, 3.7 Pictures to show existing condition of the Façade and to describe elements of the scope of work PICTURE 1: Electric panels to be replaced with new. Area of the building requiring new sidewalk.

Question: Please specify if the Contractor shall replace only the panels (metal boxes) or the panel replacement includes all electrical elements inside the box?

Pre-proposal Inquiry No. 3 Response:

All works included in this contract shall be performed in compliance with Bulgarian technical regulations.

As such, replacing the panel includes replacing all elements that are not in compliance with latest Bulgarian regulations. The contractor shall replace the electric panels and all internal elements which are not in compliance with latest Bulgarian Electrical Code. The contractor may choose to remove and reinstall on the new panels those elements that are found and certified by the contractor’s engineer to be in compliance with Bulgarian Electrical Code.

Pre-proposal Inquiry No. 4:

PTS, Prolet Kindergarten, Page 21, 3.2 Exterior window and door replacement – Window Wall The works include everything necessary to provide perfectly finishes in the interior areas, including operational radiators.

Question: Please specify if the Contractor shall replace all radiators in the kindergarten or only those in the corridors where the windows and doors will be replaced with new ones? The total number of radiators in the contract area is 70 ea.

Pre-proposal Inquiry No. 4 Response:

It is not part of the contract to replace all radiators in the kindergarten, but only those that are specifically listed to be replaced, which is not the case of the hallway radiators.

In the corridors, it is estimated that the contractor shall remove, clean, paint and reinstall the existing radiators, providing new valve for each radiator, in order to have them perfectly operational and to vent the air. The contractor is responsible as part of this contract to remove and reinstall the existing radiators, and only if it is beyond replacement, it will be replaced with a new one. For estimating purposes, the contractor shall estimate that they will need to replace a maximum of 1 m² of radiators in the hallways.

Pre-proposal Inquiry No. 5:

Can you provide as built or AutoCAD version of the buildings?

Pre-proposal Inquiry No. 5 Response:

These are not available. All available drawings are available (for consultation only) at the kindergartens.

Pre-proposal Inquiry No. 6:

PTS, Prolet Kindergarten, 3.3. Exterior window and door replacement – Storage in Patio, picture 3 on page 24:

During the site visit we found out that the storage is supported by big and thick metal columns that are anchored in a concrete slab. Please specify if we need to completely remove the concrete slab /concrete floor/ as well in order to be able to provide new completely leveled patio or we can keep the concrete slab and put the sidewalk tiles on top of the slab (there will be a threshold between the yard and the former storage area).

Pre-proposal Inquiry No. 6 Response:

The awardee will need to remove the slab or anything else in order to provide the patio with a perfectly leveled flooring.

Pre-proposal Inquiry No. 7:

PTS, Prolet Kindergarten, 3.5 Thermally Insulated Façade System – Specific Requirements, on page 31 is stated: “Balcony covers: The covers of the balconies of the second floor shall be completely removed and replaced with new”.

Question: Please let us know if we need to change all railings at the balconies with new or we shall repair and repaint the existing ones.

Pre-proposal Inquiry No. 7 Response:

Existing railing can be repaired as stated in PTS, Prolet Kindergarten, 3.5. Only the covers of the balconies of the second floor shall be replaced with new.

Pre-proposal Inquiry No. 8:

PTS, Prolet Kindergarten, 3.2 Exterior window and door replacement – Window Wall, pictures on page 22.

During the site visit the kindergarten director requested not to decrease the number of windows in the hallway around the patio and make a masonry wall at 1 m of high. (picture #2 on page 22).

Question: please specify if we shall keep 100% of operational windows (vertically and horizontally) as it is the case for all existing windows in the whole building or we can provide only 50% of the windows to be operational?

Pre-proposal Inquiry No. 8 Response:

The PTS, Prolet Kindergarten, 3.2 page 16 states "For estimating purposes, the contractor shall estimate that 50% of the window surfaces shall be operational (horizontally and vertically). For windows openings with less than 1m² of total surface, 100% of the window shall be operational horizontally and vertically."

If the offeror's proposed solution includes window openings greater than 1m² of total surface, the contractor shall estimate that at least 50% of the window surfaces shall be operational (horizontally and vertically). A relative example of this is shown in the bottom picture on page 22 of the PTS, Prolet Kindergarten, 3.2. If the offeror's proposed technical solution includes windows with less than 1m² of total surface, 100% of the window shall be operational horizontally and vertically as shown in the middle picture on page 22 of the PTS, Prolet Kindergarten, 3.2. If the offeror wishes to meet the kindergartener director's request not to decrease the number of windows, then the middle picture on page 22 would be an acceptable solution. However, as stated on page 16 of the PTS, Prolet Kindergarten, 3.2, "For estimating purposes, the contractor shall estimate that 50% of the window surfaces shall be operational (horizontally and vertically). For windows openings with less than 1m² of total surface, 100% of the window shall be operational horizontally and vertically."

Pre-proposal Inquiry No. 9:

PTS, Prolet Kindergarten, 3.4 Thermally Insulated Façade System – General, page 25, Special cover of the lowest section of thermal façade (natural stone for estimating purposes) Question: The kindergarten director requested us to provide a modern lowest part of the façade and install polished granite, technical stone or travertine.

Please let us know if the PTS requirement for natural stone can be replaced with one of the above mentioned materials.

Pre-proposal Inquiry No. 9 Response:

Yes, it is acceptable to utilize one of the technical solutions described in your question. As the PTS, Prolet Kindergarten, 3.4 states, “the design shall include at a minimum…special cover of the lowest section of thermal façade (natural stone for estimating purposes).”
