The Contractor shall obtain and provide all necessary certifications or documents that cover the Regulatory Body approvals and indicate additional compliance. Will the Government provide work specifications that define details of contractor responsibility that can be reasonably estimated? If these requirements are not going to be defined in work specifications, where should the contractor apply the costs for this work on the

S-2 cost data?

ANSWER 041 Section C:

No, the Government will not provide a work requirement to tow the vessel. The Contractor shall include the cost of towing the vessel from its current location in Beaumont, Texas to the contractor’s facilities as stated in the solicitation. Pricing for this cost can be included in Work

Item 000-00-001 listed on the S-2. Remaining requirements that the contractor will be responsible for are listed in the individual work items and pricing shall be attached to those specific work items listed on the S-2.

QUESTION 042 Section C:

For 992-11-002 Reference 2.1 ABS, American Bureau of Shipping:, Lay-up and Reactivation of

Offshore Support Vessels KTRs were not present at the initial lay-up, or any subsequent Annual surveys- the scope of work required by this work item is contingent on the status of the lay-up

Will the GOVT provide a copy of the Initial lay-up survey and completed annual surveys as part of the shipcheck? Will the GOVT confirm that the requirements of Section 2 were completed in full with record comment Laid Up Cold Stacked? Will the GOVT provide a copy of the procedures submitted to ABS IAW Section 2/1 of reference 2.1 as part of the shipcheck? Per reference 2.1 Reactivation is to address all equipment degradation and deferred maintenance that was recorded in the vessel’s records. Will the GOVT provide a copy of the degraded equipment and deferred maintenance form the vessel records so the work can be reasonably estimated?

ANSWER 042 Section C:

No, there is no known list of degraded equipment other than the equipment listed in the individual work specifications.

The vessel was not laid-up per ABS guidelines at its time of deactivation but the vessel has been under a dehumidification system at MARAD facility since it’s repossession in 2019.

The vessel underwent an ABS pre-condition survey in January 27-28, 2021 and was found acceptable for readmission to ABS class.

QUESTION 044 Section C:

Will the government provide a detailed work specification regarding towing the vessel from

Beaumont, Texas to our facility? Will the government provide a crew to operate the vessel’s systems and equipment during the accomplishment of Sea Trials? Is the Contractor to provide a

Licensed Crew to operate the vessel’s systems and equipment for Sea Trials? Will the government provide a crew to operate the vessel’s systems and equipment during the

Reactivation? Will the government provide the above actions to assist contractor in reasonably estimating this work?

Yes, the Government will provide a crew to operate the vessel’s systems and equipment during the accomplishment of Sea Trials.

No, the contractor is not required to provide a licensed crew to operate the vessel’s systems and equipment for Sea Trials.

Yes, the Government will have ship’s crew available to operate the vessel’s systems and equipment during reactivation and testing.

QUESTION 045 Section C:

ABS has asked if we had the vessel's ABS number. We do not, nor is it in any references we have. We did provide former name, IMO number, builder, builder's hull number and delivery date of Sept 9, 2015. (First 5 year special survey would be in 2020. Already in Lay Up?). Now the question is what is its ABS classification status. ABS has requested the original ABS Class number for the vessel in order to respond to our request for proposal. Please provide the ABS

Class number for original certificates. Has the government informed ABS of where Vessel is? Is the vessel due for its 5 year special survey, and if so is that a part of the work scope. Will the government please provide contractor with all ABS classification numbers and surveys associated with the vessel in order to reasonably estimate this work?

ANSWER 045 Section C:

BravanteVIII, Eastern Shipbuilding Hull 158.

ABS ID # YY238711, ABS ID 14238711, IMO 9645645

Vessel has been under a dehumidification system at MARAD facility since it’s repossession in

2019.

The vessel underwent an ABS pre condition survey in January 27-28, 2021 and was found acceptable for readmission to ABS class.

There are no records of degraded equipment or deferred maintenance.

QUESTION 051 Work Item 581-11-001:

This BQ is a follow up to the previously submitted JSR bidder questions, Amendment 2 answers

008, 009.

Contractor acknowledge the release of ref 2.5 PM 390-563 however, this paint schedule (ref) makes no mention to the anchor chain and anchors preservation as guided in paragraph 3.4.

Furthermore, the answer related to question about New and Disturbed areas throughout the package: “Minimum surface preparation (touch-up) is defined for new and disturbed surfaces as less than 4 square feet.” Is open to various interpretations.

Would the government please properly address the anchor chain/ anchors preservation in the

Paint Schedule in order to obtain a quote from the correct Paint Manufacturer?

In addition, will the government please specify which is the minimum surface preparation standard acceptable for the less than 4 FT2 New and disturbed areas?

ANSWER 051 Work Item 581-11-001:

Yes, PM 390-563 Rev-A refers to minimum surface preparation standard acceptable for new and disturbed areas. PM390-563 Rev-A has been added to all work items in Errata 1 where preservation for each new and disturbed surface is required.

QUESTION 052 Section L:

SERMC Technical Library is unable to provide Reference 2.1(14319447-1, Service Manual).

This reference is critical during the estimating process and for the accomplishment of the tunnel thruster repair.

Can The government provide a working copy of Ref 2.1 (14319447-1, Service Manual)?

ANSWER 052 Section L:

No, Ref 2.1 (14319447-1, Service Manual) is classified confidential and is not authorized for issue. Ref 2.1 (14319447-1, Service Manual) is authorized to be viewed via the SERMC

Technical Library.
