Request for electronic bid submission on bid due date in lieu of hard copies for reasons stated above in question 1.

Please bid per RFP 00003

24 Telecom In the Combination Floor Box Schedule on Drawing TN601 there is a column labeled 'Telecom Outlet Type'. It has the outlets listed as x/x/x with each x being an outlet type. A sequence that appears multiple times is 1/SP/S. I know that the Nmber 1 stands for a Type 1 outlet and the 'S' stands for a SIPR Outlet (See Note 2 on TN601). However there is no where that 'SP' is defined. I assume it means that it is a spare outlet and doesnt require cabling but I can't be sure? What does the 'SP' stand for?

SP stands for space and is to be left open.

00003

25 4 CLIN 3 With the current "work from home" requirement being enforced by most companies would it be acceptable to provide an email from our banking institution demonstrating adequate financial resources in place of a signed bank reference? Our banking institution is unable to provide such a letter without going into the office location, and at this time they are all working from home.

Please bid per RFP 00003

26 1 14 Amendment 0001 cancels the site visit previously scheduled for 24 March, is NAVFAC scheduling an alternative site walk for this solicitation.

No 00003

27 2 02 41 00 1.2.2 The specifications state the following: "It is the contractor's responsibility to provide pricing to remove and dispose of all existing furniture and equipment in the building at the time of the initial building walk-through's. Since the site walk was cancelled NAVFAC will need to provide contractors with a detailed list of all equipment, along with photos, of the building contents which will need to be disposed.

See attached FFE list, FFE floorplan, and existing building photos for B286 and B4038.

00004

28 4 02 41 00 1.6.1 Is construction water available on MCBCP and if there available is there a cost for water usage.

Water is always available for base contract work at the fill station located at the water plant free of charge.

If a contractor desires water to be setup at a construction trailer, the contractor must hire a licensed plumber to install a tap and have backflow prevention installed and tested.

Paperwork must be submitted to the Base.

This is all at the contractors expense.

Usually during demo work all utilities are demo'd as well, so having water at the demo site is dependent on if the contract calls for water utilities to be demo'd. If water will remain at the bldgs.

contractors must install a backflow preventer on the desired hydrant and have a licensed tester test the assembly and submit the certified paperwork to the Base.

00003

29 1 1.1 The specifications state that the Government will employ the services of an independent, Commissioning Firm. Please provide the number of calendar days that the Commissioning Firm will require so that those days can be incorporated in the Contractors schedule.

The Commissioning Firm is employed by the Government and will require approximately 58 days.

00004

30 6-7 3.1 Pursuant to the demolition specifications the contractor is required to salvage/recycle numerous items from the existing building, the lack of a site walk prevents contractors from acturately performing a qualified takeoff from the plans provided. If a site walk is not going to be provided will NAVFAC provide the detailed drawings of the the buildings to be demolished along with photos.

General Demolition sheets are included in the set which do include drawings and some existing photos.

Also see attached Site Investigation Report for additional existing photos. See attached existing As-Built drawings for buildings B4038 and B4162.

Additional drawings and photos will be forthcoming as the Base is currently in the process of gathering additional information and will be distributed as they become available.

00003

31 8 3.10 The specifications state that the following: "Offsite disposal of contaminated material shall be in accordance with design documents and base requirements." MCBCP, as the generator of hazardous waste must currently have a detailed disposal plan which would be incorporated in the base requirements for disposal, please make this document available to contractors.

The Base does not have a detailed disposal plan. We do not identify any disposal sites. All language is similar to “dispose in accordance with local, state, and federal regulations” or “as directed by the COR”.

00003

32 1-4 1.2 Specifications require the contractor to remove and dispose of PCB containing lighting ballasts and associated mercury-containing lamps. The lack of a site visit prevents the contractor from acturately identifying the size and level of effort required to remove each unit. Could NAVFAC provide a detailed list along with photos, and height of units from floor.

See attached Site Investigation Report for existing building photos. See attached drawings for existing as-built drawings. See attached Hazardous Materials Report for the project. Additional drawings and photos will be forthcoming.

33 3.(a) With the current "work from home" requirement being enforced by most companies would it be acceptable to provide an email from our banking institution demonstrating adequate financial resources in place of a signed bank reference?

a. Can we use a 12-strand fiber and a 4U enclosure which is standard for strand count, we see 6,12 and 24 to be standard fiber counts and not a custom order with a long lead time like the 8-strand (the adapter panels will need to be 12-strand, they are not made in an )

12-strand fiber and 4U enclosure is acceptable

00004

71 TH07 1. On drawing TN07 Note C2 Telecom One-Line it depicts eight

(8) runs of 12-strand SM OS1 fiber.

That is correct. 00004

a. On drawings TN202, the matrix and the note C2 reflects fiber in both racks as well as the matrix. What is the requirement.

Provide fiber per one-line to fiber patch panels of racks. For example one-line shows (1) 12 strand to rack B1; fiber patch panel in B2 is spare.

00004

b. On drawing TN204 Note C3 reflects a fiber enclosure in all three secure racks but the One Line drawing on TN07 only shows one (1) 24-strand. What is the requirement.

The requirement is one 12 strand fiber to S5.

This would be a half populated patch panel;

not all ports will have cabling.

00004

c. On drawing TN205 Note C3 reflects a fiber enclosure in one rack but the matrix reflects two racks. What is the requirement.

Provide for D1 rack in elevation. B2 was left in table accidently and should ignored on

TN205.

00004

72 TN501 1. On drawing TN501 Note A3 depicts a television wall plate with a data jack (A) and a Coaxial jack

(B) and two blanks.

Yes. That is correct. 00004

a. On drawings TN602 the matrix for the wall plates shows the TV data jack in the voice column. What is the requirement?

The data jack should be classified as UCLAS data in lieu of phone.

They should be terminated at a UCLAS patch panel.

00004

73 TN602 1. On drawing TN602 Comm Rm 130 room 184 conf. should that first item be a TV?

This is referring to the outlet in184-1 floorbox.

See combo box schedule sheet TN601 for outlet types. 184-1 shall be Type 4 / Space / Type S outlet. Only using 3 gangs of 8.

00004

74 1. Will all of the conduit pathways for the copper and fiber backbone be in the plenum space and not installed below the slab?

Yes all backbone cabling shall be routed in plenum overhead as shown on TN004.

00004

75 3.5.1.4 1. 3.5.1.4 Final Verification Testing. This is not something that we have seen on any other projects is this truly a requirement of the Telecom Contractor?

Yes this testing per section 3.5.1.4 is required. Coordinate with base telephone for completion.

77 24 00 10 00 The RFP includes a CLIN schedule on pages 24-27 of the RFP. Further, Attachement I - Price Proposal Form (00 22 13.00

20) was provided.

Please confirm for the Price Proposal only Attachment I is required to be completed for the Price Proposal. (Note on Attachment I, CLIN 3 has a typo and is listed as CLIN 4)

Please use Price Proposal Form Attachment I

00004

78 22 00 10 00 4.2 The Proposal Submission Instructions allows for the Price Proposal Form as well as the Small Business Subcontracting Plan to be submitted Electronically. The rest of the proposal is to be delivered to NAVFAC's office as Hard Copies.

Due to the pandemic and Government Offices limiting access and unable to accept deliveries, we suggest all Price and Non-Cost/Price proposals be submitted electronically.

Please provide means to submit the propsoals electronically.

Please see Amendment

79 21 09 90 00 3.13.

Specification 09 90 00 Paints and Coatings Section 3.13.2 Interior Paint Tables calls for the High Performance Architectural Latex - Scrubbable Coating System for all Accent Color Walls to be scuffmaster or equal to and for the Scrub Test to be greater than 13,100 cycles per ASTM D2486.

Scuffmaster's normal eggshell product is only 8,000 scrub cycles and to get to the 13,100 you would have to use their premium coat texture product that is applied by an air spray gun only. With all other walls being just regular paint with a solid color, is the premium product desired to add the texture on the accent walls?

8,000 scrub cycles with no special applications is acceptable for accent walls.

80 08 71 00 The hardware schedule included in specification section 087100 has for hardware set 17.0 description:

Card Access – STC Assembly, but there is not any information on the door schedule to show which doors will need to have the card readers. Please list all door numbers requiring card readers.

Refer to Amendment #003.

00004

81 08 71 00 The hardware schedule included in specification section 087100 has a hardware set 19.0 description:

Card + Combination Lock Access

– STC Assembly, but there is not any information on the door schedule to show which doors will need to have the combination lock or the card readers. Please provide a list of these door numbers

Refer to Amendment #003.

82 A0002 The answer to PPI 12 in Amendment 0002 is to "Provide bid as specified." The GET Geotechnical report specifically states the groundwater table was measured at depths ranging from

6.5 to 9.5 feet below existing grade. Seasonal fluctuations of +- 2 to 3 feet are common. Land Management Group was consulted, and confirmed the Seasonal High Water Table would be at 21 to 36 inches below the ground surface. The GET report also verifies in section 1.2 that the 6 acre site is within a LUC boundary due to existing contaminated soil and groundwater conditions. C-008 verifies this as LUC Area 14, and notes than any groundwater encountered must be containerized, treated, and properly disposed of. It is unreasonable to expect the General Contractor to know how much groundwater they will encounter over the life of the project. There is no way to quantify that during the bid. This is identical to the amount of contaminated soil that will be encountered. CLIN 0001AF sheds the risk for the soil by providing an estimated quantity of soils, and a unit price. We are simply asking for a very similar CLIN to be added for contaminated ground water encountered. Please provide an estimated quantity of contaminated groundwater to be included in the bid, and a unit price for any amounts above or below that amount.

The response in Amendment 002 was a typo. It was revised in Amendment 003 to read the following:

"Bid Form has been edited to include a line item “Treatment of Contaminated Groundwater” as requested with a quantity of 250,000 gallons". See attached revised Bid Form.

00004

83 Amendm ent 3

5 of 12 The Gov't answers the question;

"Bid Form has been edited to include a line item “Treatment of Contaminated Groundwater” as requested with a quantity of 250,000 gallons". Is NAVFAC going to povide an updated Attachment I -Bid Form?

Revised Bid Form was inadvertantly excluded in previous amendment and will be issued. See attached.

88 Electrica l

Are multiple single-phase circuits allowed in a single conduit for branch circuiting homeruns (i.e.

from the panel to a local grid box)?

Yes but per E-001 all wiring must be to NEC.

All variations/changes to circuits must submitted for review and approval prior to installation.

00004

89 Electrica l

If multiple single phase-circuits are allowed in a single conduit, how many current-carrying conductors are allowed in a single conduit?

Limit multi circuit branch wiring to 3 circuits. Neutrals shall not be shared.

00004

90 Electrica l

E-001 When sizing branch circuit conductors for homeruns to panels, are we to follow the parameters set on drawing E-001 General Note 14, or do we follow the conductor sizes noted on the panel schedules for each individual circuit?

These are set forth as minimums. Please use conductor sizes indicated in panelboards which have been modified for voltage drop.

92 01 45 00.00

The Quality Control Spec, section

1.5.8 Submittal Reviewer is

requiring a registered architect or PE reivew each submittal. It is A-typical for a contractor to have a registered architect on a DBB project team, and licensed PE's are not common, even on experienced DOD project teams. On similar NAVFAC projects, we have seen this exact language read the submittals need reviewed by someone with 10 years or more experience. Please confirm if this requirement can be switched.

Second paragraph under 01 45 00.00 20 which reads, "Each submittal must be reviewed by a registered architect or professional engineer."

can be struck out.

Replace with "Each submittal must be reviewed by an individual with 10 years of construction experience".
