Solicitation Based on tight scheduling time frames for each phase and high liquidated damages for the work phases included in the contract documents,(5 of 12 at $75,000/calendar day) the financial risk associated with this project is high.

For example, a project of this size takes at least a minimum of 2-3 months for adminstrative & safety related submittals prior to starting construction due to the required 20 working days for Government review/approval allowed in the specifications. Similar to all projects bid this time of the year, the project will be awarded at the end of September. If the contractor is unable to start the project until the end of the 2020 calendar year on the first phase of work, we will be limited to only 3-4 months out of the alloted 6 months to execute the first phase of work. In addition, this does not account for any potential delay of: long lead procurement items (flood gates), weather days, and government holidays. Additionally, a delay in the first phase of work affects all subsequent phases.

Please re-evaluate and provide your detailed schedule for each phase of work because at this time, it is uncertain any phase can be properly accomplished within the specified time frames. In addition, please reconsider the current use of specific

All of the Milestone Dates remain the same except Phase 1 Acceptance Date.

Phase 1 & 2 will be allowed to overlap.

Dates are planned to work around Dry Dock and Berth Projects, as well as other construction projects within NNSY. If the contractor needs to plan to work 2 or 3 shifts, or weekends during the begining of the project, or any phases to complete the dates, it's their responsbility. New Phase 1 completion date is 29MAY21.

timelines for all 12 phases and eliminating liquidated damages for each specific phase.

Page 37-

Solicitation Please consider allowing the contractor to work in multiple areas at once. This gives the contractor (and their respective subcontractors) the flexibility to share resources between the different phases and does not limit them to single areas. Any flexibility that can be provided will lower the bid price and the overall project becomes more manageable. We suggest:

Eliminating the phased liquidated damages and have definitive timelines for the work around the dry docks/waterfront but allow the other phases to be fill in work with no definitive time lines.

The phasing is planned around Dry Dock and Berth Projects, as well as other construction projects within NNSY. The phasing is also spaced out to minimize the contractor work areas to become excessive and impact NNSY activities.

Page 37-

Solicitation Due to the inherent risk associated with this project's phase work approach, and the tight timelines and substantial liquidated damages associated with 5 of 12 of them, we request 3 additional weeks to prepare our proposals and bidding package.

Response forthcoming

Solicitation Why are the liquidated damages for Phases 4-8 $75,000 per calendar day delay? This seems high. As you know, the liquidated damaged values should be reflective of the actual potential damages the Navy could incur due to this delay. In accordance with published Naval Facilities Acquistion Standards (NFAS), has this

Solicitation Due to the rare occurrence of $20M construction contracts related to this type of work in the past 10 years, since this overall solicitation has 12 separate smaller phases, (in an effort to promote more qualified competition), please consider reducing the relevant construction projects to a minimum of $15M or greater construction costs within the past 15 years.

Response forthcoming.

Solicitation Due to the tight timelines for the phases work and and substantial liquidated damages, please consider reducing the bid acceptance period of 120 days to 60 days.

Is it possible for the caissons to be taken out of Norfolk Naval Shipyard, to an off site facility, to be repaired in accordance with the design documents?

14 of 54 4 4.1 Does the site visit include walking into Controlled Industrial Area’s that we will need to request access via CVS- CIA spreadsheet? Or is Controlled Access something we DO NOT need to request for this site visit?
