Contractors may not substitute alternative configurations such as four 2000kW units or parallel units on trailers without approval from the revised specifications documents. Pricing must be submitted to include both the unit price for 12 months and the total cost for all five generators per year, formatted in both Attachment IV (Generator ELINS v4.1.1) and Attachment III Section B (Supplies or Services & Prices or Costs). For option periods with non-recurring quantities, contractors must provide weekly and monthly rates for 500kW and 1000kW units. The recurring base quantities of five generators shall be provided for 12-month terms. Non-recurring services tabs in the pricing workbook reference requirements in Amendment 0003, Attachment III Section B.
