PPI# QUESTION RESPONSE

1 Site visit access requirements reference section

"H" of attachment "A". Par. 4.2 of sect "H" states "submit form 5512/1 (latest revision)".

Please provide this form. It is not present in the RFP package. Also provide site contact name and phone number for block 25 of the form.

Form 5512-1 is provided as Attachment L of this amendment. The site contact POC information is as follows:

JAMES BURZUMATO

COMM: (912)-573-4077

2 Will we also need to provide a "visit request letter" as we have had to do in the past?

A site visit request letter is not required for this procurement.

3 The name of the project suggest these cranes will be handling Explosive items (Explosive Handling Wharf Building No. 1 (EHW-1)). I cannot find any reference in the specifications that confirm that. There are no references to special design or explosion proof requirements either. Of course there are requirements for brakes, fail safe requirements, redundancy, etc.

Please confirm the application of the crane and advise if there are any special requirements for Explosion Proof. Please confirm that the cranes are or are not handling Explosive Loads.

Besides the Reference to OSHA, CMAA 70 and ASME B-30.2 are there any other Special Design Specs such as Navy, NOG or Other?

These are specified as ordnance cranes, and are not located in an area classified by NFPA 70 as being hazardous. There are no other special design requirements other than what are currently specified.

4 Generally my company will not agree to terms & conditions with unlimited Liquidated damages (no matter how small they are). Do I need to submit our business position on all of the terms that would need to be negotiated in this pre-bid submittal phase or would there be other remedies.

FAR 52.211-11 Liquidated Damages--Supplies, Services, or Research and Development is revised to cap liquidated damages at 5% of the total contract value (see Summary of Changes). As stated in Section 9 of the SF33, "All offers are subject to all terms and conditions contained in this solicitation." Section L is revised to include paragraph regarding terms and conditions (see Summary of Changes).

hoist on the operators chair, then in par. 2.3.3.9.1.3 a) it requirs a selector switch for main or aux hoist controls this implies that the main and aux share a joystick please clarify.

The main and the auxiliary hoists are individual joysticks. The selector switch only allows one hoist joystick to operate at a time, precluding the event of inadvertent contact with a joystick resulting in unintended movement of the hoist not currently selected. No changes to the specification are required.

6 General Can the existing crane drawings and building drawings (including the bumper systems) be made available prior to bidding? The installation / removal portion of this contract will be a major portion of the work and we will need to size equipment / plan the lifts in order to estimate the costs involved.

Available drawings and photos are provided via Amendment 0002. A sister crane installation video (approximately 1Gig) is also available via DOD SAFE (Secure Access File Exchange) . If you are interested in receiving this video, please email Mikel Outen at mikel.outen@navy.mil no later than 2PM ET on 26 March 2020.

7 General H Will the command provide escorts for the full duration of the on-site work window? If not will all onsite personnel need to pass a T-1 background investigation for un-escorted badging, and if so will they need to be fingerprinted at Kings Bay or will another DOD site be made available closer to the contractors location?

The work area (EHW-1) will be designated as No Escort for the duration of the project.

However, workers will require badging for Area 12 to reach EHW-1. A background investigation is required for Area 12 access.

8 General Will on-site sanitation faciliies be made available to the contractor or must we provide out own?

The contractor shall plan to provide their own sanitation facilities.

9 66 2.7 2.7.2 Par. 2.7.2 Prohibits stitch welding please clarify if this is only for exposed weld subject to corrosion or includes internal welding such as inside the girders where extensive use of stitch welding is used to secure diaphragms and stiffeners inside of box sections.

Para 2.7.2 applies only to exposed welds subject to corrosion. Internal stitch welds are acceptable.

10 58 2.3 2.3.3.13 Please provide the runway conductor system manufacturer and the bar size and location so we can estimate the cost of supplying the collectors

The current system is a US Safety Trolley Spanguard 520 amp and is being replaced in like and kind under a different contract.

11 General The specification makes numerous refernces to to a PLC.

Is a PLC required for these cranes if all the control logic can be performed in the drives themselves? Or with relay logic?

PLC's are not required. The logic can be performed in the drives or with relay logic so long as all requirements of the specification are met.

12 75 Cab dwg The cab drawing shows a "Movement Rotation Indicator System" on the side wall of the cab. There is no mention of this in the spec. Please clarify.

The specification is revised, via Amendment 0002, to include rotation indicators.

13 59 2.3 2.3.3.18 The first paragraph requires the Load pins to be part of the wire

The load indicating device and the load pin shall be one piece and shall be included in the wire rope to equalizer bar connection. The second paragraph then states that the load indication device shall be integrated into the load pin.

Please clarify.

rope to equalizer bar connections.

14 35-36 2.3 2.3.2.4 We cannot find any commericaly available insulated link that meets the 5:1 requirement for 120 ton capacity. Does the Government have a recommended manufacturer for these links?

Or will 4:1 be acceptable as this is the highest capacity we can find?

A 4:1 safety factor will be considered acceptable for the 120 ton capacity insulated link. A future Amendment will revise this requrement.

15 8 1.3 1.3.5 This paragraph requires the cranes be installed inside the building. After seeing ths site we feel there is no practical way to accomplish this. Please consider removing this requirement, and allow through the roof access.

The specification is revised via Amendment 0002 for the government to provide a roof opening.

16 General Will the elevators be operational and available for contractor use during installation / commisioning and removal?

Currently there is no available timeline for when the elevator will be operational. The government intends facility work, except the roof access hole, will be completed prior to crane work commencing in March 2022.

17 General Will there be power available outside the fenced area for office trailers?

Space and power for contractor trailers will be available. However, the contractor shall plan to make the power hookup and pay power utilities.

18 8-9 1.3 1.3.6 Will the Government have all the existing components being saved by the Government removed prior to the beginning of our on-site work window?

Bridge and trolley travel drives and motors will remain functional to enable positioning of the cranes. Contractor shall remove this equipment for government relocation to storage. Hoist are not functional.

19 19 SD-07 SD-07.3 Will the Government be providing a current certified survey of the new runway rails prior to us finalizing the crane design?

Yes, rail work is being completed under a different contract. A full rail survey will be provided to the Contractor upon completion of that contract.

21 36 2.3.4.4

Insulated hook factor of safety. H.J. HIRTZER, INC. does not have a 120T unit with a factor of safety more than 4:1. No other manufacturer has one that we can find. Is a factor of safety of 4:1 acceptable?

See Amendment 0002.

22 29 2.3.1.3

We have a manufacture who can make the girders without a mechanical or field splice. Is a field spice allowed if it’s more economical? Is a mechanical splice allowed?

The specification is revised via this Amendment (Amendment 0003).

23 RFP

Install of large equipment shouldn’t have to be only a crane. Will equivalent sized equipment satisfy this requirement if a specialized rigging company is used for the install and a past experience example with similar sized equipment and rigging challenges is presented?

Please propose per the solicitation.

520 amp conductor bar doesn’t seem to be enough upon first review of the requirements.

Who's responsibility is it to change this if 520 amps is not the correct size?

It is the government's responsibility to provide adequate conductor bar.

25 Why are they doubling the size of the aux hook capacity?

Crane requirements are based on known future needs.

26 Do you have any dwg files of the building for layout and rigging purposes? See Amendment 0002.

27 2.3.3.17 For the 40 ft. candle requirement for the flood lights. Is that to assume that the overhead lights are always on?

Assume the overhead lights are always off as in a worst-case scenario.

28 48 2.3.3 What grade of stainless do you want on the control enclosures? 304 or 316? See Amendment 0002.

29 Do you have any additional floor loading information on the wharf available? See Amendment 0002.

What is the total distributed weight we can put on the missile erection loading pads? Do you have drawing S26?

See Amendment 0002.

In 2.3.3.9.1.1 it talks about individual joysticks for the Main and Aux hoist. Then in 2.3.3.9.1.3a

– it requires a selector switch for the Main and Aux hoist controls. The selector switch implies that the Main and Aux are thru a single joystick.

The main and the auxiliary hoists are individual joysticks. The selector switch only allows one hoist joystick to operate at a time, precluding the event of inadvertent contact with a joystick resulting in unintended movement of the hoist not currently selected. No changes to the specification are required.

Same as above except for radio The main and the auxiliary hoists are individual joysticks. The selector switch only allows one hoist joystick to operate at a time, precluding the event of inadvertent contact with a joystick resulting in unintended movement of the hoist not currently selected. No changes to the specification are required.

Do I need to add PRIMARY & REDUNDANT control capability to the radio transmitter?

The primary and redundant controls are operated from the same joystick, but are electrically selected from selector switches mounted on the control panel for each function. A PRIMARY/REDUNDANT selector switch shall not be provided on the radio transmitter.

Can I get a better definition of what is meant by an ENGINEERING WORKSTATION? I think they are just looking for a place to plug in one of the two rugged laptops that they were asking for.

That was the approach I took anyway. If you have some insight, I’d be grateful.

The specification is revised via this Amendment (Amendment 0003).

The spec calls out a minimum of Class D performance of the crane motions. At maximum hook speed (12FPM) it will take almost 10 minutes to travel the entire 115’ from top to bottom. My guess is the hook speed will be considerably less which could potentially push us into a Class E or Class F territory on the main hoist. Should the main hoist be sized for Class E or F? The remaining motions seem fine at Class D.

The specification is revised via this Amendment (Amendment 0003).

There is no technical plan in the evaluation area.

How can the government determine who has the best plan for fabrication, shipping and installation. There is a big different between a 120ft girder and these girders for shipping and install.

Please propose per the solicitation.

37 29 2.3.1.3

This Section states……. "Field (on-site) splices are prohibited". Please confirm that Factory Field Bolted Splices are acceptable.

2.3.1.3 Bridge Girders

Bridge girders shall be box section type. Splices in the bridge girders shall be kept to a minimum and splices in locations of high stress shall be avoided. Splices shall be made with complete joint penetration welds. Field (on-site) splices are prohibited. Bridge girders shall be designed to be end notched to fit over the end truck. Girders shall be reinforced at the notches with vertical diaphragms and horizontal stiffeners. Bottom flanges shall be tapered towards the notches.

The specification is revised via this Amendment (Amendment 0003).

AMENDMENT 0004

PPI# 38-41

PPI# Page# Reference Question Response 38 General Please provide the Mean Sea Level to wharf deck dimension and tital range in EHW-1 (building drawings show deck elevation as 17', is this to Mean Sea Level?)

See drawing General Wharf Sections (Attachment P), Sheet 8 of 284, for mean, high and low water levels (Amendment 4).

39 General Please provide drawings of the lightning protection towers and wires which extend over the building so we can see what elevation they are and how far from the end of the building they are.

Wires will be moved by the government if necessary.

40 40 2.3 2.3.2.10 Hoist brakes are required to be "disc type electro-magnetic mechanical brakes" we interpret this as DC coil type brakes which, in are experience, will be problematic to maintain the required setting time delay in a "power-off" situation. We would recommend "disc type electro-mechanical" brakes utilizing AC thrusters for release which would have a lowering valve to provide a consistant time delay during a power off condition. Would this be allowable?

The intention of the requirement is to have fully enclosed brakes to protect it from the highly corrosive environment. Specification will not be amended.

41 44 2.3 2.3.2.15 The second paragraph requires tapered tread drive wheels. We recommend using straight tread wheels for a crane of this span, since it will not have a "squaring shaft" and will probably be an A-4 or double A-4 drive with VFD control. Can this requirement be removed or made optional?

Tapered tread drive wheels requirement will not be changed. Specification will not be amended.
