13-Jan-14 Page 6, Item # 0007, Option Item 6

This is a follow-up to Comment #27 on the draft solicitaion, as the issue remains unresolved. Please confirm that there is only one survival mooring system as part of this project - that for the submarine and not the IX-516 barge, and then correct the option description to remove the reverence to IC-516. Further either correct the description or the list of attachments for consistancy to either P099 (as in the Option description) or -100 as listed on page 13, whichever is correct.

There are two survival mooring systems. P100 includes an SMS for the ship as part of the base bid for P100. Option Item 6 to P099 is an SMS for the IX-516 barge.

Unfortunately, the final design for the SMS for the barge will be provided in a forthcoming amendment. It is much less complicated than the SMS for the ship but the final location had to be confirmed based on environmental and navigation factors, which impact the calculations, which affect the drawings. The specifications are the same as the ship SMS.

The prime contractor. N

14-Jan-14 00202.III.F.3.b.1.a.1 In Section 00202.III.F.3.b.1.a.1, General Construction Experience, item (iv) concrete pile foundation, is listed as a significant feature in the basis of evaluation that prime contractors must demonstrate it has managed in a submitted project. However, we believe that this feature of work kshould be included in the subsequent section 2, Specialized Construction Experience, as a specialized subcontractor typically performs it much like the Pier/Whart work, Industrial Support Facilities and Facility Security. In our last 2 projects for the military, both over $140M, neither had concrete pile foundations. However, if they did, a specialized subcontractor would have performed this work. Please consider moving this feature of work into the Specialized Construction Experience factor so we can submit our specialized teaming subcontractor for this requirement

The concrete and pile driving are critical pieces of this project. While we fully expect that there will be a specialized subcontractor actually performing the work, it is critical that the prime contractor has experience managing a project of the same magnitude that has dealt with these issues. We are not asking that the prime contractor self-performed this work, just that they have managed a project that included it.
