What in the FAR supports the position that the contractor accept all pre-existing conditions? Site visits are a 6 hour, at best, snap shot. Based upon the snapshot, we can only conclude that there is a lot of obsolescence and pre-existing condition due to neglect. Does the Government expect a contractor to take on all of the risk in the bid for recurring services? A few examples follow

a. At the water plant, 3 pumps badly corroded including their journal bearings

b. Building 749 red roll up doors flaking paint

c. Pumps at wastewater plant have aggressive corrosion

d. Electrical distribution system at waste water plant is corroded e Most piping at the waste water plant is badly in need of corrosion control

All systems and equipment included in this contract shall be accepted by the successful offeror in "as is" condition. The Contractor is fully responsible for all work up to and including the specified recurring work limits of liability.

This spec item states “The Contractor shall provide a Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) to manage all service operations . . .” and that the government’s CMMS is MAXIMO. Having two systems creates the opportunity for errors and additional work that is overly redundant. MAXIMO is a fully capable of functioning as the single CMMS for this contract.

See Government response to GPI No.: 21.

21 12/7/2017 Question: Since the government already has MAXIMO, will the government allow the contractor to use MAXIMO for work management?

No. the Contractor shall provide a Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) to manage all service operations. Refer to: Section C, Annex 0200000 Management and Administration, Spec Item 2.6.6 Computerized Maintenance Management Systems (CMMS).

22 12/7/2017 55 C 3.1

This spec item states “The Contractor may invoice for completed service orders. The Contractor shall not invoice for incomplete service orders and service orders not issued. A modification will be process at the end of each period of performance to deduct for service orders not issued and incomplete service orders. Deduction will be based on the unit prices specified in Attachment J-0200000-13 ELINs.” This item only discusses deductions if service orders fall below the amounts listed in the ELINs.

There is no discussion regarding the situation where the number of service orders EXCEEDS the amount listed in the ELINs. Additionally, the number of service orders in the ELINs are broken out by each tenant organization. It is unclear whether the government will consider the total number of service orders completed or the number of service orders per tenant organization.

Question:

a.Will the government allow the contractor to invoice for service orders that EXCEED the amount listed in the ELINs?

b.When counting the number of service orders completed during a period of performance, is the government going by the total number of service orders or the number of service orders for each ELIN / tenant organization?

b.Can an offeror propose benefits and wage rates in compliance with the SCA wage determination instead of proposing CBA benefits and wage rates?

c.Would the Government please provide a seniority list for incumbent CBA personnel?

The information regarding effective dates of the agreements is contained within each

CBA.

In accordance with 41 U.S.C. 6707(c)(1), a contractor may not pay a service employee less than the wages and fringe benefits the employee would have receieved under the predecessor contract.

The Government does not currently have a seniority list.

We understand that government wants the contractors to be responsible for the "entire system" under either the PM and/or IMP program. However, in order to determine the appropriate number of materials and labor hours to service the system contractors need to understand the quantities/pieces of equipment included within the system. In the J-1502000-23 HVAC equipment list provided bidders cannot determine how many supporting pieces of equipment are within the system. For example, on page 1, Westside facility 13. Should the contractor assume there is 10 AHUs and 10 Split systems, 10 air cooled condensers, and 0 VAV Boxes, no heat exchangeers, 10 heat pumps, no pumps, no fans?

The government is going to get a solution where contractors do their best to extrapolate out the number of pieces of equipment per system. Then they will make assumptions on the number of pumps, evaporators, VAVs, valves, fans etc. Does not have an asset/equipment list by building in MAXIMO?

Can the government provide a complete asset/equipment list by building so contractors can understand the quantities of HVAC equipment we are responsible for?

A component level inventory will not be provided.

The Performance Work Statement (PWS) are based on a Systems Approach. The Contractor is responsible for the Systems described in the PWS and all mechanically and electrically interlocked parts, equipment, components, and any materials therein forming the systems.

Context: M.3 EVALUATION FACTORS, (b)Non-cost/price Factors, (1) Factor 1, Corporate Experience, (ii) Basis of Evaluation states, “Projects completed by a proposed subcontractor will be considered unacceptable.” It then goes on to state, “if the offeror is a Joint Venture (JV), each member of the JV must demonstrate prime contractor experience on at least one relevant project.”

Question: As written, this seems to give an unfair advantage to a Joint Venture over traditional prime/subcontractor relationship as it will allow multiple teamed companies to provide corporate experience under a JV, but prohibits the use of significant subcontractors outside of a JV. Would the Government consider allowing bidders to include up to now more than two corporate experience and past performance citations for significant subcontractors, so as to ensure a fair and level playing field?

The Government has reviewed the requirement and confirmed that it remains as stated in the RFP.

70 12/7/2017 71 RFP Section M M.3.3.b.4

Context: M.3 EVALUATION FACTORS, (b)Non-cost/price Factors, (4) Factor 4, Safety Question: Please confirm that EMR, DART and TRC Rates are not be submitted for significant subcontractors under a non-Joint Venture teaming relationship.

EMR, DART and TRC Rates shall not be submitted for subcontractors, including significant subcontractors.

71 71-72 RFP Section M M.3.3.b.4.i.a

For EMR, DART, and TRC, the RFP requests data for the “three previous complete calendar years.” Based on this phrasing, this is years 2015, 2016, and 2017. However, this only allows for 9 work days in 2018 to compile and calculate data for 2017. Is it acceptable to utilize complete data for years 2014, 2015, and 2016 if data for 2017 is not complete?

For initial proposal submission, yes.

As stated in the Non-Price Factor 5, Past Performance (i), if a completed CPARS evaluation is available for each project submitted in response to Factor 1, it shall be submitted with the proposal.

It is at the offeror's discretion to submit more than one CPARS evaluation for each project submitted in response to Factor 1 if more than one is available.

73 12/7/2017 73 RFP Section M M.3.3.b.5.i

Context: M.3 EVALUATION FACTORS, (b)Non-cost/price Factors, (4) (5) Factor 5, Past Performance states “Also include performance recognition documents received within the last five years such as awards, award fee determinations, customer letters of commendation, and any other forms of performance recognition.”

Question: Are these performance recognition documents limited to only those associated with the submitted past performance citations, or can they include corporate level citations or positive feed recognition from other customers?

Additionally, under a JV, multiple companies will have the ability to provide this documentation. Under a traditional teaming agreement only the Prime can include this information. Will the government consider allowing significant subcontractors to provide performance recognition documents?
