Attachment 1 Solicitation Number: NGA-13-RFP-0052 High voltage Electrical Preventative Maintenance Amendment: Contractor Question and NGA Answers

Q.1. Reference Pro forma page 2 of 26 or RFP 5 of 159 paragraph B.7. and B.8. Emergency/Routine

Service Calls are limited to 16hours/year. What if more hours are needed?

A.1 Response: The Emergency/ Routine Service Calls include an estimated number of not-to-exceed hours, under the time and material component of the contract.

The Contractor per the FAR 52-232-7(d): Payments under Time-and Materials, is to notify the Contracting Officer when the not-to-amount has exceeded 85% of the ceiling price. If the Contractor believes the total price to the Gallery will be substantially greater or less than the stated ceiling price, the Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer, giving a revised estimate of the total price for performing this contract with supporting reasons and documentation.

Q.2. Reference SOW page 4 of 4 or RFP page 50 of 159 paragraph C.8. IR (infrared) Scan only performed on Option Year 2. The Industry Standards recommend that this be performed on an annual basis.

A.2. Response: There are two reasons that the Gallery has decided to include the Infrared Scanning as a bid option in Option Year 2 only.

First, we perform preventative maintenance on all of our high voltage electrical systems on a routine basis. Other agencies will use infrared testing only, as a way of identifying problems that need to be addressed. We deenergize and perform maintenance on ever piece of equipment.

The infrared testing that we perform is simply another level of inspection on top of a thorough maintenance program.

Second, the Gallery has purchased its own infrared camera and software. We plan to train our electricians in thermography so that they can perform the infrared inspections as part of their normal preventative maintenance and inspections. However, we are leaving infrared inspections in the contract (as a bid option) in case we cannot perform the work adequately enough ourselves.

Q.3. Reference Attachment 1, Exhibit 3B, Electrical Inventory Equipment List. For the Motor Control Centers, there are MCC-1W, 2W, 3W, and 4W, all 208V, 60A, 3-Section identified. There are MCC-1E, 3E, and 4E, all 208V, 60A, 3-Section identified. Should there be a MCC-2E, 208V, 60A, 3-Section? It looks like this piece is missing.

A.3. Response: The electrical inventory equipment list is accurate. Motor Control Center 2E (MCC2E) was demoed during work area 4, approximately two years ago.
