ADDENDUM NO. 02

GENERAL

The following information, changes, modifications, corrections, clarifications, additions and/or deletions as set forth herein shall apply to the above referenced Request For Qualification (RFQ) package and shall be made a part thereof and be subject to all of the requirements as though originally specified and/or shown.

You must acknowledge receipt of all RFQ Addenda received by itemizing them by number and date on your Prequalification Response form.

1. Several factors have had bearing on the BioEPIC project timeline. At this time the University does not anticipate awarding the CM-GC subcontract any sooner than approximately December 2020 – January 2021, at which time we anticipate the Design documents will be 100%. The Preconstruction Services scope will focus less on influencing the design development, and focus more on pre-planning, collaboration, and lower-tier subcontracting.

2. Question: Will the Fixed Price be broken down by Phase?

Answer: Yes. The RFP Price Proposal form will request separate pricing for Preconstruction (CM) and Construction (GC):

· Phase 1 CM Services = CM-GC + Major Subcontractors

· Phase 2 GC Services (Option) = General Requirements + Major Subcontractors

The fixed price for the other lower-tier subcontractors will be determined during the Phase 1 CM Services, and included in the Phase 2 Option fixed price should the University elect to exercise the Phase 2 GC Services Option.

3. Question: Will Relevant Projects with some, but not all of the desirable relevant elements be considered?

Answer: Yes. The relevant elements are not a minimum requirement, but rather desirable relevant elements. Relevant Projects with all of the desirable relevant elements may be evaluated more favorably, but Relevant Projects with some of the desirable relevant elements, or desirable relevant elements represented by separate projects, may still be evaluated.

4. Question: Is it permissible to alter the Prequalification Response form spreadsheet?

Answer: The Prequalification Response form spreadsheet is intended to provide a uniform means for Offerors to respond specifically to the factors stated in the Prequalification Notice. The Offeror is directed to enter information only in the green shaded fields. The Information provided by the Offeror appears in blue font. Altering contents in fields not shaded green may result in an Offeror’s proposal being deemed non-responsive.

The response fields in the spreadsheet may be altered to better accommodate narrative and paragraph discussion:

· insert additional rows within the green shaded response field (rather than altering column widths)

· use [Alt] [Enter] for a paragraph return within the green shaded response field

· use bold, italics, or underline blue font text in the green shaded response field if desired for emphasis
