Davis-Bacon wage determination will be applicable for electrical work.

Question 2:

Will all new VLM’s need to be fully operational and tested prior to the start of the demolition phase of the project?

Can dumpsters be placed along the dock on the side of the building for tear out? If not, where?

How long is it going to take DDAG personnel to move the contents from the existing VLM’s to the new VLM’s?

One hundred and eighty days are scheduled following the acceptance of the VLM system.

Question 7:

If this process slows down the demolition phase of the project, will the contract time period be extended so as not to incur any financial penalties?

Response 7:

The contractor will not be financially penalized if the Government requests to delay the equipment demolition phase.

Question 8:

Will the contractor have complete access to the existing VLM’s for demolition from 0600 to 1800 Monday – Friday?

Response 8:

Yes, except holidays.

Amendment 0002

Question 9:

Based on the statements made in paragraph 3.1, is it correct that the government is seeking the manufacturers “current commercially available” model that best fits the specifications for both capacity and velocity?

Response 9:

All equipment (each whole product with its integral software) shall be the manufacturer’s current, commercially designed and available or a commercial product that has been slightly modified to fit the proposed system.

Question 10:

Paragraph 3.2.2.4 states that tray is delivered automatically to the external access delivery point. Was it not stated during the round table discussion, at the site visit, that the word “external” would be removed and replaced by “delivery to the access point”?

Response 10:

Paragraph 3.2.2.4 is revised. “Once the user has completed the actions required in the first tray, the second tray is delivered automatically to the access delivery point while the VLM dynamically returns the first tray to its first available stored position.”

Question 11:

Must we offer a bid on all line items or can we no bid certain items 0003 & 0004?
