5. Incorporate revised FAR Clause 52.204-25, Prohibition on Contracting for Certain Telecommunications and Video Surveillance Services or Equipment (AUG 2020), by reference into Section I.

***No new questions will be answered, only questions that may arise from the below answers may receive a response.

Vendor Questions:

Question 1: Is this project being administered by USACE? Or will it be administered by DLA contracting?

Answer 1: DLA Distribution is administering this contract.

Question 2: The Bid bond Section of the solicitation requests for an amount of 20% but does not mention the Dollar amount. Can you please provide the information for the same?

Answer 2: The bid bond amount is 20% of your bid amount.

Question 3: Please confirm that the submission requirement will be changed from a hand delivered or mailed hard copy to electronic submission only as discussed at the site visit.

Answer 3: This was changed to an electronic submission through DoD SAFE exchange, please see Amendment 0002 for the details.

Question 4: Reference Specification Section 09 90 00 Paints and Coatings, confirm that only the painting indicated by the notes on the drawing includes all the painting required by the specifications.

Additionally, see question #5 below, confirm that the Fire Extinguishing Sprinkler System piping in the warehouse area and above the ceiling in the Administrative Annex fall under subparagraph 1.8.3.1 a. of this section and therefore does not need to be painted if “self-adhering red plastic bands spaced at maximum of 20 foot intervals” are provided.

Answer 4: Painting requirements include both requirements set forth in the project specifications as well as the contract drawings.

Question 5: See question #4 above, will all sprinkler pipe have to be painted? Currently some of the sprinkler piping is painted red or green.

Answer 5: All sprinkler piping in the warehouse and above the celling in the annex area will be painted RED. The use of self-adhering plastic bands instead of painting is not acceptable.

Question 6: Is Johnson Controls the preferred control contract for the base or the building?

Answer 6: The government does not have a preferred controls contractor. Johnson Controls and other control companies have and will do work on this base in the future.

Question 7: Is there a current roof warranty in place? If so, please provide the company, contact information, and any pertinent information.

Answer 7: There are two warranties in place for Building 82. The first warranty is for the main warehouse roof. This is a Carlisle roof, was installed around 2010, and carries a 15 year warranty. As of this time, we have been unable to locate the warranty information but the Government is working with the manufacturer to obtain this information. The second warranty is for the roofing installed over the dock areas otherwise called canopy roofing.

The canopy roofing is a Genflex product manufactured by Goodyear. It was installed in 2015. The Government is not certain of the duration of this warranty as we have been unable to locate this warranty although we believe that this roof system likewise carries a 15 year warranty. Both warranties will be available to the successful contractor at the start of the project after award.

Question 8: Who currently controls the building Fire Alarm system? Please provide the company, contact information, and any pertinent information.

Answer 8: The Installation has both a fire company and a security station with are both manned 24 / 7 / 365. All fire alarm systems are monitored by the Installation Dispatch Center.

Question 9: Will the existing materials stored on the racks be moved around as needed for the contractor to be able to perform the required sprinkler work?

Answer 9: Yes, material that is deemed to interfere with construction will be moved. Mission personnel must be given at least one week’s notice to allow them time to move materials from the racks presenting the construction interference.

Question 10: Will the office annex be vacant and restricted to construction activities only during the renovation of that portion of the project?

Answer 10: The Government is currently working through this issue. Although an amiable solution has not yet been reached with building participants, it is the Government’s intent to temporarily relocate up to 75% of personnel currently working in this area. For the purpose of bidding this contract, assume that the following rooms will remain active during construction: A101.16, A101.17, A101.20, A101.21, and A101.22.

Question 11: Will portions of the interior and exterior of the facility be restricted to construction activities only during the renovation of those portions of the project?

Answer 11: The mission and its personnel will always have first priority. That being said, when an area is under construction, the contractor must follow safety guidelines as defined in the project specifications. In these instances, Government personnel must respect construction areas and remain outside the perimeter of these work areas.

Question 12: Reference Schedule B, Is it the Government’s intent for all items (No. 0001 through 0011) to add up to the total project cost? If so, please define the scope under each item number for the bullet point stating “Other work as described in the contract documents.” so that total scope of each item is clearly understood by contractors.

Answer 12: This particular item appears to be a major source of confusion for many bidders. These works divisions are required to define the cost associated with work on various assets on the Installation for the purpose of accounting for these assets separately. To simplify this division to an extent, consider CLINs 0001, 0002, and 0003 as any work that is associated with Building 82. This includes anything within, on, or on top of the building. In general, any item within, on, or on top of Building 82 repaired or painted, that is to say not being demolished is considered to be a Maintenance Item (CLIN 0001). Any item that is being repaired (by replacement) that is to say that something is being demolished and replaced with something else is to be considered Building Repair (CLIN 0002). Finally, anything within, on or on top of Building 82 that is being constructed for the first time, that is nothing was there before, is considered Minor Construction (CLIN 0003). These first three CLINs represent approximately 85% of the total project cost. The last group of CLINs (0004-0011) are minor assets and are typically outside of the building perimeter. This would include concrete pads, electrical, gas, water, and sewer services to / from the building. Costs associated with these items are to be grouped into the applicable CLIN number.

CLIN 0001 through 0011 are all separately priced, when added up make the total bid price.

Question 13: Reference AD-103, AD-113, A-103, A-113, Confirm that only the ceilings in Rooms A101.5, A101.6, A101.17, A101.20, A101.21, and A101.22 are to be replaced with new, and that all other finish, specialties, equipment, and furnishings are existing to remain. Also, confirm that the specialties, equipment, and furnishings are existing to remain in Rooms A101.10 and A101.11. Lastly, please confirm that there is no work in Rooms A101.8 and A101.9.

Answer 13: All acoustical ceilings panels and grid shown on AD-113 must be removed. Ceilings that remain are A101.18, A101.8, A101.9.

A101.10 and A101.11 – lockers and bench are to remain.

A101.8 and A101.9 – lights to be removed.

The only items on AD-113 to remain are items that are greyed out, everything else is to be removed.

Question 14: Reference A-201, A-202, A-203, General Elevation Note #7 and #9 as well as various Key Notes refer to repairing damaged CMU, there were several areas where damage to the CMU wall was observed during the site visit, how should other areas of damaged CMU or other wall surface materials be addressed that are scheduled to be repainted?

Answer 14: G-003 – Bid pricing. Rough estimate of damage was provided to GC to provide bid pricing.

The final locations and extent of repairs need to be coordinated with the GC and COR.

Question 15: Reference A-201, A-202, A-203, General Elevation Note #1 implies the entire exterior of the building is to be repainted and refers to sheet G-002, which is the Sheet Index and does not indicate a paint color, please identify the correct sheet and paint specification.

Answer 15: Note should reference G-003. Paint colors are under general notes.

Question 16: Reference 1/A-203, what is the scope of work for the shed and screen wall with the vertical siding shown on the east elevation?

Answer 16: Shed, screen wall, and vertical siding must be painted.

Question 17: Reference A-101 through A-105, Please confirm that there is no interior wall patching or painting work in the warehouse portion of the project unless specifically identified by Key Note.

Floor Plan General Notes #4 and #5 imply that there is patching, repairing, and painting in these areas that is not shown and cannot be quantified, if required how does the Government expect the contractors to address the scope and quantity of this work?

Answer 17: See G-003 – Bid pricing. Rough estimate of damage was provided to GC to provide bid pricing. The final locations and extent of repairs need to be coordinated with the GC and

COR.

Question 18: Reference A-101 through A-105, Floor Plan General Notes #2 and #3 imply that there is patching and repairing of the loading dock surface, ramps and curbs that is not shown and cannot be quantified, if required how does the Government expect the contractors to address the scope and quantity of this work?

Answer 18: See G-003 – Bid pricing. Rough estimate of damage was provided to GC to provide bid pricing. The final locations and extent of repairs need to be coordinated with the GC and

COR.

Question 19: Reference FA-101 through FA-105, General Notes #3 implies that there will be conduit removal and relocation that is not shown and cannot be quantified, if required how does the Government expect the contractors to address the scope and quantity of this work?

Answer 19: This is means and methods and is dependent on the contractors scheduling of the project.

If the contractor selects to replace the windows before the fire alarm replacement, then the contractor is aware that fire alarm conduit will be in the way of the window replacement work. If the contractor selects to replace the fire alarm system before the window replacement, then there is no coordination issue between the existing fire alarm conduit and window replacement work. The intent of the note is to make the contractor aware that conduit is present and coordinate between the various trades will be required.

Question 20: Reference E-001 through E-701, Confirm that there is no lighting work required within the warehouse portion of the project.

Answer 20: Lighting within the Warehouse areas of the building were upgraded and are to remain.

Branch circuits serving the lighting are to remain and be intercepted with a new wireway at the panel that is being installed. Panel schedules note the branch circuits as “Ex. L – Row

Question 21: Reference Specification Section 09 90 00 Paints and Coatings, Confirm that only the painting indicated by the notes on the drawing includes all the painting required by the specifications.

Additionally, see question # 2 above, confirm that the Fire Extinguishing Sprinkler System piping in the warehouse area and above the ceiling in the Administrative Annex fall under subparagraph 1.8.3.1 a. of this section and therefore does not need to be painted if “self-adhering red plastic bands spaced at maximum of 20 foot intervals” are provided.

Answer 21: See answer to Question #4 above.

Question 25: Drawing E-301 Feeder tags for panel Z103 to H101 there are two feeder tags pointing to this feeder run 4W110 by panel Z103 and 4W150 by panel H101.

a. Please clarify which tag is correct.

Answer 25: Panel Z103 is scheduled with a 100A/3 MCB and the feeder breaker in Panel H101 that feeds Panel Z103 is indicated to be 100A/3. Therefore, the 4W110 feeder 4-#2+#6G in 1 ¼”C should be installed.

Question 26: What CLIN bid number would the work for the generator quick connect cabinet along with conduit and feeder wiring fall under?

Answer 26: Since this is not replacing anything that is already there, it would be considered new and is therefore falls under CLIN 0003, minor construction.

Question 27: What CLIN item is the work in Boiler/Mech Room A102 (drawing E502) in?

Answer 27: Since this is not replacing anything that is already there, it would be considered new and is therefore CLIN 0003, minor construction.
