Solicitation W15QKN-19-Q-1080 Questions and Answers HVAC Repair, W. Hartford, CT January 30, 2019

Question1: "Regarding section 11.2.1 of the Specification of Work document: We believe there is an Alerton Building Management System (BMS) currently in place at this facility, installed by Automated Building Systems, Inc. in 2016. The BMS is currently monitoring and controlling the hot water and chilled water pumps being replaced as part of this project. The split system being replaced as part of this project does not appear on the 2016 BMS as-built drawings, so we believe it is not currently under BMS control. Is there scope of work for ABS to bid related to the BMS as part of this solicitation?

Answer 1: No, it is not currently under BMS control. There is no scope of work for ABS to do work, and representation is not required for the walkthrough. The circulator pumps were not a part of the 2016 upgrade, which is why they weren't on the 2016 as-built.

Question 2. A contractor consulted with Taco, and Taco says the model numbers listed in the specification are not correct. Can you please verify the part numbers listed in the specifications of work in the following paragraphs?

Answer 2: These were the numbers directly taken off the data plates of each pump, these plates are currently onsite and can be reviewed when contractors arrive.
