SECTION SF 30 BLOCK 14 CONTINUATION PAGE

The following items are applicable to this modification:

AMEND 0001

1. REFERENCE COMBINED SYNOPSIS/SOLICITATION W25G1V-16-R-0039, ATTACHMENT 1

PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT, PARAGRAPH 2.4.2.2, SEMI-ANNUAL SERVICES, DELETE THE

LAST SENTENCE "THE ANNUAL SERVICE DATE MAY COINCIDE WITH THE QUARTERLY

MAINTENANCE VISIT."

CONTACTOR QUESTION RECEIVED WITH THE GOVERNMENT'S RESPONSE:

Q1. I NOTICED THAT UNDER 2.4.2.2 THAT IT REFERENCES QUARTERLY MAINTENANCE

VISITS? IT APPEARS THAT WE ARE CONTINUING WITH SEMI-ANNUAL SERVICES AND NOT DOING

QUARTERLY SERVICE.

A1. CORRECT. "SEMI-ANNUAL" SERVICES ONLY. SEE PARAGRAPH 2.4.2.2 AS PER THIS

AMENDMENT PARAGRAPH 1 ABOVE.

2. REFERENCE COMBINED SYNOPSIS/SOLICITATION ATTACHMENT 1, PARAGRAPH 2.4.2. 1.1 (19), DELETE IN ITS ENTIRETY.

CONTRACTOR QUESTION RECEIVED WITH THE GOVERNMENT'S RESPONSE:

Q2. IT IS ALSO CHANGED TO READ REPLENISH OIL AS NECESSARY? ARE WE NOT

PERFORMING ANNUAL OIL AND FILTER CHANGES OR ARE WE GOING TO RELY ON THE OIL AND

COOLANT TESTS TO TELL US WHEN FLUID CHANGES SHOULD OCCUR? IF THAT IS THE CASE,

SHOULD 2.4.2.1.1(19) BE REMOVED. OUR RECOMMENDATION WOULD BE TO CHANGE OIL, OIL

FILTERS, COOLANT FILTERS AND FUEL FILTERS EVERY OTHER YEAR. MORE FREQUENT

CHANGES COULD OCCUR IF TESTING INDICATES THE NEED AS A REMEDIAL REPAIR. WE

RECOMMEND CHANGING COOLANT ONLY AS INDICATED BY INSPECTION AND TESTING AS A

REMEDIAL REPAIR.

A2. THE OIL AND FILTERS WILL BE CHANGED EVERY OTHER YEAR WHEN THE FLUIDS ARE

DRAWN FOR TESTING. SEE PARAGRAPH 2.4.2.1.1(19) AS PER THIS AMENDMENT PARAGRAPH 2.

3. REFERENCE COMBINED SYNOPSIS/SOLICITATION ATTACHMENT 1, PARAGRAPH 2.4.2.2.1 (32), DELETE IN ITS ENTIRETY.

CONTRACTOR QUESTION RECEIVED WITH THE GOVERNMENT'S RESPONSE:

Q3. SECTION 2.4.2.2.1 MENTIONS UNDER ITEM (32) INSULATION TESTING. MY NOTES

INDICATED THAT A DECISION WAS MADE AT THE WALK THRU FOR THE CURRENT CONTRACT

THAT THIS WOULD ONLY OCCUR IF OTHER FACTORS INDICATED THE NEED TO DO SO AND WAS

NOT TO OCCUR ON A ROUTINE TEST SCHEDULE. THE COSTS INVOLVED TO DO A PROPER

INSULATION TEST USING A MEGGER DID NOT JUSTIFY PERFORMING THE TEST GIVEN THE

ROBUST NATURE OF TODAY'S WINDINGS. TO BE DONE SAFELY ALL ELECTRONIC MUST BE

DISCONNECTED PRIOR TO PERFORMING THE TEST AS THE HIGH VOLTAGE WOULD DAMANGE

THOSE COMPONENTS.

A3. YES, INSULATION TESTING WILL NOT BE PERFORMED ON A ROUTINE SCHEDULE. SEE

PARAGRAPH 2.4.2.2.1 (32) AS PER THIS AMENDMENT PARAGRAPH 3.

4. ADDITIONAL CONTRACTOR QUESTIONS RECEIVED ARE RESTATED WITH THE GOVERNMENT'S

RESPONSE:

Q4. SINCE THE FISCAL YEARS ARE ACROSS ODD AND EVEN YEARS AND USING THE FIRST

AND SECOND YEAR AS AN EXAMPLE: 10/16 -9/17 AND 10/17-9/18, SHOULD OIL AND COOLANT TEST

BE IN FALL 2016; LOAD BANK TESTING IN APRIL 2017; FALL 2016 - NO OIL OR COOLANT TESTS;

SPRING 2018 - NO LOAD BANK TESTING?

A4. OIL AND COOLANT WAS TESTED IN SPRING OF 2016 AND WILL NOT BE DUE AGAIN

UNITL FY18 (OCTOBER 2017); LOAD BANK TESTING WILL BEGIN IN SPRING (APRIL) OF 2017 (FY

17), THEN AGAIN IN FY 19; NO OIL OR COOLANT TESTS WILL BE PERFORMED IN FALL 2016, JUST

NORMAL PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE; SPRING (APRIL) 2017 LOAD BANK TESTING WILL BE

PERFORMED.

W25G1V-16-R-0039

Q5. CONCERNING THE BATTERY MAINTENANCE, ARE CONDUCTANCE READINGS

ACCEPTABLE IN PLACE OF IMPENDANCE READINGS?

A5. NO, THE GOVERNMENT REQUIRES IMPEDANCE READINGS.

Q6. ARE REPLACEMENT BATTERIES BILLABLE TO TAD, OR DO WE HAVE TO PROVIDE

THEM UNDER THE CONTRACT?

A6. REPLACEMENT BATTERIES ARE BILLABLE TO THE GOVERNMENT.

Q7. THE UPS THAT ARE NOT IN SERVICE, DO WE NEED TO INCLUDE THEM IN THE

MAINTENANCE (EXAMPLE, UNIT 21, BLDG 73)?

A7. NO, THE UPS NOT IN SERVICE DO NOT NEED TO BE INCLUDED IN THE MAINTENANCE.

Q8. FOR THE LIEBERT/EMERSON UNITS, TO PRICE THE BATTERY SERVICE REQUESTED,

ARE THEY STILL FACTORY, PLEASE ADVISE. iF NOT, PLEASE IDENTIFY THE BATTERY TYPES, RUN

TIME, NUMBER OF CABINETS AND IF ANY MODIFICATIONS HAVE OCCURRED IN THE FIELD.

A8. THE UNITS THEMSELVES ARE STILL FACTORY AND BATTERY QUANTITIES ARE

LISTED IN THE SOW. THE BATTERIES HAVE BEEN KEPT UP TO DATE OVER THE YEARS. ALL

SYSTEMS ARE PRESENTLY FULLY OPERATIONAL.

Q9. FOR THE UNIT 21 LOCATED IN BLDG 73, 1ST FLOOR, EMERSON SERIES 610, SN:

CN0724629/LI-06720, SYSTEM NOT IN SERVICE: DOES THE GOVERNMENT STILL WANT THE SAME

SPECIFIED SERVICE PRICED FOR THIS UNIT? WHAT IS THE STATUS OF THE BATTERIES FOR THIS

UNIT, STORAGE ENVIRONMENT, MONTHLY CHARGING, ETC? WHAT SERVICE IS REQUIRED FOR

THE BATTERIES?

A9. NO SERVICE IS REQUIRED FOR THIS UNIT.

5. THE PROPOSAL DUE DATE OF 22 SEPTEMBER 2016 @ 1:00 PM REMAINS UNCHANGED.

6. ALL OTHER TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE SOLICITATION REMAIN THE SAME.
