About this file
This is a Questions and Answers document for federal contract solicitation W50S9B-26-Q-0004 addressing vendor inquiries regarding an electrical installation and lighting retrofit project.
The project involves installation of two new 20-ampere circuits and replacement of lighting fixtures with LED units. Vendors must obtain electrical permits through Henrico County and coordinate inspections with the Government owner, who must be present during all county inspections. Blank panel space is confirmed as available, eliminating the need for panel modifications in pricing. Work may be scheduled between 0700–1600 hours Monday through Friday, with flexibility for times outside these hours if required. Existing circuit homeruns for replacement lighting will be reused; however, if vendors discover hazardous conditions or deficient wiring, work must stop and the owner must be notified for resolution via Change Order at no cost to the Government. For LED fixtures, commercially available products meeting or exceeding specifications in Section 3.1 and Attachment 5.4 are acceptable only if cut sheets demonstrate equivalence to performance specifications; the Government's Federal Energy Work group will review all proposed fixtures before contract award. Required closeout documentation includes an updated panel schedule, product submittals, cut sheets, warranty information, and disposal documentation. A sign-in sheet from the scheduled site visit will be posted on SAM.gov for subcontractors seeking general contractor contacts. No additional site visits beyond the June 25 scheduled visit will be provided.

Questions and Answers W50S9B-26-Q-0004
1. Is the contractor required to obtain an electrical permit and inspection from the local Authority Having Jurisdiction, or will all inspections and final acceptance be performed by the Government?
ANSWER: Yes. Vendor will obtain a permit through typical Henrico County requirements. Henrico County will provide inspections – note that - Owner must be notified prior to conducting County Inspections on site as we must be present during this activity.
2. For the two new 20A circuits, should the contractor assume adequate breaker spaces are available in the existing panel, or should pricing include panel modifications if required?
ANSWER: Yes - blank panel space is available. New or modified circuits shall be labeled prior to close out per notes in Section 2.1, paragraph 1 of the SOW.
3. Will the Government provide uninterrupted access to all work areas during normal work hours (0800–1530), or should the contractor anticipate phased access or scheduling restrictions?
ANSWER: Yes. Vendor may submit work schedule between the hours of 0700-1600 (M-F). We will work with you on times proposed outside of these hours if required.
4. Are existing circuit homeruns for the replacement lighting intended to be reused, or should the contractor include replacement of branch circuit wiring if deficiencies are discovered?
ANSWER: Yes. We expect to maintain existing circuits for all lights. Should Vendor discover a hazardous condition, deficient wiring or other limitation, Vendor shall stop work to notify Owner. We will work with you to resolve the condition via a Change Order and this scope is not required to be priced in your quote.
5. For the new LED fixtures, is it acceptable to provide commercially available fixtures that meet or exceed the minimum specifications listed in Attachment 5.4, or is the Government expecting fixtures from a preferred manufacturer?
ANSWER: Yes. We can accept this only if selection cut sheets clearly show that all attributes are equal to our performance specs noted in Section 3.1 & Attachment
5.4. Our Federal Energy Work group will review all proposed fixtures to confirm that your products are comparable to the requirements and this must occur prior to issuing a Contract Award.
6. Aside from updating the panel schedule and providing product submittals, cut sheets, warranty information, and disposal documentation, are there any additional closeout documents required for project completion?
ANSWER: No.
7. I'm interested in bidding on this project as a subcontractor. Do you have a list of general contractors I can reach out to, or if not, do you know who I could contact regarding this project?
ANSWER: We have a sign-in sheet that will be posted on SAM.gov.
8. Unfortunately, we were unable to attend the scheduled site visit on June 25. Would it be possible to arrange an additional site visit on Wednesday July1?
