RFIS

1) Note 1 on drawings E1 and E2 indicates to provide data\power boxes suppling cubicles quantity bases on cubicle layout, please provide cubicle layout and requirements for data and power.

A: Currently the exact cubicles and layout is not known. Contractor will be provided the drawings for layout when received. As noted on drawings, (BOX LOCATED ABOVE

CEILING). QUANTITY AND LOCATIONS BASED ON CUBICLE LAYOUT FROM

COMPANY (SUBJECT TO CHANGE). Only required to bid to these locations. Any other additional locations will be modified as needed, for supplemental work within the original scope of work.

2) Drawing A2 shows a wall being removed and replaced but nothing is shown on the electrical drawing E2 are there any electrical requirements?

A: State law requires electrical outlets every 6ft. This scope and requirement will follow same suite.

3) At the project walk thru it was said that all outlets were to be replaced this is not shown on the contract drawings but indicated in the spec section3.1.10B and 3.1.10C says contractor is responsible for quantity are there as-built drawing available to review or can we set up another opportunity for visit the site?

A: No alternate site visits will be provided. The contractor is responsible for replacing about 65 outlets.

4) There are several walls being removed shown on drawings but there are no electrical requirement shown for removal or reinstallation of fire alarm horn strobes as well as the mass notification system please provide direction and quantities.

A: All electrical removed from the walls shall be brought back to the source. All horns and strobes shall be reinstalled in the ceiling. Quantity (may have slight variance in count) is:

Outlets 65 Switches 22 Fire Alarm Strobe 8 Strobe/Horn Combo 12

5) Kitchenette details on drawing A3 depicts power outlets but there are none shown on the electrical drawings are these outlets required and if so please provide direction.

A: Yes outlets are required. Utilize these drawings to estimate the requirement of the outlets required (as depicted on drawings).

6) Drawing A8 shows new reflected ceiling layout for lighting it was mentioned at the onsite visit all lights were to be removed, stored and reinstalled but it was noticed that all lights were not operational and that the fixtures in rooms 200 and 201 were supported above the dropped ceiling to the deck above is it the intent to install fixtures in the same manor or should fixtures be modified for below grid installation?

A: Install in the same manner as prior.

7) I cannot find a spec for the lighting fixtures on this project. Only for the nano tubes. Is there one?

A: Contractors are to reuse existing lighting. There is no requirement to install new.

8) Please provide a series of pictures showing the general work areas so that we can forward to potential subcontractors.

A: Please see pictures on BETA SAM file

9) Will the elevator be available to us for use? Any restrictions?

A: The contractor will have access to the elevator, no restrictions, unless required for manufacturing.

10) Who removes the furniture, shelving, filing cabinets, items hung on the walls etc?

A: Government is responsible for removals of all un-permanent equipment or furniture.

11) Please provide abatement report.

A: The contractor that is low will be allowed to access any and all surveys of potential asbestos or remediated inventory in the areas worked. This will be once in contract, and an agreement that the notification or opportunity to review has been staffed to the company will be required prior to work start. Currently, only flooring in building 35 metrology is deemed asbestos (see SoW #

6OD006)

12) If Asbestos is found above the ceiling will that require a change order?

A: Any unforeseen conditions will be evaluated and addressed through FAR 52.236-2, “Differing Site Conditions”

13) The floor and adhesive in building 35 / room 209 and surrounding corridor appeared to be wood floor. Striping of asbestos adhesive with solvent can leak through and be problematic for work spaces below. How will the arsenal address this issue if it becomes a problem?

A: Concrete flooring is believed to below the wood subfloor. However, it will be the contractor’s responsibility to mitigate this issue through resealing of concrete.

14) Who is the fire alarm contractor and what the extent of testing required is.

A: The fire alarm contractor can be any qualified individual that is able to work on Simplex Grinnell (Johnson Controls) proprietary product. The testing is that all alarm systems shall be in same working order as current conditions.

15) To what extent is the preparation of existing painting to be restored prior to finish painting? Preparation of existing flaking paint

A: Scrape in a means that does not create dust. Any loose paint will be removed from the walls or surfaces. When complete, the surface shall be of smooth condition, and free of defect.

16) Evidence of effervescence is seen around many window jambs and frames. How is this to be quantified and treated?

A: Removal of any efflorescence will be the contractor’s requirement, as per surface preparation.

This is minimal, and can be treated per commercial chemicals, or other means and methods. If, in fact, the requirement is unquantified or found outside of what was within plain view, a modification may be warranted under the FAR 52.236-2 clause.

17) Are the window grids to be painted? If so is repairing loose glazing required?

A: Yes, window grids to be painted. No loose glazing will be required to be repaired.

18) Painting of heat radiator covers. Multiple layers of paint has chips, dents etc. How are these to be treated?

A: Paint the covers as currently exist. The prior dents are not of concern to this project.

19) Is door and window hardware to be stripped to bare metal and recoated?

A: No.

20) In general the condition of the existing surfaces, walls, trim, windows, radiator covers etc. is old and in poor condition. Is the arsenals objective to strip existing paint to bare product and repaint as if new?

A: No. If the paint does not adhere to surfaces after provision of proper industry standard surface preparation, this will be addressed as needed with the Contracting Officer’s Representative.

21) There are 5 temperature sensors shown as being removed and reinstalled on the electrical drawing E1. However, they do not appear to be reinstalled at the same locations they were removed from. Additionally, if these are thermostats, this would not typically fall under the EC scope of work. If the EC is to do this work, what type of cable is required to extend to the new locations? Can this cable be spliced and extended or does a new cable need to be run and from where?

A: Cables and wiring needs to be in compliance with the product manufacturer of the sensor, and tied into the existing Johnson Controls Metasys Building System (if disconnected). This is something that is often completed by contractors during renovations at the Watervliet Arsenal.

The current controllers are mainly Johnson Controls TE-68NT-0N00S.

22) Regarding the new split ductless AC unit and the electrical contractors’ responsibilities for this unit. This unit is not shown on the electrical drawings. I assume a new circuit will be needed to supply this unit. How far is the electrical panel that will be supplying this unit, is there an available breaker in this panel? Is the electrical contractor expected to provide any disconnects, or will they be provided with the unit? Also, mechanical drawing M1 says the contractor is to supply fire alarm tie ins for this unit. Does this fall under the EC or MC scope? Additionally, what is the goal of tying into the fire alarm? According to the part numbers listed for this unit, it is a mini ductless, so there wouldn’t be any duct detectors. Is this just a monitor module?

A: No fire alarm tie-in required for a 3 ton HVAC. There should be a panel within 40’. Questions regarding the scope and who is required to do the work is not a division of duties the Government will direct or clarify.

23) Will there be any additional electrical specifications issued? The only electrical spec. in the bid package is for low voltage power conductors and cables. It appears we would need fire alarm, data, and device specs going off of the drawings. Additionally, we would need circuit breaker specs if any new breakers are required for any new circuits as well as a spec for disconnects if they are required for the ductless AC unit.

A: Contractor is responsible for Government Submittals. This is to include breaker specs that the contractor will decide upon after seeing the panel and requirements.

24) Drawings A7 from the Metrology Office drawing set and drawing A8 from the ODP offices set indicate new smoke detectors to be tied into the existing system. I believe it was mentioned during the site visit that these smoke detectors are already existing. Please clarify if there are any new smoke detectors to be provided as well as a specification if new devices are required.

A: The Contractor is to reuse the currently installed detectors. No new will be installed.

25) Drawing E1 from the OD-P Offices building 35 drawing set show new data outlets. Please provide a specification for the outlets and cabling required as well as the location of the data room where these devices will be tying in. Also, could the furniture layout drawings from Accent NY be provided to us as well?

A: The furniture layouts are not provided currently. Citing Accent NY is in error, and should be omitted, as contractor for furniture is unknown. The contractor shall use T568B for terminations.

Copper outlets/connectors shall be TIA/EIA CAT6 for all projects. All connectors shall be 8-pin/8-position insulation displacement terminations wired as per T568A (default configuration) or T568B (if required to maintain system configuration uniformity, security or other user-specified reasons). Category 5-, CAT5e-, and CAT3-rated connectors shall not be used in new construction or in rehabilitation projects. The copper outlet/connector and plugs shall be un-keyed unless (1) the user requires a keyed outlet/connector and plugs to maintain system uniformity, security, or (2) there are other user-specified reasons.

26) Drawing D1 shows 3 temperature sensors being removed but drawing E1 shows 5 sensors being re installed who will be responsible to provide the additional sensors required? Please provide electrical requirements for the wiring of these devices as well as a model number to provide additional sensors if it falls under the electrical portion of the scope.

A: All new sensors will be required to be supplied by the contractor. Installation required will be tied into Metasys system, as outlined in response to Question 22. Above.

• Sheet D1 does not indicate demolition / removal / or otherwise of an HVAC system.

• Sheet A8 shows supply and return diffusers in the “new space configuration.

o Are we to use the existing diffusers? …or are we to purchase new diffusers?

o What are we connecting to? .. is there an existing duct system / flex connectors?

o Or …because the SOW does not mention HVAC system do we ignore the HVAC on A8.?

A. Save and re-use the diffusers

(e) JOB SITE AVAILABILITY:

The work site will be available for performance during normal business hours:

Monday through Thursday Business Hours: 7:00 a.m. EST to 4:00 p.m. EST

Friday Business Hours: Every other Friday from 7:00 a.m. EST to 3:00 p.m. EST

Fridays will be staggered with every other Friday being a closed business day. The first Friday of 2020 to be closed is January 3, 2020.

Based on the above, service contractors should call contract/purchase order administrator in advance if service is scheduled for a Friday to determine if the Arsenal will be open for business.

When a federal holiday is normally observed on Friday, the Arsenal may be closed on the preceding Thursday. In this case, contact the contract/purchase order administrator in advance if scheduling service to determine if the Arsenal will be open for business.

Work at other than the above hours won’t be allowed unless the contractor makes an application at least 48 hours in advance and gets written contracting officer approval. No guarantee is made that the job site will be made available other than as stated above.

(f) CONTROL OF FOREIGN VISITORS TO WATERVLIET ARSENAL:

Offerors are advised that any employee or representative of their company who is not a U.S. citizen, (or is representing a foreign company) and is a U.S. citizen), planning on visiting the Watervliet Arsenal for the purpose of attending: bid conferences, bid openings, site visits, engineering services, or any other visit related to this solicitation will be escorted at all times by an arsenal representative while on the installation grounds.

Therefore, offerors must notify the Contracting Officer in advance (a minimum of two [2] weeks) of any proposed visit by a non-U.S. citizen or U.S. citizen representing a foreign firm, to assure proper clearance for entry into the arsenal. Failure to comply, or disclose a foreign national visitor, may subject the Contractor to the penalties set forth in 18 U.S.C.A. Section 1001, Chapter 14.

Due to manpower constraints, Watervliet Arsenal is often unable to provide escort services during contract performance. Therefore, if the resulting contract requires performance on Watervliet Arsenal property, employees, individuals or subcontractors representing the successful offeror who are not U.S. citizens may not, depending on staffing levels and the availability of escorts, be allowed access to the Arsenal for purpose of contract performance.

Be further advised that the inability of the Arsenal to provide escorts resulting in denial of access to Watervliet Arsenal of the aforementioned personnel will not be considered an excusable delay to contract performance as defined in the contract clause “Default” contained in the contract. Therefore, offerors should consider the above contingencies during offer preparation.

(h) CONTRACTOR IDENTIFICATION:

Contractor employees shall identify themselves as contractor personnel by introducing themselves or being introduced as contractor personnel and displaying distinguishing badges or other visible identification for meetings with Government personnel.
