(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 3:00 p.m. EST

Friday Business Hours: Every other Friday from 7:00 a.m. EST to 2:00 p.m. EST

Fridays will be staggered with every other Friday being a closed business day. The first Friday of 2023 to be closed is January 13, 2023.

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. In addition, contractor personnel shall appropriately identify themselves as contractor employees in telephone conversations and in formal and informal written correspondence, and when working in situations where their actions could be construed as official government acts.

2.3.4: Building 35-1, WV12810, Ekin Broach Grinder- This machine tool has a CO2 Fire Suppression system which is currently functional. However, it lacks a written procedure to perform functional tests of the system which is written in the English language. This system utilizes Ultraviolet Infrared Flame Detector(s), has 2-10 kg CO2 tanks, and has a protection volume of approximately 500- 700 cubic feet.

The contractor shall provide, in their solicitation, a line item for one of the following two alternatives as a solution to facilitate NFPA compliant testing, and connection to the Arsenal’s fire suppression network for this machine tool.

a. Develop and document, in the English language, a written test procedure for the current Kraft and Bauer System which will provide written instructions/procedures which will enable any qualified NYS Fire Protection Inspector to inspect the system bi-annually according to NFPA 12 requirements. If this alternative is selected, the vendor shall provide an electronic copy of the written test procedure to the requiring activity representative IAW CDRL 007.

This alternative is preferred over replacing the system as the system has been specifically designed by the Original Equipment Manufacturer and would avoid the need to reverse-engineer the currently installed system on the machine tool which utilizes Ultraviolet Infrared sensors for flame detection. Contractor would be required to contact OEM (Kraft and Bauer) for specific information regarding instructions for testing the system. If the contractor determines option (a) is the more feasible alternative for technical and safety reasons, the contractor shall install a discharge pressure switch on the current system and adjust quote accordingly.
