BIDDER INQUIRIES & ANSWERS SUBMITTED VIA ProjNet

6514791 Regarding Factor 2 – Past Performance. Would the Corps consider accepting a CCASS/CPARS evaluation in lieu of a PPQ? Many of our clients are not responsive to a request for a PPQ, if an evaluation has been made available.

Government Response. . Yes.

6514792 Regarding Factor 2 – Past Performance. Would the Corps consider accepting a recently completed PPQ for a prior solicitation in lieu of requesting the client to complete a new PPQ as provided in this RFP?

Government Response. . Yes.

6514793 Regarding Volume 2 Price & Pro Forma. Are Representations and Certifications required to be included in the price and pro forma volume?

Government Response. . Provision 52.204-7 applies to this solicitation. Accordingly, paragraph (d) of 52.204-8 applies which requires offerors to complete corresponding individual representations and certifications electronically through the System for Award Management (SAM). The Government will access the online representations and certifications of a prospective Offeror through SAM. Other representations included in Section 00 45 00 shall be completed and be include with the price and pro forma volume.

6520673 There are two (2) sets of drawings for each building posted on the Government website. For instance, for the 600 Person Barracks, there are files noted "Progress Submission", [ie: H.01.04_LEE_VOLUME 2_600 MAN BARRACKS (Progress Submission)], and very similar drawing sets noted with "21April2016", [ie:

H.01.04_Volume2600PersonBarracks_21April2016], both for the same building. The date in the title blocks for both sets is 30 March 2016. Some examples of the differences discovered are as follows:

1.) The "Progress Submission" set has civil drawings, the 21 April 2016 set does not have civil drawings.

2.) Drawing S-303 is not the same in each set of drawings, less details in the "Progress Submission" set. 3.)

Drawings A-202 through A-209 are not the same.

4.) Drawings A-321 and A-322, sections and details are not the same.

5.) There is a drawing A-323 in the "Progress Submission" set that is not in the 21 April 2016 set. 6.)

Drawing A-606 is not the same.

7.) Drawings F-102 through F-106 are not the same. 8.) Drawings I-100 and I-101 are not the same We did not go all the way through the MEP drawings in Volume 2 and there may be similar discrepancies.

This also occurs in Volumes 1, 3 and 4 of the drawings which may have similar discrepancies since there are duplicate sets of drawings for each of these. Please clarify which set of drawings the bidding contractors are to use and remove the duplicate sets from the Government website to prevent confusion and error in bidding.

Government Response. . Please see Amendment 0003 document "Amendment Details 3_20May2016". This document details what changes have been made to drawings/plans/specs. Amendment 0004, FAR clause 252.236-7001 details what contract drawings and specifications are applicable to this Solicitation.

6520679 The submission instructions state that both the Price and Technical proposals are to be submitted on a CD- ROM; given that we will not be getting pricing from the subs and vendors until closer to the bid date and time please advise if it will be acceptable to submit the CD for the Price Proposal with a blank Price Schedule and blank Subcontracting Plan, and that we be allowed to e-mail you the completed Price Schedule and Subcontracting Plan prior to the bid closing time or provide the CD in its entirety the following business day Government Response. . See Amendment 0004 for clarification

6520680 The submission instructions state that both the Price and Technical proposals are to be submitted in one (1) original and four (4) copies; please confirm that one (1) original and four (4) copies is required for the Price proposal as typically the requirement is just one (1) original and one (1) copy.

Government Response. . Only one copy of the Price and Pro Forma volume is required. See amendment 0004 for clarification

6523954

Regarding the Proposal Submission Requirement – 4.6.2: In addition to the hardcopy proposals, submit one (1), non- editable, searchable copy on CD-ROM". Given the nature of the bidding process, the minutes leading up to the deadline for the price proposal can be very hectic. The focus for the Offeror is on compiling a complete, accurate and competitive bid finalized and submitted. Submitting the Price CD at this point adds a level of complication that hinders the bid process. Would the Corps consider allowing the Price CD to be submitted within the next 24 hours, so that the CD contains complete and accurate information and doesn't detract from focus on the bid?

Government Response. . See amendment 0004 for clarification.

6524993 Please provide a list of the sections and drawings that changed with Amendments 1 & 2.

Government Response. . Amendment 0004, FAR clause 252.236-7001 details what contract drawings and specifications are applicable to this Solicitation.

6525063 Since the plans and specifications have been completely reissued and replaced in full, we respectfully request the proposal due date be extended as if this were the issued date of the RFP. We request a proposal due date not less than 16 May 2016.

Government Response. . Proposal due date has been extended to 12:00 Noon EST, 13June2016

6525066 Due to the complexity and size of this project and the reissuance of the plans and specifications, please consider extending the proposal due date to 6/30/2016.

Government Response. . Proposal due date has been extended to 12:00 Noon EST, 13June2016

6525326 Sheet A-002 of the 600 Man Barracks includes a detail for wall type S6A. This detail indicates batt insulation, but the notation does not state that it requires batt insulation as noted on other similar details.

Please clarify whether or not this wall type requires batt insulation - thermal, acoustical, etc.

Government Response. . On sheet A-002, wall type S6A shall read as follows:

6" Metal studs 16" o.c. with acoustic batt insulation and one layer of 5/8" GWB each side. The drawing will be updated as part of Amendment 4.

6525330 Sheet A-002 of the 600 Man Barracks includes details for wall types S6B1/2 S6G1/2. These details indicate drywall applied to both sides, but the notation states "5/8" Type X GWB Room Side". Please clarify whether or not this wall type requires 5/8" Type X GWB on one side, two sides, or perhaps Type X GWB on the Room Side and regular 5/8" GWB on the other.

Government Response. . Wall type S6 shall have 5/8" GWB each side. Wall type S6A shall have 5/8" GWB each side.

Wall type S6B1/2 shall have 5/8" Type GWB each side. Wall type S6G1/2 shall have 5/8" Type GWB each side.

A drawing will be provided in Amendment 4 showing these changes.

6525355 On S-105, please reference the Northern (First Floor Roof) portion of Area B. Although Details 7A/A-318 and 5A/A-315 depict a portion of the exterior walls for this area, the structural information is not clearly identified. Please provide or identify roof joist bearing details at the exterior load bearing walls of Area B First Floor Roof.

Government Response. . For joist bearing sections in the low roof area to the north of the multistory portions see sections 4, 4A/S305

6525372 In Detail 7A/A-318 there appears to be a horizontal tube steel member supporting a brick ledger angle. We have been unable to locate this tube steel in the structural framing plans. Please provide or identify the tube steel and brick ledger detail, as well as the tube steel bearing and connection details.

Government Response. . Brick ledger and box beam are not needed for single story.

Amendment 4 will be issued to include these changes.

6526633 Due to the misdirection and confusion with having two sets of drawings issued with the original solicitation, which have now been replaced by drawings issued in Amendment No. 1, and with the issuance of replacement specifications in Amendment No. 2, we respectfully request that the bid date be extended by at least two weeks since contractors and subcontractors are essentially starting all over from the beginning. We also request that the pre-bid site visit be extended two weeks in anticipation of the building demolition drawings being issued on or about 20 May 2016 in order to allow time for review before the site visit, especially considering this is a tentative date which could slip. Your favorable considerations will be greatly appreciated and will most assuredly aid in better pricing for this logistically challenging project.

Government Response. . Proposal due date has been extended to 12:00 Noon EST, 13June2016. On

6527274 Paragraph 1.3.2 of this Section entitled LEED says ..."The Contractor is required to provide documentation that meets the LEED Energy & Atmosphere (EA) Prerequisite 1, Fundamental Commissioning and EA Credit 3, Enhanced Commissioning. The Contractor's Commissioning Firm/Specialist shall prepare the documents required for EA credit 3."

Since this project is already designed, and since project was not design-build, Contractors' cannot provide Enhanced Commissioning. Contractors' can only provide Fundamental Commissioning at this point in project development. If Enhanced Commissioning is needed, is the Owner providing the Commissioning Agent directly? Please clarify what is required for Commissioning for this project.

Government Response. . The government performed the required Cx reviews during design for this credit and will continue to be part of the Cx efforts through construction. This credit is obtainable.

6527276 Paragraph 1.1 of this section in both the Barracks and DEFAC specifications says ..."Compensation for removal of contaminated soil and pumpable liquids will be paid as a unit cost." We see no provision for unit prices on the Bid Form. Please clarify this requirement or issue a revised Bid Form incorporating an item for this work.

Government Response. . Amendment will be provided to address. Text will be changed similar to the following. Refer to Amendment 3 for actual language.

Change: "Compensation for removal of contaminated soil and pumpable liquids will be paid as a unit cost."

To: "Compensation for removal of contaminated soil and pumpable liquids will be determined by modification to the contract in accordance with the Changes clause in the contract."

6527279 Paragraph 1.1.2.1 of this section in both the Barracks and DEFAC specifications says ..."Compensation for excavation and onsite transportation of contaminated material will be paid as a unit cost." We see no provision for unit prices on the Bid Form. Please clarify this requirement or issue a revised Bid Form incorporating an item for this work.

Government Response. . Amendment will be provided to address. Text will be changed similar to the following. Refer to Amendment 3 for actual language.

Change: "Compensation for excavation and onsite transportation of contaminated material will be paid as a unit cost."

To: "Compensation for excavation and onsite transportation of contaminated material will be determined by modification to the contract in accordance with the Changes clause in the contract."

6527281 Paragraph 1.2 of this section in the Barracks specifications says ..."Geotextile installed and accepted will be paid for at the respective contract unit price in the bidding schedule." We see no provision for unit prices on the Bid Form. Please clarify this requirement or issue a revised Bid Form incorporating an item for this work.

Government Response. . Amendment will be provided to address. Text will be changed similar to the following. Refer to Amendment 3 for actual language.

Change: "Geotextile installed and accepted will be paid for at the respective contract unit price in the bidding schedule."

To: "Geotextile installed and accepted will be compensated as determined by modification to the contract in accordance with the Changes clause in the contract."

6527283 The General Notes on the "F" series of drawings showing the FF&E package says ..."Furniture is not in Contract. Furniture is shown for information only. Furniture will be procured in the FF&E package under separate cover." Please confirm that "under separate cover" should be "under separate contract" and is not the responsibility of the Contractor. Also, please confirm that the Contractor is not to provide an alternate price for the Barracks FF&E similarly as for the DEFAC since no specifications or cut-sheet information was provided, and no item was included on the Bid Form.

Government Response. . Change "under separate cover" to "under separate contract". This work is not a part of this contract. It is confirmed that a separate price is not required for the Barracks FF&E package.

Amendment 5 will be provided to show this change.

6527287 We understand the project is to attain LEED Silver per Section 01 11 00, Part 3 Execution, but we are unable to locate a LEED Checklist anywhere in the RFP documents. Please provide the LEED Checklist for this project.

Government Response. . This was provided as part of Amendment 3.

6527289 Paragraph 1.4.3 (a) indicates a Third Party Certification (TPC) Checklist is to be included at the end of Section 01 33 29 as Attachment 2. We are unable to find Attachment 2 or a TPC Checklist. Is the TPC Checklist the same thing as the LEED Checklist requested in part A) above? Please clarify and provide the appropriate Checklists.

Government Response. . This has now been included and clarified in amendment 3

6528470 Barracks Spec section 013329 1.4 a. refers to Attachment 1, HPSB checklist. Please provide this attachment.

Government Response. . This has now been included in amendment 3.

6528471 Specification 26 51 00 2.7 states that "the lighting control system shall be based on a digital addressable ballast system." The spec goes on to describe a computer software based lighting control system with class 2 wiring used "to communicate between fixtures, dimmers, switches, wall stations and lighting control system." The system is described as being able (in 2.7.1) to "make changes in sensor and fixture control...by software...." Section 2.7.6 includes a statement that "lighting fixtures and zones shall be done via the lighting control software."

Electrical drawings do not appear to provide design that matches this description from the specifications.

Specifically:

The lighting fixture schedule on EL501 and associated cut sheets on EL502 and EL503 do not indicate that the light fixtures should be provided with "digitally addressable ballasts" as would be required by the specifications.

The drawings do not include any information regarding the required computer station head end or class 2 wiring noted in the specifications.

This system would appear to be building-wide (not room specific) such that every device, sensor, or light fixture could be individually addressed and controlled via the program set in the software. Additionally, in the recent past we have installed a system as described in the specifications on a Federal facility (Marine Corps) and were unable to achieve approval for the software that the system operates on. That system was required to remain stand-alone -unconnected to the building (base) LAN.

Is the intent of this project to have a lighting control system with digital addressable ballasts and building-wide control for the barracks buildings as noted in the specifications?

Government Response. . For lighting control system, follow sheet EL701 Lighting Control Riser for both barracks. Lighting control system is stand alone; does not require building-wide control. The specs and the drawings do not indicate a computer station. A computer station is not required. Light fixtures shall utilize digital ballasts and drivers in order to be compatible with the lighting control system.

6528473

Drawing EL-701 includes a detail for "Stand Alone Wireless Digital Dimming, Sensors, and Controls Typical". This wiring diagram depicts room-specific (non-networked) lighting control arrangement utilizing a control module with RF receiver which switches lighting fixtures, HVAC loads, and plug loads based on signals received from battery powered (wireless), RF devices. This diagram depicts digital loop wiring from the controller to the fixtures and drivers (which would require digitally addressable fixtures as noted in the above) but does not depict any building-wide communication/control from a software based system.

Questions:

Is the intent to utilize RF frequency from a head-end system of software to communicate to local "stand alone" room controllers (in lieu of the class 2 wiring noted above)?

The Electrical Legend on E-001 describes the symbols for "S", "SB", "Sd", "(OS)" and [OS]" as "Low Voltage ..." but the detail on EL-701 would seem to indicate that these are wireless, battery powered switches and sensors instead of low voltage (there are no symbol on the Legend corresponding to the wireless sensors and devices). Is this correct?

The Electrical Legend indicates that the symbol "So" is a line voltage device. As such it would not be wireless or communicate with the lighting controls (either local or network). Please verify that those lighting fixtures connected to those devices would not require digital addressed ballasts (assuming they are required for the balance of the building).

What is the purpose of the "HVAC Integration Module"? No reference can be found in the HVAC controls diagrams to this integration.

What quantity of "Wireless plug in appliance modules" are required? The Legend on E-001 identifies some office receptacles as "Automatic Duplex Receptacles". Is the intent that these plug in modules be provided at those locations?

Government Response. . a. Is the intent to utilize RF frequency from a head-end system of software to communicate to local "stand alone" room controllers (in lieu of the class 2 wiring noted above)?

Answer: Yes, the intent is to utilize RF frequency for local stand alone controls. There is no building-wide control.

The Electrical Legend on E-001 describes the symbols for "S", "SB", "Sd", "(OS)" and [OS]" as "Low Voltage ..." but the detail on EL-701 would seem to indicate that these are wireless, battery powered switches and sensors instead of low voltage (there are no symbol on the Legend corresponding to the wireless sensors and devices). Is this correct?

Answer: These switches and sensors should be wireless, not low-voltage wiring. Follow sheet EL701.

The Electrical Legend indicates that the symbol "So" is a line voltage device. As such it would not be wireless or communicate with the lighting controls (either local or network). Please verify that those lighting fixtures connected to those devices would not require digital addressed ballasts (assuming they are required for the balance of the building).

Answer: This switch should be wireless, not line-voltage wiring. Follow sheet EL701. Fixtures should use digital ballast.

What is the purpose of the "HVAC Integration Module"? No reference can be found in the HVAC controls diagrams to this integration.

Answer: This control module should have a single contact closure output with normally open and normally closed dry maintained contacts suitable for connection to third party equipment (e.g. building management system, HVAC system, etc.)

e. What quantity of "Wireless plug in appliance modules" are required? The Legend on E-001 identifies some office receptacles as "Automatic Duplex Receptacles". Is the intent that these plug in modules be provided at those locations?

Answer: The quantity is zero. Please ignore the wireless plug in appliance module on sheet EL701. The wireless plug in appliance module is separate and unrelated to the automatic duplex receptacles

Architectural – Ref: 600 Man Barracks drawing A-507: This sheet indicates an add-on to an existing cooling tower slab and screen wall. However, the site drawings seem to show this belongs with the 300 Man Barracks, especially since it includes a cage for ATFP and the existing cooling tower slab is within the 75 ft setback. Please clarify.

Government Response. . The site plan is correct, the add-on is intended for the 300 man barrack and not the 600 man barrack. Both the 600 and 300 man barrack construction documents will be altered to reflect the change. This will be reflected in Amendment 4.

6529016

Please confirm that pricing for all 3 parking lots belongs with CLIN 0004.

6529021

Architectural – Ref: 600 Man Barracks drawing A-112: There appears to be a concrete pad shown at the front entrance canopy, but no other information. Also, if you cross reference the site drawings, there appears to be other pads indicated at the back of Area "D" which are not shown or detailed anywhere.

Government Response. . The information regarding the concrete pad will be on the Overall Floor Plan on Sheet A- 101 and provided in Amendment 4. The pad will offset 4'-9" away from the column lines of the canopy, so leading away from the building and to the left and right side of the columns.

6529023

Structural – Ref: 600 Man Barracks drawing S-103: Is the intent of the mechanical support frame shown to be used on the Closed Circuit Cooler listed on the mechanical drawings? If so, then are we to assume it is typical for the Man barracks and the DFAC?

Government Response. . Yes, and the detail is intended to be typical.

6529343

On drawings CP-102 and CP-103 in Volume 1, the L.E.B pads are denoted as being concrete paving, but per drawings A-551 in Volumes 2 and 3, they are masonry buildings with concrete footing and slabs-on-grade. Please confirm concrete paving is not the correct support/foundation for these L.E.B.'s. Also, please note the reinforcing steel is not sized in the footings except for the vertical rebar dowels into the CMU. Please provide this information.

Government Response. . Concrete paving is not the correct support/foundation for these L.E.B.'s.

Although the floor finish within the L.E.B.'s and the concrete pavement that is butted up against the building, are both made up of the same material, concrete. In Volume 1, we are showing only an outline of the supporting building, so it can be located on the site. The details on Sheet A-551 provided in Amendment 4 will provide the correct foundation for this supporting building. The horizontal rebar in the footing will be #5 Reinforcement @ 16" OC and the longitudinal bars should be "#5 CONT".

6529344

Details in the upper left hand corner of drawing A-507, Volume 2, 600 PN Barracks, Cooling Tower Screen Wall Plan, refer to "existing screen wall." Where is this existing Cooling Tower Screen Wall that the Contractor is to tie into?

Government Response. . The existing Cooling Tower Screen Wall is not associated with the 600 man barrack. It is associated with the 300 man barrack. Both the 600 and 300 man barrack, set of construction documents will be updated with Amendment 4.

6529345 Drawing A-504, Volume 2, 600 PN Barracks; Drawing A-502, Volume 3, 300 PN Barracks; Drawing A-511, Volume 4, DEFAC; all these drawings show a Monument Sign. We are unable to find where these monument signs are located.

6529350 Please confirm that the new parking lot on drawings CS101, CG101 and CU101 at the corner of Byrd Ave and 16th St. (south of DEFAC) is in the Base Bid and not the DEFAC Option.

Government Response. . Confirmed

6529351 The keynotes on Drawings CS101 and CS102 refer to chiller pad as being on A-503. The reference to drawing A- 503 is incorrect as we cannot find any such details on any A-503 drawings in any volume set. We are unable to find details of the chiller pads on any drawings. Please provide details of the chiller pads.

Government Response. . A-507 is the correct sheet location for the Cooling Tower, instead of A-503.

Although the plan, sections and elevations that are currently shown on A-507 are intended for the 300 man barrack, Section 2/A-507 shows how each Cooling Tower Screen wall will look like. The plan be updated in Amendment 4.

Government Response. . The Project site is the scope of all work awarded under this solicitation. If the Government awards one or more buildings under this contract, at a minimum, one SSHO is required on site at all times while work is being performed.

6533575 SECTION 01 35 26.00 50 para 1.5.1.1 state "Site Safety and Health Officer (SSHO) The Contractor Quality Control (QC) person cannot be the SSHO on this project, even though the QC has safety inspection responsibilities as part of the QC duties." This clause does not preclude the SSHO from having other duties – only precludes them serving as the QC. Please confirm if these individuals can perform the role of a SSHO in addition to other duties or if they are required to have no other duties assigned than site safety and health.

Government Response. . The designated SSHO (and Alternate SSHO) shall have no other duties assigned other than that of site safety and health.

It is understood that this individual is required full time during the demo phase when demo work is being performed- could this individual also then serve as the SSHO during the demo phase? Or are both individuals required during this phase?

Government Response. . A CIH could serve to fulfill both designated roles (safety and occupational health management) during the demolition phase of the project, however, to serve in the designated role of project SSHO, the individual would need to demonstrate that he meets all of the specific qualifications, training, and experience requirements established for a project SSHO as indicated in Section 01.A.17 (a-i).

6533587 Specification section 088100, 2.2.1, a calls for the exterior light of the IGU to be laminated along with the interior light of glass to be laminated. The typical make up for an IGU that meets ATFP criteria is a 1/4" non-laminated exterior light - 1/2" air - 1/4" laminated interior light with the appropriate PVB to meet the blast load. Having the exterior and interior lights both laminated adds more load to the frame and fasteners as well as cost to the project.

Is it acceptable to use a non-laminated exterior light and laminated interior light to make up the IGU for this project?

Government Response. . Please follow what is stated within the spec.
