SUMMARY OF CHANGES

The following have been added by full text:

AMENDMENT 0003

The purpose of this amendment is to:

1. Incorporate the ProNet inquiries and answers into the solicitation, and

2. Incorporate revised specifications

All other terms and conditions remain unchanged

NOTICE TO OFFERORS

1. INCORPORATE THE PROJNET INQUIRIES AND ANSWERS INTO THE SOLICITATION

Bid Inquiry 8918484 Two methods of teaming are outlined in this section, Teaming Agreement and Joint Venture. The requirements for both are that the "offeror is strongly encouraged to submit relevant project experience for projects completed by the Offeror as the proposed team". In the case of the Joint Venture, if the members do not have shared corporate experience, projects may be submitted for constitute members. However, under Contractor Team Arrangements, it is stated that subcontractor experience shall not be used to meet the requirements of this factor. Contractor Team Arrangements would typically involve a minimum of 2 firms, one as the prime and one as a subcontractor. As written, the teaming partner as the subcontractor could not provide project experience to meet the requirements of this factor, while also as written, constituent members of a Joint Venture could. Please clarify what the definition of "Subcontractor experience" is as it relates to the requirements of this Tab. Can both parties of a Teaming Agreement submit experience to meet the requirements of this factor?

Government Response. If a firm is submitting their offer as a Joint Venture entity, the project submission should be from the joint venture first, if no joint venture corporate experience exists, then experience from each of the parties is acceptable.

If a firm is submitting their offer under a team arrangement than the project submission should be from the team arrangement offeror first. If no team arrangement experience exists, then experience from each party is acceptable.

Bid Inquiry 8918490 The 4th paragraph reads "If the Offeror is comprised of more than one member via a teaming agreement, joint venture (JV) agreement, or other appropriate instrument, relevant project performance should be submitted for projects completed by the Offeror as the proposed collective", which implies the experience of any member of an Offeror's team may be submitted, which appears to conflict with the requirement stated above for Tab C Factor 2.

Please clarify.

Government Response. If signed Teaming Arrangement is submitted, Past Performance by either firm can be reviewed for Factor 3. If the Prime mentions in their submission that they will use a specific Sub Contractor to complete a portion of the work required by the solicitation, and no formal Teaming Agreement is provided, then the proposed Sub Contractor's past performance may not be submitted to satisfy the requirements of Factor 3 Past Performance.

Bid Inquiry 8922183 Bid item 0001A for the Seed Project states this item excludes bid items 0002. Bid items 0002A, B and C include the Project Manager (PM), Superintendent (SUP) and Quality Control Manager (QCM). Please confirm the personnel listed in bid item 0002 will be paid at the hourly rate in addition to the lump price bid for the Seed Project (Item 0001).

Government Response. Lines 0002 & 0003 are not intended to monetarily supplement the bid price you are looking for in Line 0001. The Line Item 0001 (A&B), Seed Project should include all PM, SUP, QCM and other labor, equipment, material costs required to complete the Seed Project, independent of all other bid lines.

Bid Inquiry 8922186 Bid Item 0003 is for milling and overlaying asphalt paving and disposing of prescreened material. Please confirm bid item 0003 does not include the PM, SUP or QCM shown in bid item 0002 and that the Contractor will be paid at the hourly unit price for these employees.

Government Response. The Items 0003A, B and C, is independent of bid items 0002A, B and C. The PM, SUP or QCM along with project overhead, would be considered separate cost items excluded from Items 0003A, B and C.

Bid Inquiry 8922189 What is the minimum asphalt paving area we should assume per mobilization for the bid item 0003A and B?

Government Response. 18,000SF and 300TONS respectively

Bid Inquiry 8922190 What is the minimum prescreened material disposal volume we should assume per mobilization for bid item 0003C?

Government Response. 5,000 CY

Bid Inquiry 8922193 Please clarify the requirement for disposing of the prescreened material (bid item 0003C):

•Is the material stockpiled in one location or several locations?

•Where on site is this material located?

•Is this material readily accessible next to a roadway?

•What type of material is in the stockpile (topsoil, soil, stone, unsuitable, etc.)?

•How will we be paid for the incidental work to dispose of the prescreened material if required such as escorts, erosion control, grading, restoration, street sweeping, seeding, etc.?

Government Response. Clarification of the requirement for disposing of the prescreened material (bid item 0003C):

•Is the material stockpiled in one location or several locations? Usually the material is stockpiled in one area of the spoils yard. However, sometimes the piles could be several in the spoils yard. The spoils yard is not a large area and equipment can easily canvass the entire yard area in less than a minute.

•Where on site is this material located? ANC operations will stockpile the screened material near the location of the screener during the screening operations. Again, the spoils yard is not a large area.

•Is this material readily accessible next to a roadway? Yes, the spoils yard has two points of entry/exit onto paved roads. The removal of the material would use one access to enter with trucks and the other access to exit with the loaded material.

•What type of material is in the stockpile (topsoil, soil, stone, unsuitable, etc.)? Material that has been screened by ANC and could include topsoil, stone less than 3" and material that could be considered unsuitable.

•How will we be paid for the incidental work to dispose of the prescreened material if required such as escorts, erosion control, grading, restoration, street sweeping, seeding, etc.? You must include all incidentals in the unit price of the material removal.

Bid Inquiry 8922194 Will the unit prices bid for items 0002A, 0002B and 0002C be used for the negotiation of future task orders or do these prices only apply to bid items 0001 and 0003?

Government Response. Items 0002A,B and C are independent labor rate totals for purposes of price comparison for Total Price Comparison, they are not to be used in conjunction with bid items 0001 Seed Project separate lump sum line item, but maybe used in combination with bid items 0003. Combination of Items 0002A,B and C, as well as 00003A,B and C maybe used in reference for future task orders as applicable.

Bid Inquiry 8922199 What is the estimated notice to proceed date for this project?

Government Response. Spring/Summer 2021

Government Response. See Specification SECTION 01 30 00.10 51 para 1.7 and 1.10, regarding special scheduling requirements and work hours. A list of scheduled ceremonies will be provided each week prior to the event, and a list of scheduled funerals will be provide the day prior to the service. One week notice on special ceremonies (such as the Pan Am Memorial) will be provided by ANC. As a rule of thumb, work - especially with power equipment - work within 1,000 feet of the funeral or ceremony is not acceptable.

Bid Inquiry 8925289 Specification 31 00 page 20 states the Contractor shall provide support of excavation for graves with 3' of the excavation. The grave offset dimensions are not shown on the plans. How many graves should we anticipate are within 3' of the work zone?

Government Response. Per Specification SECTION 01 50 00.00 50, paragraph 3.4: There is no available space on or near the site for permanent, long term, contractor-owned and/or -leased trailers used for office space and storage.

Single day use of mobile temporary storage systems may be allowed on site with prior approval by the Contracting Officer.

Small laydown areas may possibly become available on ANC at a later date but are not guaranteed for this project or future projects. If, a laydown area became available for project use in the future, temporary facilities and utilities would not be available, contractor's would be required to provide their own temporary facilities, power, communication, water and sewer, to be submitted in contractor proposed site plan and approved by the Contracting Officer prior to mobilization.

Bid Inquiry 8925300 Specification 01 35 states the Contractor shall provide a Site Safety and Health Officer (SSHO) and that this person may not be the Superintendent or Quality Control Manager. How will the SSHO be paid on this project? Can another bid item (0002D) be added for the SSHO?
