Questions & Answers Solicitation W9127N19Q0024 Amendment 0001

Question 1: The current procedure for taking all the CO2 system cylinders up to the main level is through a small one-man elevator in Powerhouse 1 & 2. Is it permissible to arrange with the Project to have cylinders craned out in a carriage when the time comes to perform the hydro testing?

Answer: No. Powerhouse 2 has at each end a 4000 lbs capacity 6x8 ft Freight elevator accessible to all levels.

Powerhouse 1 does have a small elevator for this purpose. Based on work load of Bonneville’s crews and limited to 2 certified crane operators at that location crane support would not be feasible and therefore will not be available to the contractor.

Question 2: What is the make of the Emergency Breathing Apparatus (EBA's) and Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA’s)?

Answer: The SCBA's are MSA custom 4500 Fire Hawks, and the EBA's are: 1) North model 850-10 minute, and 2) MSA "TransAire" - 5 minute.

Question 3: The PWS identifies Automatic External Defibrillator (AED's) in para 5.5 Medical Equipment Service.

During the walk through it was stated that the AEDs and O2 would be the responsibility of the Bonneville Emergency Response Team. O2 is not in the PWS. Are AEDs to remain in the PWS?

Answer: AEDs have been removed. See revised PWS 5.5.

Question 4: PWS 5.2.2, CO2 Emergency Bottle Replacement, states, “Replacement bottles shall be installed within 48 hours from the time of notice.” We understand that will be done by Corps employees utilizing the spare banks.

Am I right in understanding the contractor will pick up the empty bottles from a staged location, service, recharge and return, but that does not fall under the 48 hour timeframe?

Answer: Section 5.2.2 Emergency Bottle Replacement has been clarified (see revised PWS Section 5.2.2). The Government (Bonneville Project) will replace and refill separately from the contract. There may be occasions the Project will require some assistance in getting the system back online due to work load.

Question 5: With respect to the Governments’ Equipment Inventory, it was noted that the Frequency of Service chart does not align with the number of Hydrostatic tests due on a year to year basis.

Answer: The PWS’s Frequency Chart’s, para 5.7, column “Quantity of Item” shall serve as the basis for calculating the offeror’s price for monthly services.

6.3 Surveillance. Periodic by the COR will serve as the surveillance methods. If the COR discovers deficiencies and/or receives complaints, the COR will alert them to the Contractor for correction.

6.4 Quality Control. The Contractor, not the Government, is responsible for quality control actions necessary to meet the quality standards set forth by the contract. The Contractor shall develop and submit its Quality Control Plan (QCP) for Government approval within 14 calendar days after contract award in compliance with the PWS. Once accepted, the QCP becomes a part of the Quality Control Surveillance Plan (QASP).

The QASP is not a contractual instrument and may be changed at the KO’s discretion. The Contractor uses the QASP to guide and document the implementation of the required management and quality control actions to achieve the specified results. The Government reserves the right under Contract Terms and Conditions--Commercial Items (FAR 52.212-4) to inspect and test the services called for by the contract, to the extent practicable at all times and places during the term of the contract. Non-conforming services shall be rejected.

6.5 Unacceptable Performance. When performance is determined unacceptable, as defined in the Performance

Requirements Summary, the COR will inform the Contractor’s on-site representative that performance is unacceptable and provide written documentation by use of the Form DD 2772, Contract Discrepancy Report. By initialing and dating the form, the Contractor is only acknowledging notification of unacceptable performance. Disputes in surveillance should be referred to the KO.

The COR will notify the KO of less than acceptable performance. If any of the services do not conform to contract requirements, the Government may require the Contractor to perform the services again in conformity with contract requirements, at no increase in contract amount. When the defect(s) in services cannot be corrected by re-performance, the Government may:

a. Require the Contractor to take necessary action to ensure future performance conforms to contract requirements.

b. Reduce the contract price to reflect the reduced value of the services performed.

c. If the Contractor fails to promptly re-perform the services, or to take the necessary action to ensure future performance in conformity with contract requirements, the Government may:

i. By contract or otherwise, perform the services and charge to the Contractor any cost incurred by the Government that is directly related to the performance of such service;

ii. Issue Cure Notice;

iii. Terminate the contract for Government convenience; and / or

iv. Terminate the contract for Cause.

6.6 Correction of Non-Performance of Work. Contractor shall employ an adequate quantity of personnel to ensure that any area found to be not in compliance and, therefore not acceptable, shall be made acceptable by the performance or re-performance of the work, where such re-performance is possible, during the first business day after noncompliance has been observed by or reported to and verified by the COR.
