SUMMARY OF CHANGES

Section 00 21 00 - Instructions

Miscellaneous text in this section has been modified to:

1.1 GENERAL BIDDING INFORMATION

Bidders shall e-mail bids to the below individuals no later than the date and time established in Block 13 of the Standard Form (SF) 1442, or Block 14 of the most recent SF 30, as applicable:

Nadine Catania, Contracting Officer: nadine.l.catania@usace.army.mil Clinton Russell, Contract Specialist: brandie.l.murphy@usace.army.mil

Each email shall contain the following information:

a. Solicitation No: W9128F25BA008

b. Bid Due Date and Time: See Section SF1442 (00 10 00 page 1)

c. Bid Validity Date: 60 Days

Bids received after the date and time stated within Block 13 of the SF 1442 or Block 14 of the most recent SF 30, as applicable, will be considered late and will not be considered for award. To avoid rejection of a bid, the bidder must ensure the e-mail submission is virus-free. The government will follow FAR 14.406 if an e-mail bid is unreadable. Part 15 is not applicable to this acquisition.

Bidders should enter a description for every file submitted. For files over 20 megabytes (MB) the bidders shall break the file into smaller files sent via separate emails with each email marked to identify which number the email is relative to the total number of emails submitted (i.e. "email one of four"). Once all of the emails submitted have been received the Government will confirm receipt via responsive email. If a bidder submits multiple bids the Government will only consider the last bid submitted prior to the bid due date and time.

Do not assume submission will be instantaneous. File size and number of files submitted shall be considered. Bidder/Teammate/Subcontractors should allow adequate time for submission completion because the entire bid (i.e. bidders' submission and all teammate/subcontractor(s) independent submissions) must be received by the bid due date and time specified in Block 13 of SF 1442, or SF 30 as applicable.

Electronic submission of bids satisfies the requirement set forth in Block 13A of the SF 1442 ('...in original and copies..."). Additionally, electronic submission of the bid guarantee, when a bid guarantee is required, is due with the bid submission. Mailing a bid guarantee is not allowed.

1.1.12 NOTICE REGARDING BUY AMERICAN STATUE

The Buy American statute (41 U.S.C. 83 chapter 83, Buy American) generally requires that only domestic construction material be used in the performance of this contract. Exception from the Buy American statute shall be permitted only in the case of non-availability of domestic construction materials or allowed under Trade Agreements, if included in the solicitation. A bid offering nondomestic construction material will not be accepted unless specifically approved by the Government or allowed under Trade Agreements, if included in the solicitation. When a bidder proposes to furnish nondomestic construction material, his bid must set forth an itemization of the quantity, unit price, and intended use of each item of such nondomestic construction material. When offering nondomestic construction material pursuant to this paragraph, bids may also offer, at stated prices, any available comparable domestic construction material, so as to avoid the possibility that failure of a nondomestic construction material to be acceptable under this paragraph will cause rejection of the entire bid, unless allowed under Trade Agreements, if included in the solicitation. All bidders are cautioned that, prior Government conduct notwithstanding, the Contractor's selection of a domestic construction material (as defined in FAR 52.225-9 Buy American Construction Materials) which would require the subsequent selection of a foreign construction material for compatibility is not a justification for waiver of the Buy American statute. It is the Contractor's responsibility to verify, prior to submitting the materials for approval that each system can be built to meet the contract specifications and Buy American statute requirements of the solicitation.

1.1.13 FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL TAXES

The bidder is responsible for investigating applicable federal, state, and local taxes and any specific exemptions that may exist and includes applicable Value-Added Taxes (VAT), sales, use, and excise taxes. See 52.229-3 Federal, State, and Local in Section 00 72 00 (General Conditions).
