Statement of Work

Paragraph 1 “Spares Designation: MD-09-05-22”:

It is the contractor’s responsibility to obtain the publications from FM/ALCO to assure they are using the most current information for the job.

Paragraph 6: The contractor is to obtain most current publication copies directly from ALCO to insure latest revisions and changes are utilized.

Replace with: “It is the contractor’s responsibility to re-build the parts to the latest revision of the manufacturer’s specifications."

Questions

Question 1: Does the Combined Synopsis/Solicitation under solicitation number W912BU-16- T-0005 contain requirements similar to a current contract? If so, please provide the current contract number.

Answer 1: No, this is a new requirement

Question 2: The SOW directs the contractor to bear the burden of obtaining the ALCO publications from FM/ALCO. The contractor is challenged in meeting this requirement due to FM/ALCO refusal to make available in obtaining the referenced publications. ALCO representative stated that they will make available the OEM’s latest version of the repair manuals referenced in the solicitation to the Engine Owners “ONLY”.

W912BU-16-T-0005

Answer 2: USACE is not responsible for nor are we liable for “making” FM/ALCO provide the repair manuals referenced in the solicitation. FM/ALCO has the right, since they are the owners of the patents/copyright to these materials, to make them available to FM/ALCO authorized agent/distributor/rebuild firms or others IAW their company policies. However, this does not preclude any vendor from entering a private agreement with AF/ALCO to obtain these manuals.

Additionally the sentences that initially required the contractors to obtain these publications has been removed and replaced with: “It is the contractor’s responsibility to re-build the parts to the latest revision of the manufacturer’s specifications."

Question 3: Please provide ALCO specifications MI-11020G, DRP-12200N and DRP-12400H.

Answer 3: “It is the contractor’s responsibility to re-build the parts to the original manufacturer’s specifications."

Question 4: Please provide model and serial numbers for the referenced ALCO Engine referenced in the solicitation.

Answer 4: Engine numbers are: 251C for 12 cyl - 8848, 8850, 8849, 8851, 8852, 8853, and 8854. 251B for 16 cyl - 8855, 8856, 8857. Engine 8852 is 12 cyl, but the engine block was replaced with a 251F.

Question 5: In the solicitation it states, "Contractor shall offer with his proposal a warranty ... in accordance with the contract clauses. ... The warranty shall be set up for the number of operational hours rather than days." Please advise how many hours are required to comply with this requirement.

Answer 5: 250 operating hours

All other terms and conditions remain unchanged.
