REQUEST FOR INFORMATION

REQUEST FOR INFORMATION

SOUTHERN NEW YORK LOCAL FLOOD PROTECTION PROJECTS

BROOME AND STEUBEN COUNTIES, NEW YORK

GRASS MOWING / TRIMMING

W912DR-17-T-0083

Q1. Where is the map for Almond Dam?

A1. Map of the mowing areas at Almond Dam is attached. Note that the areas shown as tree covered on the south abutment have been cleared of trees.

Q2. How does the government intend to deal with the height of the grass given the requirements in the contract and mowing schedule for 4 cycles?

A2. 4 cycles (or 2 cycles depending on the location) is the typical schedule needed to accomplish the Government’s goals for these projects. Cycles will be shifted throughout the growing season to adjust to growing conditions.

Because of the late award of the contract, the grass will be longer at the first cut. The Contractor’s bid for the Base Year should include any cost adjustments required due to longer grass this year.

Q3. Why is Almond Dam 2 cycles, when it will be unsafe to operate any equipment on such a steep incline with the tall grass?

A3. Mowing at Almond Dam has been accomplished with 2 cycles for the past 5 years.

Q4. The mowing schedule would need to be back to back to satisfy the specs set forth in the contract, especially given the height of the grass right now. Is this something that is an option?

A4. Because of the late start to mowing, the first two cycles may be required in shorter succession than usual. The Contractor’s bid for the Base Year should reflect this possibility.

Q5. Would you like to see the Resumes and Pricing schedules as separate Volumes or can I attach them as an appendix to one proposal?

A5. Please provide the Pricing Schedule as a separate volume to include the Bid Sheet.

Q6. To clarify the past performance, is there anything for me to submit or just the questionnaires submitted by our references?

A6. Please submit the questionnaires, two references from previously completed jobs with relevant to the work as stated in the instruction to offeror.

Q7. If we do need to submit past performance, is there a certain format how you would like to see it?

A7. Please submit the past performance using the past performance questionnaires provided in the Solicitation and a separate form with references as stated in the Instruction to Offeror.

Q8. Says it is set aside for a WOSB. I am not so should I not bother quoting?

A8. This requirement has been set-a-side for Women Owned Small Business only.

Q9. How are these services currently being performed? Under contract? In-house?

A.9. This is a new requirement.

Q10. If these requirements are currently being performed under a contract,

a. Who is the Contractor?

b. What is the contract number?

c. When does the contract expire?

d. What is the current contract value?

A10. This is a new requirement.
