W912DS-15-B-0012

Question and Answer

Question 1: After receiving feedback from potential subcontractors for the upland construction bid items, it appears that the outfall scope of work will be difficult to complete by the current contract completion date. Given the number of submittals, material procurement, and magnitude of construction required associated with the outfall work, can an additional 365 days be added to the contract completion date?”

Response 1: The specifications have been revised to reflect a longer duration for all other work besides Hydraulic Beachfill.

Question 2: Will the government please reconsider removing the language in section 00 73 00 Special Contract Requirements, Paragraph 1, which requires the contractor to commence placing sand on the beach within 60 days of NTP. Since the beach fill portion of this project is likely to take only about one half of the contractually allowed time, we ask that this artificial restriction to competition be removed and contractors be allowed to schedule their work to give the government the most competitive price as long as they complete within the noted contractual timeframe.

Response 2: The specifications have been revised to remove the requirement of commencement of beachfill within 60 days.

Question 3: Please consider extending the project duration at least 6 months to account for the amount of outfall construction, submissions & approvals, and procurement of materials and coordination with replenishment and other contracts.

Response 3: The specifications have been revised to reflect a longer duration for all other work besides Hydraulic Beach Fill.
