11612087 Facilities Maintenance ADDENDUM TO 52.212-1, ATTACHMENT 1, SECTION L Section L.5.1, Proposal Format (a)

Comment Classification: UNCLASSIFIED (U)

Item (a) states, "Price information shall be included in the price proposal only."

However, Sections L.5.1 (Proposal Format, item (c) chart) and 5.2.4 (Volume IV – Solicitation Documents) require submission of Section B – Pricing Schedule in Volume IV – Solicitation Documents, which is contrary to "the price proposal only" directive. Is this correct?

Also, Section L.5.2.3 (Volume III – Price, d. Electronic Copy) states, "The Price Volume shall contain the Pricing Spreadsheets to include all required data in the pricing schedule – Section B with a Price Volume proposal supporting narrative...If there are any discrepancies identified between the information provided in Volume III – Price and Volume IV – Solicitation Documents, the data identified in Volume IV will take precedence." And Section L.5.2.3 (Volume III – Price, e. Narrative) states, "The price proposal narrative shall contain same price volume required in 'd. electronic copy' to include Pricing Spreadsheets to include all required data in the pricing schedule-Section B." Is Section B to be included in both Volume III – Price and Volume IV – Solicitation Documents?

These instructions are conflicting and confusing. Please clarify where Section B – Pricing Schedule should be included and revise solicitation instructions if needed.

On: Nov 19 2025.

Government Response. . Section L.5.1(a) will be amended to state "Price information shall only be included in the Volume III-Price and Volume IV-Solicitation Documents.

11614348 Facilities Maintenance Technical Level I vs Level II Comment Classification: UNCLASSIFIED (U)

Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) structure for Technical Provisions (TPs) 7 through 18 (excluding TP 8 – Landscape and TP 13 – Boundary Line). These TPs appear to be written verbatim from the previous Cost- Reimbursement contract. TPs 7, 9-12, 14-18.

For example, TP-1.2 defines Level I work as "routine, preventive maintenance and minor repairs," yet TP-7 assigns extensive maintenance and repair responsibilities, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, motors/pumps, sewage systems, structures, cranes, communication towers, fire suppression systems, sand traps, trash racks, etc., with no or maximum quantities, no maximum per repair $ limits, no maximum $ repair yearly limits, etc. making it unreasonable for Offerors to determine a realistic, risk-balanced price for a five-year FFP period. In addition, TPs 9-12 and 14-18 contain similar Level I pricing uncertainties.

For TPs 7, 9-12, 14-18 will the Government please provide maximum quantities, maximum per repair $ limits, maximum annual $ repairs for Level I?

On: Nov 20 2025.

Government Response. . Please reference Table I PWS quantities in the PWS and/or the solicitation in L.5.2.3 On: Nov 24 2025 Current Request Status: Request Closed

11614405 Facilities Maintenance Technical Level I vs Level II Comment Classification: UNCLASSIFIED (U)

Solicitation language in TP-1.2 states that fully burdened unit pricing for Level II services should assume that contractor staffing for Level II work performed during normal working hours is already included in TP-2 staffing. However, TP-2.0 states that any additional staffing not included as Level I routine work will instead be included within the applicable Level II CLIN. These statements are unreasonable, as both imply that Level II labor requirements for 90 potential tasks per year, have Labor embedded within Level I, even though Level II tasks are non-routine, unexercised, and separately priced.

How is the Offeror expected to determine the amount of Level II labor that should be embedded within the Level I labor when up to 90 potential Level II tasks may be ordered each year, and the quantities for these tasks are not guaranteed?

On: Nov 20 2025.

Government Response. . TP-1.2 will be updated and amended to read as follows:

TP-1.2 Definition of Services: Firm fixed price work requirements are grouped into two (2) categories; Level I, Routine Standard Services, and Level II, Non-Routine Services. Level I services are defined as the effort necessary to meet the standard requirement of each technical provision and include routine, preventive maintenance, and minor repairs such as inspections, testing, cleaning, adjusting, calibrating, and other minor maintenance corrections, including all scheduled and preventative maintenance recommended by the manufacturers of the systems and equipment referenced in the technical provisions. Level II work is defined as additional quantities or frequencies of tasks associated with all technical provisions or unanticipated incidences that occur, including but not limited to, theft, vandalism, severe weather and related acts of God/nature and will be generated by the government as a service request (see TP-1.2.1 for detail).

Reference Table 1 of the PWS for expected routine quantities related to Level I services. Table also identifies the technical provisions where Level II non-routine services may be requested and the anticipated quantity of such potential additional service. On: Nov 24 2025

Supporting a previously asked RFI on the page limit for Volume III of 20 pages. M.3.c.ii. states that "The offeror's proposal must be clear and convincing in demonstrating that the prices in the offeror's proposal are realistic for the work to be performed, reflect a clear understanding for the requirements, and are consistent with the various requirements of the offeror's technical proposal (FAR 15.404- 1(d))." It also states that "Insufficient details to support the determination of price reasonableness, or evaluation of unbalanced pricing, initially or subsequently, may be a consideration for excluding the offeror's proposal from the competitive range and/or further consideration for award. The burden of proof rests with the offeror." To account for the Price Narrative, the necessary supporting pricing details as noted in the requirements above, plus the Pricing Schedule(s) (such as the 70 page CLIN listing), the page limitation is far too low. Respectfully suggest that the page count for this volume be set to at least 200 pages (or no limit) to account for all of the required content, all of which is necessary for the price evaluation by the source selection team.

11626363 Contracting PWS Table 1 Multiple Level I Items Comment Classification: UNCLASSIFIED (U)

There are at least 10 different individual Service Level I service items where the service cost is greater than the $2,500 threshold (or may cross that threshold in future years due to inflation escalation).

This creates an inherent Level I / Level II conflict for pricing proposal purposes. This affects the following: TP-6.2 Cleanout of sand trap areas at CPS; TP-6.2 Cleanout of main pond area areas at CPS;

TP-7.4.1 Cleaning of the 5-ton Bridge crane; TP-7.4.2 Cleaning of the 300 ton gantry crane; TP-7.3.7.1 Hydrostatic testing of 115 CO2 bottles; TP-10.5 Beach Sand; TP-15.10 Riprap: TP-18.1 Elevator Load Testing; TP-18.1 Elevator Inspection and Maint (2 instances - Dam and Powerhouse). We believe that the most effective resolution of the conflict would be to change these items to Service Level II.

Service Level II would be the most efficient solution administratively for both the government and the contractor, rather than managing/tracking a list of exceptions. Please advise.
