Dated 29 Jul 15

Q1. How do I access the files/documents for the Project?

A1. See, Sections 4.4, 4.5 & 4.7 of the FBO Vendor Guide available for download in PDF format via the Federal Business Opportunities / FBO Home Page. See also, Section 00100 of the Solicitation. Additionally, to view and/or download Export Controlled Materials, a company must be certified (via an approved DD Form 2345) by the Joint Certification Program (JCP) administered by the DLA Logistic Information Service (DLIS). This certification establishes that a company is a U.S. or Canadian contractor eligible to receive unclassified technical data that is under the control of the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) or the Canadian Department of National Defense (DND). Questions about this program or DD Form 2345 should be addressed to U.S./Canada Joint Certification Office, DLA Logistics Information Services (DLIS), Federal Center, 74 Washington Avenue North, Battle Creek, MI 49017-3084. The Joint Certification Office may be contacted by telephone at: 1-(800) 352-3572; or email: jcp-admin@.dla.mil.

Q2. I am trying to access the [export controlled] packages and have a number as assigned on DD Form 2345 but cannot get the packages to open. Our DD 2345 Number is ####### expiration ##/##/2015.

A2. The U.S./Canada Joint Certification Program (JCP) office reported to this office that once a company is certified with the JCP office (normally 7 to 12 business days), the company should contact FBO to have them add their JCP number to their FBO account. The FBO help desk (Federal Service Desk) reported to this office that mailto:jcp-admin@.dla.mil companies need to make sure that they are registered and login as a Vendor to FBO. When the Vendor click's to open an export controlled package/document, they should be asked for their MPIN. After entering the MPIN, the export controlled package/document should be viewable/downloadable by Vendors that have gone through the JCP process. If a Vendor still has problems, the Vendor should check to make sure that their CCR registration and MPIN are valid and up-to-date. If problems still persist, the Vendor may call the FBO help desk at 866-606-8220, selection option 2 for FBO issues, and ask for troubleshooting assistance.

Q3. Please help me access the locked documents for solicitation W912J6-15-R-0007.

A3. Reference answers A1 and A2 above. After your firm contact and submits a DD Form 2345 to the Joint Certification Program (JCP) which is administered by the DLA Logistic Information (contact information provided in A1) your firm can send proof of this application and submission via a copy of the email receipt from the JCP or DLA personnel that your certification is in process to manual.llanes.mil@mail.mil and copy to julianne.j.cooper.ctr@mail.mil . Pending receipt of the proof that your application is pednding certification the Contracting Officer may make the locked files directly available to your frim via AMRDEC SAFE. This access will not be granted if your firm does not apply for certification and follow the above mentioned instructions in A1 and A2.

Q4. We cannot download the specification and drawing documents for the subject bid with MPIN. Is there any way we can get the export controlled documents except applying JCP certification?

A4. See Item A3 Above.

Dated 05 Aug 15

Q5. Please confirm whether the Government would like Volume 2 Part 1 and Volume 2 Part 2 submitted together in the same binder or in separate binders.

A5. Submit Volume 2 Part I and Part 2 in the same binder

Q6. Due to pricing often coming in very close to the proposal deadline, would the Government please consider allowing Offerors to submit the electronic copy (CD/ DVD) of Volume 1 the following business day of the proposal deadline?

A6. No all proposal materials are due by the time and date specified on the SF 1442.

Q7. For ease of reading, would the Government please consider allowing 11x17 paper for the schedule?

A7. 11x17 paper is allowable for the schedule portion of the proposal only.

Q8. Section 001100, 2.4.2.1 says that "(Volume 2 Part 1) is limited to 15 pages", while Section 00120, 2.1.1, states "Technical Capability is limited to fifteen (15) double sided pages.

Q9. Refer to bid item 1000 (KNMD112001 Base Bid Minor Construction. What’s included in this item 1000?

Does item 1000 have separate items to be priced other than options (option 1 thru 4) or item 1000 is just the sum of option 1 thru 4 (item 1001, 1002, 1003 and 1004? AN101 and AN102 indicate the same area for item 1000 (minor construction), 1002 (Option 2) and 1003 (Option 3).

mailto:manual.llanes.mil@mail.mil

A9. The drawings and specifications for project KNMD112001 clearly note/define which scope and items are to be included in item. Please review the solication. CLINs #1001, #1002, #1003, and #1004 are not included in item #1000. See question #10 and associated response to address last item in this question.

Q10. Refer to bid item 1002 (option 2 mezzanine area 1) and item 1003 (option 3 mezzanine area 2). What’s the difference between these two options? AN102 points out the same area.

A10. Drawing AN102 notes “Options 2 and 3 For Mechanical Platform see Structural Drawings”. Structural Drawing S-102 and associated reference other structural drawings address limits of the incrementally partitioned mechanical platform.

Q11. Note in L-101 and L-201 states that “ALL WORK ON THIS SHEET IS DEFINED AS MINOR CONSTRUCTION”. Therefore our assumption is that item 3000 (KNMD112006-base bid minor construction) is just the sum of bid item 3001 (option1) and 3002 (option 2). Correct?

A11. No. Sheets L-101 and L-201 are each to be addressed separately.

Sheet L-101 Note states “Installation of screen soil, Bermuda grass, and temporary irrigation system is defined as repair work. All other work on this sheet is defined as minor construction. So, part of this sheet’s scope and costs will be allocated to CLIN 4000. In addition, the minor construction shown on L-101 is broken into three allocations, base bid items (CLIN 3000), option 1 items (CLIN 3001) and option 2 items (CLIN 3002). Drawing L-101 notes for each item on the drawing – which allocation it belongs in.

Sheet L-201 has two general notes. One note states “All work on this sheet is defined as minor construction.”. The second note then describes the portions of construction on this sheet that is allocated to the base bid (CLIN 3000), the portions of construction on the sheet which is in option 1 (CLIN 3001) and the portion of construction on the sheetwhich is in optin 2 (CLIN 3002).

Q19. Reference : Section 321313 Concrete Pavement Parking Lots 2.01 C, 4 Will the design team accept C1293 for aggregate ASR qualification on this and future non-airfield pavement projects? (please refer to attached documents from Hawaiian Cements)

A19. Contractor may utilize aggregate meeting ASTM C1293 on this project in lieu of C1260 as long as the material meets all other requirements of Section 32 13 13.

Q20. Reference : C-501 – Temporary construction fence

a. The post are to be installed in tires – what tire size?

b. Specs required the fence to be no more than 2” off the ground, we would like to ask if there is available specs for tire base fence post.

c. Note regarding the fence being able to withstand wind from jet blast? Due to no information withstand, we would like to ask providing of post design based on tire.

A20. A) The Contractor is responsible for the construction fence around the jobsite and the fence along the apron edge withstanding aircraft engine exhaust. Contractor is responsible and liable for the installation and maintenance of this fence. BMcD nor HIANG is liable for the installation and maintenance of this fence. As an example, the Contractor can look at past fences utilized on the airport by other contractors such as jersey barriers on the bottom with chainlink on top, just plain chainlink with additional backbracing posts, or other means and methods. Details indicated on the drawing are just an example to show the height and material type to be used, not a designed fence.

Typical jet blast in the area of this fence is not expected to exceed typical windy days on the island that can/will reach more than 50mph. Maximum 2” clearance is to prevent FOD, tools/equipment, or personnel from passing under the fence

Q21. For the permanent fence Reference : AN 103

Question : Is this fence galvanized or PVC coated?

A21. See specification 102213, 2.06.D. Finish – …paint with gray enamel in the shop.

Q22. Reference : C-103 mechanical yards Base bid – chainlink enclosure Question : Please confirm 8 feet height chainlink.

A22. Chainlink fence height to be 7 ft with 1ft for 3 barbed wire outriggers for a total of 8 ft.

Q23. Reference : AN 101 , AN 102 Question : is this “wire mesh” supposed to be chain link? If so this totally custom made and there is no manufacturer to follow for the installation. The post are square per the notes so it does not meet the fence specs. More detailed information will be needed.

A23. See specification 102213 for wire mesh requirements.

Q24. Reference : Spec section 323113 – chain link fence Question :

a. Paragraph 2.03A/2 – galvanized fabric – specs call out 2 classes of fabric required, class 1 and class 2

– what is required?

b. Paragraph 2.04A – framing – specs call out that the fittings meet ASTM A153 – fittings are made to meet ASTM F626 and do not meet ASTM A153 – this must change or the material will not meet specs. These same problems are in spec section 323115 – temporary construction fence

A24. Part a) All fence materials to be PVC coated as indicated in Section 2.02.A and 2.03.A.2. Part b) Fittings to meet F626.

Q25. Reference : Bid items for this project Question : It seems that the most part of Bid Options are clearly defined in some areas of the plan drawings. However, all depiction that is not clearly defined as a base bid or a bid option item, should automatically fall under base bid item No. 1000 , or 2000, 3000, 4000?

A25. The procurement documents clearly note the scopes of work associated with the Bid Options (1001, 1002, 1003, 1004, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 3001, 3002, 4001, 4002, and 4003). The balance of the work/scope is allocated to Base Bid items 1000(B3416 Minor Construction), 2000 (B3416 Repair), 3000(B3416 Infrastructure Minor Construction), and 4000 (B3416 Infrastructure Repair). Relative to the scope in 1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000 the drawings are set up to clearly note what is Minor Construction (MC) – which belongs in 1000 and 3000, the balance of work not in the options or defined as Minor Construction (MC) belongs in items 2000 and 4000 as repair.

Q26. Reference : Cost Limitation applies for Option items.

Question :To avoid misunderstanding, we would like to ask cost limitation criteria by using below shown example. Please confirm which is right way.

A : Combined option items shall not exceed $ 710,000 Option 1 + option 2 + option 3 + option 4 = $700,000 “OK” Option 1 + option 2 + option 3 + option 4 = $720,000 “NG”

B : Each option item shall not exceed $ 710,000 Option 1 + option 2 + option 3 + option 4 = $2,800,000 “OK” Option 1 + option 2 + option 3 + option 4 = $2,850,000 “NG”

A26. Your examples are unclear to the Government.

In an effort to provide an explination and answer this RFI please reference answers to Q9 and Q12 above and the following explination.

PLEASE NOTE: The Minor Construction limitation of $710,000 applies respectively. It is not combined.

Q29. Reference : Plan AN 101 Notes of “ Minor construction Area”

Question : It is indicated that “minor construction area is consists of door 125A” However, entrance door is depicted by 129A on grid line A. Please clarify.

A29. Overhead door 129A is in ‘Minor Construction’.

Q30. Reference : Plan S-101 Grid line A Column “ New W8 x 31”

Question : In spite of indicated above, it is depicted by “ W 8 x 35” based on plan S-201.

Please confirm.

A30. Will be addressed in forthcoming Addendum.

Q31. Reference : Plan T-601 K eyed note 4, for Bid Item 5, Question : Please provide site plan showing pathway from Building 3316 to Building 3385.

Also, provide manhole butterflys showing actual conduit usage.

A31. The pathway between Buildings 3316 and 3385 is exsiting. The distance for the new cable is 1000 liner feet.

Butteryfly drawings are not available contractor shall verify path prior to pull.

Q32. Please refer to spec 321313, 2.01, C, 4 and attached inquiry from Hawaiian Cement. Please confirm if the design team will accept ASTM C1293 in lieu of C1260 for aggregate ASR qualification on this project and future non-airfield pavement projects

A32. Contractor may utilize aggregate meeting ASTM C1293 on this project in lieu of C1260 as long as the material meets all other requirements of Section 32 13 13.

Q33. Please refer to the attached excerpts from the specification. Spec 018113, 3.01, A states that “independent Commissioning Authority contracted by the Government or A/E” whereas 019113 1.02 B mentions that “The CA (Commissioning Authority) is hired by the GC (General Contractor)”. Please verify who will be hiring the CA (Commissioning Authority)?

A33. To be addressed in forthcoming Addendum.

Q34.Can micropile subcontractor use the same test pile for both the compression test and lateral test?

A34. Per Article 3.05.A of Section 31 63 33, the Contractor shall install one test micropile for static load testing.

Since a single micropile is used for both types of tests (static axial compression and lateral), the micropile shall be tested under axial compression, and then lateral loading. All micropiles used during load tests, including test micropiles and reactions piles, shall be considered waste piles and shall not be installed in production micropile locations.

Q35. If micropile subcontractor provides a design as stated under spec 316333-3, 1.05, B. 1., may the subcontractor's micropile designer have authority to reduce/increase casing and center bar sizes and grades of steel?

A35. If the Contractor elects to submit an alternate micropile design, it shall meet the requirements of Section 31 63 33 (including Articles 1.04 and 1.05). Alternate combination of casing thickness, bar size and grout strength may be proposed by the micropile subcontractor’s designer; however, the Engineer reserves the right to review the alternate design notes submitted by the micropile subcontractor’s designer to confirm compliance with the design criteria outlined in Section 31 63 33 (including IBC and FHWA documents incorporated by reference). The alternate micropile design notes must be signed/sealed by a Professional Engineer licensed in the project’s jurisdiction. If the alternate design does not meet the full requirements of Section 31 63 33, the Contractor would need to revert back to the base bid micropile design for final construction at no additional cost to the Government.

Q36. 1A - Specification §316333-1.03A “Experience Qualifications” stipulates “. . . experience with similar subsurface materials, water conditions, micro-pile dimensions, and special techniques as required.” 1B - We are a small business with over 25 years of experience installing small diameter micro-piling, tieback, soil nailing, and anchor systems. The largest “dimension” of micro-pile we install on a regular basis consists of 7- 5/8” Outside Diameter casing. 1C - Specification §316333-2.02C “Steel Casing” stipulates “Minimum outside diameter of steel casing shall be 9-5/8 inches.” Could you confirm that our 25 years of experience installing micro-piles with steel casing up to 7-5/8” in diameter satisfies the “similar micro-pile dimensions” stipulated as one of the Experience Qualifications requirements?

A36. This experience is acceptable, provided that the bidder has the capability to install the specified 9-5/8” casing on the current project.

Q37. 2A - Specification §316333-1.04A “Design Criteria” stipulates “. . . alternate micro-pile . . . shall be designed to meet . . . IBC 2012 and . . . FHWA NHI-05-039.” 2B - §316333-1.04B stipulates “Minimum steel casing diameter of 9.625 inches.” 2C - §316333-1.04E stipulates “Minimum rock socket diameter of 8.5 inches.” 2D - §316333-1.05B(1) stipulates “If . . . an alternate micro-pile design, the Contractor’s Engineer shall submit . . . proposed micro-pile foundation system signed and sealed by a Professional Engineer licensed in the State . . . . .” Will it be acceptable to propose an alternate micro-pile design signed and sealed by a

Hawaii licensed P. E. employing a smaller casing and rock socket diameter pending verification of the design capacity(s) by testing in accordance with the applicable Project Specifications?

A37. As noted in the specification, alternate designs will be considered. However, the micropile subcontractor’s engineer shall submit Micropile Design Notes demonstrating that their alternate section satisfies the required Design Criteria prior to acceptance of the alternate micropile section. Final acceptance of the alternate system will ultimately be subject to successful completion of the static axial compression and lateral load testing.

Q38. Specification §316333-1.03C “Experience Qualifications” stipulates “Contractor shall assign a registered Professional Engineer to supervise all aspects of the Project with at least 3 years of experience in the design and construction of micro-piles.” Could you clarify/confirm it is intended that the above referenced P. E. will only be responsible for the supervision of the micro-piling installations? Will it be permissible for the micro-piling contractor to engage/retain the P. E. who performed the geotechnical investigations at/of the site for the government to provide the specified supervision of the micro-piling work?

If it is permissible to engage the government’s geotechnical engineer to supervise the micro-piling work, could you provide the name of the engineer and his firm’s name?

A38.The reference Professional Engineer is responsible for a requirements stipulated in Sepecction Section 316333.

No it will not be permissible for the micro-piling contractor to engage/retain the P.E. who performed the geotechnical investigations at/of the site for the government to provide the specified supervision of the micro-piling work. No it is not permissible to engage the government’s geotechnical engineer to supervise the micro-piling work.

Q39. Specification §316333-106D “Subsurface Information” stipulates “. . . additional subsurface information . . . obtain the services of a Geotechnical Engineer to perform a supplemental subsurface investigation . . . .” Will it be permissible for the micro-piling contractor to engage/retain the P. E. who performed the geotechnical investigations at/of the site for the government to perform a supplemental subsurface investigation?If it is permissible to engage the government’s geotechnical engineer to perform a supplemental subsurface investigation, could you provide the name of the engineer and his firm’s name?

A39. No, It is not permissible for the micro-piling contractor to engage/retain the P. E. who performed the geotechnical investigations at/of the site for the government to perform a supplemental subsurface investigation.

Q40. Specification §316333-2.04A(6)(b) stipulates “Perform flow cone test at least once for each truckload of grout, or as otherwise directed by Engineer.” Specification §316333-2.04A(6)(c) provides that “A baroid type mud balance may be utilized in lieu of flow cone testing . . . .” Will it be acceptable for the grout supplier to perform either the flow cone test or mud balance on a representative sample of the grout at their facility/laboratory to provide data to verify the specified consistency or specific gravity of the grout?

A40. Similar to other concrete/grout testing activities, the grout testing shall be performed at the site (immediately prior to placement of the grout). Also, typical practice is for the grout to be mixed on-site; therefore, this testing is not feasible at the supplier’s facility.

Q41. Detail 2 on Sheet S-304 appears to indicate 3 (Three) micro-piles along gridline 4.8 between gridlines .5A and .8A. However the labeling in this detail indicates only 2 (Two) micro-piles labeled as F-3 and F-4.

Are there 2 or 3 micro-piles along the referenced gridline? If there are only 2 micro-piles along gridline 4.8, could you clarify which of the locations should be F-3 and F-4?

A41. Will be addressed in forthcoming amendment.

Q42. Detail MPH-2 on Sheet S-301 provides the termination details for this micro-pile condition consisting of a plate secured with nuts. Detail MPH-1 on Sheet S-301 does not indicate any requirements for a plate or nuts at/for this micro-pile condition. Could you clarify if “a” termination will be required at the MPH-1 locations?

If a termination is required at the MPH-1 locations, could you provide the applicable details?

A42. At MPH-1 provide embedment of micropile reinforcement as shown. Uplift plate and nuts are not required for

MPH-1.

Q43. Section 00110, 2.4.1.7 says for Exhibit D we should use a notice to proceed (NTP) on or about 07 Oct 2014 and Exhibit D says we should se 01 Oct 2015 as the estimated NTP. Please confirm the estimated NTP.

A43. Use the date of 07 Oct 2014 for the estimated Notice to Proceed.

Q44. Section 013216 CPM Schedule states that we must use Microsoft Project for our scheduling software. Would it be possible for us to use Primavera P3/P6 in lieu of Microsoft Project?

A44. Yes Primavera P3/P6 in lieu of Microsoft Project is acceptable.

Dated 21 Aug 2015

Q45. Detail 2/AN-801 indicates weather proof electrical outlet but it's not shown in the electrical drawings.

Please verify what panel and circuit number it should be connected to.

A45. Will be addressed in Addendum #02.

Q46. Please refer to spec 321313, 2.04, C, 5 and attached inquiry from Hawaiian Cement. Please confirm if the design team will accept the waiver of air entrained concrete due to no freeze thaw exposure.

A46. The spec section, 32 13 13 Concrete Pavement for Parking Lots, referenced is for the site concrete pavement like the concrete ramps up to the overhead doors, etc. The external concrete will require air entrainment as specified. While the state of Hawaii does not encounter freezing temperatures on Oahu, the pavements do encounter thermal changes and the air entrainment adds durability. Relative to the finishing concerns, please see specifications and drawings – exterior concrete receives broom finish – not a trowel finish. The building slab concrete floor is a different specification section by the Structural team (33 00 00), and the structural drawings. The building floor slab does not have air entraimment.

Dated 24 Aug 2015

Q47. Door schedule assigns hardware set #'s to doors but 087100 specs does not include a finish hardware schedule with corresponding sets. Please see attached for reference.

Please advise of finish hardware schedule for bidding purposes.

A47. Hardware spec is 087050. There is no 087100 specification in project. Please see section 087050 for all door hardware requirements.

Q48. We understand that the deadline for RFIs has passed. However due to the complex nature of this project and a bid proposal that requires the pricing of several options, we would like to request your consideration to extend the proposal due date by at least one (1) week. We've also received several similar requests from our subcontractors/suppliers and therefore hope you will consider and grant such an extension.

A48. The government is unable to grant this request, due to fiscal year requirements. The due date for the receipt of proposals remains unchanged.

Q49. We would also like to request your consideration to extend the due time to the normally experienced bidding time of 2 p.m. The current time of 10 a.m. does not allow much time to incorporate subcontractor/supplier pricing that is normally received the morning of the bid. Furthermore, as delivery of the proposal is required to Kapolei, a 10 a.m. due time exposes Offerors to morning traffic. As ultimately a 10 a.m. due time lessens the time an Offeror has to put together a competitive proposal, please consider a 2 p.m. due time.

A49. The government is unable to grant this request, due to fiscal year end requirements. The due time for the receipt of proposals remains unchanged.
