RFI as of 27 Aug 2016

1. Where can I find the option 5 replace 9 window photos that shows dimensions that was mentioned in RFI response to question #2? Photos upload to FBO.

2. The attached document shows photos of the two types of windows in the building. 1 is of the dark bronze storefronts that are roughly 125" x 125".

The other shows the double window units that are roughly 66" x 124". It was my understanding from the walk through that 2 of the large storefront openings are base bid items and the double window openings are the option windows, 7 doubles and 2 singles. The store front Bronze aluminum windows will not be replaced and are for example for replacement windows only along with product information provided on the previous RFI. The two 66” X 124” windows shown in the attached PDF are the base bid windows to be replaced. The option 5 window replacement locations are shown in the attached revised window option detail from drawing A-101 the dimensions are shown in the photo option 5 attachment of package.

The RFI response to question #3 seems to contradict that thought and has 2 of the 66" H windows to be replaced as base bid. Is this accurate? Correct the two base bid windows as shown in attached PDF are 66”X124”
