PAGES).
F. POINT OF CONTACT: The Point of Contact (POC) for this Amendment is Ericka Hillard at (312) 846‐5378;
email: ericka.d.hillard@usace.army.mil.
USACE’S RESPONSES TO CONTRACTOR’S INQUIRES FOLLOW:
QUESTION 1
Section 3.1: Please clarify and provide list of barrier buildings.
USACE Response 1:
Paragraph 3.1 is has been deleted. The requirements for janitorial services is identified in paragraph 6.1 of the Revised Scope of Work.
QUESTION 2
Section 4.2.3: Can the contractor place a storage unit on-site to store equipment?
USACE Response 2:
No a storage unit will not be allowed to be stored on-site. Storage of equipment will be limited to the first floor Pump Room in Permanent Barrier Building. See changes included in the Revised Scope of Work, Section 4.2.3.
QUESTION 3
Section 9.2: What is the current service provider for the fire alarm monitoring?
USACE Response 3:
Fire alarm monitoring is currently not being monitored. Barrier IIA Building, Power Quality Building, and Barrier IIB Building were previously monitored by TYCO with notification to Romeoville Fire Department.
QUESTION 4
Section 9.3: It states that “the contractor will be responsible for certification, inspection, testing and maintenance of the barrier fire alarm systems. Please define maintenance and provide frequency.
USACE Response 4:
Certification, inspection, testing and maintenance will be provided annually. Any non-routine maintenance or repairs will be performed under the cost reimbursable line item included in the Revised Bid Schedule and as defined in Section 10 of the Revised Scope of Work.
QUESTION 5
Section 9.6: What is the size of the waste water tank or vessel?
USACE Response 5:
There are 2 tanks. 3000 gallon tank in the parking lot. And a 250 gallon tank accessed from the east bank road. See changes to Section 9.6 of the Revised Scope of Work.
QUESTION 6
The wording of the requirements leave some room for interpretation. There is only one mention of a task that needs to be completed daily, which is to clean the pump room sink. Every other task uses terms similar to 'dirt and dust free appearance' or 'uniform in appearance'. With this terminology, I would normally quote based on what tasks must be handled daily and what remaining tasks could be rotated through the work week, while maintaining a daily spot check of all areas and then spot cleaning as necessary. In other words, the buildings windows for example, would be cleaned once a week rather than daily. However, if there were a few windows that needed attention on a day they were not scheduled to be cleaned, we would clean those particular windows needing attention anyway. Just want to be on the same page. If the expectation is for every task to be completed 100% on a daily basis, we will certainly do so.
USACE Response 6:
Section 6.1 (last sentence) specifies that the contractor will perform interior custodial housekeeping duties 5 days per week no earlier that 5pm. Sections 6 ,7, and 8 also identify what duties the contractor will be required to perform, 5-days per week.
QUESTION 7
Next is in regards to supplies on site. In the pre-bid meeting, it was verbally conveyed to me that we could leave cleaning product on site however, the document mentions that no chemicals or supplies are to be left on site. If I need to bring supplies and tools in every day, that would not be a problem. My concern is with the main corridor on level 1 of the permanent barrier, from the overhead door to the lobby area. This is a very large floor area which will most likely require the use of a floor scrubbing machine, especially if the expectation is for it to be done daily. It is not feasible to deliver and remove a machine like this on a daily basis. Can a machine like this be left on site or must it be removed? And is the expectation for this corridor to in fact be mopped five days a week?
USACE Response 7:
Storage of equipment will be limited to the first floor Pump Room in Permanent Barrier Building. See changes to the Revised Scope of Work, Section 4.2.3. If the floor scrubber will not fit in the first floor pump room we can adjust the location of that piece of equipment to allow it to stay on site.
The corridor will be cleaned 5-days per week.
QUESTION 8
Last is in regards to insurance requirements. The documents mention a certificate of insurance will be provided, specifying amounts of coverage, but does not mention requirements from me as the contractor. What amounts of coverage are required for me to provide?
USACE Response 8:
See the Revised Scope of Work, Section 1: General Requirements at paragraph 1.3, Certificate of Insurance, of insurance coverage requirements.
QUESTION 9
It was expressed during the site visit that it may be possible to obtain copies of the previous years testing reports for the existing Fire Alarm and Fire Suppression Systems.
Can you please advise?
USACE Response 9:
Previous testing reports for the existing systems are provided by this Amendment – see the Revised Scope of Work.
