1. 1.5 BIDDER QUALIFICATIONS... "(b) Documentation to prove that the dredge and attendant plant are available and not already obligated for the performance of other work which would delay commencement of dredging. If the proposed dredge and attendant plant are not currently performing work or obligated under a contract, the bidder must submit a statement that the dredge and attendant plant can commence dredging within the time required in the specifications. If the proposed dredge and attendant plant are currently performing work or obligated under a contract, the bidder must submit approved release documentation along with a statement that the dredge and attendant plant can commence dredging within the time required in the specifications. The approved release documentation must be issued by the entity currently utilizing the dredge and attendant plant, and the documentation must clearly indicate the approved release date of the dredge and attendant plant from its current work commitment.

Contractors typically have multiple contracts in place that have varying performance windows. These performance windows often overlap and the contractor is responsible for managing the performance and completion of their contracts. The below requirement seems unreasonable to request as the other entity is not privy to the New Orleans District contract requirements and do not have a responsibility to the New Orleans District. The Contractor is the sole entity responsible for meeting the contractual requirements and are subject to the repercussions if the contractual terms are not met. While the below may be warranted on a rapid response contract the early award nature of the subject contract does not warrant this level of documentation.

Can the USACE please remove the requirement to provide documentation as the submittal of a bid acknowledges the availability and expectation that the Contractor will meet the contractual requirements?

Response: No, the documentation requirement will not be removed as it is necessary for a determination of whether the bidder meets the definitive responsibility criteria stated in Section 00 10 00, Paragraph 1.5 entitled "Bidder Qualifications".
