Question: Does each individual Hoist/Crane listed in the TE (totaling 479 units) require a detailed MONTHLY component inspection (which would require the contractor to access each unit utilizing a man lift to physically inspect all systems and component each month?

Answer: YES, each individual Hoist/Crane requires inspections according with the frequency schedule. Technical Exhibit will be updated to reflect schedule frequency.

If not are all 479 individual units inspected on a quarterly, semiannual or annual rotation basis (i.e. quarterly- all 479 units inspected once every 90 days, semi-annual- all 479 units inspected once every 180 days, annually- all 479 units inspected once annually)?

Answer: All 479 units is required to be inspected according with the frequency schedule. Technical Exhibit will be updated to reflect schedule frequency.

LOAD TESTING of Hoist/Cranes, Dock Levelers. The solicitation does not address load testing?

Question: Does this solicitation require annual load testing of Hoists/Cranes and or Dock Levelers? If so is this considered part of Para 2. General Requirements and considered part of the Fixed Firm Pricing structure or will this be a separate line item?

Answer: Answer: This Solicitation does not require an annual load testing of hoists/cranes and or Dock levelers.

However Load Testing is required for any new, repaired or altered crane or hoist prior to being put back into use.

YES, this requirement is part of the Firm Fixed Pricing Structure.

Answer: YES, Load Testing is required for any new, repaired or altered crane or hoist prior to being put back into use.

Item 1: Repairs under $1,500.00

Section 2. General Requirements “…All repairs (parts and labor) under $1,500.00 are covered in the monthly unit price as a part of maintenance and repairs on cranes, hoist, scales, dock levelers, and vehicle lifts equipment as described in Section 1.3. The Contractor is not responsible for repairs needed due to Non-Fair Wear and Tear

(NFWT).”

Answer: YES, the contractor shall assure parts availability for continues operations of contracted equipment.

3) Item 2: Inspection Intervals and Reporting Paragraph 3.1.1 “The Contractor shall perform daily, monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, and annual inspections according to scheduled requirements found in Technical Exhibit.” The Technical Exhibit does not identify the required inspection schedule (cycle) for each individual hoist/crane.

Question: Should the Technical Exhibit display the desired inspection cycle for each individual unit?

Example:

Noun Bldg. Inspection Cycle

B Crane 2-3456 Monthly, Annual

M Crane 3-1634 Monthly, Quarterly

According to OSHA 1910.179(j)(1)(ii)(a) Frequent inspections are defined as daily to monthly intervals.

Industry standards and OEM mandates require the operator perform a daily operational checklist prior to use.

Answer: YES, each individual Hoist/Crane requires daily – monthly intervals inspections. Technical Exhibit will be updated to reflect schedule frequency.

4) Paragraph 3.1.1 “Contractor shall perform daily inspections.”

Question: Does DPW require the contractor to perform a “daily” frequent inspection on each individual hoist/crane listed with the Technical Exhibit? If so, is DPW aware that this would require approximately 10 full-time, qualified service technicians to execute this requirement?

Answer: YES, each individual Hoist/Crane requires daily - monthly intervals inspections. Technical Exhibit will be updated to reflect monthly frequency.

Answer: YES, inspections are mandatory and require a formal record; Technical Exhibit will be updated to reflect schedule frequency.

If so, would the solicitation then read: “The contractor will perform a comprehensive frequent (monthly) inspection on all hoists/cranes listed with the Technical Exhibit each calendar month and provide the completed inspection report to the COR.”

Answer: YES. Technical Exhibit will be updated.

According to OSHA1910.179(j)(1)(ii)(b) Periodic inspections are defined as 1- to 12-month intervals. DPW can set the intervals between 1 to 12 months as long as the periodic inspection does not exceed 12 months. Industry and normal military operating standards require one periodic “annual” inspection every 12 months, except for idle cranes.

Question: Does DPW intend for all hoists/cranes listed with the Technical Exhibit to receive periodic inspections on a quarterly, semi-annual, and annual basis or one periodic (annual) inspection every 12 months?

Answer: YES, each individual Hoist/Crane requires 1 to 12 monthly intervals inspections. Technical Exhibit will be updated to reflect monthly frequency.

6) Item 4: On-site Staging Contractor Office/Equipment Laydown Area:

Question: Will the DPW provide a 175’ x 175’ area (preferably concrete) with electrical and phone connections for the contractor to maintain an on-site office, storage container, and staging area for manlifts, vehicles, forklifts, and test weights?

Answer: The Government will not provide the Contractor with adequate administrative office space and a space to store supplies and equipment, however, at the Government’s discretion and convenience, office space and storage space may be provided on a space-available basis. Office space should be consistent with Army standards for administrative areas, should be 300 square feet or greater in size, and should be environmentally controlled. Office space will have access to restrooms and drinking water. Mechanical rooms or communication rooms will not be used as Contractor office space. The Government may provide a safe and adequate area for storage of materials and equipment on a space availability basis.

7) Item 5: Tagging and Identification

Question: Does DPW require the contractor to place an inspection tag on the pendant/controller of each hoist/crane to display the most recent periodic (annual) inspection date and the date of the next annual inspection? This will allow any operator to know definitively that the unit is in compliance and able to be used.

Answer: Tagging is not require in this solicitation and either by 29 CFR 1910.179 overhead and gantry cranes.

8) Revised PWS 3.1.1 states that inspections shall be performed daily, monthly, quarterly, semi-annual and annually according to scheduled requirements found in Technical Exhibit. The Technical Exhibit does not list the frequency for each crane. Our question is price is based on how many times a unit is PM/inspected, will all 479 Hoist & Cranes be done once a month?

Answer: Answer: YES, each individual Hoist/Crane requires inspections according with the frequency schedule.

Technical Exhibit will be updated to reflect schedule frequency. PM and inspection will not be required for all 479 Hoist/Cranes monthly. Frequency schedule will depend on the nature of the critical components and its uses.

9) Scales per 3.2 are to be done semi-annually but Item No 0002 states monthly for DLA Scales and there are only (3) units on the list, how would you price that? Same with 3.3 Dock Levelers are to be done annually along w/Lifts and that is all lump in with the Crane & Hoist on Item # 0001 monthly, again how is that to be priced.

Answer: Firm fixed semi-annually, Firm Fixed monthly for DLA, No.0002 DLA has a separate CLIN structure because this agency is external to DPW.

Answer: #0001 Monthly cost is base on the services required for scales semi-annually, dock levelers and lifts and cranes/hoist.

10) Submission Instructions states NOT Authorized paper proposals or e-mail / fax transmission, that offer must be submit through FBO website – there is no Electronic Response Tab on this solicitation for submittal, will that be added to the solicitation?

The announcement on FBO.gov will be changed to allow for electronic submission.

*** Please note: All periods of performance for base and additional option years expressed in the CLIN verbage shall be adjusted according to the date of contract award.
