SECTION SF 30 BLOCK 14 CONTINUATION PAGE
The following items are applicable to this modification:
A0001
a. The purpose of this amendment is to response to questions received:
QUESTION-1: Is the Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO) mentioned in Factor 3 (Prime Contractor’s Prior Experience) in Standard Form 1449 includes Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO), Korea Midland Power Co., Ltd (KOMIPO), Korea South East Power Co., Ltd (KOSEP), Korea Western Power Co., Ltd (KOWEPO), and Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power Co., Ltd, right?
RESPONSE-1: Yes. The experience gained from the above companies will considered as valid experience. Revised Addendum to FAR 52.212-1 and 2.
QUESTION-2: Do you need experience using the software program for “8.2.19-Computer Maintenance Management System” mentioned in Attachment #1-Performance Work Statement?
RESPONSE-2: Yes. You shall need required experience using software of the CMMS.
QUESTION-3: In the case of a merger or division of a corporation, what documents should be submitted for recognition of past performance. Currently, Dowon Solution is using Doowon Electric Power’s performance in local construction projects. We as if the same can be applied to this bid.
RESPONSE-3: The offeror shall provide a copy of certified evidence documents to prove the company was merged.
QUESTION-4: Under Factor 3 - Prime Contractor's Prior Experience, it says “provide an evidence of recent (calendar Year 2019, 2020, and 2021) experience amounting to over ₩20,000,000,000
(200억원) per year in maintenance and repair of 22.9KV medium and high voltage electrical distribution system which supplied power from the Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO) substations.”
However, KEPCO(한전) doesn’t allow to have more than ₩4,000,000,000(40억원) on maintenance and repair of 22.9KV medium and high voltage electrical distribution system per year. I contacted KEPCO to double check. KEPCO said the sum of multiple contract that adds up cannot be exceed
₩4,000,000,000(40억원) per year.
Therefore, If a Korean electric company requests a company that can perform ₩3,000,000,000(30억원)
~ ₩4,000,000,000(40억원) with 22.9KV maintenance performance from KEPCO per year, only the top companies can participate, and the companies that can participate are really limited.
If you request an annual performance of more than ₩20,000,000,000 (200억원) as a qualification for this solicitation, it is possible to achieve more than ₩20,000,000,000 (200억원), including the performance of KEPCO and maintenance performance received from the Korea Electric Works Association.
If KEPCO's performance is the only basis, it should not exceed ₩4,000,000,000(40억원) per year.
RESPONSE-4: The prior experience of the KEPCO is not the only basis. Offeror shall provide evidence of contracts of KEPCO as well as other than KEPCO contracts. Also, offeror shall provide an evidence of recent (calendar Year 2019, 2020, and 2021) experience amounting to over ₩10,000,000,000
(100억원), not ₩20,000,000,000 (200억원). The ceiling amount is revised to ₩10,000,000,000
(100억원). Accordingly, revised Addendum to FAR 52.212-1 & 2.
QUESTION-5: Para. 8.2.1.5.3 Bi-Annually please clarify the meaning of “Bi-Annually”. Is it “Semi- Annually” or “Every two years”?
RESPONSE-5: The bi-annually stands for every two years, and semi-annually is for every six months.
QUESTION-6: Para 8.2.1.5.3 TABLE #5 – PROTECTIVE RELAY AND COORDINATION, A. It seems that monthly basis of the “Review and verify” of protective relay and coordination study could be quite frequent. Please clarify what kind of output from the monthly basis study would be expected by Government.
B. Please clarify whether the latest SKM file will be provided after contract.
RESPONSE-6: The Government requires that the offeror review and verify protective relays, such as operational function of elements, send/receive communications, and others applicable. The subject RFP is for trade-off, and the Government anticipates offeror provide best performance and deliverables to the Government as much as possible. However, the terminology SKM is not common language to the Government, and SKM is not applicable language to the PWS.
QUESTION-7: Para 8.2.7 ITM and Repair of Pad Mounted Switchgears in Closed Loop Feeders A thru Z (CLIN X004), Please confirm whether the works listed on “8.2.7.3. Minimum functional requirement of the preventive maintenance requirement” should be included in the scope of work. If yes, please provide the equipment quantities with relevant drawings.
RESPONSE-7: Yes. The paragraph 8.2.7.3 is applicable to the switch stations such as CLIN X001 thru X003. Those functional requirements of the preventive maintenance are similar to the paragraph
8.2.4.1. Therefore, the paragraph 8.2.7.3 (Minimum functional requirement of the preventive maintenance requirement) is substituted as below.
1 Check ambient temperature and adequacy of responding filling pressure of the SF6 gas
2 Check of SF6 by-product and impurity content (SO2 and moisture, if compartments are not equipped with absorbers)
3 Locate any SF6 leakages, in case of alarms since the last inspection
4 Record and check operating times of circuit breakers (from auxiliary switches) Exercise the circuit breakers and switching devices
5 Check of correct operation of pressure switches, in the case of hydraulic mechanism use
6 Check of the proper alignment and operation of position indicators
7 Check of control and alarm functions.
8 Check leakage of gas in an area free of other substances, including pressure gauge, fill valve, saft seals, bushings, viewing windows and electrical feedthroughs.
9 Check control system of motor actuators, controls, fuses, fault indicators, voltage sensors, interrupter controls, low pressure warning devices.
QUESTION-8: Para 8.2.16 Update Single Line Diagram Please confirm whether the latest SLD documents with the AutoCAD files will be provided by the Government after the contract.
RESPONSE-8: Yes. The Government will provide AutoCAD files.
QUESTION-9: Para 8.2.19 Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS)
A. The provision of CMMS software should be included in the scope. If management of CMMS is also under contractor’s scope, please specify the role of contractor for CMMS in detail.
B. Please instruct us where should this portion of cost be included (Refer to W91QVN-22-R-0015 page 3 to 33)
RESPONSE-9: The CMMS is commonly used facility management tool. There is no separate CLIN to account CMMS. You can include this cost in the CLINs of ITM and Minor Repair. Also, the operating cost of the CMMS should be accounted during the full performance period.
QUESTION-10: Regarding the 14 closed loops stated in the PWS. Para 8.2.7.2, we would like you to clarify the contractor's work scope about the closed loop systems & SCADA. Because we understand that the normalization of the closed loop systems and SCADA operation is still pending.
RESPONSE-10: The normalization of the closed loop system and SCADA do not impact to the contract performance. PMSs connected to the closed loop system still require to system check studies listed in the paragraph during the contract performance.
QUESTION-11: What does the SIZE STANDARD $8,000,000 mentioned in SOLICITATION/CONTRACT/ORDER FOR COMMERCIAL ITEMS (STANDARD FORM 1449) mean:
Does this mean annual sales amount?
RESPONSE-11: This size standard is not applied to vendor’s qualification or capability at all. This is internal system matter.
QUESTION-12:
1. Items of previous experience of the proposer
- More than 20,000,000,000 won per year in maintenance and repair of 22.9KV high pressure and high pressure. Evidence of recent experience in 2019, 2020 and 2021 must be submitted.
2. Experience in distribution system supplying electricity from substations of Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO)
- The experience of the subcontractor cannot be replaced by the experience of the primary contractor (subcontractor performance cannot be recognized)
Based on the above performance, it is considered that the bid proposal is not possible.
1. The 22.9KV high voltage repair and maintenance bid by Korea Electric Power Corporation is a two-year contract. All materials are borne by the ordering party, and the maintenance company proceeds with the contract with labor costs.
2. Under the best contract terms, it is about 2,000,000,000 won to 3,000,000,000 won per year.
3. Due to the regional quota system of the Korea Electric Power Corporation, the bidding support company has multiple bids participation is not possible. Therefore, annual performance of KRW 20,000,000,000 won is impossible.
RESPONSE-12: The evaluation of prior experience will not be limited to the contract award from KEPCO. As the 22.9KV medium and high voltage electrical distribution is supply from the KEPCO substation, any contract awards to maintenance and repair of 22.9KV medium and high voltage exterior electrical work will be considered as valid prior experience. Examples of high voltage works in facilities include large industrial complex, factories, colleges, R&D facilities, and other high power demanding facilities. Also, the Government changed the annual sales amount from ₩20 Billion to ₩10 Billion per year.
