7. Under PWS B.2 PRICE/COST SCHEDULE, only one line Labor Category under Construction Management and Project Management services, please confirm that we are pricing only Construction Management and Project Management services?Â

Please refer to the response to question one (1).

8. Does the offeror provide separate level of efforts for Construction Management & Project Management?

Please refer to the response to question one (1).

9. I have read Solicitation 36C26122Q0743 and I am not sure how to complete the price component. It appears to me that the VA is asking for technical qualifications for CM/PM services and the pricing component will be determined as each task order is published. Is this correct?

Not exactly, see response to question one (1). And the revised quantity and unit in the price/cost schedule. All task issue should involve one or more of the labor categories in response one (1).

10. The provided Price/Cost Schedule does not outline the anticipated number of hours for each contract year. Does DVA intend for proposers to suggest roles, hours and rates for each? If so, it is likely that submissions from proposers will vary greatly and not be reasonably comparable. Please advise if there is a level of effort (in hours) for one or more roles that should be used for pricing to ensure relative standardization across proposers.

The quantity and unit in the Price/cost schedule has been modified and the estimated hour/year is expected to be 4,160. As for the roles/labor categories see question number one (1).

11. Please confirm that it is expected for the Project Manager to provide commissioning oversight and management only and that commissioning activities will be performed by the VA or a third-party entity.

How the contractor chooses to execute the work is up to them; i.e. whether they use a PM on commissioning work or not.

However, it is expected that we will utilize this contract to provide the VA with Commissioning Agent services. For most up to date specifications, please see the VA TIL at https://www.cfm.va.gov/til/.
