Questions for Chiller

1. The combined synopsis lists the quote closing date with the year 2027 in one place. Please confirm quotes are due November 17, 2026 at 9:00 AM EST.

Answer: The quotes are due on November 17, 2026 at 9:00 AM EST. The changes have been made in the combined synopsis.

2. The cover table shows a January 1, 2027 start, while SOW sections 1.5 and 4.1 show January 7, 2027. Please confirm the base period start date.

Answer: The period of performance does start on January 7, 2027. The SOW is correct and I have made the changes in the combined synopsis.

3. The technical section asks for a signed statement of compliance with certifications "outlined within Attachments," and the rigging and weight-marking requirements cite "Attachment A." Only the combined synopsis is posted. Please post Attachment A and confirm whether any other certifications are required.

Answer: The requirements of “Attachement A” have been incorporated into section Requirements for Lifting of Equipment. When they rewrote the specification, they forgot to take out “Attachment A”.

4. Each system calls for one 60-ton (minimum) chiller. Would two smaller chillers (e.g., 2 x 30-ton) combined in one system be acceptable, or must each system be a single unit?

Answer: Due to space constraints, one 60-ton unit is required
