VENDOR QUESTIONS ANSWERED

Question 1:
Is this tender coming back to life? I am asking because one of my customers just reached out to me to quote this to them. Then I thought I should look to see if it was posted on Sam’s. I see that it is and you are the person of contact but it shows as inactive. Clarification to Question 1:
The SAM Number is N6449826Q52480004. That is the notice ID on SAM.GOV. I do not know what you mean by solicitation number. Response to Clarification Request to Question 1:
I will be providing a quote for this.
Can you confirm if a quote is all that is required at this time or do you require us to complete these forms? Answer to Response to Clarification Request to Question 1: You need to complete the form 1449 and follow all the requirements laid out in Section C (Statement of Work) and more specifically Section 3.0 REQUIREMENTS. Question 2:
This morning I reviewed SAM & PIEE to see if the answers to questions were posted, but I am not yet seeing them. In the interim, we have been preparing our quote with the information provided and look forward to competing for this project. We would greatly appreciate any information or guidance when the answers to the questions below are posted. Answer 2:
NSWCPD is working to answer the questions you asked of us. We need a little more time. Question 3:
Length/depth: Section 3.2 gives height and width (24" H x 36" W and 36" H x 42" W) but no length or top depth. What top length and depth are required for each size? Section C, SOW 3.2, pages 5-6. Is the 36" and 42" "wide" the length of the top beam? What front-to-back depth do you need for the top and the base? Answer 3:
The 36" and 42” “width” measurement is the length of the top beam. Top beam depth is 12”.

Question 4:
Is there an existing drawing, sketch, or photo of the work horses currently used at NFPC that we can reference? Answer 4:

SEE DIAGRAM ABOVE

Question 5:
Load rating: is the 150,000 lbs. per unit capacity required with the load on the casters, or only when the unit is lowered and resting on its frame or legs? Answer 5:
Casters are for positioning unloaded workhorses for setup and storage, not for load. Question 6:
Casters: are there required caster sizes, wheel material, or floor conditions we should design around? Is locking required? Answer 6:
Locking casters are required. Rough and uneven concrete and wood floors. Question 7:
Load application: will the load be a point load, or spread evenly across the full steel top? As per SOW.
