This document provides responses to questions raised by potential bidders regarding the "Repair and Renovate Dorm 742" opportunity.

• Stair Handrails/Guardrails: All three stairwells will have handrails and guardrails demolished and replaced per design.
• Irrigation System: The existing irrigation system is operational and does not need replacement. However, the drip system around the building needs to be removed, and any damaged portions during construction must be repaired.
• Disturbed Areas: Areas between landscape curbs and concrete sidewalks that experience heavy traffic during construction will require new sod or seeds to be established.
• Furniture: The General Contractor is responsible for disassembling, storing (off-base), and re-assembling all existing furnishings. An inventory list is provided.
• Staging Area: A site plan is attached indicating a possible staging/laydown area and job trailer location. Personnel parking is available in a large lot across the street.
• Gypsum Ceilings: Details for gypsum ceiling infill and soffit/bulkhead are provided on sheet A-510.
• Bathroom Wall Tile: New backerboard is required behind the wall tile in bathrooms where existing tile is removed and replaced.
• WWP-1 vs. FRP-1: References to WWP-1 should be replaced with FRP-1.
• Door Schedule/Tags: Doors missing tags are updated in Bid Addendum 1. Other doors are labeled on enlarged plans. Suite doors are repeated for each suite occurrence.
• Fire Alarm/Mass Notification: The fire alarm control unit must be Potter brand, as required by Malmstrom Air Force Base standards.
• Staging/Laydown Areas: A site plan is attached for possible staging/laydown areas and job trailer locations.
• Project Schedule: The use of UFGS specification with an Army/USACE preparing activity is confirmed for the project schedule.

• Wi-Fi Access Points: These belong to Boingo Wireless and need to be re-installed in the same locations if removed.
• Mass Notification System: Equipment related to the legacy mass notification system will not serve a purpose once the new system is installed and can be removed.
• Cabinet Construction: Specifications indicate face frame cabinets with solid ends and frame fronts, but also mention frameless concealed European hinges, creating a contradiction. Further clarification is needed.
• Shades: The Government will not supply shades; the Contractor must supply them.
• Project Value: The Revolutionary FAR Overhaul (RFO) initiative has removed the mandatory requirement to disclose the magnitude of construction projects.

• Landscaping Removal: Landscaping (shrubs, rocks, ground cover, misc. planting) between the building perimeter and sidewalk can be removed. Existing trees are to remain and be protected.
• Interior Stairs: Stairs are to receive new finishes per the Finish Plan; they are not new construction.
• Ceiling Tiles: Lay-in ceiling tiles are specified per the drawings.
