Question 1
Posted: 8/24/2023
Question: Given that section D, Item 2 - "Proposal Security (Bond or Cash)" is not applicable, is section D, Item 3 - "Notarized Declaration Letter from Surety" still applicable?
Response: See Addenda No. 1 for a response to this question.
Question 2
Posted: 8/24/2023
Question: If section D, Item 3 "Notarized Declaration Letter from Surety" is applicable, the RFP states the letter will confirm the offerors' ability to obtain a bond for no less, than 100% of the proposal price; considering that emergency mitigation projects will vary significantly in price based on the scope of work and we cannot predict what the total price of any project will eb at the time of the proposal, what dollar amount would you like to see on this letter?
Response: See Addenda No. 1 for a response to this question.
Question 3
Posted: 8/24/2023
Question: The Mitigation Contractor's Statement of Qualifications form 3.a. asks for an original contract amount and original number of days to complete. It is industry standard that emergency mitigation work is billed upon completion of work, and is typically performed as quickly as possible, therefore mitigation projects do not have an original contract dollar amount or an original number of days to compete negotiated prior to start of work. These sections on the form are not applicable to emergency mitigation jobs. How would you like us to address this when filling out reference 3.a. Experience?
