SECTION I: CLARIFICATIONS • N/A SECTION II: QUESTIONS 1. Question: Is there a minimum project size or a minimum dollar amount for each project? Example: If the contractor is asked to mobilize to demolish a small quantity, say 20sf of asphalt, it would be at an astronomical unit cost for the contractor, and the stated unit pricing would not work. Possibly you should add a pay item to mobilize to each project site so that the contractor doesn't have to worry about getting really small assignments. Answer: There is no minimum project size or minimum dollar amount. Mobilization fees must be included in the unit price, with the understanding most jobs are within a mile of each other. Please Note: Small jobs should not be awarded under this contract. The City has the capability to handle small jobs in-house. This solicitation is for projects too large for the City to handle with in-house equipment. 2. Question: Is the city or the contractor responsible for the required material testing for the subject ITB? Typically, QA/QC testing is performed, i.e., densities proctors for earthwork and such. Answer: Not Required 3. Question: Is there a budget for Bid 24-21-ITB Earthwork Services, and is there any current bid tabs? Answer: This is a new solicitation. We do not have existing bid tabulations. This solicitation will result in multiple purchase orders for projects. We do not have a budget for the entire solicitation. 4. Question: Why does this bid require a general contractor's license? I don't have that license, but we have numerous contracts with this same line of work. Answer: That was an oversight. Section 1.9.3 has been removed from the bid. Please see the revised Section 1.9 MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS in Section III.
