Crane Hoisting Services

***Solicitation Amendment  Am0002**************************************************************************
QUESTION & ANSWER:
Q1. This is to be placed inside of a building? If so, what is the ceiling /clearance height and access dimensions?

A1. No.  Pre-fabricated building is currently sitting on a trailer approximately 10-feet to designated location.

Q2. What is the radius?

A2. No space restrictions around the site.

Q3. We are not responsible for transporting the unit to site, correct?

A3. Pre-fabricated building is already near the location.  There is no requirement to transport the building.

Q4. Duration of job for only one day? Plus the mobilization and demobilization of the crane and counterweights if needed.

A4. Duration of job should be no more than one day.

Q5. Estimated date of performance?

A5. Performance Period is no more than 7 days after award.

Q6. 6. The Crane Hoist Services PWS rev1, attached, initially identifies a requirement for a 150 ton crane, see page 1, paragraph 1.2.

Then on page 10, paragraphs 5.1 & 5.1.3, requires a 175 ton crane?

Please advise if HIANG will be making the final decision for the crane size based on the limited information provided? i.e. size and weight of the prefab building: 44' x 15' x 10', wt = 65,000 lbs. There is nothing which indicates what Lift Radius will be needed, hence crane size seems undetermined.

Do you have a plan view of the lay-down area for this prefab building.

A6. Size and weight of the prefab building is 44' x 15' x 10', wt = approximately 65,000 lbs.

The Hawaii National Guard does not have crane hoist personnel to make such decision or answer your questions.

Our requirement is to move the pre-fab building to the designated location. 

Ensure to comply with all federal requirements, to include, but not be limited to (USACE Engineering Manual) EM 385-1-1, most current version, Section 16 Load Handling Equipment.
