***Update 31 January. See responses to questions below. RFP due 14 February 2022 at 5:00PM Eastern.***

• Will there be a staging area for materials? Yes laydown area will be provided for materials in the contractor laydown are behind WH60.
• can we pull all the barrier plates at once or only half of them to leave at least 2 lanes open? Due to the current police manning  they will not be able to support all barriers being down for an extended timeframe. We cannot close the entire North Gate for this project, lanes that are not having work performed will need to be open. Depending on the timeframe we are talking security may be able to support all of them removed at one time for sand blasting and painting as long as steel plates were installed so the lanes could remain open. Preferred method would be two lanes closed at one time on the main vehicle gate and one at each of the two sets for the truck gate or possibly one set at the truck gate and re-route the truck traffic through the other set.
• what type of barricading would you require once we remove the barrier plates?  Road/Lane closed barricade w/sign for lane closure. Barrels, Cones , Tape  and etc.… for the work area. Safety plan will have to be provided for approval prior to start of work.
• The frames that are embedded in concrete in the roadway, will they need to be sandblasted if they are galvanized? We wouldn't want to remove the galvanization with sandblasting. Frames are to be sandblasted and painted as well.
• Please confirm the number of barrier arms?  5 Total

***Update 27 January 2022: Updated SOW attached. RFP extended through 14 February 2022 at 5:00PM Eastern.***

***The fiber between the control panels and the HPU’s will be installed by the contractor. It’s approximately 400’ from the guard booths for regular vehicle traffic and approximately 135’-150’ feet for the truck entrance. The government will not run this fiber since it doesn’t touch the government network and is an independent system.***

***Update: Alternate NAICS acceptable on proposal if needed to satisfy the terms of the SOW.***

***As part of this project all of the barrier control panels shall be replaced with new so that their will not be any integration issues between new and old panels. All of the new control panels are to communicate via fiber as per the SOW.***
