This notice invites interested contractors to attend and participate in an Industry Day Meeting on April 5th 2007. This is NOT a Request for Proposal. The purpose of our Industry Day is to gather input from interested and experienced contractors for the purpose of improving our planned Emergency Levee Repair solicitation. To facilitate open communication between the Government and contractors, we are ex tending an invitation for contractors to come in individually and meet with a small panel of Government personnel. This panel will include representatives from our Contracting, Engineering, Construction and Emergency Management divisions. Industry Day mee tings with each interested contractor will be scheduled for approximately one hour each. Please telephone Mr. Eric M. Samuels to schedule a time to come in and meet. Eric can be reached at (916) 557-5367. Any early comments/input you wish to provide prio r to your meeting time are appreciated. You may send your comments to the email addresses below. The government is also interested in any useful ideas and input you wish to provide to help improve our proposed solicitation/contract. We have provided draft Technical Specifications, Standard Drawings, District Boundary Map, and Pricing Schedule for you r review on FedTeds website. The following are some of the questions and concerns we are soliciting input: a) How should the contract boundaries be defined. This determination may directly affect whether we award one, two, or three contracts for Emergency Levee Repair. We are currently considering the following four possible options for the geographic area of coverage and number of contract awards within the Sacramento District in the state of California: - One contract covering all river basins and the delta. (1 contract) - One contract for the Sacramento river basin, one contract for the San Joaquin river basin and one contract for the Delta Island region. (3 contracts) - One contract for north of I-80 and one contract for south of I-80 (2 contracts) - One contract for work north of I-80 and Hwy 50, one contract for the Delta area South of I-80 & Hwy 50 and north of I-580, I-205 & Hwy 120) and one contract for work South of I-580, I-205 & Hwy 120. (3 contracts) b) Are the items included in the pricing schedule adequate to cover expected emergency levee repair work? Is the unit of measure for each item appropriate? c) Are there any comments or suggestions regarding the draft plans and specifications? d) Is an economic price adjustment suggested considering the 5-year total maximum contract period, or does the contractor have sufficient confidence that they can adequately price line items for the 4 option years? If you are unavailable to come in and meet with us, we still encourage you to provide any written comments or suggestions on our approach to the upcoming solicitation.
