QUESTION #1: Does this new line item list replace the original SOW previously listed on the original SOW? There are many items not listed in the original SOW and new model numbers listed. ANSWER: CBP requests the items listed on the line item list; however, the SOW should still be referenced. QUESTION # 2: A) There is not enough information about the Emergency Generator part of the request for bid. We need additional information so we will be able to quote the precise size and type generator. Please provide the following information: 1) What are the life safety systems and ?other essential loads? shall the generator supply power to? Please specify (fire alarm, emergency lights, heaters, computers, chargers and others). We need to know the total Amps Consumptions to determine the emergency generator size. 2) Are all systems requiring 110 Volts? 3) Are all life safety and other systems presently connected internally to an existing Emergency Power Panel or an additional electrical labor required to re-wire. 4) What is the preferred generator?s fuel (gasoline, oil or gas)? We understand that the exact location of the emergency generator is not determined yet, and it is subject to Landlord approval and to other considerations of the occupied space being contained within a multi-tenant public building. The exact location and the distance from the emergency generator to the Distribution Panel are significant since we have to take into consideration asphalts work and piping if required.B) The Lobby Door is not a bullet resist door. Please advise if it needed to be replaced. C) Please advise if Emergency Generator and Bullet Resist Requirements can be quoted separately from the Security System Requirement ANSWER: As stated in the SOW the emergency generator system shall provide power for the life safety/security systems and other essential loads (emergency lights, Computers and telephone) upon failure of the normal electrical power service for a minimum of 72 hours continuous operation prior to re-fueling. The size of the generator (gas) will be determined by the technician. All systems do require 110 volts.
