Please provide full-size drawings, drawings released on SAM are 8.5 x 11 . Answer: Bring this up to the Contracting Officers attention Requesting an extension due to lack of full size drawings. Answer: Bring this up to the Contracting Officers attention Full size drawings sent along with work around below STEP 1 Contractors can open the drawings and select Print as a PDF STEP 2  Click Page Set-up in lower left corner and select the size they want to plot. Save it and plot the larger PDF On plan page AS-801-AD there are three openings which state the existing doors are to be removed, stored, cleaned and reinstalled. These are units #78-1, 84 and 85. That same comment states to provide new hardware. May I assume the frames will also be ETR and only price the hardware? Please confirm and thank you again. Answer: Price Only the Hardware I am looking at the door types on plan page AS-801-AD and they have referenced some which do not exist. If you look at the door type column several of the units are listed as 2F or 2T. These codes do not relate to the door elevations. Please reach out to the architect and send answers as soon as possible, so I may keep moving ahead on this one. Thanks! Answer: 2F should be Metal; 2T should be Wood DISREGARD THIS ANSWER Specifically, Door Type 2 appears to correspond to a consistent door elevation (narrow lite vision panel), with the suffix F or T potentially indicating glazing type (fire-rated vs. tempered), rather than door material. Additionally, the current clarification results in changes to door materials that may not align with the indicated fire ratings, hardware groups, and typical use conditions. Answer: F or T indicates glazing type (fire-rated vs. tempered) use Door Schedule for Door Material Amendment 6; Attachment VA+SYRACUSE+SPS++Drawings++2 Drawing PD-101.1 marked Reference Only Use Addendum Sheet No addendum sheet found. Please provide. Answer: PD-101.1 was mistakenly Marked as an Addendum Sheet should have been PD-101.2. New drawings attached Amendment 6:  Found in attachment VA+SYRACUSE+SPS++Drawings++2 AND VA+SYRACUSE+SPS++Drawings++4 Drawing PD-101.2 is included twice in documents. The work shown is different. Neither is marked Reference Only Use Addendum Sheet . It is unclear what to bid. Please clarify. Answer: PD-101.2 is an Addendum drawing which was included. The two attached drawings clarify this issue. Related to question 23 above Multiple contractors have expressed confusion and concern with drawings marked Reference Only Use Addendum Sheet . Can the VA clarify why they are included if they are being replaced with other drawings? Answer: There were changes required b. If we are not to use them, can they be removed and one complete drawing set provided to avoid confusion? Answer: No, they are for reference. Amendment 6 RFI Answer 17: The Cart Washer does not get moved and has to be protected in place by Contractors bidding this Project. Contractors bidding this Project are required to repair the leaking drain under the Cart Washer which requires the disconnect and removal of some piping and components which are in the Scope of this Project by Contractors bidding this Project. The response provided does not adequately define or quantify the required scope of work for bidding purposes under this firm fixed-price contract. Additional information is required to establish an accurate takeoff and pricing, including, but not limited to: piping material type, pipe size, estimated linear footage of repair/replacement, existing drain conditions, required demolition limits, and clarification as to whether the existing drain is to be repaired partially or replaced in its entirety. Detailed drawings and/or a clearly defined scope of work should be provided. Answer: From the Solicitation Narrative, The (3) drains for the pass thru Sterilizers and the (1) drain for the existing Cart Washer need to be repaired to stop them from leaking. This includes work on the floor below in the generator room and electrical substation area. Minimum scope of work includes: a. Hand chipping around each drain perimeter b. Cleaning surrounding area c. Resealing existing drain to existing concrete d. Replacing drain piping/fittings that are rotted and leaking e. Replacing drain if it is damaged during repairs Adding the following additional information: f. Contractor to include 10 LF of drain piping , one elbow, one coupling for each drain g. VA will remove all Cart Washer ancillary equipment to expose drain area for repairs Question 5: Drawing set VA+SYRACUSE+SPS++Drawings++4 identifies Fellenzer Engineering LLP as the Engineer of Record; however, the revised/addendum sheets do not appear to bear an engineer s stamp/signature. The previous sheets marked Reference Only Use Addendum Sheet contain the Engineer of Record stamp, but the corresponding replacement sheets in Drawing Set ++4 do not. Please clarify whether the revised/addendum sheets were intentionally issued without an Engineer of Record stamp and confirm that these drawings were reviewed and approved for bidding and construction use. Answer: The VA reserves the right to modify drawings as they see fit. All changes were made prior to this solicitation, and with any drawing that was changed to PE stamp was removed as a result. Additionally, the VA has the right to issue drawings or projects without stamped drawings It is not within the Contractors right to question if the drawings have been reviewed or approved.","origin":"extract"},"notice_type":{"code":"o","label":"Solicitation"},"schema_version":1,"solicitation_number":"36C24226B0029","product_service_code":"Z1DA"},{"dates":{"posted":"2026-05-21","response_deadline":{"raw":"2026-05-26T14:00:00-04:00","utc":"2026-05-26T18:00:00Z","date":"2026-05-26","time":"14:00:00","utc_offset_seconds":-14400}},"links":{"sam":"https://sam.gov/workspace/contract/opp/54b9f89a33234835bb67d7b5c810fabd/view"},"naics":{"codes":["236220"],"primary":"236220"},"title":"Z1DA--NRM-CONST | 528A7-19-720 | Repair SPS Deficiencies","agency":{"office":{"code":"36C242","name":"242-NETWORK CONTRACT OFFICE 02 (36C242)"},"subtier":{"code":"3600","name":"VETERANS AFFAIRS, DEPARTMENT OF"},"department":{"code":"036","name":"VETERANS AFFAIRS, DEPARTMENT OF"},"office_address":{"zip":"12208","city":"ALBANY","state":"NY","country":"USA"},"organization_type":"OFFICE"},"status":{"active":false,"archive_date":"2026-06-25","archive_type":"auto_custom"},"contacts":[{"name":"Terry Fraser","role":"primary","email":"terry.fraser@va.gov","title":"Contract Specialist"}],"base_type":{"code":"o","label":"Solicitation"},"notice_id":"54b9f89a33234835bb67d7b5c810fabd","provenance":{"extract":{"url":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/falextracts/Contract%20Opportunities/Archived%20Data/FY2026_archived_opportunities.csv","etag":"\"d9374b90a938e9923d910594731b7b57-106\"","fetched_at":"2026-09-16T16:22:53.920682Z","row_sha256":"51cd4c9e36c05b4456a5a36e03ed17b3646e5c31578c23313990344d1face4bf","last_modified":"2026-09-13T14:50:39Z"},"updated_at":"2026-09-16T16:22:53.920682Z","first_seen_at":"2026-09-16T16:22:53.920682Z"},"description":{"text":"Bid Update Solicitation: 36C24226B0029/Project: 528A7-19-720 Repair SPS Deficiencies Answered By: Emery P.
