What the notice says
The amendment states that all interested offerors will need a NICET 3 onsite during all inspections. This is not normal for our industry. A NICET 3 is an engineering/director level person who would not normally be a technical / on-site level performer. Can you change the wording so that it is either NICET level 2, or maybe adjust it to say the ability to conference or consult a NICET level 3, if needed? That way many interested bidders can respond to this, as per the industry level standards. -The VA will accept a current� NICET Level II certification, in the applicable discipline, in lieu of … (show all)
the specified� NICET Level III certification� for all locations under this requirement. This substitution applies to personnel performing inspection and testing of electronic fire alarm systems and devices including smoke and heat detectors and water-based fire protection systems and devices interfacing with electronic fire alarm systems, including waterflow and valve-tamper switches. All other solicitation requirements remain unchanged. When does the VA plan to award this contract? It says a Dec 15 start date but is asking to have everything tested by Dec 31. This is not enough time to test the whole hospital. All interested offerors would need a full 30 days. If a new amendment could address this by saying that that is a target date and not an exact, or something to that effect, it would be much appreciated. -The period of performance for the base contract period shall begin on the date of award and continue for 1 year thereafter. Each option period, if exercised, shall begin immediately upon expiration of the preceding period of performance.
