AMENDMENT 0001 Solicitation Number: USZA92-02-Q-0019 Issued: 17 Jul 02 Due: 31 Jul 02 Title: Media Center Modular Office Structure Q1 - The description looks like a free-standing modular office "building". Please clarify. A1 - The walls/stations are going inside an existing office. The overall measurements are attached in the drawing. Please note that the dimensions in the contract are not flexible... we have a lot of equipment that must fit to those dimensions. Q2 - What is the Ceiling Height? A2 - 9 feet Q3 - How many total workstations will the design be for? Q3 - There are two large work stations and two admin areas, one of which is also a small work station. Other areas are for equipment and storage. Q4 - Are these units to be place outdoor or indoor location? A4 ? Indoor Q5 - In reviewing the Description of the Solicitation and the drawings, we could not confirm the electrical requirements. Do all panels have power raceways? A5 - YES Q6 - Do both work areas have power poles? A6 - YES Q7 - Do you have specific locations for electrical receptacles? A7 ? YES Q8 ? The drawings I have seen related to this project do not provide enough detail to proceed with quoting your needs. Could you provide dimensions both in overall plan, i.e. length and width of each modular unit and overall size as well as height is needed - both floor to ceiling and overall height limits. Can you provide detail plans? On your bid site, I only saw two 'images' in plan view and no elevation view. A8 ? These questions are best answered by inviting offerors to a site visit. A site visit is scheduled for 24 July 2002 at 10:00 am EST. Location is building E-2929, HQ USASOC, Fort Bragg, NC.
