CREC reserves the right to accept or reject any or all Proposals or any part thereof, to waive defects in same, to waive technicalities, to accept any Proposal and to award the Contract, to the Bidder that CREC, in its sole discretion, determines to be the most responsive, qualified, and responsible Bidder, which may not be the lowest Bidder.

VII. SCOPE OF SERVICES Upon being awarded the contract, the awarded firm shall provide CREC and the Construction Manager a complete list of all inspectors who will be fulfilling this contract. As a part of this list, the awarded firm must provide any documentation required to verify the inspectors have the required credentials to perform the services requested by this RFP.

Testing services shall be performed as directed by the Construction Manager pursuant to the Statement of Special Inspections. The fee portion of a Bidder’s Proposal shall consist of a Bidder’s completed Special Testing Bid Form (the “Bid Form”), which form is set forth below in Exhibit G, with a rate schedule for all inspections and testing that would be performed on the Project, as well as travel cost (included), and total pricing for the estimated quantities given. Reference the attached Schedule of Special Inspections for testing and other inspection services to be included, as well as the required qualifications for each inspection. Hourly (inclusive of overtime, if any), Half day, and Full Day rates, as well as laboratory testing, equipment, travel costs (to be included in labor rates), and administration costs should be reflected in the fee portion of a Proposal.

This is NOT a lump sum proposal. However, the basis of award will be based on the defined quantity of inspections on the Special Testing Bid Form, multiplied by each Bidder’s unit price. This RFP does not represent a guarantee of a certain volume of work - quantities are estimated and are provided to compare fees only. Testing timing and frequency is to be coordinated by the construction manager for the project (the “Construction Manager”). All personnel working for the Bidder awarded the Contract must sign-in and out with the Construction Manager when on the project site.

Unit prices are to be provided for both laboratory testing and testing time (labor). Labor rates (full day, half day, per hour, etc.) are to be separated by the required qualifications as listed in the Statement of Special Inspections. Hourly rates are to include any anticipated overtime. Labor rates are to include required equipment rental, maintenance, etc., expenses as required to perform the testing as stipulated in the Statement of Special Inspections, as well as travel time. Labor rates are to only include verified time on site, i.e. are to include travel time. All costs associated with each task on the Special Testing Bid Form shall be included with the proposal; no additional compensation for over time or travel expenses will be considered.

The Bidder awarded a Contract will be expected to group tests together in a single visit to the extent practicable given the schedule and the personnel requirements listed in the attached Statement of Special Inspections, and as directed by the Construction Manager. All inspectors performing work on this project are required to already have their qualifications/certifications on file at the Construction Manager’s office prior to arrival. While laboratory analysis may be performed at any qualified facility, and does not need to be performed in-house, no drop-off or pick-up time, or shipping or courier charges, may be billed.

Complete and submit the attached Special Testing Bid Form as your fee portion of your Proposal per the instructions in Section V. Proposal Submittal.

VIII. PAYMENT PROCESS

In order for the entity completing this contract to be paid, all payment requests shall be made utilizing the Payment Application Form, or a form mutually agreed upon by the selected bidder and CREC, included as Exhibit F of this RFP. Complete all the entries horizontally for each service being billed, and attached to the test reports for that day’s work. The jobsite sign-in sheet will be utilized to cross-reference and verify inspector activity on site for each item being billed, therefore it is imperative that all inspectors sign-in and sign out. All laboratory testing charges must be supported by reported test results, and invoices or chain of custody forms if requested.

IX. JOBSITE PROCEDURES

• Sign-In, Sign-Out – the job-site sign-in sheet will be used to confirm dates, times, and tests

being billed. Labor billings not supported by sign-in and sign out will be rejected.

Exhibit F: Notice of RFP Understanding

NOTICE OF RFP UNDERSTANDING CREC Aerospace and Engineering Elementary School CT State Project:

241-0105 MAG/N/PS

Name of Party Certifying the Statements Below: _ (Print or type)

By my initialing the statements below, I certify that in the preparation of this proposal my firm

considered all of the factors noted, and our proposal submitted for the 3/20/2018 deadline are true and

accurate to the best of our abilities. I also certify that I have signatory authority of my firm to confirm

the following statements about the submitted proposal.

(Signature)

Initialed Statements Below Indicate Our Confirmation of Understanding

No plans and specifications will be provided. Inspectors are required to use the latest

submittals “as noted” to conduct their inspections. The General Contractor will grant

electronic access to the most current documents for inspectors. My firm understands that

each inspector dispatched to this site is required to arrive with their own portable device

(e.g. laptop, tablet, etc.) in order to conduct the inspections being requested.

No claims for mileage reimbursement will be considered. The RFP required each bidder

to include any anticipated mileage charges in their values reported on the Special Testing

Bid Form (Exhibit E of this RFP).

No claims for overtime reimbursement will be considered. Every effort will be made to

have inspections conducted during normal business hours, however there may be

occasional inspections required outside of the normal 40 hour work week. The RFP

required each bidder to include any anticipated overtime charges in their values reported

on the Special Testing Bid Form (Exhibit E of this RFP).

Inspectors are required to sign-in/sign-out at the General Contractor trailer. Billing will

be cross referenced with the sign-in log.

Inspectors will not leave the Project Site without first reporting any failures noted during

that visit.

The Special Testing Bid Form (Exhibit D of this RFP) submitted is not meant to be

viewed as the contract amount. The RFP clearly stated that the Special Testing Bid Form

was being used as a vehicle to allow a direct comparison of each proposer’s submittal.

The rates of payment noted on the Special Testing Bid Form will be utilized throughout

the project for the required inspections.

We received and understand the Project Schedule (Exhibit C of the RFP).

We received and understand the Statement of Special Inspections (Exhibit B of the RFP).
