    This document addresses contractor questions regarding RFP 618-24-115, "Replace Coil MAU #3 and #38." Key topics include access to Building 70's penthouse, confirming a freight elevator to level 4 with specific dimensions (96" door opening, 138" depth, 120" height inside), and the availability of a gantry for hoisting material to the penthouse (108" x 84" hatch, 3,000 lbs limit). It also discusses potential crane work for coil delivery, noting the need for thorough review due to safety concerns and the absence of a dedicated access hatch for cranes. Temporary removal of louvers or blank-off panels is suggested as a potential solution, possibly requiring off-hours work. PIV badging is required for onsite staff, with no fees for the card itself, but a $50 charge for unreturned badges. The process can take two months. The document also directs contractors to attachments in solicitation 36C26326B0002 for plans and specs and provides access to the pre-bid site walk sign-in sheet.
