Itemized Proposal
Remove existing Itemized Proposal and replace with attached Itemized
Proposal.
Item No. 2 – Questions
1.
Question – Does Indiana Code provision I.C 5-16-8-2, which seems to
require use of domestic sourcing of steel, apply to this project?
Response – That provision of the Indiana code will apply to this project.
Bidders are therefore advised that their bid should reflect the
requirements for domestic steel. If the successful bidder wishes to pursue
an exemption, they would do so post bid. However, the pursuit of this
exemption would not be cause for any time extension for the Work.
2.
Question – Can shoring be placed on both sides of the atrium? Will the
IAA allow this additional shoring to be anticipated in the preparation of
the base bid for this project?
Response – The shoring pattern presently included within the bidding
documents represents the best approach, in the opinion of the Airport, to
maximize the public use of the garage and the parking revenue to the
Airport during construction. Since the use of shoring on both sides of the
atrium would have significant impact to the availability of handicap
parking spaces, use of valet parking and an additional reduction of the
number of revenue producing spaces in the garage, the savings would
need to be substantial for the Airport to consider this option. An
additional alternate will be added to the bid form, where prospective
bidders can identify the savings that can be accrued through the added
shoring on both sides of the atrium to allow the Airport to evaluate the
advisability of this approach.
3.
Question – Can voluntary alternates be submitted with the bid for
consideration by the Owner in determining contract award?
Response – Should a bidder wish to submit a voluntary alternate that is
their privilege to do so. However, the Owner would have sole discretion
on whether to pursue a review of this alternate as part of the
bidding/contract award process and whether to include in the bid
evaluation.
4.
Question – Specification Section 051200.2.5.D.9 refers to AESS
(Architecturally Exposed Structural Steel) in regards to welding and weld
appearances.
Page 4 of 7
5.
Response – Delete Specification Section 051200.2.5.D.9. AESS is not
applicable.
6.
Question – Specifications 013000 and 013150 describe number of days
for review of submittal.
Response –10 working days shall be maintained for the review of each
submittal and each subsequent re-submittal that may be required.
Submittals shall be coordinated with other work/trades. IAA will work
with the selected bidder to expedite submittal review if possible, but it is
not guaranteed.
7.
Question – Per revised SP-13 language in Addendum #2 all references to
the Canopy Replacement Trade Contractor responsibility in regards to
erecting, moving and dismantling any safety/visual screening (fence) for
this project have been deleted. Please confirm the General Trades
Contractor is now responsible to provide all safety/visual screening
(fence) for this entire Canopy Replacement Trade Contractor scope of
work including within garage structure, for all phases on the 5th level of
garage and outside the garage at the perimeter of the crane and steel
delivery, shake-out, and assembly bolt-up area as shown on Site Logistics
Plans SK#02 and SK#03.
Response – Item has be clarified in revised SP-13 attached; See Item 1.1
in this Addendum No.3.
8.
Question – For the contractor’s Financial Statement is Year End 2014
information acceptable or is more current information required? Please
define what format of computer produced financial statement is
acceptable.
Response – Financial Statement covering calendar year 2014 is
acceptable. The financial statement can be in a format that is generally
accepted by standard accounting practices.
9.
Question – BP-5.1 states to remove this sheet and insert itemized
proposal - Are we to provide an itemized proposal or lump sum proposal?
Response – The bidders are to submit their bid plus alternates as
indicated on the bid form included within this Addendum No.3.
Page 5 of 7
10.
Question – BP-10: Diverse Vendor Statement of Intent to Perform Work.
Please confirm this document is not executed and included with initial bid
proposal, but is only required after notice of low qualified offer and intent
to award.
Response – The bidders are to submit the Diverse Vendor Statement with
their bid indicating their intention to subcontract work to XBE contractors
in the indicated percentages of the proposed contract amount. The low
bidder will be asked to confirm these percentages or to submit
documentation showing their good faith efforts should the indicated
percentages be less the goals included within the bid documents as part
of the bid award process.
11.
Question – Please confirm if a contractor “No Bids” alternate 3 & 4 that
their Bid will still be accepted by the IAA.
Response – The IAA is very interested in quickly evaluating the bids
submitted due to the tight schedule for bid award. Not submitting an
alternate would not cause a bid to be rejected, but it would be at the
IAA’s discretion whether to evaluate bids of other bidders that did submit
alternate bids for potential shoring changes in determining the most
responsive and responsible bid.
12.
Question – Please confirm that there are no locations which require
cutting into existing pipe steel.
Response – The design intent is such that the existing tube members are
not required to be cut into for new structural steel connections, this is
indicated on details provided on the Drawings. However, this method may
be determined to be necessary by the contractor for their connection
design. Existing connections plates may need to be
cut/removed/modified.
13.
Question – Please provide a detail showing how the “NEW SUPPORT
TRUSSES” connect to existing column trees.
Response – This is shown in several locations on the Drawings. Specific
examples are Details 4, 5, and 6 on S-501. Also Refer to Details 5 and 6
on S-106.
14.
Question – Please clarify whether pipe members have been checked for
punching shear already, or whether the pipe capacities must be checked
as part of the connection design
Page 6 of 7
Response – Punching shear of pipe members has not been checked. This
item (amongst other design checks) are part of the performance design
of connections to be provided by the Contractor.
15.
Question – Requesting comprehensive loading to estimate the fabric-tosteel connections.
Response – Design of the canopy fabric (including connections of it to the
structural steel) are to be provided by the Contractor as noted in Project
Specifications. References to the Codes are provided in the Project
Specifications. Those Codes describe and provide all the loading criteria,
loading combinations, and loading effects that are required for
consideration in design.
16.
Question – Please confirm if the IAA will provide the successful bidder a
copy “for reference only” of the original canopy design calculations and
steel shop drawings.
Response – The IAA will attempt to provide “for reference only”
calculations and shop drawings that can still be located to the successful
bidder. However, the IAA does not warrant that these document are
readily available and the successful bidder wouldn’t have to produce a
new independent loading study for shop drawing preparation.
Item No. 3 – Clarifications
1.
Item 6 in Addendum #2 was titled “SP 21- CRANING REQUIREMENTS”.
However, it was correctly noted in the description that followed and in the
attached SPs sent with Addendum No.2 as “EXISTING LIGHTNING
DISSIPATION SYSTEM TESTING”. It is currently correct as shown in the
attached Special Provisions included in this Addendum No.3.

notification as the apparent low bidder of the bidder’s good faith efforts in attempting to achieve the stated project
goals. The written response shall provide evidence identifying the bidder’s good faith efforts and all affirmative
actions taken to achieve the stated supplier diversity goal. A bid that fails to meet these requirements will be
considered nonresponsive.
In determining whether a bidder has made good faith efforts, the Owner will look not only at the different kinds of
efforts that the bidder has made, but also the quantity and intensity of these efforts. The following lists examples
of the types of good faith efforts that may be considered: (Note - this list is not intended to be exhaustive.) Also,
please see attached federal regulations describing “good faith efforts”.
1) Whether the bidder attended any pre-solicitation or pre-bid meetings that were scheduled by the recipient
to inform diverse vendors of contracting and subcontracting opportunities;
2) Whether the bidder made reasonable efforts to contact and allow reasonable time for diverse vendors to
respond in a timely manner.
3) Whether the bidder provided documentation of attempts to ready, willing, and able diverse vendors who
expressed a desire to work on any of the pay items of the project.
4) Whether the bidder followed up on the initial solicitations of interest by contacting the diverse vendors to
determine with certainty whether the diverse vendors were interested in participating in the project.
5) Whether the diverse vendor was provided the opportunity to analyze the project documents/project
specifications and submit quotations prior to award. Information provided by the bidder to the diverse
vendors shall include, at a minimum, the contract names, pay items, quantities for those pay items to be
subcontracted, and the date the subcontract bid is desired.
6) Whether the bidder selected portions of the work to be performed by the diverse vendor in order to
increase the likelihood of meeting the diverse vendor goals (including, where appropriate, breaking down
the project into economically feasible units to facilitate diverse vendor participation).
7) Whether the bidder provided the interested diverse vendors with complete information about plans,
specifications, and requirements of the contract. Attempts should be made to have plans available or to
notify the diverse vendors of the location of available plans. The bidder shall notify the diverse vendors
of revisions to the project.

8) Whether the bidder effectively used the services of available minority community organizations; minority
contractors' groups; local, state and federal minority business assistance offices; and other organizations
that provide assistance in the recruitment and placement of diverse vendors.
9) Whether the bidder advertised in general circulation, trade association, and minority-focused media
concerning contracting and subcontracting opportunities.
Good Faith Efforts for Extra Work
When extra work is added to a contract with a supplier diversity goal, the bidder is encouraged to hire or make
good faith efforts to hire diverse vendor subcontractor(s) to perform significant extra work. Extra work is defined
as new pay items added to a project that result in a new contracting opportunity not reasonable related to existing
pay items being performed by the contractor or a subcontractor.
When significant extra work related to existing pay items being performed by a diverse vendor subcontractor is
added to a contract with a diverse vendor goal, the contractor shall offer that same diverse vendor subcontractor
the opportunity to perform the extra work whether or not the existing pay items are counted toward the supplier
diversity goal. If the diverse vendor subcontractor is unable to perform the extra work, the contractor shall hire or
make good faith efforts to hire an alternate diverse vendor subcontractor to perform the work.
When significant extra work related to existing pay items being performed by a non-diverse vendor subcontractor
is added to a contract with a supplier diversity goal, the non-diverse vendor subcontractor may perform the extra
work. If the non-diverse vendor subcontractor is unable to perform the extra work, the contractor may selfperform the extra work. If the contractor chooses not to self-perform the extra work, the contractor shall hire or
make good faith efforts to hire a diverse vendor firm to perform the work.
Reporting is done in conjunction with a Contractor’s monthly pay application. MBE/WBE/VBE firms shall be
identified in the Contractor’s schedule of values. MBE/WBE/VBE firms pay application/invoices are required as
back up documentation for the Contractor’s pay application. The Contractor is also required to submit waivers of
lien from each MBE/WBE/VBE firm. See attached pay application sample.

CONSTRUCTION PHASING OF WORK IN GARAGE
Since the Airport parking garage will remain open and active during the construction period for the Canopy
Replacement Work, it is imperative the Work be accomplished in phases such that traffic patterns in and out of
the garage, traffic movement on the individual levels of the garage and traffic access to the rental car areas be
maintained throughout the duration of the project. To that end, the canopy and the new supplemental steel framing
shall be installed in three phases consistent with the canopy sectionalizing details on the project drawings and the
phasing plans included within the bidding documents. It is the Airport’s desire the canopy Work be constructed in
a southwest to northeast direction. Work in each phase shall be sufficiently completed to allow other trades to
safely follow and work in the current phase area before moving on to the next phase. Further, Work of this
contract shall not be prosecuted in more than two phases at any one time without prior approval and written
consent of the Owner’s Construction Manager to allow needed safety measures, vehicle traffic and pedestrian
traffic to be accommodated. It is the intent of the documents that the Work be prosecuted in such a manner that
four stair towers and two elevators be available for public usage at all times except in very, limited short term
instances where prior Owner approval has been granted to address project safety concerns that could cause this
requirement to be changed on a case by case basis.
The Owner intends to award two additional separate contracts for work within the Parking Garage wherein those
Contractors will be working in concert with the Work of this contract. One will be for the installation of a glass
enclosure wall around the atrium opening at the fifth floor of the garage and the second package will be a general
trades package that will include all other work necessary to complete the project including concrete work,
installation of the catwalk at the enclosure wall, miscellaneous painting not associated with the new steel framing,
safety partitions, temporary signage, general cleaning and other activities not directly associated with the canopy
and enclosure wall installations.
While, the work of the other two contracts at the 5th level of the garage shall follow the erection of the steel
framing, the Work of this package shall be scheduled to reflect the coordination required to allow all parties
access to work areas in a reasonable and orderly fashion. This Contractor will work with the Owner’s
Construction Manger to develop a coordinated schedule that includes the activities of the three separate Trade
Contracts showing activities with durations, key milestones and interface points. Activities are to be established in
sufficient detail that each activity duration does not exceed a maximum of 15 calendar days in total duration.
SP-13 CONSTRUCTION OF TEMPORARY SAFETY BARRIERS
These Special Provisions are intended to supplement and not replace the provisions of GP 70-08.
The installation of the canopy replacement steel and fabric and the addition of a glass enclosure wall will require
the use of safety/visual screening barriers around the work areas at the 5th level and at the potential shoring
locations on other floors of the garage to keep pedestrians and vehicles from entering into areas that might present
unsafe conditions. Additionally, barriers will be erected at the first through fourth floors to keep the public from
entering the atrium area to provide safety relief from the construction activities above. A vehicle movement
tunnel, indicated by a designation of a GT-2 type barrier, will also be provided by the General Trades Contractor
as indicated on the documents. The vehicle tunnel shall have a minimum height clearance of eight feet six inches
(8’6”) and a minimum horizontal clearance of fifteen feet (15’) for the length of the vehicular tunnel. Scaffolding
and overhead protection shall be constructed to meet applicable safety regulations and standards. The sides of the
vehicle tunnel shall a safety barrier to keep pedestrian traffic for accessing the atrium area.
The General Trades Contractor will be responsible to erect, move and dismantle these safety/visual screening
barriers within the garage structure as indicated on the bidding plans as GT-1 and GT-2 type barriers. All
construction activities must be coordinated with the General Trades contractor to provide timely notification and
coordination of the schedule needs regarding the safety/visual screening barrier erection, relocation and removal.
The safety/visual barriers, indicated as a GT-1 type Barrier on the documents, shall be a minimum of six feet in
height, provide a continuous safety barrier to pedestrian access, shall include indicated access points for egress to
existing elevators and stairwells and shall be installed to withstand normal wind conditions that can be expected to
Rev: December 22, 2015
SP-10
occur in the construction areas. The barriers may not be attached directly to the concrete slabs/decks. Temporary
weighting methods are to be used to keep the barriers in place and upright. The barriers may be constructed using
either a chain link fence structure with approved mesh screening and appropriate access points or a solid material
barrier, e.g. Plywood sheets. If a solid barrier is constructed, it will be required to be painted and have screening
material with Airport graphics mounted on exterior or have the Airport graphics be added through the use of paint
and stencils.
This Contractor will also provide weather protection over the existing escalators and moving sidewalks in the
garage as part of this Special Provision. Protection to consist of plastic sheets installed over a temporary wooden
frame to minimize the effects of rain and dust to the equipment. The framing is to be installed such that the
escalators and moving sidewalks are not accessible to pedestrian traffic, but can be run on an intermittent basis to
allow operating parts to be oiled and maintained
All other safety/visual screening barriers that are required exclusively for the Work of the Canopy Replacement
Contractor are to be provided by the Canopy Replacement Contractor. Safety/screening perimeters around
material staging and fabrication areas shall be comprised of 6 foot high chain link fencing with mesh screening
attached as indicated upon the plans. Mesh screening is to be provided similar to a Series 111 printed screening
material as shown on FenceScreen.com. See attached sketch “SK#05” for photo of typical level of custom
graphics that may be required on the mesh screening. Also see attached sketch “SK#04” regarding mesh screening
required on temporary construction safety fencing to be installed during canopy fabric replacement. See Sketches
“SK#16” through “SK#24” for locations of safety/visual barriers, information is provided for reference only.
The General Trades Contractor shall include in their bid the cost to provide 500 orange movable pylons, LooperTube Delineator Post with Reflector Bands, and 4,000 feet of plastic chain material to connect the orange pylons
together to form traffic control barriers and directional delineation for temporary traffic patterns in the garage
during construction. The General Trades Contractor is also to include an allowance of 200 labor hours to install
the pylon and chain barriers in the garage and to relocate when directed. Location of the temporary traffic lanes
shall be determined by the Airport Parking Garage manager.

Add the following paragraph between paragraphs two and three: It is understood that the Owner intends to award
two additional separate contracts for work at the garage where those Contractors will be working in concert with
the Work of this contract. One will be for the installation of a glass enclosure wall around the atrium opening at
the fifth floor of the garage and the second package will be a general trades package that will include all other
work necessary to complete the project including concrete work, installation of the catwalk at the enclosure wall,
miscellaneous painting not associated with the new steel framing, safety partitions, temporary signage, general
cleaning and other activities not directly associated with the canopy and enclosure wall installation operations.
SP-15 MAINTENANCE OF TRAFFIC IN GARAGE DURING CONSTRUCTION
The activities of the Contractor shall be coordinated through the Owner’s Construction Manager to ensure that
access by vehicular traffic to the entry and exit points of each level of the garage, as well as traffic flows between
the two parking areas on both sides of the atrium, will be maintained throughout the construction period except
for those times where temporary, short duration closures are coordinated in advance and put into effect to ensure
safety of the public below lifting areas during steel erection.
SP-16 LIMITS ON WORKING HOURS
While the Owner supports the use of effective and efficient work processes, the parking garage is a 24 hour
operation and, as such, requires close coordination with the Owner and the Construction Manager to perform
some operations when they would be the least disruptive to the garage operations. Most construction activities,
Rev: December 22, 2015
SP-11
with the specific exception of the craning of steel and other large materials, can be performed during normal
daytime working hours. However, crane lifts of the steel trusses and steel members shall be performed during the
hours of 1:00 am until 4:00 am. Other material lifts or concrete pumping activities that may require closure of
some areas of the garage for safety reasons. The Contractor must coordinate any closures with the Construction
Manager at least 72 hours in advance to allow proper coordination with the Parking Garage operation.
SP-17 CRANING REQUIREMENTS
The responsibility for the means and methods associated with the erection of the steel trusses, joists and
miscellaneous steel members being added to the canopy structure rests solely with the Prime Contractor for this
package, including all actions necessary to ensure the safety of the public, Airport employees and construction
personnel. The Contractor is required to locate cranes on the ground at the southwest and/or northeast areas
outside the garage building limits, as indicated on the site logistic plans. However, in the development of the
erection plans, there are certain limitations the Owner has established which the Contractor must take into account
when developing those plans. These include the following:
1. The Contractor recognizes that all construction related erecting activities will be taking place in or around
an operating garage and the Contractor is responsible to work with the Airport Management and Garage
Management to maintain a safe environment during their Work activities.
2. Any shoring/shoring towers, bridging, plates or pads the erector needs to support any loading from
smaller mobile pieces of equipment on the top level of the garage is to be limited to the level between the
4th and 5th levels of the garage for the base bid pricing (see SP-19 Alternates for additional information)
3. Any lifting of materials, other than the steel trusses as defined in item SP-16_Craning_Requirements,
over the speed ramp, Ground Transportation Center and top parking deck of the garage, shall be
coordinated a minimum of 72 hours in advance with the Owner’s Construction Manager, allowing for
advance notice of the closure of the Parking Garage speed ramp and other affected areas of the garage
during the lifting operation.
4. The Contractor will be responsible to prepare temporary crane pads on the ground on either side of the
garage, temporary access roads for material delivery or crane movement, safety personnel and flagmen to
control traffic movement near the crane location and at effected areas of the garage and restoration of any
area disturbed by the placement of the crane, material deliveries, crane movement and crane dismantling
and removal. Contractors are to assume a soil bearing capacity of 4,000 psf for design of crane pads,
temporary roads, etc. See attached sketches “SK#14” and “SK#15” for existing site utilities.
5. The Contractor shall be responsible to coordinate final location of the crane pad with the existing site
utilities to prevent damage or loss of use to the existing utilities.
6. Any cranes used on site are to meet FAA requirements for crane operations at an active Airport including
any special flagging, lights and weather condition constraints. A special crane use permit will be required
from the Airport Engineering Department showing FAA approval of proposed craning size and locations
prior to cranes being erected on site (see SP-8 above).
