This addendum is and does become a part of the RFQ 19-11-01 Professional Engineering and Architectural Services for Pedestrian Bridge with Park Elements Across A1A at 174TH ST. CCNA. Questions & Answers: Q1. NOTE on Page 11: The City of Sunny Isles, Contract Number and Title must be on each Certificate of Insurance (COI). The City of Sunny Isles Beach must be shown as additional insured. Our insurance company doesn’t typically issue COIs containing this specific information until contract negotiations. Would the City accept a letter from our insurance company stating that our firm has the ability to comply 100% with your specific request or a sample insurance certificate at this time in lieu of the requirement stated above? If so, we would provide a COI that names the City as additional insured and includes The City of Sunny Isles, Contract Number and Title during contract negotiations. A1. Proof of insurance will suffice prior to contract award. Q2. Page 19, 2nd paragraph: Firm shall be pre-qualified with FDOT in the following classes of work by the by the time the agreement is fully executed: Work Group 3. Highway Design Roadway Work Group 4. Highway Design – Bridges Work Group 5. Bridge Inspection Work Group 6. Traffic Engineering & Operations Studies Work Group 7. Traffic Operations Design Work Group 8. Surveying & Mapping Work Group 9. Soil Exploration, Material Testing and Foundations Work Group 14. Architect Work Group 15. Landscape Architect Does the prime “firm” have to be prequalified in ALL work groups themselves? Or can the proposed “team” cover ALL of these work groups? A2. The answer is no the prime firm does not need to be prequalified in all work groups themselves. Sub-consultants can cover work groups however, based on the FHWA 1273 form, the prime contractor shall perform with its own organization contract work amounting to not less than 30 percent (or a greater percentage if specified elsewhere in the contract) of the total original contract price. Q3. Calvin, Giordano & Associates asked at the RFQ conference if they may submit a response to the RFQ, although they prepared the 174th Street Pedestrian Overpass Planning and feasibility studies that was attached to the RFQ. A3. Yes, Calvin, Giordano & Associates is permitted to submit a sealed response to the RFQ for review. Q4. Will the due date of December 20 be changed? A4. The RFQ opening has been extended to Monday, January 13, 2020. Q5. On page 12 of the RFQ it specifies that “The sub-consultant is subject to the same contractual conditions as is the Respondent”, we understand under the contractual conditions but not on the $10 million dollar Professional Liability Insurance requirement, correct? Do sub-consultants also have to carry insurance? A5. It has been confirmed that only the awarded firm has to maintain insurance. The City is not in privity of contract with any sub-consultant. If an issue arises, the City will look to the Consultant’s insurance. Addition to Section 2.9: The insurance policy must remain active from the time of contract award, to 5 years after project completion. 101 City of Sunny Isles | Request for Qualifications No. 19-11-01
