Box 1988 <br />Santa Ana, California 92702 <br />vww.santa-ana.oM <br />ADDENDUM NO.1 <br />RFP NO. 18-071 <br />ENERGY LIGHTING RETROFIT AT THE CORPORATE YARD <br />DATE DUE: AUGUST 21, 2018,4:00 PM <br />QUESTIONS &ANSWERS <br />CITY MANAGER <br />Raul Godinez II <br />CITY ATTORNEY <br />Sonia R. Carvalho <br />CLERK OF THE COUNCIL <br />Maria D. Huizar <br />1. The RFP states that zone sensors cannot be battery powered. They must be hardwired. Will <br />you accept sensors that are powered by ambient light? Yes, so long as the technology is <br />commercially proven and warrantied. Also, please ensure that specifications are provided <br />2. Will you accept wall switches that are wireless and powered by kinetic energy? Yes, you must <br />ensure that specifications are provided. <br />3. SoCal Edison no longer offers much in terms of customized rebates for lighting. But they do <br />have a Midstream Point of Purchase program where the rebate is paid directly to the distributor <br />and the price is reduced on the invoice by the amount of the rebate. For this rebate program, <br />there is no application or Trade Pro requirement with SCE. If the proposal is priced with the <br />Midstream Point of Purchase program, must the contractor still become a Trade Pro? The <br />Midstream program is NOT and will not be leveraged for this project, the customized incentive <br />program is being utilized. Contractors MUST be TradePros. <br />4. The energy section of the California building code (Title 24, Part 6) does not require occupancy <br />sensors or daylight harvesting, if there is a 50% reduction in rated power in office spaces and <br />35% in other types of space. Is Santa Ana voluntarily going above code with daylight <br />harvesting and occupancy sensors? You can get great energy savings at a much lower cost <br />without the controls. As a rule of thumb, controls save 20%. But in this case, that 20% is <br />achieved on the LED energy consumption. If you save 50% with the LEDs, the incremental <br />savings generated by the controls is only 10% of your original lighting. This is because the new <br />lighting is half of the old lighting. 20% of 50% = 10%. That incremental 10% savings is <br />considerably more expensive than the first 50% saved by the LEDs on a per unit of savings <br />basis. If the answer is yes, Santa Ana wants to go above the code requirements, which areas <br />in Appendix A are near windows or sun lights and require daylight harvesting? The improved <br />lighting controls are desired by the city. <br />5. Will an RFP be accepted that doesn't include the "Add Alternate Scope" Advanced Lighting <br />Controls System on page 13 of the RFP? Yes. <br />6. Does this project No.18-071 require a bid bond? This project does not require a bid bond. <br />7. Can you please supply a site plan?
