Summary of Questions and Clarifications:

Q1. RFSQ Section 2.4.2.3 requires certain Engineers to be listed, including

Mechanical Engineers and Electrical Engineers. May the Design-Build Entity list a

properly licensed Contractor in lieu of an Engineer for the design phase and also

the construction phase? For example, instead of an Electrical Engineer, may we

list a CSLB licensed C-10 Electrical Contractor?

A1: The RFSQ specifically requires that a qualified licensed Mechanical and Electrical

Engineer be listed to ensure compliance with the professional design requirements and

responsibilities. A C-10 contractor can perform or oversee the construction and installation

during construction phase.

Q2. RFSQ Section 1.6 states, “It is anticipated that, except as restricted by

applicable law, the District will reserve the right to require the Design-Builder to

conduct a competitive bidding process for all elements of the construction work.”

May the Design-Build entity list properly licensed contractors in its Design-Build

Team for design and construction? For example, may we identify in our proposal

a CSLB Licensed C-10 Electrical Contractor for Electrical design and

construction?

A2. The DBE can list properly licensed subcontractors or consultants for design and

construction services. The DBE will be responsible for ensuring that all subcontractors and

consultants are properly licensed for the project and the scope of work (e.g., a CSLB

Licensed C-10 Electrical Contractor for electrical design and construction).

Honor, Integrity, Cooperation & Professionalism

Q3. The RFSQ specifies that Exhibit G (Questionnaire) must be completed for “the

DBE and all DBE Members and/or DBE Participants, as applicable”.

a) When the Design-Build Entity (DBE) itself is the General Contractor, is Exhibit

G required only for the General Contractor (as the DBE), or must it also be

completed by the Architect?

b) Are DBE Participants such as the surveyor, structural engineer, geotechnical

engineer, civil, mechanical, and electrical engineers also required to complete

Exhibit G individually?

A3. a) If the Architect is identified as a member of the DBE General Contractor, they do not

have to complete Exhibit G (Questionnaire). Only the DBE General Contractor is required

to complete Exhibit G (Questionnaire).

b) If all participants are identified in the proposal Only the DBE General Contractor is

required to complete Exhibit G (Questionnaire).

Honor, Integrity, Cooperation & Professionalism
