The purpose of this amendment is to:

a) Provide answers to Vendors questions.

d) The quote due date is extended by Two (2) days and quotes are now due 09/11/2024 @ 15:00 PT.

e) All other terms and conditions remain unchanged.

Questions:

1. What level of Infection Control Risk Assessment (ICRA) is required? Because it is a non-sterile area outside the ORs, we believe this should be a level 1 or 2 ICRA with terminal cleaning. Please confirm.

· Level 1: Inspection and Non-Invasive Activities or

· Level 2: Small scale, short duration activities which create minimal dust.

This will depend on if dust or debris is created by their work. I think since they're replacing the light, there will be some drilling and minor debris produced, which is category B work. The OR area is a "highest risk" area. So based on this risk matrix, it will be Class II or III.

1. Is the local electrician connecting and disconnecting the surgical lights or does the vendor need to provide an electrical contractor? Contractor shall provide electrician for disconnecting and connecting surgical lights.

1. Can both ORs be shut down at the same time to expedite the installation?

No only one can be shut down at a time

1. What is the brand of equipment/lights to be removed?

AMSO ceiling mounted lights from 1988.
