About this file
This is an Addendum 2 Questions and Answers document for the Ingham Intermediate School District's Mobile Lab Trailers Invitation to Bid, dated March 18, 2020. The bid solicitation seeks four mobile lab trailers with specific design and equipment requirements. Key specifications clarified in this addendum include acceptance of steel frames and rust-proofed steel trailers as alternatives to aluminum provided they meet or exceed minimum requirements, confirmation that wall and ceiling insulation is not required, and verification that black coin rubber flooring may be adhered to plywood with moisture barrier underlayment. The document also addresses electrical specifications, confirming that while a 60-amp load center is called out in the specifications, bidders are responsible for noting any alternatives they deem impractical or non-functional. Additional clarifications address cabinet configurations, with aluminum L-base cabinets featuring mill finish tops and doors in the straight base portion with generator compartments in the L-shaped section.
The addendum provides further technical specifications for HVAC and electrical components, confirming that an air conditioning unit with heat strip rated at 13,500 BTU is required with a wall thermostat preferred over manual interior controls. A 5.5kW Onan gas generator is specified for both preparation and installation rather than preparation only. Wheel chocks are clarified as being for trailer tires and wheels, and scene lights are defined as LED 12V units measuring 9 inches by 7 inches for exterior surface mounting. The document was submitted by Carolyn Jones, Ingham ISD Purchasing Specialist, indicating the point of contact for bidder inquiries.
