Addendum 1 is hereby issued to incorporate the following as requirements of the

Invitation for Bid, 050322EC:

• Is the Georgia World Congress Center Authority open to prepayment options to help with the purchasing of raw goods? No

• Is freight dock to dock, where the customer is responsible for offloading? The freight company will be responsible for offloading.

• Is there an anticipated purchase date? Early July 2022

• Is there a specific delivery date needed? Early July 2022

• Can we send bids via email, as we have experienced past delays? No, bids must be received in hard copy form.

• Omega 584 is listed as a chair option, but doesn’t match up with the specifications listed, please advise? Omega should not be listed as an option – the Encore Series

Square Open or equivalent is the requested chair style

• Number of dollies and stacking carts needed, as this can be different per customers available staffing and storage space? Each of our dollies can transport up to 10 chairs at a time and our High Capacity Stacking Carts will hold up to 80 chairs and can be stacked two high. 15 chair dollies

• - Are welded wire gangers, stack bar gangers, or retractable gangers preferred?

Wire ganging; stack bar added

• - There is no place holder on the Bid Form to allow for Base Bid C. Where would you like Base Bid C to be placed? Base bid C has been removed from the bid package.

• -What methodology/testing is used for determining 1,000 lb weight capacity as

BIFMA does not have a weight capacity standard? Weight limits should meet or exceed all applicable tests for ANSI/BIFMA.

• -In Section M, you request samples in Brushed Nickel but do not include it in the specs. Plating is far superior in durability than powder coating and would not be considered equivalents. Correction – samples of proposed chairs in Pewter Sand or Equivalent.

-The specified finish is currently a powdercoat. Which finish should be included?

Pewter sand or equivalent.

• Question 1: Sampling

-will you accept a sample for chair quality only? Yes We have samples in our warehouse to show for quality and construction

-new samples take approximately 4 weeks…would that be acceptable? Yes

• Question 2: Reference Image

-is the chair in the reference image currently being used in the property? If so are you looking for a custom chair to closely match original? No, the reference chair is not currently in use at the GWCC.

-are you looking for us to add upgrades to the chair quality? This will require some additional latitude on design N/A

• I noticed on the new bid for 3600 chairs that a Culp Fandago Fabric and a specific powder coat color were listed. I assumed that those were the colors that was provided on the Savannah chairs that Mity-Lite provided on the last order in

Savannah. If that is the case we can match both of those. Correction, frame color is pewter sand or equivalent.
