The amendment provides a comprehensive question and answer document and extends the RFQ due date to 12:00 PM CST on 5 August 2025.

The contract requires the contractor to handle full uninstallation, shipping, and repair, with bird proofing necessary and the current paint being non-lead free. The solicitation is set aside for 100% small businesses with a $19.0M size standard, and the period of performance is 60 days after receipt of order.
