About this file
This is a Questions and Answers document dated 20 February 2026 responding to bidder inquiries regarding a rack procurement. Payment terms are NET 30 payable upon acceptance. Racks may be shipped disassembled, but the bidder is responsible for either supplying personnel to assemble on site or shipping fully assembled; the government will not assume assembly responsibility. Foam lining must be permanently installed and should not be installed by the government. The bidder may purchase foam separately and install it during assembly. Shelves must be flat without lips, accessible from all angles, measuring 96"-98" in width and 40"-45" in depth. No specific height requirement exists for the first shelf. Foam requirements specify it must be deep and firm enough to prevent component contact with metal and durable enough to withstand panel corners being dragged across it, but no specific density or composition is mandated. The racks must include wheels on the bottom and reference Attachment 2 dated 20 Feb 26 for design specifications. No palletization requirements or specific foam type requirements exist. Foam does not require encasing in protective covering and may be any type that meets the durability and firmness criteria specified.

Attachment 3- RFI’s
20 February 2026
1. Are we correct to assume payment terms are NET 30, payable upon acceptance?
Yes
2. Are racks required to be shipped fully assembled, or can they be shipped disassembled and:
a. Will the government assemble IAW manufacturer specification upon receipt or: Government does not want to be responsible for assembly
b. Will the bidder be responsible for supplying personnel to assemble on site?
Yes, or ship assembled.
3. Is the foam lining required to be installed by the rack manufacturer, or is it acceptable to purchase separately and install upon rack assembly/installation?
a. If the latter, will assembly be conducted by the government, or will the bidder be required to supply personnel? Assembly should not be on the government.
4. Are the shelves required to have a lip, or are flat shelves acceptable? Flat shelves are acceptable. No lip is preferred as we want components to rest on foam and not come in contact with the metal.
5. Are the shelves required to be accessible from all angles (open), or enclosed on three sides with access from the front? Accessible from all angles
6. Are we correct to interpret from the Statement of Objectives that the intended depth of the shelves is 40”-45” and the intended width of the shelves is to be 96”-98" Correct
7. Should the racks include a shelf at floor level, or should the first shelf be elevated to a specified height? No specific height of the first shelf
8. Is there a specified density and composition for the foam lining the shelves? No, just deep and firm enough so that components on shelving do not contact metal. Additionally, this foam needs to be durable for panel corners being drug across and potentially damaging the foam material.
9. Are there any palletization requirements we should be aware of when preparing our quote for shipment? No
10. Should there be wheels on the bottom of the carts? Yes
11. Is there a drawing or image of the units required? Please see Attachment 2 Dated 20 Feb 26
12. Can you provide pictures of where the units will be placed? No
13. Should the foam be permanently installed on the shelving units? Yes
14. What kind of foam is acceptable? No specific foam required
15. Should the foam be encased in any form of covering? Not necessary
