‐ 8. Indicate for each structure if there is a closing day in order to facilitate activities in the absence of users and is it necessary to coordinate the activity with the janitorial contractor that will carry out "fine" cleaning?

10. It was stated that all areas are accessible without need for platforms or truck-mounted platforms to safely reach the roofs and / or extraction fans. Please confirm. The intent is to confirm what was verbally said during the site visit, that is that all roofs and extraction fans are currently reachable without need to estimate costs for platforms or lifts. Please confirm that there are existing ladders or other accessible means that meet safety requirements for all areas considered in this project. This will support a fair and reasonable cost estimate for all participants.
