Q 01) Clin 0001 (6k diesel) under Power Type it says Diesel yet under Electric it says 36V. Do you want a
6k Diesel or Electric Forklift?
A 01) Diesel
Q 02) Clin 0002 (10k diesel) under Power Type it says Diesel yet under Electric it says 48V. Do you want a
10k Diesel or Electric Forklift?
A 02) Diesel
Q 03) Clin 0003 ‐ 0006 under Tire Type it says Solid (cushion)/ pneumatic preferred. What tire type is actually preferred for these line items?
A 03) Pneumatic is preferred.
Q 04) Under the Delivery requirements it says must be prior to 8/1/2024. How firm is this delivery requirement? A 10k Diesel Forklift right now is out 485 ‐ 510 Days ARO.
A 04) The solicitation has been updated to include a statement that partial delivery is acceptable.
Required award date for the other forklifts remains 01 August 2024, but lead times for a 10k diesel forklift past 01 August will be considered.
Q 05) The solicitation seeks a “removable overhead guard” on all 9 forklifts. What we call the overhead guard is the protective structure that surrounds the operator and operator compartment. This can be unbolted and taken off but requires disconnecting wiring harnesses, etc. the dash comes off with the guard. It is not “Quick Disconnect.” The structure is considered the overhead FOPS (Falling Object
Protection Structure) and the machine cannot run with this off. With respect to the 10,000 lb. diesel unit, the solicitation asks for a full cab with heater and removable doors. We are able to accommodate that, but they once again, a “removable overhead Guard” is requested even on that unit. The whole cab would then require removal. Could you kindly clarify if you are referring to some type of guard that is truly over the top of the cab?
A 05) The overhead guard is a requirement but it does not have to be removable.
