This is a Question and Answer document from Bid Solicitation DQ1*872 addressing specifications for picnic tables in a state or local procurement. The solicitation involves two types of picnic tables: four (4) 8-foot Double Sided Extra Heavy Duty ADA-compliant tables and nine (9) 8-foot Extra Heavy Duty picnic tables. A bidder raised a compliance concern regarding the dimensions of Line #2, specifically questioning whether the 95-inch top and 72-inch seats with 21-inch overhangs at both ends met wheelchair accessibility requirements or if the specifications should instead call for an 8-foot top and seat configuration.

In response to the bidder's question, the issuing agency clarified the correct specifications: the four ADA tables should have benches measuring 9 inches wide by 72 inches long by 18 inches high, while the nine standard extra heavy duty tables should have benches measuring 9 inches wide by 96 inches long by 18 inches high. The agency referenced the corrected dimensions in the Bid Solicitation Document section (.2), indicating that specifications had been updated from the original solicitation language to address the accessibility concern raised by the potential bidder.
