About this file

This is a Questions and Answers document related to a seating procurement for Reeve Union at the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh. The project involves the purchase and installation of 900 chairs to match existing seating. All chairs must be assembled prior to installation and delivered to the second floor of Reeve Union via the facility's freight elevator. Direct shipment from the manufacturer to the site is permitted provided delivery dates and times are coordinated with the University in advance to ensure adequate staffing and space availability. The University requires all 900 chairs to be installed simultaneously rather than in staged deliveries. The vendor should not submit alternative chair options, as the procurement is strictly for matching the existing furniture. Upon contract award, the University will provide the specific contact person and information for the delivery team to coordinate with at the loading dock.

Reeve Union has both ground and truck bays available at its loading dock to accommodate delivery. The University does not require the vendor to provide dollies, as the facility will use existing equipment for chair movement. The final delivery timeline and specific purchasing structure, including whether the order will be placed as a single purchase order or multiple orders with extended pricing holds, remain contingent upon cost considerations and will be determined during the contract award process. The University anticipates providing additional details regarding delivery scheduling and the designated contact person following the selection of the successful vendor.
