This document is a residential bed specification sheet for Mt. San Antonio College's Technology and Health Building project, a prequalification initiative for custom furniture (FF&E) procurement in California. The project involves furnishing a new four-story, 273,000-square-foot facility that will consolidate 10 departments and 26 academic programs currently distributed across six separate locations, making it the largest instructional facility of any community college in California. The furniture specification provided details the residential bed requirements, which appear designed to support the Health Careers and related educational programs being integrated into this transformative learning environment. The prequalification process requires interested contractors to submit packets demonstrating their qualifications, experience, licensing, and ability to perform the scope of work by the established deadline, with only approved contractors invited to participate in the subsequent main project solicitation.

The furniture design philosophy emphasizes creating flexible, dynamic spaces that support student engagement while showcasing the distinct identity and branding of each program served. This prequalification phase is informational in nature, with all project attachments, drawings, and specifications provided for reference purposes to help contractors understand the project's scope and complexity. Contractors should note that prequalification approval does not constitute authorization to perform work; only formally approved contractors will advance to the main competitive bidding phase. The project reflects Mt. San Antonio College's strategic investment in modern educational infrastructure and facilities consolidation, with furniture selections intended to create visually distinct, programmatically aligned learning environments.
