No dollies are required

11. what quantity you want to be delivered per shipment.

We also would like the lot shipped at one time. CLIN0001 has 12 each and CLIN0002 is 18 each. Details are on the solicitation

12. If I can’t find on GSA pricing are you OK with open market?

Yes we are OK with open market pricing.

13. Say delivery required but I don’t see install required. Are you open to dropship of the products? That would make you responsible to receive products and carry into locations where they will be located and removal of trash too

To answer the questions though, yes, I did not request installation and ok with dropship but I was also thinking the cabinets were assembled already

14. Does the receiving location have a dock…I.e. can they receive the shipment on pallets?

The receiving area is a dedicated warehouse and can receive the shipment on pallets

15. It was stated in the previous Q&A that your preference is that the cabinets arrive assembled. Since the standard shipment of the cabinets is unassembled, it would add a significant cost for us to assemble them and re-ship them assembled. Is your preference for us to provide a price shipping them assembled, or to provide the lower price of shipping them unassembled?

Please provide a price to ship them assembled

16. To complete the pricing for the proposal, I do need to know the complete shipping address on where the cabinets are to be delivered. Also, will the cabinets need to be pre-assembled prior to delivery?

17. I am working on contract W912J624R0004 Medical Cabinets. I have found the QTY 12 16 gauge cabinets with bins however I am having an issue locating the QTY 18 steel cabinets in 16 gauge material. The cabinet I have located is an Industrial Storage with correct sizing, matching colors to the QTY 12 cabinets, and weight capacity per shelf. The only thing different is the gauge is lower.

Please let me know if the gauging is acceptable for the 36x24x72 Grey Cabinet.

Yes the gauge of 20 and 22 is acceptable
