Questions and Answers:
1. Are you able to provide drawings of the holding rooms? Measurement of the space which takes the bumper bar into account would also help for us to make the correct design. A photograph of the space would also help us to make the design the most useful to the end user. We are looking to see if we are able to fit an additional cage along the wall while still meeting all of the requirements in the bid.
Response: We just need the specification in the solicitation met. We don’t require any additional cages.
2. Is the removeable floor a solid floor that can be completely removed or is it a fixed floor that can be opened and closed within the cage?
Response: It is a fixed floor that can be opened within the cage.
3. Is the floor of the bottom cage permanent/non removeable?
Response: Yes, it is welded permanent.
4. May we deliver the cages in lots of 20 and submit billing per delivery/acceptance?
Response: Yes, but all 60 one over one racks (2 cages stacked one on top the other) must be delivered within the time specified in the solicitation (Delivery/installation/training shall be completed within 120 calendar days after receipt of order). All shipping/delivery costs must be included in the quoted price.
