Viewing inquiries for 08-1F3724
Submit new inquiry for this projectInquiry #1: Please look into sheet 51, EQ-1 "Electrical Systems Quantities". It appears to be a cut and paste from contract 08-1F3624, but just with a different contract number on it. The quantities per E sheets on the table are exact matches to another contract and as stands is misleading to bidders with incorrect quantities/information. In order to provide a quote on this project we must know at a minimum the correct amount of existing fixtures we are to remove and dispose of. The amount of structures we have to deal with in regards to disconnecting and plugging after the conduits are removed can be ascertained from the SQ drawings. but not the existing fixture count, that must be provided by the department. Thank you.
