Are these existing and if so, what is their size and substrate? Since the RFQ calls for significant graphic production, it would seem these graphics would also be produced as part of the package.

Q - A supervisor and expenses are easy to calculate. However, this RFQ requests electrical service and lead machine from the General Contractor or the show, but, does mention other services such as cleaning or installation/dismantle labor. Generally, services from the GC are ordered together, so, this raises a flag. Will this be handled by CDC directly?
