The suggested manufacturer (Blickman) describes product #7847SS as instrument tables. These types of tables are designed for instruments, not necessarily animals, especially large, heavy species. Suburban Surgical has a equal to product and we are happy to quote, however our instrument tables, as Blickman s, are designed as described. Question: What are the weight requirements for this table? Weight requirements are not available and cannot be provided for the Blickman Table referenced in Section 2.5.9 of the Statement of Work. (The manufacturer/manufacturer s website does not provide minimum/maximum weight requirements for this specific table). The (Blickman) table is designed for instruments and rodents. If the Blickman table cannot be provided contractors must provide a table that meets all salient characteristics (as annotated in the Statement of Work) that can support lightweight usage. We are a small animal facility (with primarily rodents). 5. 2.6.1.1 Can we hold products at our own facility, and ship when installation area is ready, instead of pre delivering to Energy Plant Building?

Please refer to the subsequent amendment/rewrite of Section 2.5.3 of the Statement of Work. 8. 2.5.4 In statement 2.5.4 you call out hoses and connects to an induction chamber, but no chamber.
