This amendment to the RFQ adds a requirement, clarifies another, and extends the period of time in which a quote/revised quote may be submitted.
There is added to the RFQ a requirement for a wall-mounted HVAC unit compatible with the electrical requirements earlier requested.
As clarification, the term, "Panorama glass-to-glass" is intended to mean "full perimeter glazing." This clarification will assure that metal supports are placed at each corner of the glazing and will help reduce the chance of grazing at the corners and the potential deterioration of the glass.
The time for a quote to be submitted is extended until 4:00 CDST on June 5, 2019.
Except as noted above, all other terms of the RFQ remain as earlier stated.
