SB-I000844

Purchase & Installation of High-Density Mobile Shelving Unit

Shelby County Emergency

Criminal Court Clerk

TO ALL PROSPECTIVE BIDDERS:

The following questions were submitted by a potential vendor. Our answer is listed

in red below:

1. In application, please provide the allocation of units by size. The

specification/scope of work section already provide minimum unit sizes and

allotment… please refer to the addendums.

2. Will there be any loose file storage? We see the request for dividers. If you are

still going to be storing boxes only, then the dividers will have no use. We will

be storing loose files and boxes. Therefore, the dividers are needed for our

storage flexibility.

3. I have a concern regarding the Bid for Shelby County Criminal Court Clerk in the

scope of work: The quote/bid must include preparing any concrete for

installation as needed. Removing any flooring that is not concrete, install

polyurea or similar floor coating over existing concrete for durability if

needed. This scope of work needs to be directed to a flooring contractor.

We are not qualified to do or oversee this type of work. Another factor is

until the existing high-density filing is removed, it would be hard to

determine the actual condition of the concrete and the necessary work that

need to be done. Has the existing flooring been tested for asbestos? That

could be very critical in determining the removal of the flooring. We can

certainly give you the manufacturer’s recommendation for the concrete

and work with a floor-covering contractor. Please let me know if we can

eliminate this portion of the bid or will that have an effect on our bid

submittal? All existing shelving is installed on a concrete floor. The extra

space of 400ft is where the additional shelving will be installed. This is

where we have vinyl flooring that is not in good condition. In addition, it is

not recommended to install high-density shelving and operate heavy

equipment on vinyl flooring. Therefore, we are asking for polyurea or

epoxy coating. Older vinyl flooring made before 1982 may contain asbestos

but we believe these was not installed prior to that. You may have a

flooring contractor visit the site to give you an estimate for your bid.

Sincerely,

Signed Original on File
