What percentage of the units must be serviced after hours? Answer: Equipment located in the Kitchen area can potentially be completed afterhours due to interruptions of patients. 7. A few pieces of equipment on the list are tied to animal labs. Does the work on these units have to be paid at the Wage Determination 23411 - Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning Mechanic (Research Facility) $23.55 rate?

Answer: No 9.It is stated that during the performance of the scheduled maintenance that the contractor shall report any deficiencies that require repairs. Will these repairs that are identified then be performed by the contractor? Answer: Determination will be decided at the time of need. 10.

Answer: Different purchase order and contract. 11.Can you give us an explanation of what would NOT be covered under this contract per the statement listed below that is in the scope of work?
