Ship, unload, unpack, reassemble and install this same furniture in the Operations Building at the FRA�s Transportation Technology Center located in Pueblo, CO. The anticipate cost is $25,039.04. 2.

If the brand name requirement applies to a portion of the procurement, please identify that portion. _________ Industrial Mobilization ____X_____ Other. Explain: The furniture was purchased, delivered and installed by Govsolutions, Inc. They know the furniture and how to disassemble these and most importantly how to reassemble them correctly.
