Questions & Answers

Total: 1

Question	Date Asked	Answer	Date Answered
Can you please provide specifications for the product required? The description in the excel spreadsheet is too vague and the scope of work only mentions the clearing gradient. Thank you	11/3/2025 12:14:17 PM	The forklifts will be used in industrial programs at Technical College sites such as Welding, Electricity, Building Construction, and HVAC. These sites receive many large loads of supplies such as lumber, metal, and other large quantities of consumables that require lift to move and store. There may also be the need to move large equipment from time to time. In addition, the sites will offer a forklift driving course that this item will be used for in the training. The main specs are 5000 lb. min load, lithium battering and clearing gradient as mentioned in the scope. If you need more details, please feel free to post the questions.	11/3/2025 1:33:58 PM
