The bid was based on the purchase of 120 stacking chair carriers and required that the carriers be welded metal construction, stackable up to 3 three high while fully loaded, and have swivel casters. The Convention Center has over 20,000 chairs on campus, the carriers will facilitate fast forklift transportation between halls and meeting rooms, serve as storage units, and help maximize space by reducing storage footprint. Innovative Systems offered the most competitive overall pricing and therefore staff recommends awarding accordingly.
