Responses from Local Customer: 07/16/20 Response 2: VA warehouse personnel can assist with movement of palletized goods once received at the VA medical center, however, contractor has responsibility for equipment until installed and accepted Response 1: In general, all equipment has to be received at our warehouse for tracking of equipment. Our expectation would be that the vendor would unbox, uncrate and install. That being said, if the equipment is palletized, we could request warehouse assistance to move equipment from the warehouse to the install location (in this case that is in Building 2). The vendor would be responsible for removal of all trash related to the boxing/packing materials.
