reduction The low bid submitted by General Safety Equipment was further reduced by the deletion of
non-essential miscellaneous tools and equipment totaling $47,000 00 to bring the cost of the equipment
within the budgeted amount authorized for this purchase of equipment.
M/V1IBE - A waiver of the M/WBE requirement was requested by Purchasing and approved by the
M/VVBE Office because the purchase of goods was from a source where subcontracting or supplier
opportunities were negligible.
