Tech/Engineering - Engineering (general)
Spanish term or phrase: alcances
(Pregunta)
En los ***alcances de suministro*** de la presente Licitacion, no solicitan Refaccionamiento de dos años de operacion, favor de indicarnos si lo requieren y cual sería el % sobre el monto.

(Respuesta)
Se confirma que las refacciones requeridas para cada Reactor son las siguientes:

1. 10 % de tubos identicos a los solicitados en el ***alcance*** de cada reactor.
2. DOS (2) juegos de empaques para cada boquilla bridada de entrada/salida de cada Reactor, incluyendo los empaques de registros de acceso.

==============

El documento es una licitación pública de México. La redacción deja bastante que desear, la verdad :(

¿"Alcances" aquí podría ser sinónimo de "costos"?

Gracias.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Gracias, Sergio. No estoy segura de "scope" (fue lo primero que pensé), porque "alcances" está en plural. Veremos qué dicen los demás :)


Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Henry Hinds: SCOPE OF SUPPLY; no te preocupes por el plural, Tere, en inglés es singular.
