Service contract for the provision of handheld audioguides in a museum. As far as i can tell, the "mobiliers" referred to are collection points, storage racks, information desks etc.
Tout ou partie des mobiliers doivent être adaptés à l’accueil des personnes en situation de handicap (ergonomie adaptée aux personnes à mobilité réduite, plateau surbaissé avec retrait, équipement en amplificateurs d’écoute mobiles pour les personnes malentendantes etc.).
I cannot even picture what this is referring to - all help appreciated!

Comment: "Having considered Bourth's comments (with the due consideration they always deserve!), then if we're talking about countertops perhaps recessed means there is a chunk cut out the front of the desk to allow wheelchair users to pull up closer?"
