The EquipmentRequest model class doesn't keep track of quantity at the moment. We need to think about how we want this data to be represented in the DB. Two possible solutions:

Store a serialized (i.e. turned into a string) dictionary (where the key is the ID of the item and the value is the quantity) as a string field on the existing model
