An analysis validating the structural capability of the tie down rings/provisions will be required. A point of contact for ATTLA will be included in the RFP. In addition to ATTLA certification, each ISO container must be approved by one of the following: Convention for Safe Containers (CSC) or Joint Committee of Tactical Shelters (JOCOTAS).
