- Description
- The synopsis issued for this purchase is modified to answer questions, revise the content of the synopsis, and to revise the closing date and anticipated award date. Questions: 1. The solicitation did not provide any dimensions for the van (ISO shelter). We are assuming 8x8x20 ft.? Can you provide the dimensions? Answer: The dimensions are specified in this amended synopsis. 2. The solicitation did not provide any dimensions for the trailer. Can you provide the dimensions? Answer: No, but a specified overall trailer and shelter size requirement is provided in paragraph 3.4. 3. Can the shelter be constructed of composite material, rather than aluminum, if all the other MIL SPEC requirements of EMI, weight loading, etc. can be met? Answer: As specified in the synopsis paragraph 3.1 œShelter shall be constructed of lightweight aluminum. 4. Is it mandatory that the ECU and Generator be mounted on the trailer or can they be mounted within the shelter's ISO envelope in a compartment external to the interior of the shelter? Answer: Specified in this amended synopsis Paragraph 3.1. 5. Paragraph 2.0 states that the shelter shall meet MIL-M-81957 (AS) specs. The specs cover multiple NAVAIR style shelter systems. Which particular NAVAIR shelter system version should we be following? (Turbo Jet/Fan Engine Test System; Turbo Prop/Shaft Engine Test System; Turbo Shaft Engine Test System. Answer: Specified in this amended synopsis paragraphs 2.0 and 3.1. 6. Paragraph 2.0 states that ISO 688 specs must be followed. We believe this is a typo and the ISO spec should be ISO 668. Please clarify? Answer: Corrected in this amended synopsis Paragraphs 2.0 and 3.1. 7. Paragraph 2.0 states that ISO 1496-1 and ISO 668 must be met. Consequently, will this shelter require an International Convention Safe Containers (CSC) certification which the DOD normally requires? Please clarify? Answer: No. 8. Paragraph 3.1: For EMI specs MIL STD 285 was listed. This spec is obsolete and has been replaced by IEEE STD 299. We are assuming we should be following IEEE STD 299? Answer: Specified in this amended synopsis Paragraphs 2.0 and 3.1 œIEEE-STD-299. 9. Paragraph 3.1: The SOW states that a rear entry door is to be provided. However, MIL-M-81957 states that there are two doors required on each shelter and the size of the doors varies with each type of NAVAIR Test System Shelter? Additionally, MIL-M-81957 specifies a window in the door in some cases? Consequently, please specify how many doors are required, is a window needed in the door and what is the size desired? Answer: Specified in this amended synopsis Paragraph 3.1. Also note that a window is not required, but if contractor design utilizes one the shelter must still adhere to IEEE-STD-299. 10. Paragraph 3.1: Regarding EMI requirements, if the MIL-M-81957 spec is used it requires a window in a door. Are we to assume that there is no EMI window requirement? Please clarify? Answer: A window is not required, but if contractor design utilizes one the container must still adhere to IEEE-STD-299. 11. Paragraph 3:1: No internal dimensions are specified for the shelter. MIL-M-81957 has different internal dimensions specified for each of the NAVAIR Mobile Facility versions? It would be helpful for a simplified internal layout of equipment to be shown on a drawing. What is the desired internal shelter dimensions? Answer: Internal layout shall be defined by the contractor, but still required to meet the minimum requirements of the synopsis, see Paragraph 3.1. 12. Paragraph 3.1: After reviewing MIL-M-81957 a common requirement is termed "stuffing box." This is not a common DOD term. Please explain what a stuffing box is and what it's function is? Answer: A stuffing box, as described in MIL-M-81957, is not required. 13. Paragraph 3.1: Interior Non-skid flooring is specified. Is there a requirement for the flooring to be anti-static? Answer: No. 14. Paragraph 3:1: Under MIL-M-81957 NAVAIR shelter tare weights are listed as 4,400 lbs. and the MIL SPEC states that the NAVAIR Mobile Facility cannot exceed 4400 lbs. weight. We believe this tare weight requirement is now obsolete. It may be more accurate to state that the design gross weight (tare weight plus maximum payload) shall be 20,000 lbs which still follows the design gross weight requirement of MIL-M-81957. Please clarify? Answer: Specified in this amended synopsis paragraph 3.1. 15. Paragraph 3.1: The SOW states that the GFE Generator and ECU are to be installed on-board. Is there a mandated location as to where these items are to be installed? Please clarify? Answer: Specified in this amended synopsis paragraph 3.1. 16. Paragraph 3.2: The trailer payload capacity is listed as 13,700 lbs. The shelter payload under paragraph 3.1 states that it must support payloads greater than 15,000 lbs. Is the trailer payload correct or should it be increased to support the shelter weight /payload requirements? Answer: Corrected in this amended synopsis in Paragraph 3.1, Shelter Only and Paragraph 3.4, Shelter and Trailer. 17. Paragraph 3.2: Is there a specified trailer length required? Answer: No, but a specified overall trailer and shelter requirement paragraph 3.4. 18. Paragraph 3.2: "Manual stabilizing/leveling jacks" are listed, as are "front and back adjustable stabilizer/level jacks." Are these the same? Please clarify. Answer: Specified in this amended synopsis in Paragraph 3.2. 19. Will drawings be provided for the statement of work? Answer: No, these are to be developed by the contractor as stated in paragraph 3.3.
