__X__The material/service must be compatible in all aspects (form, fit and function) with existing systems presently installed. Justi Describe the equipment you have now and how the new item/service must coordinate, connect, or interface with the existing system.

Currently all four Shipyards are using 3MDBI/Sala harness and lanyard fall protection gear as the NAVSEA standard. Uniformity is a critical element to the planned Shipyard-wide Cooperate training program for employees on fall protection equipment and procedures.

Employees are already trained and familiar with the DBI/Sala system and will know the proper way to react in an emergency situation when an employee takes a fall, despite the Shipyard environment or location. Having more than one manufacturer could be a complicated situation and would have to be carefully mitigated. Concerns of wearing different fall protection systems would leave the employee questioning the correct procedure for each to use the equipment properly. S/06 purchases and maintains fall gear for check out to qualified mechanics shipyard wide.

COMPETITION.
