About this file

This document is an Attachment 1 - Requirement Description with Salient Characteristics for procuring ergonomic OCP uniforms with specific fire-resistant safety specifications. The requirement is for protective clothing for workers who operate near exposed electrical equipment, mandating arc-rated shirts and pants with a minimum 8 cal/cm2 arc flash rating, consistent with UFC 3-560-01 standards. The clothing quantities include 30 small tops, 34 medium tops, 22 large tops, 22 short pants, 50 regular pants, and 14 long pants, all constructed from a 7oz fire-resistant sateen fabric.

The delivery address is specified as 554 RHS/RO Unit 14014, APO/AP 96543-4014, located in bldg 61328, Road 2, Yigo, GU 96929. The document emphasizes that current arc-rated coveralls are insufficient to meet safety requirements, as the underlying layer does not comply with the specified OCP uniform fabric standards. The procurement is critical for personnel safety, with non-compliance potentially leading to injury or death when working near electrical equipment.

Ergonomic OCP uniform with a resilient woven 7oz fire resistant sateen fabric that meets or exceeds the 8 Cal/cm2 "8 cal" (or 8 cal/cm²) refers to a specific level of protection against arc flash events, typically measured in calories per square centimeter Arc Flash Rating for National Fire Prevention Association 70e “PPE Category" . If not fulfilled could lead to Personnel injury or death.

Quantities of clothing items needed;

Small Top- 30 Med Top- 34 Large Top- 22 Short Pants- 22 Regular pants- 50 Long pants- 14

UFC 3-560-01

Any worker whose normal job includes working on or near exposed electrical equipment must wear to work as a minimum:

Arc-rated shirt (long-sleeve) and pants (or arc-rated coveralls) with minimum arc rating of 8 cal/cm2(33.47 J/cm2).

Currently the unit has a small supply of arc-rated coveralls but this is not able to meet the requirements of UFC 3-560-01 as the under layer of clothing is not OCP uniform with a resilient woven 7oz fire resistant sateen fabric that meets or exceeds the 8 Cal/cm2
