Vendor Questions

1. The ballis�c shacks/cabins will be ready to install. Could you please confirm if the unloading will be in the contractor's scope? Will the client provide a Hiab or crane at the base?

a. We will provide the unloading of the items.

2. Could you please confirm, if the hooking up of the shacks/cabins to the main power lines and other u�li�es will be in the contractor's scope as well?

a. This will not be in the contractors’ scope as this will need to be done by CES.

3. If the installa�on is in the contractor's scope, are all the sites of installa�on prepped to receive the shacks?

The shield requires level 5 steel but level 9 glass. Please can you confirm that level 5 steel and glass would be acceptable?

a. We need the glass to have the highest protec�on because structurally it will be the weakest point.

9 Level glass and 5 level steel are s�ll required.

b. The areas are prepped to receive the gate shacks.

4. The cabin specifica�on states 2# AC split system per cabin. Given the small dimensions of the cabins it won’t be possible to fit two units, also, the capacity will be significantly oversized which can cause opera�onal issues. Please confirm that 1# is acceptable?

a. One will be acceptable.

5. Could you confirm the internal and external fire ra�ngs of the cabins? And power Hz requirements. Do you need to be interchangeable between 50Hz and 60Hz to conform with both UK and American generators?

a. They need to be interchangeable as we may not know which one, we will be opera�ng on at any given �me.

6. The overall specifica�on requires the facili�es to comply with UFC 4-022-01. UFC 4-022-01 specifies UL 752 as the ballis�c resistance standard rather than NIJ, please can you confirm that where reference to NIJ is made, that a UL752 equivalent can be provided per the UFC?

a. Yes, a UL752 equivalent product can be provided.

b. The UK Ra�ng for the Guard Houses is “FD60”
