Solicitation FA561326Q0041 Questions and Answers

1.

We are seeking clarification regarding the following requirement:

“Control settings, cycle names, labels and displays on the device must be in English.”

Could you confirm if this is a mandatory and critical compliance requirement? Most equipment on the German market is supplied with German interfaces, and we have been unable to identify equivalent products that meet the English-language requirement.

Would devices with German-language interfaces be acceptable? Alternatively, would any of the following solutions satisfy the requirement:

- Providing English operating instructions and user documentation;

Operating instructions should have English.

- Supplying English translations, overlays, or supplementary labels for the controls and displays?

Supply English overlays or supplementary labels for the controls and displays are acceptable.
