Body Armor Q&A 8/15/2016
1. In Attachment 1, Beez Combat Systems Vest Specifications, under BALCS Vest ABU and Black, it states there must be a “Lifetime warranty no stitching and materials”. I understand it is intended to state “on stitching and material”, but is the lifetime warranty intended for the life of the vest equal to the NIJ 06 industry standard warranty of 5 years for the soft armor inserted?
I thought this had already been changed to omit the lifetime warranty for stitching and materials. Instead, a 10 year minimum warranty would be acceptable. The soft armor inserts are good for 5 years.
2. In Attachment 1, Beez Combat Systems Vest Specifications, under ESAPI plates, will this solicitation include the plates or just the specification in the vest to provide this capability for future upgrades of ESAPI plates?
Just the specification in the vest to provide the capability for future upgrades.
3. I just wanted to confirm that this armor is Level IIIA NIJ .06 and not NIJ .04.
Yes it is Level IIIA NIJ 0101.06
