About this file
This document is a Questions and Answers (Q&A) Revision 1 for a mobile shield/protective structure with specific technical requirements. The project involves a mobile shield system with dimensions of 36" x 46" x 77", requiring a steel-based structure with a ballistic-rated panel and a non-retractable awning designed to protect personnel from natural elements. Key specifications include a transparent anti-ballistic panel with NIJ III protection level, side panels, and a front panel visible from standard waste height, with a maximum weight limit of 800 lbs. The system must have a panel that conceals personnel and weapons while allowing the sentry to look outward, and will utilize electrical plug-ins available on-site for heating and other power needs.
The solicitation includes specific design parameters such as allowing the wheel assembly to extend from the front of the structure and requiring a standard window configuration on side panels. The offer submission deadline was revised to August 27, 2025, at 10:00 AM PST, with questions and clarifications addressed prior to this date. The document provides detailed guidance for potential vendors on the technical and functional requirements of the mobile shield system, emphasizing protection, mobility, and operational flexibility.
