22.1.1. Within two weeks after each delivery order (DO) is awarded, the manufacturer must submit an electronic copy (AutoCAD) of the individual site-specific design for FAA COR review. Design approvals and/or changes will be accomplished at that time. A final FAA customer review may be a part of this review process.

22.1.2. The checking, marking, or approval of the shop drawings and/or product data by the FAA must not be construed as a complete check, but will indicate only that the general method of construction and detailing is satisfactory. Approval will not relieve the manufacturer of the responsibility for the dimensions and design of adequate connections, details, and satisfactory construction of all work.

22.1.3. The manufacturer must only take direction for changes under this contract from the Contracting Officer (CO). Any changes that incur additional costs must be approved through the CO. Any changes directed by the FAA field or other customers should be directed to the CO/COR. The manufacturer is responsible for additional costs incurred if this process is not followed.

22.2. FAA Approvals

22.2.1. Approved as Submitted – If drawings are indicated “approved as submitted,” (typically via email) the approved revision of the shop drawings or product data will be identified as having received such approval by an appropriate and consistent drawing revision control process. After submittal has been approved, the FAA will permit no substitution without written approval.

22.2.2. Approved as Noted – If drawings are marked “approved as noted,” the shop drawings or product data is satisfactory contingent upon manufacturer performance of corrections, notations, or both and, if accepted, does not require re-submittal.

22.2.3. Not Approved – If drawings are marked “not approved,” the shop drawing or submittal data do not meet job requirements and the manufacturer must resubmit. If shop drawings or submittal data are disapproved, the manufacturer must resubmit the corrected material, in the same quantity as specified for the original submittal.

22.3. Samples – The Government reserves the right to request samples of any products or materials proposed for use on this project. A core of the wall penetration from the electrical input must be shipped with each shelter.

23.0 Transportation – The proposed price(s) must be quoted freight on board (FOB) destination, Oklahoma City, OK.

Transportation of direct-ship shelters to points within the US must also be freight on board (FOB) destination as detailed within the contract documents. The shelter manufacturer must submit any additional shipping charges in the original quote for direct site shipments.

23.1. Items that might be damaged during transportation, e.g., rain hoods, exterior light, lighting elements, must be removed and properly packaged for shipment. The shelter itself must be designed to withstand repeated hoisting or lifting stress in loading/off-loading for shipment by truck, and to properly withstand all road shock, which may be encountered during such means of transportation. Provisions, as necessary, to allow hoisting without damage to the shelter or equipment installed prior to shipment must be included, e.g., lifting eyes, bolt-on lifting plates, cable guides. Shelter manufacturer must also provide hardware necessary for shelter-to-slab connection.

23.2. All damage incurred during shipment from the manufacturer’s facility to any designated destination is the responsibility of the shelter manufacturer.

23.3. The shelter manufacturer must have the capability to ship their product overseas and arrive in a safe manner with no damage. Forklift pockets integrated into the shelter frames are required for overseas shipments.

23.4. The shelter manufacturer is responsible for coordinating off-loading equipment for the FAA’s “direct ship” sites, except for the FAA Logistics Center. The shelter manufacturer will submit these costs along with any additional shipping charges in the original quote for direct site shipments. It is the FAA’s option to use this off-loading process.

24.0 Storage

24.1. The shelter manufacturer must have facilities available to be able to store shelters, pending site readiness, in small quantities for periods up to six months. Storage of these shelters must be at no cost to the Government for up to 60 days. Storage beyond the 60-day period must be offered as a separately priced option.

24.2. The manufacturers’ shelters can be stored at FAA facilities for extended periods of time, up to three years, under non-powered conditions. During the manufacturing process or prior to shipment, the shelter manufacturer will provide a means to protect entry points, openings, and penetrations to the shelter from weather, insects, and/or other pests in anticipation of these extended periods. Components within the shelter susceptible to damage or deterioration from humidity, condensation and/or other factors must be protected as well. Such damage or deterioration must be covered under the manufacturer warranty.

Shelters must be washed or re-coated as required for a like-new appearance prior to shipment at no cost to the FAA.

25.0 Warranties – Warranties and/or guarantees must be required and must include, but are not limited to, the following terms. Warranty work must be performed by the manufacturer at the FAALC or the final destination at no additional cost to the FAA.

25.1. Shelter manufacturer must provide a warranty for a minimum of five (5) years on the shelter against defects in materials, leaks (including but not limited to door gasket leaks and factory wall penetrations), workmanship, corrosion, and design deficiencies, and must make repairs and replacements at no cost to the FAA. Repairs made must resemble a like-new condition. The shelter manufacturer must have the capability to make all repairs at any FAA designated site.

25.2. This warranty must also cover all components of the shelter for a minimum of one year, unless otherwise specified, including but not limited to: door (5 years), door seals, door mechanisms, hoods, vents, and all electrical and/or mechanical components.

25.3. The HVAC system must be warranted for a minimum of one year on parts and labor and five (5) years on the air conditioner compressor.

25.4. Shelter manufacturer must provide the FAA with certificates of guarantees and warranties normally provided by manufacturers of all equipment and materials not listed above.

25.5. Warranties for the shelter and all products used on or in the shelter, including but not limited to any and all electrical, heat and AC components, will commence at such time the shelter arrives at its final destination/installation. Holding, staging, or storage areas such as FAA Logistics Center, other FAA/DOD staging areas or the manufacturer’s storage are not considered the final destination unless so designated by the Government. For the purpose of the warranty of all products and the shelter on stored units, the warranty must commence two (2) years after the date of initial delivery.

26.0 Quality Assurance

26.1. Workmanship – The shelter manufacturer must perform all fabrication and assembly in a professional workmanlike manner, in accordance with approved industry practices and in conformity with this specification. Exterior shelter finish must be true and plumb with no surface imperfections. Interior shelter component installation (electrical, etc.) must be installed plumb and level. The completed shelters must conform to applicable portions of the International Building Code (IBC), International Mechanical Code (IMC), National Electric Code (NEC) and International Energy Conservation Code (IECC).

26.1.1. The shelter manufacturer must ensure that internal manufacturing drawings and specifications are highly detailed and followed to great extent as to the construction of the shelter and layout of electrical components, including conduits, boxes, and major components within the electrical area.

Problems and issues that require corrective action cause costly delays to the Government, both at the FAALC and potentially at field sites.

26.1.2. The manufacturer must perform tests on the shelter electrical and environmental systems to ensure proper operation. The manufacturer must provide documentation with each shelter on the performance of the HVAC unit. Tests must include, but not limited to; high & low pressures on the refrigerant and voltage readings on all electrical components while operating, torque sheets.

Repairs must be accepted by the Government to close issue. If the manufacturer cannot perform the rework within the stated period, the Government will correct the problem and invoice the manufacturer on a time-and-materials basis based upon the FAALC current Manufacturer rate. This invoice amount will be applied as a credit on future shelter orders.

26.1.4. In cases where corrective actions from the manufacturer will cause significant delays to the Government, the Government reserves the right to make necessary corrections and apply appropriate charges back to the manufacturer. If related problems persist, the government can take corrective action with the manufacturer in the form of returned shipments and delinquency penalties. (Reference contract section F 3)

26.2. Leakage Testing – The shelter manufacturer must factory test the completed shelter by concentrating a water spray of not less than 250 pounds per square inch (psi) aimed at the roof and each side, including doors, environmental units, and related structure.
