The Government is not offering financing for this procurement.

The following is a list of the additional questions we have for the above reverenced solicitation.

Is weight a concern? We have multiple shielding options all of which will exceed the 100 dB requirement that vary dramatically in weight. Additionally, we have permanent (welded) systems and modular systems. Is there an advantage to proposing any of these options?

Weight is a concern as it determines what type of vehicle can tow. Section 3.1.8 “Towability” addresses the question (12,000lbs weight maximum and 1200lbs tongue weight).

Is there an acoustic isolation requirement with the RF isolation?

While there is no acoustic isolation requirement, it is preferred to have some isolation, especially from loud items such as the generator.

What thermal Insulation value is desired for the walls and ceiling?

While section 3.1.2 addresses heating and cooling requirements, it does not specify the insulation value. The walls of the trailer will be subject to above 130°F ambient temperatures, putting metals at very hot temperatures. We would like the thermal transfer to be minimized to maintain internal temperatures. Spray in foam is a recommendation.

Is there an exterior finish specification? The one in the picture looks a bit worn.

While there is no requirement on exterior finish, commercial grade/automotive primer and paint, smooth texture, and white color is preferred.

What is the heat load for the interior equipment? We will be able to calculate the load from the walls and ceiling, but in order to size the HVAC equipment we will need to know what the interior heat loads generated will be. (at least an estimate so we can get close) Alternatively do you have an HVAC size that you require?

Heat load will vary depending on internal configuration though the maximum will be limited to the output power size of the generator. Worst case configuration would be approximately 2000W (2 large oscilloscopes, 4 monitors, two laptop computers, and 5 lower power (~100 total watt/each) electronics.

The AA-D-600D federal specification seems to pertain to vault doors in Class 5. Is a class 5 safe what is desired? Is this safe to be a 2 drawer, 5 drawer, drawing safe etc. and does it need a lock on each drawer?

· Class 6 safe only

· Two drawers minimum with one lock for all drawers.

· The safe cannot be modified in any way (such as welding it to the trailer). What is typically done is to use angle iron to create a floor bracket and then use straps to hold the safe in place.

· It can be black, parchment, or grey in color.

For the generator, are you looking for that to be within the sheildline of the enclosure or in its own shielded envelope? (Difference being that we will need to provide another filter to pass power if it is in its own envelope.) Are you looking for an automatic transfer switch for this or are we to provide additional receptacles that would allow the backed up items to be plugged into in the event the system power changes over to the generator?

The power input will be either shore power or generator power, no automatic transfer switch is required.

If the generator is interior to the shield line it is preferred that noise be minimized and fumes mitigated.

Do you need a separate gas tank for the generator or will it be connected to something on site?

Preferred to have a separate fuel tank for the generator, there will be no on-site connection.

Would a trailered 20’ sea container (modified) be of interest if it contained all of the requirements above?

Current trailer length is 10-12’ for the shielded box, which provides an adequate but tight interior working space. However, the tradeoff is a more maneuverable trailer.

Do you have a desired height?

Current trailer height is about 10ft. Height should be less than 12ft. The concern for an overly tall trailer would be 1) going under any overpasses, and 2) top heavy maneuverability on uneven terrain.
