Amendment 0001

1. According to the box manufacturer, the weight limits of the 275 and 50 lbs for a box that is 10x12x2 with a single wall does not fit the specs as requested. In order the get the weight limits listed on the solicitation, the box would have to be a 10x12x4 – is it okay for us to quote this alternate size?

The box needs to be 10x12x2 or 12x10x2 (same thing) we have received many orders under the description.

BOX, SHIPPING, CORRUGATED FIBERBOARD, DOMESTIC, SINGLEWALL; REGULAR SLOTTED CARTON. SIZE:

10 INCH LONG X 12 INCH WIDE X 2 INCH DEEP (Inside Dimensions). Flute Designation: C. Box Joint: Glued. FOUR FLAPS

ON TOP AND FOUR FLAPS ON BOTTOM; OUTER FLAPS MEET WHEN CLOSED. 275 POUNDS PER

SQUARE INCH BURSTING STRENGTH (Mullen Test). MAXIMUM WEIGHT OF CARTON AND CONTENTS IS 50 POUNDS.

IAW FAR 23.4 USE OF RECOVERED MATERIALS AND BIOBASED PRODUCTS all corrugated containers <(><<)>300psi must contain a minimum of 25-50% recovered fiber content including a minimum of 25-50% postconsumer fiber content. Refer to the Consolidated Recovered Materials Advisory Notice (RMAN) for the Comprehensive Procurement Guideline (CPG) issued by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for additional Information. ASTM D5118/ D5118M AND CURRENT CHANGES APPLY. Quantity per bundle: 25. Box maker’s seal must be printed on a flap along with the material number.

You are correct. Length is always the longest number and this box is 12x10x2.

*The customer requested changing this description, but this would alter the material number so the description had to remain in this format.

3. I have a question regarding Solicitation #SP330025Q0160, specifically for item N00005889 (Box Shipping 10x12x2 SW). This item has previously been approved by DLA to be manufactured as an ECT alternative of 275# (44 ECT).

Can you please advise if this will be acceptable for this current opportunity as well?

Customer is not familiar with this alternative. Therefor, this alternative will not be acceptable for this opportunity.

2. Your request for BOX SHIPPING 10 INCH LONG X 12 INCH WIDE X 2 INCH DEEP are these the correct dimensions? I've been told that When manufacturing corrugated boxes the longest dimension is always the length.

The shorter dimension is the width. If you must tape the box across the “width” or the shorter dimension then it would not be considered an RSC as per their description. The box would become a Die-Cut and Joined. Is it possible to get a diagram of what it is your looking for?
