About this file
This is a Question and Answers document for the DDAA Weapon Special Packaging Instructions (SPI) Boxes RFI issued by the Defense Logistics Agency Distribution. The document addresses eight questions and corresponding answers from potential vendors regarding technical specifications and submission requirements for Special Packaging Instruction kits compliant with MIL-STD-2073.
Key clarifications provided include: revised material numbers and schedule of supply documentation with updated figure designations for drawings SPI AM11826290 and SPI AM12976814; confirmation that complete SPI kits (including fiberboard boxes and associated packaging materials such as inserts and barrier bags) are required rather than individual components; product samples are not required at quote submission; and material descriptions have been updated to omit certain bag specifications and related drawing references. Regarding cushioning materials and construction specifications for CLINs 0001-0004, vendors are directed to the revised Schedule of Supply and individual SPI documents for specific requirements, as material composition specifications (foam versus fiberboard) vary by line item and are detailed in the respective SPI documentation rather than uniformly applied across all CLINs.

DDAA SPI Weapon Boxes RFI:
Question #1: Material information specific to the dimensions for Fig 1, Fig 2 and Fig 3 do not match to any dimensions provided in documents SPI AM11826290 or SPI AM12976814. Please clarify with specific dimensions. Furthermore, unlike document SPI AM9390000, which shows drawings labeled Fig 1, Fig 2 and Fig 3, there is no designation provided on documents SPI AM11826290 or SPI AM12976814. Please provide updated documents with respective “figures” appropriately labeled.
Answer #1: Please see revised schedule of supply all material numbers have been updated.
Question #2: Finally, the link provided for obtaining VCI tube and VCI barrier bag times out and will not open. Please provide preferred vendor contact for these items.
Answer #2: Omitted the bags from the material descriptions.
Question #3: Our understanding is that the requirement is for complete Special Packaging Instruction (SPI) kits (including the fiberboard box and associated packaging materials such as inserts, barrier bags, etc.) in accordance with MIL-STD-2073, rather than individual packaging components supplied separately. Please confirm if this interpretation is correct.
Answer #3: Correct Question #4: We did not see a requirement for submission of product samples with the quotation. Please confirm that samples are not required at the time of quote submission.
Answer #4: Not required Question #5: For SPI AM9390000, the barrier bags we need to supply, it states "SEE ARDEC DWG 13027484 FOR DETAIL." Are you able to provide?
Answer #5: Omitted the bags from the material descriptions.
Question #6: For CLIN 0001, Attachment 1 says that items 1-8 are needed, where 1 is assembled and items 2-8 are unassembled, assuming inside the box. It also says that cushioning must be made of fiberboard. Is this accurate? The detailed pictures of CLIN 0001 show foam cushioning being used.
Answer #6: See revised Schedule of Supply, if it applies it’s mentioned in the SPI.
Question #7: The description for CLINS 0001-0004 on Attachment 1 seems to be identical, yet the drawings seem very different. Is all this information, correct?
Answer #7: See revised Schedule of Supply Question #8: All CLIN descriptions say that foam will not be accepted, and that fiberboard must be used. I just want to make sure this is accurate.
Answer #8: See revised Schedule of Supply, if it applies it’s mentioned in the SPI.
