Questions & Answers

Question 1:

1. Line Number 0002: "Minimum Requirements" indicate the need for Nylon Round Sling with a capacity of 17,000 US pounds, but a Load Cell Indicator with a capacity of 5 US tons (10,000 US pounds).

2.. Line Number 0004: "Minimum Requirements" indicate the need for Nylon Round Sling with a capacity of 44,000 US pounds, but a Load Cell Indicator with a capacity of 12.5 US tons (25,000 US pounds).

As the kit hauling capacity will be based on the item with the lowest working load limit, can you confirm that there is no error in the designated requirements for these two items, or if either lower sling capacities or higher load cell capacities are required?

Answer: The Government confirms there is no error on the requirement. Please follow the requirements on the solicitation.

Question 2:

Line Number 0007 of this solicitation is a requirement for "Airlifting Bag Protective Case 44 Ton" and asks for a quantity of two (2). We have the following questions regarding this requirement:

1. Is each of these protective cases intended to hold fifteen (15) 44 ton capacity airbag elements?

2. If the answer to Question 1 is "no," please specify what each of these protective cases is intended to hold.

3. If the answer is to Question 2 is "yes," can you confirm that the customer has considered that such a case when loaded will be almost 70% bulkier and heavier than the already-large 26 ton airbag protective case, making it rather unwieldy?

4. If the answer to Question 3 is "no," please let us know if you wish to modify this requirement to specify a protective case for a lesser number of 44 ton capacity airbag elements (with a commensurate increase in the quantity of protective cases required).

Answer: The Government is aware of the size/weight of the cases requested and confirms there is no error on the requirement. Please follow the requirements on the solicitation.

Question 3:

The requirements for the “Airlifting Bag Protective Case 15T/26T/44T” state that they must be made of canvas material and must be weather resistant. Are you looking specifically for canvas material only or is a vendor allowed to make an offer for a material that has similar characteristics?

Answer: Please abide by the requirements of the solicitation which states, “Must be canvas material”.
