This document is a Salient Characteristics certification and contracting form for a federal procurement requirement issued by the Army Research Laboratory (ARL).

The ARL seeks two rugged rackmount cases to transport and protect sensitive electronics. The cases must meet specific technical specifications: accommodate electronics measuring six (6) U in height and mountable in standard 19-inch width racks with a maximum depth of 34 inches; provide protection against mechanical shock and vibration; thermoelectrically control internal case temperature between 15 and 30 degrees Celsius across ambient external temperatures ranging from negative 10 to 38 degrees Celsius while managing an internal heat load not exceeding 200 watts; and operate on standard 120 volt AC electrical power using a NEMA 5-15P plug. The Technical Point of Contact (TPOC) has certified that all salient characteristics are commercially available. The Contracting Officer, Swati Jain, signed the document on 7/30/2026.
