CAD-BIM-Files_Instructions.txt

CAD/BIM files developed for the RFP can be obtained for use in preparation of proposals by contacting Bill Rawe, william.t.rawe@usace.army.mil and Christine Wilson, christine.l.wilson@usace.army.mil. Request for CAD/BIM files must contain a name and email address; a notification email with a link and instructions on how to pick up the files will be sent from ARL Secure Access File Exchange (SAFE). The recipient has 4 days to pick-up the files. Each night, drop-offs that are older than 4 days are removed from the system.

Problems accessing the ARL Secure Access File Exchange (SAFE) site by external (non-CAC) users are typically due to SSL and/or client certificate issues. If the user receives a warning about a problem with the website's security certificate, this is because their browser is not configured to trust the DoD certificate authorities. The user can either import the DoD certificate authorities or they can accept the risk and click on the option to continue to the website.

Also on non-CAC system - if the browser pops up a window prompting for a certificate to use for authentication, clicking on Cancel should allow unauthenticated access to the site
