Update #1 ·

Added: Jul 20, 2011 2:15 pm DLA Energy, as the Department of Defense (DoD) Integrated Materiel Manager (IMM) for Aerospace Energy Products and Services, requires delivery of 24 each International Standardization Organization (ISO) containers for compressed gaseous helium service which weigh less than 40,000 lbs and do not exceed 20 feet in overall length.
The compressed gas cylinders within each ISO shall be attached to a common gauged manifold with a single output port. The cylinders shall be tested and certified by a U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) authorized tester, and the certification must be effective a minimum of five years from date of first order. If cylinders are certified using the acoustic emissions test method, a copy of the DOT special permit must be provided. Paragraph 9 of the special permit shall contain authorization for the following modes of transportation, as a minimum, when transporting gaseous helium: motor vehicle, rail freight, cargo vessel, and cargo only aircraft.
In addition, the ISO containers shall meet the Air Transportability Test Load Activity (ATTLA) certification requirements for military airlift as a single unit (without a chassis). ATTLA will require additional D-Rings to be installed for airlift capability, and each D-ring must have a minimum working load capacity of 25,000 lbs. To meet minimum ATTLA requirements, each ISO (frame and tubes) must be able to withstand the following G-force aircraft accelerations without any deformation:

-- 3 G Forward
-- 1.5 G Aft and Lateral
-- 2 G Upwards
-- 4.5 G Downwards

Each ISO container shall have capability to be restrained and remain in place when subjected to the acceleration levels listed above. Analysis validating the structural capability of the tie down rings/provisions will be required. A point of contact for ATTLA will be included in the RFP.
Delivery shall be f.o.b. origin beginning in November 2011. DLA Energy plans to award multiple Indefinite Delivery - Indefinite Quantity Contracts. The procurement is a 100 % Set Aside for Small Business Concerns. A formal request for proposal (RFP) will be issued in the very near future.
