- Description
- This amendment provides responses to questions regarding Solicitation H92239-08-T-0010. 1. Does the product have a pattern date/ Drawings or specs or does the potential Supplier have to develop a design? The intent of this solicitation is to purchase "off-the-shelf" items meeting or exceeding the minimum specifications provided in the RFQ. Market research indicated that these items are readily available in the marketplace and this solicitation should not be construed as a requirement to develop new or custom-made items. Offerors should propose products that conform to the item description considering that a best value determination will be made considering the product's durability, fit, and overall capability to protect the weapon. Alternate submissions are encouraged and will be accepted. Offerors should review the evaluation criteria and note that failure to provide descriptive material may be a basis for elimination from competition. 2. Is there a MIL spec for the vinyl material or any of the components? No, there is not a MIL spec. The requirement for ?vinyl reinforced polyester or like durable material? conveys that probable product life under environmental exposure will be considered in the technical evaluation. 3. What is the delivery date and/or lead time? Desired delivery is 30 days ARO. 4. Does this product have a NSN number? No 5.
