- Description
- The purpose of this modification is to provide the responses to industry questions concerning subject pre-solicitation notice. Accordingly, the following is provided: Q1: Can you confirm the class (color) of the pack? A1: The anticipated class of the USMC Pack system is Class 1 - Coyote Brown 498. Q2: "The NAICS code is 315299, All Other Cut and Sew Apparel Manufacturing, with a size standard of 500 employees." Does this mean that offerors must have less than 500 employees? A2: The size standard information was added as an oversight. The procurement is unrestricted - not reserved as a set-aside. Q3: I was doing a quick review of the pre solicitation notice for the USMC pack and if I ™m reading it correctly it will also include a Chest Rig, Multiple Pouches, hydration Bladders and a Water Filter System?? Is that correct? A3: With respect to your question, the following is provided: "Per the Draft Purchase Description Family of Load Bearing Equipment dated 8 April 2011, section 1.3, The USMC Pack will contain the following components: (1) main pack (1) assault pack (1) assault pouch (2) sustainment pouches (2) hydration pouches (1) hydration carrier (1) hydration bladder system (1) sternum cinch (1) sub-belt (1) repair kit (1) care and use manual The Main Pack will consist of one frame, one Shoulder Harness Assembly, one Hip Belt, and one Main Bag.

Q4: Is there any way go get the drawings prior to the release of the RFP? A4: Drawings will not be available until RFP release. Q5: Is there/ are there any packs you are looking at that could possibly be modeled after the current solicited pack? A5: No, the USMC Pack will be government owned design.
