- Description
- NOTE: The due date for quotes is being extended to 13 March 2015. Below is a list of questions and answers regarding the product specifications: Question 01: Is the approximate mat assembly weight 3,100 lbs? Based upon the specifications listed, this number appears low. Answer 01: This number is approximate. The actual product weight may be greater and is allowable. Question 02: Are the 54 pre-attached joining panel lower bushings listed in the description of requirements additional items or are they included in the FFM mat? Answer 02: The 54 pre-attached joining panel lower bushings are pre-attached to the panels as per the specification drawings. Please note, any quote must include the required upper joining bushings and anchor bushings. Question 03: Are the deviations from MIL DTL 32265 expected to become the new standard/specification for an FFM kit? Answer 03: This determination has not been made at this time and this deviation should not be considered permanent. Question 04: Can you list the National Stock Number for each item being purchased? Answer 04: Refer to the description of requirements for details on the items being purchased. Question 05: Will a new National Stock Number be created for the combination of several National Stock Numbers into one package? Answer 05: No, a new National Stock Number will not result from this purchase. Question 06: Can you specify the packaging required for the bolts, anchor bushings and joining bushings? Answer 06: Bolts, anchor bushings, and joining bushings should be packaged in M2A1 ammunition boxes (NSN 8140-00-960-1699) in quantities of 25 each for bushings and practical quantities of bolts. Each ammunition box should be clearly stenciled with a description of contents and quantity of contents in white weather resistant paint. Note that one box of anchor bushings will only have 12 bushings and one box of joining bushings will only have 10 bushings because of the quantity ordered. Question 07: Will the deviations from the MIL-DTL-32265 combined with the creation of a new kit indicate that this is a non-commercial item? Answer 07: Clarification is required to fully answer this question. The product should be manufactured according to MTL-DTL-32265 with noted exceptions. Further deviations are not allowed.
