The U.S. Army Soldier and Biological Chemical Command (SBCCOM) -- Soldier Systems Center (SSC) -- Natick MA is conducting a market investigation to identify sources capable of providing structural closure systems for chemical and biological hardened tentage.

These closures would be used in entryways/airlocks, duct connections, and modular liner connections. Closure halves should be fully separable, not connected at either termination point. Firms may submit concept papers, product literature, samples, etc. However, any information submitted will not be returned. If a firm chooses to submit samples, the Government will make no payment for such samples or for any data submitted. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL.
