Title: Storage Solution An advanced contract award notice (ACAN) is a public notice indicating to the supplier community that a department or agency intends to award a contract for goods, services or construction to a pre-identified supplier, thereby allowing other suppliers to signal their interest in bidding, by submitting a statement of capabilities. If no supplier submits a statement of capabilities that meets the requirements set out in the ACAN, on or before the closing date and time stated in the ACAN, the contracting officer may then proceed with the award to the pre-identified supplier. 2. Definition of requirement: The Department of National Defence 8th Air Communications Squadron Bagot Ville, QC has a requirement to procure cages to store and secure material, tools and test equipment while maintaining the capability to transition seamlessly to intermodal containers and air pallet. Cages must have capability to: Secure material Provide capability for visual inspection Withstand harsh climate condition with little or no degradation, preferable with hot dip galvanization. Cages must be anti-sparking. Cages must be portable using existing material handling equipment (pallet jacks/forklifts) with additional top lift capability.

Mobility: Must allow for 4-way forklift capability with pallet jacks. Designed to fulfill both STANAG-2828 as well as MIL-STS-648D to ensure operability in joint operations. Must provide top-lift capability with reinforced corner posts and connection points to accommodate crane, helicopter lift and UNREP according to MIL-STD-913A, -209K and -648D. Critical weld seams inspected according to RCX-3 to ensure safety. Strong enough for all modes of strategic transport, designed according to MIL-STD-1791D, and -1366E. Flexibility: Rearrange without emptying the cages. Cages must allow easy repositioning of parts, tools and test equipment next to the required point of work. For maintenance operational checks, cages with parts, tools and test equipment can be easily moved to maintenance locations. Security and Durability: Cages can be locked using standard issue series 6200 padlocks. Must be highly durable by using extra high-strength steel and hot dip galvanization to withstand any type of climate and handling. 4.
