MANUFACTURE VIRGINIA CLASS (SSN 774) LET AND LPT DOG SHACK HATCH COVERS

EDITED 8/27/26: Revised reference 2.1 and answer bidder's questions:

1. Question: FRAME AND SCOPE. We understand these covers are fabric enclosures fitted over an existing government-owned dog shack frame, and that no frame, poles, or supporting structure fall within the contractor's scope. Please confirm.

Answer: Confirmed.  Cover only.

2. Question: DEPTH DIMENSION. On Reference 2.1 the LET full view is annotated 67" and 109" along the base and upper edges. Please confirm which dimension is the overall depth of the enclosure. For reference, we compute the rafter length as 52.2" from the 98" width and the 96"/78" heights, which matches the annotation on Reference 2.2 for the LPT.

Answer: The correct dimension is 52.2”. Rev drawing attached.

3. Question: FABRIC. The requirements specify grey Sunbrella. Please confirm whether a specific Sunbrella style and color number is required, or whether any marine-grade Sunbrella in a grey shade is acceptable.

Answer: Any marine grade grey Sunbrella is acceptable.
