All proposed solutions must be deliverable to the Aqaba Air Cargo Terminal at King Hussein International Airport in Aqaba, Jordan. Vendors are requested to submit three potential delivery options reflecting estimated timelines of 3 days, 15 days, and 30 days. Responses shall include a comprehensive description of the materials used in fabrication, including composition, structural design, and any reinforcement features. Vendors must also clearly identify the protection level of each proposed bunker, including the highest level of threat (e.g., blast force, fragmentation, or ballistic impact) the system is designed to withstand.

The USG’s review of documentation priorities are delivery timeline first, followed by protection level of the bunker systems.
