vehicles without reducing the operational performances of the
platform (AEV and ARV). The heat shield covers the operator's
compartment of the AEV and ARV which is approximately 3 meters
by 4 meters.
The complete heat shield shall provide an internal temperature
reduction of the platform of 25o Celsius with the addition of
the heat shield.
The complete heat shield shall be designed with hidden pockets
for the installation of anchor points and metallic strengthening
bars metal (anti-beating).
The complete design shall be done with adjustable magnetic
anchoring points for the fine fitting of the heat shield in

the requirements set out in the ACAN, the contracting authority
may then proceed with the award. However, should a Statement of
Capabilities be found to meet the requirements set out in the
ACAN, then the contracting authority will proceed to a full
tendering process.
Suppliers who consider themselves fully qualified and available
to provide the services/goods described herein, may submit a
statement of capabilities in writing to the contact person
identified in this Notice on or before the closing date of this
Notice. The statement of capabilities must clearly demonstrate
