FORTS 38 
C-FORTS 96 
ACE 463L UTILITY OPERATIONS
Bring command closer
to the work.
An owned, movable facility for restoration coordination, crew briefings and field operations. Configure the workspace, support systems and transport around how your utility operates.
Workspace at the response.
Plan field facilities around operating locations and the people working there.
A complete working layout.
Bring desks, briefing areas, equipment and support space into one plan.
An asset for the next response.
Own a reusable field facility, with replaceable wall panels and refurbishment options for continued service.
ACTUAL UTILITY USE
See it open.
See why it moves.
Tampa Electric’s deployment film shows a FORTS 38 opening at the work site. Its published customer story describes portable field offices supporting incident bases.
Single-building setup. Timing depends on configuration, crew and site conditions. Placement, site connections and equipment setup are planned for your facility.
TANDEM / CONNECTED UNITS
A response grows.
The workspace can too.
Bring briefing, coordination and focused work into a connected facility when one shelter is not enough. Prepared FORTS 38 units connect in tandem; C-FORTS units offer their own prepared tandem configuration.
- Keep functions together
- Connect the spaces that crews and coordinators move between most often.
- Plan the larger deployment
- Review positioning, site power, vehicle routes and support equipment for the complete facility.
PLAN AROUND THE OPERATING TEAM
A place to coordinate.
Room to concentrate.
Combine shared coordination space with private work areas, storage and selected support features. Bring radios, networking, display and power requirements into the layout discussion.
ONE APPLICATION. A CHOICE OF PLATFORMS.
One field operation.
More than one starting point.
A crew workspace, a restoration command center and a larger coordination facility can call for different shelter and transport packages.
FOLD-OUT SHELTER
A single-unit response base.
A folding workspace with a compact travel arrangement and a matched mechanical Mobilizer. The TECO video shows an actual shelter opening at a field site.
- Working area
- ≈270 sq ft
- Transport approach
- Mechanical Mobilizer or planned freight handling
Areas are rounded catalog references. Layout, equipped weight and supplied systems are confirmed for your selected configuration.
A WORKSPACE WITHIN THE RESPONSE
Bring the team together.
Keep the operation moving.
A conditioned workspace gives coordinators a place for briefings, reporting and sustained field work within the staging operation. Insulated hard-wall construction, workstations and the selected power and HVAC package turn the shelter into an operating base.
- The coordination inside
- Briefings, workstations and communications belong in the same operating plan.
- The activity outside
- Allow for vehicle routes, crew access, support equipment and the next move.
THE MOBILIZER ADVANTAGE
Leave the facility.
Move the trailer.
Choose a mechanical Mobilizer for the FORTS 38 or a matched hydraulic Mobilizer for C-FORTS. Define the equipped load, tow vehicle and site requirements with the facility.
How are the two Mobilizers different?
FORTS 38 uses a mechanical system that does not require hydraulic lifting. C-FORTS uses a matched hydraulic system for its containerized platform. Both are options for loading and unloading applicable single-unit packages without a forklift.
What needs to be ready at the field site?
Plan vehicle access, working clearance, placement and the source of power. Communications equipment and connectivity should be defined with the people who operate the facility.

BEFORE YOU BUY
Can it support daily operations and storm response?
Discuss both uses when defining the primary job, layout, equipment and operating locations.
Are power generation and communications included?
The selected package determines the scope. Confirm external power, communications hardware, connectivity and customer-supplied systems in the proposal.
Can our team deploy without a forklift?
Matched Mobilizer systems are available for applicable single-unit FORTS 38 and C-FORTS configurations. Larger facilities may require other handling arrangements.
Can we add more working space?
Prepared FORTS 38 or C-FORTS units can form tandem configurations. Ask FORTS to review the selected platform and connection arrangement.
