- Description
- The Coastal Systems Station, Dahlgren Division, NSWC, Panama City, FL 32407-7001 intends to award a purchase order on a sole-source basis to the University of Virginia (UVA) Impact Biomechanics Program (UVA IBP) for development biodynamic models that can be used to predict human dynamic response to various inputs, applicable to the complex seated, leaning, and standing postures assumed by the Special Operations Craft occupants. This purchase order is unsuitable for full and open competition for the following reasons. The University of Virginia (UVA) Impact Biomechanics Program (UVA IBP) possesses the unique knowledge and skills to perform the work required. The UVA IBP has had long-term exposure to the NSW combatant craft community through visits and interviews with Special Boat Squadron boat operators and medical officers over the past several years. The UVA IBP possesses u nique and in-depth experience with the selected lumped-mass whole body model; specifically the MADYMO model developed by TNO, Inc. UVA, moreover, was selected by TNO, Inc. to participate in development of the model. The UVA IBP possesses unique algorithms and capability to process the 6-DOF dynamics data and synchronized video to extract low frequency roll and pitch head/hip degrees of freedom data. The UVA IBP possesses unique algorithms to analyze time-synchronized video to develop an improved understanding of the relationship between dynamics and injury in the NSW combatant craft environment. For these reasons, the UVA IBP is uniquely qualified to perform the work described in SOW Human Impact Biodynamics Modeling. There are no other known sources that could accomplish this effort without a significant learning curve delay and additional expense to the Government. The N AICS is 541710 and small business size standard is 500 employees. This synopsis can be found at: www.ncsc.navy.mil/contracts/ztables/syntable.htm.
