- Description
- The Marine Corps Systems Command, Quantico, Virginia seeks sources and information for Integrated Trailer-Generator-Environmental Control Unit systems. A USMC need is emerging for an integrated system that includes a diesel engine-generator set, Environmental Control Unit (ECU), and off-road capable trailer, capable of sustained operation in temperatures ranging from -20 degrees F to +125 degrees F. Additional stowage space for other missions equipment on the trailer is strongly desired (such as for a tent). The diesel/JP-8 fueled engine-generator set shall provide between 20-40 kW of, 120/208 VAC, 3-phase, 60 Hz, 0.8 PF. Of this electrical power, 65% will be consumed by the ECU that shall be able to provide at least 100,000 BTU/hr of air conditioning and 60,000 BTU/hr of heating capacity. The system shall be trailer mounted and suitable for tow behind a HMMWV in severe off-road conditions (70% off-road, 30% on-road), shall be capable of 30-inch water-fording with no preparation, and 60-inch water-fording (salt water) with no more than 30 minutes preparation. The system shall provide for anti-wet-stacking of the engine under partial electrical load condition down to 30% electrical output. It is a desired capability to operate in parallel two generators for simultaneous and additive capability. General Services Administration (GSA) Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) may be an appropriate method for these supplies and services (Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 8.0 and 8.4). Commercial firms possessing the characteristics noted in any of the above systems are encouraged and invited to submit the following: (1) Product brochures and pricing materials outlining specifications, to include a statement of capabilities, (2) current GSA contract information regarding unit pricing and discounts. Responses will be reviewed to identify firms potentially capable of fulfilling the Governments requirements. This sources-sought / Request For Information (RFI) is for planning purposes only and shall not be construed as a Request For Proposal or as an obligation on the part of the Government to acquire follow-on acquisition. The Government does not intend to award a contract on the basis of this RFI, or otherwise pay for the information requested. No entitlement to payment of direct or indirect costs or charges by the Government will arise as a result of submission of responses to this RFI and Government use of such information. The Government recognizes that proprietary data may be part of this effort. If so included, clearly mark such restricted or proprietary data and present it as an addendum to the non-restricted/non-proprietary information. Responses to this RFI shall be mailed to Marine Corps Systems Command, Attn: Gabrielle Trickett-GTES-EPS, 2200 Lester Ave, Quantico, VA 22134-6050 no later than 15 Jan, 2004. FEDEX or UPS deliveries should be sent to MARCORSYSCOM Material Management, Attn: Gabrielle Trickett-GTES-EPS, 2201A Willis St, Quantico, VA 22134-6050.
