- Description
- This synopsis is being posted to both the Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) webpage located at http://www.fbo.gov and the Navy Electronic Commerce on Line (NECO) website located at https://www.neco.navy.mil. While it is understood that FBO is the single point of entry for posting of synopsis and solicitations to the internet, NECO is the alternative in case FBO is unavailable. Please feel free to use either site to access information posted by the Naval Sea Systems Command. The Naval Surface Warfare Center, Dahlgren Division (NSWCDD), seeks to obtain market research information from sources capable of fully satisfying information from government, academia, and industry sources regarding novel solutions for the tanker protective system. The immediate objective is to survey and assess the most advanced Self Sealing Coupons to prevent leakage from tanker assets after ballistic impact from 0.50 caliber AP projectile impacting at 100 ft/s above muzzle velocity. The intention of the self sealing concept is that a material may be applied externally to a steel vessel containing a liquid. After an impact due to a 0.50 Cal. AP bullet where the bullet makes a complete penetration, the self-sealing material will close the entrance hole and either prevent or greatly reduce liquid spillage. A dependence on performance vs. temperature will also be studied. This market research is for informational purposes only and should not be construed as a commitment of any kind. Any information received, in whole or in part, may be used to create the resulting acquisition strategy for the proposed requirements. Responders will not be reimbursed for any information received and are encouraged not to provide proprietary data or business sensitive information as any information received may be used by the Government and/or released to the public. The Government is primarily focused on seeking suitable commercial and non-developmental items or commercial items that can be easily modified to meet existing Government requirements. If no such commercial/non-developmental items currently exist, the Government may entertain the procurement of developmental items based on the information received as a result of this market research. Specifications are provided on our home page at http://www.nswc.navy.mil/wwwDL/XD/Supply Sources capable of fully satisfying the above requirements should submit capability statements/expressions of interest providing the Government the necessary information to determine actual capability. At a minimum, this information should include: 1) identification of your company or organization, 2) your company?s or organization?s assertion of existing, full capability to meet proposed requirements, 3) business/contracts/marketing office point (s) of contact information, 4) notification of business size and/or special status and 5) any additional information that may be useful to the successful procurement of the requirements, if solicited. These expressions of interest shall adhere to a two (2) page submission limit, plus commercial marketing information or web links and all should be submitted to XDS11C, via email at dlgr_nswc_xds11@navy.mil. These should be submitted on or before 6 October 2006. This market research announcement should not be considered a commitment of any kind by the Government and individual correspondence should not be expected in advance of any resulting pre-solicitation notice for the proposed requirements. The Naval Surface Warfare Center, Dahlgren Division, Dahlgren Laboratory Procurement Division has implemented Electronic Commerce (EC) in the acquisition area; therefore, this synopsis will be available on the World Wide Web at http://www.nswc.navy.mil/supply.
