Description

The USCG Engineering Logistics Center has a requirement for repair/refurbishment of the following: 1) NSN 2920-12-305-2407, ELECTRICAL ENGINE STARTER, BOSCH SICHERHEITSSYSTEME GMBH Part number: 680S638P01, Quantity 4 each in accordance with the following overhaul description: PRELIMINARY INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS: Each Starter Motor shall be inspected as received to determine the extent of required repairs. The contractor shall provide a cost estimate that includes all labor hours, material and parts to overhaul/repair the Starter Motor. The serial number of the Starter Motor shall be included on the cost estimate. Additionally, each Starter Motor shall be inspected and verified to have a thirteen (13) tooth bendix drive gear and a five (5) lug terminal configuration. If the bendix drive gear or terminal lug configuration is not as stated, no further work shall be accomplished and the U.S. Coast Guard Contracting Officer shall be notified. OVERHAUL REQUIREMENT: The Starter Motor shall be overhauled/repaired to a condition which shall restore the operating and performance characteristics to the Robert Bosch GMBH Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) design specifications and standards. The overhaul shall be performed in accordance with OEM specifications and standards to include upgrades as applicable. QUALITY ASSURANCE: Each Starter Motor shall have a tag attached to a connection terminal annotating the overhaul facility name and address. Each Starter Motor shall have a tag attached to terminal 50 with instructions for the end user to ensure the jam nut is properly secured while tightening down the terminal cable hold-down nut. After completion of the overhaul/repair of the Starter Motor, the contractor shall perform standard production tests to assure maximum design performance to include but not limited to the following tests: Each terminal on each Starter Motor shall be checked for its ground wall insulation resistance value to the Starter Motor case after final assembly using a 500 volt meggohmeter. The final test reading shall not be less than 100 meggohms on a meter scale of R x 1000 minimum. The megger shall have a current calibration which shall not have exceeded one year since the previous calibration. Prior to conducting the test, both megger test leads shall be attached to the Starter Motor case and a reading of zero ohms shall be obtained, thus assuring an adequate ground connection to the Starter Motor case. The ground lead shall remain connected and NOT be removed or relocated prior to any insulation resistance test. If the ground lead is removed for ANY reason, the Starter Motor zero reading shall be verified using the procedure described above prior to the final test. When insulation is exposed to a humid atmosphere, it absorbs moisture and the insulation resistance decreases. Additionally, the amount of moisture absorption is increased by the amount of time the insulation is exposed to a humid atmosphere. The resistance value also depends upon the type of insulation and its condition. Since moisture may be driven off or evaporated by the application of heat, the insulation resistance of a winding having a low resistance reading, due to the presence of moisture, may be restored by energizing or externally heating the winding. Therefore, the Starter Motor can be heated prior to the test. Regardless of the test conditions, the Starter Motor shall not have a resistance value below 100 meggohms. The contractor may, at his discretion, conduct the test in a controlled environment. After any application of heat to the Starter Motor?s exterior, the Starter Motor shall be allowed to cool to ambient temperature, prior to the final pass fail insulation resistance test. (Pass=greater than 100 meggohms). The contractor shall provide a Certificate of Conformance for each Starter Motor; one copy shall be placed in each box with the Starter Motor and one copy shall be forwarded to the Coast Guard Contracting Officer. WARRANTY: __X_ A. Standard Manufacturers Warranty ____ B. Item being repaired as an “onboard repair” or “system stock” item and will be put into inventory. NOT FOR IMMEDIATE INSTALLATION. Contractor must guarantee item against defects that lead to failure for 90 days after installation for a period of up two (2) years after delivery to Coast Guard. PRESERVATION: Each Starter Motor shall be coated on the external surfaces with white paint to a dry film thickness of 3-5 mils. PRESERVATION / PACKAGING: PACKAGING/PACKING: Each Starter Motor shall be individually packed in a wooden box with internal bracing which shall be capable of providing adequate protection during storage and multiple shipments. The shaft of each Starter Motor shall be blocked and protected so that force applied in any direction during shipping and handling will not cause damage to the shaft.

Copies of CGAP clauses may be obtained electronically at: www.uscg.mil/acquisition/procurement/pdf/CIM_4200_19H.pdf Ombudsman Program The Coast Guard Ombudsman Program for Agency Protests is a program intended to encourage interested parties to seek resolution of their concerns informally within the Coast Guard as an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) forum, rather than filing a protest with the General Accounting Office (GAO) or other external forum. It is designed to resolve contractor protests in a faster, less expensive manner than could be accomplished at an external forum. Concerns of interested parties can be resolved through independent, government binding adjudication taking place outside the procuring activity's chain of command. Filing Agency Protests It is the policy of the United States Coast Guard (USCG) to issue solicitations and make contract awards in a fair and timely manner. The Ombudsman Program for Agency Protests (OPAP) was established to investigate agency protest issues and resolve them without expensive and time-consuming litigation. OPAP is an independent reviewing authority that is empowered to grant a prevailing protester essentially the same relief as the General Accountability Office (GAO). Interested parties are encouraged to seek resolution of their concerns within the USCG as an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) forum, rather than filing a protest with the GAO or some external forum. Interested parties may seek resolution of their concerns informally or opt to file a formal agency protest with the contracting officer or Ombudsman. Informal forum with the Ombudsman: Interested parties who believe a specific USCG procurement is unfair or otherwise defective should first direct their concerns to the cognizant contracting officer. If the contracting officer is unable to satisfy the concerns, the interested party is encouraged to contact the USCG Ombudsman for Agency Protests. Under this informal process, the agency is not required to suspend contract award performance. Use of an informal forum does not suspend any time requirement for filing a protest with the agency or other forum. In order to ensure a timely response, interested parties should provide the following information to the Ombudsman: solicitation/contract number, contracting office, contracting officer, and solicitation closing date (if applicable). Formal Agency Protest with the Ombudsman: Prior to submitting a formal agency protest, protesters must first use their best efforts to resolve their concerns with the contracting officer through open and frank discussions. If the protester’s concerns are unresolved, an independent review is available by the Ombudsman. The protester may file a formal agency protest to either the contracting officer or as an alternative to that, the Ombudsman under the OPAP program. Contract award or performance will be suspended during the protest period unless contract award or performance is justified, in writing, for urgent and compelling reasons or is determined in writing to be in the best interest of the Government. The agency’s goal is to resolve protests in less than 35 calendar days from the date of filing. Protests shall include the information set forth in FAR 33.103. If the protester fails to submit the required information, resolution of the protest may be delayed or the protest may be dismissed. This will not preclude re-filing of the protest to meet the requirement. To be timely, protests must be filed within the period specified in FAR 33.103(e). Formal protests filed under the OPAP program should be submitted to: Department of Homeland Security United States Coast Guard (CG-9131) Ombudsman Program for Agency Protests 1900 Half Street, SW, Room 11-0602 Washington, D. C. 20593-0001 FAX: 202.475.3904 The Ombudsman Hotline telephone number is 202.372.3695. CG-913Ombudsman@uscg.mil
