- Description
- Solicitation N00421-T-0041 is issued as a request for quote (RFQ). The Government intends to purchase on a firm fixed-price basis and to solicit and negotiate the proposed purchase order on a competitive basics., The descriptions listed below, under the authority of FAR Part 13.104. A.) Background In order to maintain the test cells in the Propulsion Systems Evaluation Facility (PSEF), a laser alignment measuring system that aligns rotating shafts on test articles and other components is critical to test installations. Currently, the Propulsion Systems Evaluation Facility uses dial indicators and alignment shafts for the alignment procedures. Using the dial indicators and alignment shafts takes an extended amount of time. This laser alignment system will potentially reduce the amount of time and effort to align and install test assets in each test cell and reduce the risk of damaging these assets. Also, the laser alignment tools are reduced in size and are applicable to many of our propulsion systems and test cells. PSEF has a requirement to align high speed rotating shafts on various types of equipment. The minimum requirements are listed below. B.) Minimum Technical Requirements 1. Provide a Laser Alignment System with the ability to align rotating shafts (large and small) and similar components. The system will have the ability to be attached to shafts and rotating components from 1 to 10 inches in diameter and a range of 1 inch to 25 ft from source to receiver. 2. Provide Supporting Equipment a. Small/Thin clamping devices which support the Laser alignment tools in a 1-2 inch space. (smallest footprint possible for maximum range of movement) b. The system will be able to align a rotating component and will sweep no more than 90 Degrees for a complete alignment procedure. This minimal degree of rotation will provide an advantage if there is a section hindering the movement of the equipment. c. In order to fulfill the requirement of being wireless, remote control capability is needed between the laser and the control console. This will mitigate and avoid any alignment issues when having unnecessary wires attached to the components. The control console must be powered independently and wireless. d. Magnetic/Link/Chain Bracket System that attaches the rotating component in a tight and secure manner in order to avoid inaccurate readings. This system will be able to attach to all types of rotating shafts (metal, non-metal). e. Software Package compatible with Windows XP service pack 2. This software will display any calculated values, graphical illustrations, and be capable of printing documents once transferred to the PC. This software must be applicable with the following hardware: Intel Core 2 Duo 2 GHz, 1 GB RAM, 256 Video Card RAM, and a 24 X CDRW-DVD Combo drive. f. Ability to store data and create archive files onto a PC (deliver data via USB connection). 3. Provide a Training course at the Propulsion Systems Evaluation Facility (1-2 day training for 8 members). Training will occur within 2 weeks of the delivery. 4. Provide three Hardcopy Instruction Manuals and one electronic copy. These will include detailed procedures to use the equipment and software applications when aligning rotating systems. 5. Provide a minimum of a 1 year warranty (parts and labor) from time of arrival. The Laser Alignment equipment will be delivered either via insured (full value) express mail delivery (2-3 day) and/or hand delivered. For equipment failure/malfunction, there will be a 2 week turnaround from the Contractor’s date of receipt. C.) Deliverables The Laser alignment system and all supporting equipment are to be delivered to the PSEF building at the Patuxent River Naval Air Station. Mailing Address: Propulsion Systems Evaluation Facility 22229 Elmer Road Building 2360 Patuxent River, MD 20670 D.) Delivery Date The contractor shall deliver the Laser Alignment System no later than 30 calendar days post contract award. Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. This notice of intent is a request for competitive proposals. However, all proposals received by 4 March 2009 will be considered by the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. The Government will not pay for any information received. Facsimile proposals are acceptable. For information contact Francine Keys, Telephone (301) 757-9057, FAX (301) 757-8959
