Description: This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation Proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. This solicitation will be evaluated and awarded per the prescribed procedures of FAR Part 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures. The solicitation number for this procurement is FA4803-10-Q-A262 and is issued as a Request for Quotation (RFQ). This solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through the Federal Acquisition Circular (FAC) 2005-44, Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement Change Notice (DCN) 20091229 and Air Force Acquisition Circular (AFAC) 2010-0402. The North American Industry Classification System code for this acquisition is 332312, Fabricated Structural Metal Manufacturing with a Small Business Size Standard of 500 Employees. This acquisition is a 100% Small Business Set Aside. This is Firm Fixed Price procurement and will be procured using commercial item procedures and award will be based on price. The following items are required: 1. 1 Each - SA-15 Tor Target, including target trailer, infrared heat package, rotating sail package (8RPM), leveling devices, ground anchor and tie down straps 2. 1 Each - SA-6 Straight Flush Target, including target trailer, infrared heat package, rotating sail package (8RPM), leveling devised, ground anchor and tie down straps 3. 1 Lump Sum - Delivery Description: The following describes the SA-15 Tor and SA-6 Straight Flush targets: Each will be integrated onto a trailer. The SA-15 Tor and SA-6 Straight Flush's dimensions will be life size (information taken from multiple unclassified sources). The targets will be 8 ½ feet (102 inches) wide (with little or no variations). This is the maximum DOT width allowed without an oversize permit for hauling. This will facilitate the movement of the targets on paved surfaces and be of considerable advantage for range movement flexibility. However, the target's lengths and heights will replicate real-world dimensions. The target's frame will be constructed of galvanized tubular steel precisely welded to ensure strength and durability. The target's exterior will be comprised of 18 and 24 gauge brake formed galvanized sheet metal securely attached with self-tapping screws to the tubular steel frame. To support range configuration changes, each target will be mobile and will be securely integrated onto a tandem axle trailer with electric brakes and DOT approved lights with a 2 inch ball tongue. The target and trailer will be considered one integral unit. Each target will be designed to be lifted with a standard forklift capable of lifting 4000 pounds. The unit will have "leveling" devices in order to ensure the targets are stabilized and leveled at the destination site. Anchors and tie down straps will be furnished to stabilize the target to the ground. The trailer's tongue will have a "detachable, slide in" option which will allow the tongue to be removed (if desired) after target set up. If tongue removal is not desired, camouflage netting will also be supplied by contractor and can be used to break up the tongue's profile. The SA-15 Tor and SA-6 Straight Flush targets will be integrated into the trailers in such a way that the trailers will have a very low profile with targets "overlapping" many parts of the trailers. The target tongue will be painted the color of the target. The finished target will be primed and painted in a camouflage pattern. Camouflage netting can be used to cover the minimally exposed sections of the trailer, if needed. Targets will be constructed to withstand 70 mph wind gusts. The SA-6 Rotating Straight Flush target and Tor SA-15 target will have an operational rotating sail and withstand wind load of 35 knots. Set up instructions will be provided. Infrared Signature System: The targets will be constructed with an infrared signature generator with consideration for signature optimization. The infrared unit will operate on 120 VAC, which will be provided from the local site or by a portable generator. The infrared unit is capable of remote turn-on and turn-off by phone line using a call-in control unit (DTMF). A timer will be included in the electrical circuit that can be set by the customer to remove power to the infrared signature generator after a set period of time, once turned on. This will prevent power from being left on for extended periods unintentionally. The infrared signature generator will consist of heating lamps, rheostats for temperature control, timer/relay, and a DTMF control mounted inside 24 Gauge sheet metal box(s) with a 50 ft power cord installed in the target's undercarriage. This allows heat to be applied to the underside of the top sheet metal and provides a heat signature in the engine compartment as required. Sail Rotation System: The targets will be constructed with a rotation sail section with the top dish in a fixed position. The sail will rotate at a maximum speed of 8 RPM. The rotating mechanism will consist of sealed bearings with a 120 VAC electric motor and the proper gearing to achieve the rotation speed. The rotation unit will be capable of remote turn-on and turn-off by phone line using a call-in control unit (DTMF). A timer will be included in the electrical circuit that can be set by the customer to remove power to the sail rotation system after a set period of time, once turned on. This will prevent power from being left on for extended periods unintentionally. The Sail Rotation system will be rated for a maximum wind speed of 35 knots. With power in the OFF position, target will withstand winds in excess of 70 MPH. Previous Questions and Answers: Below are the questions from a prior similar acquisition: Question: It would seem that the sail section of the rotating sail radar mechanism on the SA-6 Straight flush would need to fold down for transport, is this ok? Answer: Yes, a folding sail is ok. Question: Would you please specify the number of heating lamps for the signature generator. This would give me the amps for the power cord. Answer: No exact number of heat lamps required, but the customer would like enough to heat the engine compartment and crew cab. Question: How large a box for the controls would you like? Do I compartmentalize this so as not to expose the timer relay and DTMF control to excessive heat? Or would like separate boxes for controls and heat lamps. Answer: The box size is not specified, but the customer would like the controls and heat lamps in separate compartments. Question: Are there any drawings for this work? If not, is this a design and build project? Have the target trailers to this specification been manufactured before? Answer: There are no specification drawings for this project. This is meant to be a simple commodity buy, so no, it is NOT a design/build project. We purchased targets meeting these specifications last year.
