- Description
- SOW The U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) Engineering Logistics Center (ELC) has a follow-on requirement for engineering services in support of USCG High Speed Naval Vessel (HSNV) Loads Prediction for Finite Element Analysis (FEA) Applications. The objective of this effort is to integrate existing approaches and analysis tools for hydrodynamic load prediction using the time domain VERES wave loads prediction approach that will ultimately be used for FEA load application for cutter operational envelop definition and hull structural integrity and life maintenance strategies. The engineering services to be provided include Task 1 - Wave Bending and Impact Loads Prediction, Task 2 - Error Checking, Task 3 - User Interface, Task 4 - Test Approach in accordance with the attached statement of work. The USCG intends to award a sole source firm fixed price contract to DET NORSKE VERITAS. It is the Government's belief that DNV/Marintek, Sintef Group, located in Trondheim, Norway is the only contractor who possesses world wide expertise and experience in the application of state of the art analytical and experimental tools for predicting hydrodynamic loads and response to waves. This expertise is essential for the evaluation of hydrodynamic response and slamming events critical for designing the structural integrity and mission effectiveness of HSNV. DNV/Marintek has developed a proprietary approach for predicting the loading and response of HSNV named VERES that is uniquely suited for the USCG application. No other sources have the technical qualifications and necessary resources to perform the work described herein, nor will any other services satisfy the Government requirements. Concerns having the expertise and required capabilities to furnish the above services are invited to submit complete information discussing the same in duplicate within 5 days of this announcement. Concerns that respond to this notice must fully demonstrate the capability to accomplish the above and are to supply pertinent information in sufficient detail to demonstrate a bona fide capability to meet the requirements. Alternate proposal data must include sufficient information to allow the Coast Guard to evaluate. The Coast Guard does not intend to pay for information solicited. Responses shall be submitted within 5 days of this announcement. Responses must be concise and specific to the requirements mentioned above. The submission of data for review shall not impede award of a contract. This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial services and is prepared in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; a price quotation is being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. Quotation shall include the firm fixed price for providing the engineering services listed in the attached statement of work for the Coast Guard. The solicitation number is HSCG40-10-Q-13002. Closing date for quotation is 30 August 2010. The solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 2005-26.
