- Description
- This is a SOURCES SOUGHT SYNOPSIS for white papers. This publication constitutes a request for information (RFI) and no formal request for proposals (RFP), solicitation, and/or additional information regarding this request will be issued. The Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) will not issue paper copies of this request. This is not a commitment to fund any effort submitted in response to this request. The Government may consider procurement of materials, equipment, or services as a result of the information provided in response to this request. The Government will not reimburse any costs associated with the development and submission of materials in response to this request. The Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) seeks white papers from private industry, academia, and government entities regarding alternative thermal spray technology to replace current coating systems for non-skid applications on U.S. Navy ships. These applications include, for example, aviation decks, weather decks, and interior decks. These alternative thermal spray technologies sought must be capable of providing durability that exceeds current requirements for a Type V, Composition G or L (36 months of service or 15,000 landings) as defined in the version of MIL-PRF-24667 found at https://assist.daps.dla.mil/quicksearch/basic_profile.cfm?ident_number=107630. To accommodate the next generation of aircraft, the alternative nonskid material needs to also comply with anticipated high heat shipboard operational requirements. A desired thermal spray will need to cycle multiple times from no thermal load (ambient conditions) up to temperatures between 1,200 to 1,700 degrees Fahrenheit for ½ to 1 minute followed by 4 minutes with no heat load then re-heated. Based on information provided, the Government may request to perform limited testing at a Government laboratory as a pre-screening to determine if further consideration and evaluation are desired. Submissions White papers must be received no later than 1:00 p.m. Eastern on 14 January 2011 and responses received after that time will not be reviewed. Submissions are to include one original and must be of a length to adequately describe the technology recommended. White papers must be submitted via email, FEDEX, or UPS and must be addressed to: Mr. James Martin or Mr. John Wegand NRL Code 6130, ATTN: Alternative Non-skid Program 4555 Overlook Avenue, SW, Washington, DC 20375 E-mail address: james.martin@nrl.navy.mil or john.wegand@nrl.navy.mil. The U.S. Postal Services continues to irradiate letters, flats, Express and Priority mail with stamps for postage, and other packages with stamps for postage destined to Government agencies in the ZIP Code ranges 202 through 205. Due to potential delays in receiving mail, use alternatives to mail when submitting responses. Questions should be direct to Mr. James Martin at james.martin@nrl.navy.mil and Mr. John Wegand at john.wegand@nrl.navy.mil.
