- Description
- ITEM UNIQUE IDENTIFICATION MARKING PRODUCTS REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) as defined in the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 15.201. The Naval Surface Warfare Center, Corona Division (NSWC, Corona), is conducting a market survey to obtain information on available Item Unique Identification (IUID) marking products. All interested sources may participate. The IUID Center at NSWC, Corona has been tasked by the Director of the Administrative/Fiscal Division in the Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Financial Management and Comptroller) to conduct a follow-on environmental survivability study of available IUID marking products and to provide technical performance data to the community. The original study can be found at: www.acq.osd.mil/dpap/pdi/uid/docs/IUID_Environmental_Survivability_Testing_Report.pdf. The follow-on study will contain many of the tests from the original study. The follow-on study will expand beyond the scope of the original study to include direct part marking methods. Additional tests will be performed including UV exposure of printed materials. Samples are to be provided at no charge. Samples will not be returned to the vendor after testing. Test results will be shared with the IUID community for consideration in their decision making processes. IUID implementation strategies and product selection may be influenced by the results of these environmental survivability studies resulting in the possibility of future contract awards. Please contact the IUID Center for lists of the material properties that will be tested and an outline of the test plan. Sample quantity, data matrix details, and label or data plate size requirements will be provided. The IUID Center contact is Aaron Wiest at 951-273-4819 or at aaron.wiest@navy.mil. In order to be considered for the testing, all samples must be received by the IUID Center no later than 10 December 2011. All samples shall be sent to: If by shipper (e.g., UPS, FEDEX, etc.): NAVAL SURFACE WARFARE CENTER CORONA DIVISION ATTN: IUID CENTER (PE11), BLDG. 519 1999 FOURTH STREET NORCO, CA 92860-1915 If by United States Postal Service (USPS): NAVAL SURFACE WARFARE CENTER CORONA DIVISION ATTN: IUID CENTER (PE11), BLDG. 519 P.
