The objective of these projects supported by the contracted employee is to develop and deliver world class leading edge food service equipment systems and technologies to all four services. The Natick Soldier Research Development and Engineering Center's (NSRDEC) Combat Feeding Directorate (CFD) projects require product development engineering and specialized agricultural preservation expertise, systems modeling, process simulation, structural and thermal Analysis of Food Service Equipment and Systems to exceed user requirements and to support the DoD Combat Feeding Research and Engineering Program (CFREP). Engineering Services are required to provide specialized product and systems engineering services to design, develop, field, and sustain both field feeding equipment and ration preservation systems to meet Joint Services unique requirements. Senior (Sr.). Mechanical Engineering and Sr. Program support will utilize Solidworks modeling software (CAD), Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and advanced ration modeling software development to aid in the design, development and application of shipboard and ground based field feeding/refrigeration technologies and systems. 3D Modeling Software will be utilized to develop conceptual food service equipment models. Once developed, heat transfer analysis and Finite Element Analysis will be used to evaluate the design to meet the warfighters functional and operational requirements and to perform mathematical analysis using tools such as MATLAB and MATHCAD. The successful offeror, as an independent contractor and not as an agent of the Government, shall provide the necessary resources (except those furnished by the Government) to accomplish tasks of the type set forth in the Performance Work Statement found in Addendum 1 to 52.212-4 of this combined synopsis/solicitation.
