- Description
- POINT OF CONTACT IS MR. KAM AGI, 202-267-1872, E-MAIL: kagi@comdt.uscg.mil. The Coast Guard seeks additions to the existing Qualified Products List (QPL) for Solar Photovoltaic Arrays for 12-Volt DC Marine Aids to Navigation conforming to Civil Engineering specification no. 401B. Procedures for qualifying are detailed in specification 401B. Products on the QPL need not be requalified. Solar Photovoltaic Arrays charge lead-acid batteries during daylight hours; which, in turn, power light and sound signals on marine aids to navigation at night. Solar Photovoltaic Arrays are used on buoys and at lighthouses and are exposed to a harsh marine environment. Copies of the specification are available from the Specification Preparing Activity (SPA), Commandant (G-SEC-2A/6114), U.S. Coast Guard Headquarters, 2100 Second Street, S.W., Washington, D.C. 20593-0001 at telephone number 202-267-1872 or by telefax at 202-267-4788 or e-mail at: Kagi@comdt.uscg.mil. Manufacturers desiring qualification should advise the SPA in writing of their intent to qualify. Responsibility for testing is divided between the Government and manufacturer as detailed in specification 401B. Manufacturers with test samples submitted by 31 August 2002 will be qualified as a group. Successful manufacturers in this group may be placed on the QPL by 31 December 2002. Manufacturers not meeting the 31 August 2002 deadline will be placed on the QPL upon successful completion of the tests. However, the government furnished portion of testing, for manufacturers not meeting the 31 August 2002 deadline, will be performed on a Not-to-interfere basis, which may require indefinite delay. Consideration in all future contracts will be given only to those products accepted for inclusion on the QPL. Interested companies are encouraged to request copies of Specification no. 401B via e-mail to: Kagi@comdt.uscg.mil.. E-mail submission may include files in Microsoft Word format. Notices of intent to respond shall be in writing to: Commandant, U.S. Coast Guard Headquarters (G-SEC-2A/6114), 2100 Second Street S.W. Washington, D.C. 20593-0001. PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS NOTICE IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES TO IDENTIFY SOURCES AND OTHER MARKET INFORMATION. This notice does not constitute and Invitation For Bid or Request For Proposal and is not to be construed as an offer or a quote. Respondents deemed fully qualified will be considered in any resulting solicitation!!!!
