- Description
- NASA/MSFC plans to issue a Request for Quote (RFQ) for a task to collect the body of knowledge of previous and planned assembly-level and subscale lead-free solder test programs. The study shall include a review and summary of test data for predominate alloy groups that are likely candidates (deemed reliable for space use) for replacement of tin-lead solders [i.e., alloys in Joint Group for Pollution Prevention (JG-PP) Lead-Free Test Program]. The contractor shall have the technical capability and be responsible for research of existing technical data from Government, industry, and academia. Data review should be limited to the data set for lead-free alloys that are potential candidates for aerospace use. The output of this study will be a collection of the lead-free solder body of knowledge and a summary of data pertinent to aerospace which shall be included in the final report. The report shall also include in summary form relevant previous test results, current test programs, industry trends, and regulatory trends. It shall also include risk mitigation strategies for potential problems from the unintentional introduction of pure tin into avionics systems and the possible introduction of lead free alloys on part leads and in solder joints of supposedly tin-lead systems for NASA programs/projects. Lead-free experts within NASA, the government, and industry shall be identified in the report. Additionally, the description and scope of all significant test programs currently in the planning stages (i.e, TWI Project 7360, IPC Lead-Free Project) shall be included. This procurement is being conducted under Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP). The Government does not intend to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. See note 26. This procurement is a total small business set-aside. See Note 1. The NAICS Code and Size Standard are 541710 and 500 Employees, respectively.
