- Description
- This is a Sources Sought announcement, a market survey for written information only. This is not a solicitation announcement for proposals and no contract will be awarded from this announcement. No reimbursement will be made for any costs associated with providing information in response to this announcement or any follow-up information requests. The Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City (NSWC PC) is seeking information on remote control circuit breakers for the Landing Craft Air-Cushion (LCAC). The application is for use on U.S. Navy Hovercraft. This search is not restricted to current approaches or systems used in the maritime environment. It does include any technology, potentially suited for the above application used in diverse maritime as well as land environments. NSWC Panama City, is interested in materials, systems and technologies that can mitigate the physical and environmental effects that degrade remote control circuit breakers during LCAC operations. The desired system will be capable of having increased reliability over current systems to levels that will increase mean time between replacement, reduce maintenance evolutions, thereby, increasing combat readiness and reducing life cycle maintenance costs. The weight of the systems should be kept to a minimum. This announcement will serve as a first step for evaluating alternatives and supporting In-Service Engineering Agent (ISEA) research and development efforts planned for fiscal years 2006-2007. Systems could be acquired in the future for Test and Evaluation for future LCAC ISEA installation. Both off-the-shelf and developmental approaches will be considered. Responses to this announcement should include a technical description and detailed characteristics of the remote control circuit breaker for use on the Landing Craft Air-Cushion (LCAC. System descriptions should have enough information for the government to make informed decisions. Information submitted shall be marked with restrictive legends as deemed appropriate by the potential offeror. Data with restrictive markings will be handled in accordance with the restrictions thereto. Interested parties must provide paper submittals with copies on disks in MS Word or Adobe Acrobat format. The Government will evaluate the submittals for their potential to reduce the cost of LCAC ISEA efforts. Organizations that submit materials/designs, which are determined by the evaluation team as possessing significant potential for contributing to the solution of the LCAC Maintenance problem, may be provided an opportunity to demonstrate their system. Technical questions should be directed to Mr. Bill Buffkin at (850) 230-7109 (email william.buffkin@navy.mil). Mailing address for submissions is: Naval Surface Warfare Center - Panama City, Code R54, ATTN: William Buffkin, 110 Vernon Avenue, Panama City, FL 32407-7001 or email: william.buffkin@navy.mil. Responses to this sources sought should be sent to the address stated above not later than 31 March 2006.
