- Description
- The Naval Surface Warfare Center - Panama City, 110 Vernon Avenue, Panama City, Florida intends to issue a sole source purchase order to Burnham Polymeric, Inc., 10036 Saratoga Road, South Glen Falls, NY 12803 for the procurement of 51.5 kilometers of upgraded 0.055" ruggedized Fiber Optic Marine Cable (FOMC) (five (5) 10.3 kilometer spools). Burnham Polymeric applies a special high strength coating to the bare optical fiber using their patented process. The government does not possess the data necessary to compete this process. Additionally, the government has spent many years attempting to find/establish a process that would yield a FOMC that would withstand the environmental stresses (marine biological attacks (by crustaceans) imparted in the intended application. Only Burnham Polymeric has been able to develop a process that produces a FOMC that meets all size, concentricity, and performance requirements (maximum attenuation per meter of the coated cable shall be 0.25dB per kilometer at the 1550 nm wavelength, 0.5 dB per kilometer at 1300 nm, and withstand 30 lb. working tensile load with no attenuation degradation), and withstands attack by crustaceans. Award will be based on the written quotation. These cables will be delivered to the Naval Support Activity - Panama City, Receiving Officer, Building 100, 101 Vernon Avenue, Panama City, FL 32407-7018. The anticipated award date will be on or about February 28, 2006. NAICS Code 335921 applies. SBA Size Standard is 1000 employees. FSC is 6015.
