- Description
- NASA/MSFC has a requirement for ultrasonic phased array components including wedges, transducers, cables and encoders. NASA/MSFC intends to purchase the items from Olympus NDT, Inc. on a sole source basis. The encoder takes signals from an existing Tomoview FOCUS Phased Array System, manufactured by Olympus. The Olympus transducers are matched to the FOCUS system and therefore must be compatible. Market research has found that other manufacturer?s transducers present an impedance match problem and reduction in efficiency. The wedges and hypertronix cables are matched to the transducer width and coupling specifications. These must be compatible. Drawings and specifications to the Linear Array Transducer, the FSW Custom Wedge, and the Mini Encoder are proprietary to Olympus. See attached specifications of items needed. The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to Judith R. Drabkin at Judith.R.Drabkin@nasa.gov. no later than 4:30 p.m. CST local time on July 03, 2006. Capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. All responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency. An Ombudsman has been appointed.
