- Description
- The U.S. Army Joint Munition & Lethality Lifecycle Management Command ??? Picatinny Center for Contracting and Commerce in support of the U.S. Army Research Development and Engineering Command has a requirement to purchase an EM61M or equivalent Time-Domain Electromagnetic Induction Metal Detection System. Interested sources will have an equal opportunity to submit a proposal in response to this combined synopsis/solicitation in accordance with FAR 12.6. The item is envisioned to be a commercial off-the shelf (COTS) item. Award will be based on lowest price technically acceptable response. This announcement constitutes the only solidification for this requirement. The following salient features are required: 1) Equipped with instantaneous Time-Domain Metal Detection mapping capabilities permitting the user to see, in real time, the GPS location of search path during operation over the search area and with superimposed color scale depiction of relative Time-Domain Response intensity such that as the operator maneuvers the detection system the Time-Domain Response map is compiled in real time on a color screen. 2) Real time display to provide automatic centering within screen of operator location within search area, including pan and zoom feature to allow zoom to full screen area of 5 to 500 square meters 3) Screen within screen function of the real time display indicating detection intensity of the Time-Domain Response in real time bar graph format. 4) Automatic recording of all collected Time-Domain Response intensity data in real time at minimum of 15 samples per second, stored in memory chip which can be easily removed 5) Unit completely self contained and does not require operator to carry any equipment, such as electronic components computers, batteries or other auxiliary devices 6) Unit capable of being pushed along the ground at walking speed and up to 16 kilometers per hour while collecting Time-Domain Response intensity data over a path width of 1 to 2 meters 7) subsurface detection performance of metallic objects equal to or exceeding the depth detection performance of the EM-61MKII. 8) dual coil system consisting of minimum of one transmitting coil of dimensions 1 meter X 0.5 meters and 2 receiving coils which accomplishes time domain Electromagnetic induction of subsurface metal and analysis of received Time-Domain Response. 9) Capable of download of magnetic stored Time-Domain Response intensity data over an area of up to 1Km X 1Km and download of this data after scanning to a laptop computer for generation of Time-Domain Response map using commercially available mapping software." 10) Real-Time DGPS with Decimeter Accuracy using no Base Station and subscription to satellite based differential correction providing a single solution for the entire globe. 11) System batteries housed at a position at the center of the bottom coil to provide enhanced system balance and weight distribution. 12) Primary magnetic field pulse repetition rate of minimum of 75 hertz. Delivery of 12 complete systems shall be delivered to building 3518, Picatinny Arsenal, NJ 07806 within 45 days or less from contract award. Technical evaluations will be conducted to determine as to whether the proposed product meets the specification listed above. FAR provision 52.232-33 Instruction to Offerors ???
