- Description
- Solicitation number W31P4Q-07-Q-0029 issued on 19 July 2007 by US Army Aviation and Missile Command is being extended to 3:00 pm local standard time on 10 August 2007. The intent is still to issue a sole source contract for engineering services for the development of a composite case pressure relief system from Ensign-Bickford Aerospace and Defense. However, clarification of the requirement was requested. The synopis is being issued for the following: This contractor will develop a case venting de vice/pressure relief system for application to the Ground Based Interceptor (GBI) in its transportation configuration. The case venting system is required to meet the Fast Cookoff (FCO) Insensitive Munitions (IM) requirement. The Composite Pressure Relie f System (CCRS) shall be utilized on first and second stage rocket motors. The contractor shall perform the following activities supporting the development of a CCPRS design for the GBI: (1) Generate system model/block diagram including generate trade spa ce, technology evaluation, sense elements (thermal), arm/disarm function, relief system; (2) Evaluate and rank trade candidates with respect to requirements including performance, complexity, effect on system packaging, maturity, development risk, and cost ; (3) Downselect elements for demonstration; (4) Generate concepts from downselected elements including first order solid model; (5) Evaluate cutting performance against target materials including margin conditions, hydrocode analysis (if necessary), acces s effects on curvature, boundaries, discontinuities, and multiple materials, evaluate variability of penetration to ensure required no cut safety margins no impact to propellant; (6) Subscale investigation testing including characterizing thermal sense mat erials under simulated heating rates, penetration testing (standoff, curvature), mechanism and electronic feasibility testing (as identified); (7) Fabricate functional prototype for government functional subscale testing. The government will provide the c ontractor with composite coupons (flat or curved) and subscale composite case sections to support charge selection/sizing and standoff distance. Shipping costs for delivery shall be included in the quote as FOB destination for Redstone Arsenal, AL. In th e event all of the funding is not available for this effort now, a portion of this effort may be included as an option and awarded at a later date. All responsible sources may submit an offer, which shall be considered by the Agency, if received by 10 Aug ust 2007, 3:00 pm local time. Quotes may be submitted to: lisa.d.duncan@us.army.mil or via facsimile at 256-876-1631, marked to the attention of Lisa Duncan. Quotes/offers received after the specified due date and time will not be considered for award. Ple ase confirm receipt of any submitted quotations by following up with a phone call. For further information regarding this solicitation, contact Lisa Duncan 256-842-7408 NOTE: THIS NOTICE WAS NOT POSTED TO FEDBIZOPPS ON THE DATE INDICATED IN THE NOTICE ITSELF (02-AUG-2007); HOWEVER, IT DID APPEAR IN THE FEDBIZOPPS FTP FEED ON THIS DATE.
