- Description
- NASA/GRC has a requirement to conduct mixed phase and ice particle research in aspecialized icing wind tunnel facility.NASA/GRC intends to purchase the items from Cox and Company, New York, NY. A veryspecialized icing wind tunnel facility is required to conduct this mixed phase and iceparticle research. The facility must be capable of generating stable, temperaturecontrolled, calibrated icing conditions on demand and generate different types of iceparticles to evaluate the response of different shapes. This includes both spherical andirregular (rods and dendrite-like shapes), through a range of sizes. The icing windtunnel must allow unobstructed visual access to facilitate the use of NASA Glennhigh-speed close-up imaging systems. The facility must be located in the United Statesto minimize the travel associated with testing. There is no other facility availablewhich satisfies all of the above criteria.The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12.This procurement is being conducted under the Simplified Acquisition Procedures in FARPart 13. The sole source is under the authority of FAR reference 13.106-1(b)(1), only oneresponsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements.Organizations that believe they are capable of performing the described work may submittheir capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identifiedpoint of contact not later than 9/8/2008. Such capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determiningwhether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination bythe 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.An Ombudsman has been appointed.
