- Description
- Under this solicitation number, the Army Contracting Command (ACC) / Aviation Applied Technology Directorate (AATD) has awarded one firm-fixed-price contract for 6 material samples. AATD shall purchase representative samples of commercially available armor materials in current use by the United States Armed Services. The samples are desired to have a single-hit ballistic limit V50 velocity of 1950 feet per second (100m remaining velocity) against a 7.62 x 39mm Type PS Ball at the lowest possible areal density. It is anticipated that the lowest areal density will vary by material. The panels shall be constructed in multiple square geometries using optimized laminate material compositions. Each of the materials shall be fabricated in homogenous sample sets that optimize the areal density against the intended threat. It is anticipated that processing parameters shall vary with each type of material. In order to minimize variability, the processing conditions shall be kept constant regardless of panel geometry, per sample set, per material. No coverings or coatings are required to be applied to the panels, and the panels are to have finished/cut edges suitable to prevent delamination or other damage to the laminate quality. The panels shall be individually marked, denoting the material composition, panel size, and areal density. The provided samples shall have a square geometry for all panels with outer dimensions as identified below. The intent is to double the plane area of target size with each increasing target size (i.e., 64 in2, 128 in2, 256 in2, etc.). Some allowance for these exact dimensions may be allowed to permit a more optimized manufacturing process. The geometric tolerance for all panels shall be.125' from the specified dimensions. The 6 materials are as follows: Dyneema HB-50, Dyneema HB-80, Spectra Shield II SR-3130, Spectra Shield II SR-3137, Kevlar, and Tensylon. The following panel sizes apply: 6 each 8' x 8', 6 each 11.31' x 11.31', 6 each 16' x 16', 6 each 22.63' x 22.63', and 6 each 31' x 31'. Six panels shall be supplied per panel size in each of the 6 different material compositions shown above, for a total of 36 panels per material composition, 180 panels overall. Shipping charges are included in the contract. All samples shall be packaged to ensure safe delivery to destination point. Delivery of the material samples is expected to be 6 months After Receipt of Order. Delivery, Inspection, Acceptance, and F.O.B Point shall be at Destination. Destination is the Aviation Applied Technology Directorate, AATD Warehouse, Bldg 3519A, Mulberry Island Road, Attn: Ryan Harris, Fort Eustis, VA 23604-5577. The successful offeror shall submit their invoices through the Wide Area WorkFlow Web site http://wawf.eb.mil and is in good standing with the government according to the Excluded Parties List System https://www.epls.gov. The evaluation factors were (1) technically acceptable, (2) low price, and (3) delivery. Technical acceptance provides for adherence to the requirement as identified above.
