- Description
- This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart 12.6 as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This Request for Quote (RFQ) announcement constitutes the solicitation. The NAICS code is 334412 and the size standard for this requirement is 500 employees. The RFQ reference number is H94003-11-T-1118. Quotes shall be valid for a minimum of 60 days. Quotes are due to the DMEA contracting office by 3:00pm (PST) on September 6, 2011 and will be electronically sent by email to Ed Kurjanowicz at edward.kurjanowicz@dmea.osd.mil. The requirement is for production of three different versions of assembled printed circuit boards (PCBs), hereafter referred to as printed circuit assemblies (PCAs). USB-Omnetics 3-pin male cable assemblies (cables) are also required. The purpose of this Quote is to acquire manufacturing services for the fabrication of 165 PCAs and 105 cables. Within 10 days after contract award, the government will provide as Government Furnished Property (GFP)/Government Furnished Equipment (GFE) to the contractor, the Gerber files and any additional data necessary for the contractor to complete the PCB fabrication. The government will also provide one (1) part type, to be used in the assembly of the CS9a PCA. The contractor shall conduct technical interchange meetings (TIMs) as necessary in the performance of this fabrication task. The technical interchange meeting with the contractor shall be scheduled when there is need for technical interchange between the government and the contractor. The content of the meeting can include the discussion of any information that will impact task related activities. The contractor shall deliver to the government all residual panels and parts purchased for this project not consumed by the delivered assemblies. Residual PCBs shall remain in panels. For initial prototypes, the contractor shall fabricate and assemble five (5) each prototypes of the 5S5b PCA, five (5) each of the CS9a PCA, five (5) each of the T&I Switch PCA, and five (5) each of the USB-Omnetics cable assembly. These prototypes shall be provided to the government for inspection and acceptance. Government acceptance will be based upon a comparison of assembly drawings with the prototype product, including an examination of the electrical properties. For example, acceptance will be based upon dimensions, tolerances, material selection, parts selection, open/shorts inspection, and all other parameters that are part of the drawing package. Government acceptance or rejection of the prototypes will be in the form of an electronic email letter from the Government Project Engineer (PM). If the parts are rejected, the Government will provide a detailed explanation. Government acceptance or rejection will be within four (4) weeks of receipt of the contractor delivered prototypes. Contractor shall resubmit corrected prototypes within three (3) weeks of rejection of prototypes. Upon acceptance of prototypes by the government, the remaining production quantities of 50 each of the PCA product type and 100 each of the cables shall be manufactured. The contractor shall procure sufficient components and materials to fabricate a minimum of 55 each of the PCA type 5S5b, 55 each of the PCA type CS9a, 55 each of PCA type T&I Switch Board, and 105 each of the USB-Omnetics Cable Assemblies. For the CS9a PCA, the government will provide as GFE, 55 each of the parts designated as 'S3' to be used in the assembly of PCA CS9a. The contractor shall identify a source of supply and purchase all other parts required for the build of the prototype and production assemblies, as well as sufficient parts to cover scrap, waste, or spoilage during assembly. The contractor shall not make any parts substitution or changes to the PCB layouts without government review and approval. The contactor shall inform the government of problems associated with the drawing package or availability of parts. The contractor shall fabricate and assemble 55 each of the 5S5b PCB, 55 each of the CS9a PCB, and 55 each of the T&I Switch PCB. Initial prototypes shall be a part of these quantities. The contractor shall visually inspect the 165 fabricated PCBs for quality control and ensure that the 165 fabricated PCBs to be delivered are free from any visual defects. The contractor shall perform opens and shorts testing on the fabricated PCBs. The contractor shall ensure that the 165 fabricated PCBs to be delivered are free from any opens and shorts. After prototype acceptance by the government, the contractor shall fabricate and assemble 50 each production units of the 5S5b PCA, shall fabricate and assemble 50 each production units of the CS9a PCA, and shall fabricate and assemble 50 each production units of the T&I Switch PCA. The pick and place files for each PCA shall be updated as necessary. The contractor shall fabricate and assemble 100 each of the USB-Omnetics cable assembly. The contractor shall perform quality control on the cables including inspection for opens, shorts, and manufacturing defects. After prototype acceptance, the contractor shall deliver the 150 assembled PCAs, the residual PCBs in panel form, the updated pick and place file, and the 100 USB-Omnetics Cable Assemblies to the DMEA Project Engineer. The 150 assembled PCAs, the residual PCBs in panel form, the 100 USB-Omnetics Cable Assemblies, and the updated pick and place files shall be delivered no later than 13 weeks after the date of contract award; incremental deliveries during the 13 weeks will be accepted by the government. Any updates to any Gerber Files, BOM, and Assembly Drawings shall also be delivered, not later than 13 weeks after the date of contract award. If prototypes are not accepted by the Government, minimal schedule slippage is acceptable to the Government, consistent only with the time required to correct any PCAs or cables discrepancies. The contractor shall submit documentation of successful visual inspections and open & shorts testing of all delivered PCAs and cables. The government will inspect and test the 150 PCAs and the 100 cables and the duration of the government inspection and testing will be no more than six (6) weeks after receipt of the PCAs and cables. After completion of the inspection and testing, the government will provide a list of any manufacturing discrepancies and deliver the PCAs or cables to the contractor. After receipt of the PCAs and cables, the contractor shall correct the manufacturing discrepancies and deliver the PCAs or cables to the government within four (4) weeks for inspection, test or final acceptance. In the Quote, the Offerors will include a description of their technical approach and methodology to meet the requirements of the Statement of Work (SOW.) The Offerors' approach shall include but is not limited to how the panel of boards will be populated and disconnected as separate, assembled PCBs. The description for the panelized PCB assembly shall include a methodology and reflow temperature profiles to assure proper solder reflow, electrical reliability, and mechanical reliability between all components on a given board (both SnPb and SAC-305/Pb-free components) and the PCB itself. Offerors will indicate any aspects of the technical approach that will be subcontracted. Offerors will list all personnel working on this task under the contractor and sub-contractor if applicable. The Offerors' employees working on this task must be ITAR compliant. The Offerors technical approach, capability, schedule, and past performance will first be evaluated for acceptability on a pass or fail basis. Quotes passing all factors will then proceed to a best value source selection process where technical approach, capability, and past performance are significantly more important than price when being evaluated. Detailed quote submissions and requirements can be found in the RFQ, statement of work (SOW), appendices and attachments. To request email copies, please contact DMEA contracting office point of contact (POC) Ed Kurjanowicz (916-231-1527) by email at edward.kurjanowicz@dmea.osd.mil.
