- Description
- The Army Contracting Command -Aberdeen Proving Ground (ACC-APG) Contracting Center, Natick Contracting Division, Natick, MA, in support of the Joint Program Manager for Protection (JPM P) and the Decontamination Family of Systems (DFoS) Program, hereby issues a Draft Request for Proposal (RFP) in advance of the Pre-solicitation Conference for the Joint Sensitive Equipment Wipe (JSEW) scheduled to be held on 16 November 2011. This is a draft RFP made available for comment prior to the Pre-solicitation Conference. This is not a solicitation and no proposals are requested at this time. The intent of this acquisition effort is to rapidly field a JSEW that will provide immediate/operational decontamination capabilities for sensitive equipment, such as weapon system optics and electronic equipment, in hostile and non-hostile environments that have been exposed to chemical agents/contamination. The JSEW will decrease the level of gross chemical agent contamination, supporting thorough decontamination of sensitive equipment without adversely impacting the operational life or performance of the target assets. Flexibility to accelerate fielding of the JSEW by basing the design on the maturation of Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS)/Non-Developmental Item (NDI) products is central to the acquisition strategy. An iterative Government evaluation process, combined with vendor-conducted product modification, is intended to provide Government design control after Milestone (MS) B, and is key to ensuring integration of the JSEW into Decontamination Family of Systems (DFoS). The JSEW is considered to be a stand-alone capability. Proposed products will be compared against the following criteria: - Provides chemical efficacy test data (live agent or stimulant) for candidate against Nerve-G, Nerve-V and Blister-H. - Provides complete Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) and System Safety Assessment (SSA), which clearly identifies hazards (controllable and uncontrollable), active and inactive ingredients, product restrictions, and known safety hazards. - Provides an analysis that clearly defines technology's compatibility with sensitive equipment, as defined in the JSEW Performance Specifications. The draft RFP and associated attachments can be accessed from the solicitation link on this page or can be downloaded from the Natick Contracting Division website link below. This announcement is not a request for proposals and in no way commits the Government to award a contract. No solicitation exists at this time. The announcement number W911QY-12-R-0006 will be the controlling document and the Government is in no way liable to pay for or reimburse companies or entities that respond in any way to this Draft RFP. The Government has announced a pre-solicitation conference for interested parties on 16 November 2011. Questions received at least three (3) business days prior to the pre-solicitation conference will be addressed during the conference. The full announcement for the pre-proposal conference and registration information is available on the Federal Business Opportunities website at https://www.fbo.gov under announcement number W911QY-12-R-0006. Questions regarding this Draft RFP will only be accepted in writing via e-mail to jean.greenwood@us.army.mil with a courtesy to peter.wallace@us.army.mil.
