- The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) intends to award a sole source contract under the authority of FAR Part 6.302-1 for Michigan Technological University to conduct an independent review of a FRA funded High Pressure Heat Exchanger (HiP-HEX) system. The combination of research staff expertise and unique research and development facilities enables Michigan Technological University to meet the needs of this project. The Advance Research Power Systems Research Center at Michigan Technological University has the capability to analyze internal combustion engines and fundamental combustion aspects including diesel sprays and combustion. The Internal Combustion Engine Research and Development facilities allows Michigan Technological University to directly support this requirement through the use of multiple test cell diesel engine testing for performance, fuel consumption, combustion characterization and emissions. The facility also has the capability of measuring fuel flow, air flow, torque, temperature and pressure; all of which are necessary for the independent review. There are no set-aside restrictions for this requirement. The intended procurement will be classified under North America Industry Classification System (NAICS) 541690. This Notice of Intent is not a request for competitive proposals and no solicitation document exists for this requirement. Parties interested in responding to this notice will need to submit technical data, including cost, sufficient to determine capability. All capability statements received by the closing date of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.
