- Description
- Presolicitation Synopsis N00173-13-R-RH02 The Naval Research Laboratory (NRL), Navy Technology Center for Safety and Survivability (NTCSS) conducts basic and applied R&D programs for solution of current and future Navy problems in the fields of combustion, fire extinguishment, fire research, damage control and atmospheric hazards. Little Sand Island in Mobile, Alabama serves as the principal place of performance. The facility in Mobile is the ex-USS SHADWELL and is known as the Shipboard & Field Operations section. The shipboard facility investigates new fire protection systems, agents, equipment and techniques for fire safety on surface ships, submarines, aircraft and naval shore facilities. The ex-USS Shadwell is also involved in developing doctrine and tactics with final proof of concept being accomplished with Fleet personnel. NRL has a local staff which oversees operations, to include maintenance planning and research support. The ex-Shadwell is accessible only by the facility's five small boats (LCM-8, LCM-3, 20-35 ft commercial small boats). It has shore connections for electrical power and telephone. It receives fuel and water by barge. In addition to two emergency diesel generators, Shadwell operates a number of original and modified HVAC, compressed air, fuel distribution, and damage control systems. The fire research conducted aboard ex-USS Shadwell and on Little Sand Island requires engineering support to include hull mechanical & electrical (HM&E) system and small boat maintenance, precision machine work, and fabrication of engineering designs. The anticipated contract will develop conceptual designs, develop and execute facility modification plans, conduct periodic and corrective maintenance, and assist with real-scale test in support of the NTCSS research programs. The contractor will provide technical and logistics support, and ensure selected employees are certified to operate ex-USS SHADWELL hydraulic crane and forklift, in four areas: • DESIGN AND PROTOTYPE DEVICE SUPPORT • ENGINEERING/TECHNICIAN MANPOWER SUPPORT • SMALL BOAT MAINTENANCE • SHADWELL PLANNED AND CORRECTIVE MAINTENANCE It is anticipated that the first two areas will be tasked on an as-required basis, while the second two areas will comprise a continuous, ongoing task. Any resultant contract will likely be firm-fixed price. It is anticipated that this is a 100% small business set-aside. The NRL uses electronic commerce to issue requests for proposals (RFPs) and amendments to RFPs. Paper copies of the RFP will not be provided. The actual closing date for proposals will be stated in the solicitation when issued. All responsible sources may submit a proposal which shall be considered by the agency. Other business opportunities for NRL are available at our website http://heron.nrl.navy.mil/contracts/rfplist.htm. The government does not intend to use FAR Part 12, Acquisition of Commercial Items.
