- Description
- The U.S. Army Contracting Center (ACC-PICA-JA) on behalf of Benet Laboratories, Watervliet Arsenal, Watervliet, NY, is conducting a market survey to identify potential sources of Thermokinetic software for the analysis of thermal data. It is desired that the company also be able to provide thermal analysis testing data for input into the software as well as thermal analysis equipment. The capabilities described below are the requirements. The vendor shall provide: 1.Kinetic analysis software capable of model-free and model-based linear regression and multivariate non- linear regression analysis for calculating kinetic parameters, e.g. number of steps, contribution of each step to the total effect of the process, such as step enthalpy or mass loss, reaction type, activation energy and reaction order for each step, and pre-exponentials. This information can be used to solve problems or prediction or optimization. 2.The software must be able to import files from various thermal analysis tests such as, but not necessarily limited to, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). 3.Thermal analysis equipment and testing services capable of providing data for input into the analysis software to include, but not necessarily limited to: 3.1 Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) 3.2 Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) 3.3 Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA) 3.4 TGA- Mass Spectrometry (TG-MS) 3.5TGA-Infrared Spectroscopy (TG-FTIR) 3.6 Thermal Diffusivity and Thermal Conductivity 3.7 Dilatometry 3.8 Dielectric Analysis 3.9 Training on use of software and equipment This announcement constitutes an official Request for Information (RFI). Any information or brochures submitted will be used for planning purposes only and shall not be considered as a Request for Proposal or as an obligation on the part of the Government to purchase the mass loss measuring system. This request does not constitute a solicitation for proposals or the authority to enter into negotiations to award a contract (see FAR 15.201(e)). No funds have been authorized, appropriated, or received for this effort. Responses: Interested organizations should submit a company brochure or a tailored capability statement for these requirements that clearly details the ability to perform the aspects of the notice described above. All proprietary information should be marked as such. Responses will be reviewed by Benet Laboratories personnel only and will be held in a confidential manner. Submitted documentation will not be returned. Any and all information provided shall include system specifics including the following: a. Software capabilities b. Thermal Analysis testing capabilities c. Available equipment and capabilities of the thermal analysis equipment Submission Information: Responses to the RFI must be received no later than 3:00 PM EST on 3 June 2013 via email. Interested firms should provide their address, point-of-contact with telephone number and e-mail address. The Point of Contact for this action is Giuseppe Tropiano Jr., Contract Specialist, U.S. Army Contracting Command-Picatinny, ACC-NJ-ET. Benet Laboratories, Watervliet Arsenal; 1 Buffington Street Watervliet NY, 12189; email: Giuseppe.tropiano.civ@mail.mil NO TELEPHONE INQUIRIES WILL BE ACCEPTED.
