- Description
- PMA213 is surveying the commercial vendor community for all interested parties, and is soliciting information and comments from industry for commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) Instrument Landing Systems (ILS) at select United States (US) Navy installations. Several US Navy installations have purchased ILS systems to service their respective airfields. The Navy has decided to create a program of record in an effort to provide select Navy and Marine Corps airfields with a single configuration system and required support. ILS GENERAL REQUIREMENTS The ILS shall comply with the unrestricted facility classification commissioning flight inspection tolerances for precision approaches as defined in the US Standard Flight Inspection Manual (NAVAIR 16-1-520). The ILS shall meet all requirements as defined in Industrial Claim Appeals Office Annex 10, Volume I, Section 3.1 for Category III ILS approaches. In its installed configuration, the ILS shall meet or exceed all operational requirements. ENVIRONMENTAL REQUIREMENTS The ILS shall meet the environmental requirements as specified in MIL-STD-810G. AMBIENT OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE Operating Temperature: -40⁰ F to +122⁰ F Non-Operating Temperature: -40⁰ F to +160⁰ F HUMIDITY Operating and Non-Operating Relative Humidity: 0 to 95% non-condensing ALTITUDE Operating and Non-Operating Altitude: -100 feet to 10,000 feet WINDS Wind Speed for Operating: 65 knots Wind Speed for Non-Operating: 100 knots ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE (EMI)/ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY (EMC) REQUIREMENTS The COTS ILS shall be designed to meet the EMI/EMC requirements as specified in MIL-STD-461F as described in Table V for Ground, Navy equipment to include CE102, CS101, CS103, CS104, CS105, CS114, CS115, CS116, RE102, RE103, RS101, RS103 and RS105. ILS ACHIEVED AVAILABILITY (Aa) Achieved availability is measured by the following equation: The ILS Aa shall be greater than or equal to 0.99. PERIODIC INSPECTION AND PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE Periodic inspection requirements and preventive maintenance inspections will be sufficient to ensure the system meets the achieved availability requirement. Time to complete all schedule maintenance tasks shall not exceed 1 hour per week. The contractor shall provide data to perform the Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) analysis and shall provide data for inclusion in generating Maintenance Index Pages (MIPs) and Maintenance Requirement Cards (MRCs). MEAN TIME BETWEEN FAILURES (MTBF) MTBF is used to measure the system reliability. It is calculated by dividing the total system operating time by the number of failures requiring corrective maintenance actions. The MTBF shall be sufficient to meet the achieved availability requirement. MEAN TIME TO REPAIR (MTTR) MTTR is calculated by measuring all potential maintenance actions from the time a failure is identified until the system is brought back to a full operational status. As an example, this would include the time to power down the system, troubleshooting time, removal and replacement of the failed item, system power-up and verification of system repair actions. The MTTR shall be sufficient to meet the achieved availability requirement. FAULT DETECTION The ILS shall have built-in-test capable of detecting greater than 90% of all detectable faults. FAULT ISOLATION The ILS built-in-test shall be capable of isolating detected faults to: 1 Line Replaceable Unit (LRU) ≥ 95% 2 LRUs ≥ 97% 3 LRUs ≥ 99% FALSE ALARM RATE A false alarm is an indication of a fault where no fault exists. The mean operating hours between false alarms for the ILS shall be greater 500 hours. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: The goal of this RFI is to explore the technical aspects of the components of this requirement. The Government is seeking industry input to assist in identifying features and solutions to meet the general requirements described above. Please note that the Government will NOT be responsible for any costs incurred by interested parties responding to this RFI. THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION ONLY. This RFI is issued solely for information and planning purposes and does not constitute a solicitation. In accordance with FAR 15.201(e), responses to this notice are not offers and cannot be accepted by the Government to form a binding contract. In response to this RFI, respondents shall submit written responses, not-to-exceed ten (10) pages in length via electronic mail. Product specification, sketches, or listings of authorized distributors are not to count as part of the page count. The contractor shall provide the average delivery lead time for the ILS, as well as information regarding commercial warranties included with the ILS, if applicable. The Government is interested in receiving vendors' commercial published price lists for items they believe meet the need in this RFI, as well as, identification of long lead item(s), sub-systems(s), or systems(s). The Government is in the process of assessing the specific installations and runways to be serviced by ILS. For that purpose, the Government is interested in any environmental or geographical restrictions that would prohibit installation of the proposed ILS at a particular site. Supplying price data does not imply a contractual obligation and must be provided as a separate document, marked as PRICE DATA, and sent only to the contracts points of contact identified below. The Government does not intend to award a contract on the basis of this request or to otherwise pay for the information solicited. While the Government intends to use this information for future acquisition planning purposes, it will not release any information about your approach that might in any way compromise your competitive posture or proprietary information. The Government will not use any information provided to level your approach relative to another competitor. All information received in response to this RFI that is marked PROPRIETARY will be handled accordingly. The Government will not be liable for or suffer any consequential damages for any proprietary information not properly identified. Proprietary information will be safeguarded in accordance with the applicable Government regulations. Responses to this RFI will not be returned. Respondents will not be notified of the result of the review. Failure to respond to this RFI does not preclude participation in any future associated Solicitation that may be issued. Information provided in no way binds the Government to solicit or award a contract. If a solicitation is released, it will be synopsized on the Federal Business Opportunities website: www.fbo.gov. It is the potential vendor's responsibility to monitor this site for the release of any follow-on information. HOW TO RESPOND: Please submit your response to this RFI (not to exceed 10 pages) via email no later than 4:00PM E.S.T Monday October 20th, 2014 to the following individuals: Ms. Danielle DiLorenzo at danielle.dilorenzo@navy.mil Ms. Christine Yezzo at christine.yezzo@navy.mil
