The Virginia Army National Guard (VaARNG) is seeking to replace an existing shelving system with a more efficient and time saving automated Vertical Lift Module (VLM) at a logistics warehouse in Richmond, VA. Delivery is required to be FOB Destination. A Vertical Lift Module is an automated storage solution that resembles a giant customized vending machine for parts, and inventory. Similar to the Vertical Carousel (but more sophisticated), a Lift takes storage and literally stands it on its head, "going vertical," saving otherwise wasted floor- and air-space. The contractor shall provide all parts, machinery, equipment and personnel necessary to deliver, install, set-up/make operational and maintain a VLM (inclusive of software). The system shall meet the below minimum specifications: Requirements: • One set that contains two columns of enclosed shelving with an extraction shelf that moves up and down an open shaft between the columns. Once selected by the extractor shelf, the retrieved part is delivered to the system operator positioned at an ergonomically designed access window. • Adjustable module heights up to 12" STANDARD and adjustable shelf heights • Space Maximizer to automatically store the shelf in the least amount of space with associated Space Maximizer/Optimizer Software (not intended to be brand specific) • Height sensors to automatically measure height of parts to verify proper fit • Security door with lock to limit access to authorized personnel • Ability to eliminate imbalance problems regardless of where the weight load is positioned to prevent the shelving unit from flipping over or tipping from side to side • The shelving system must be able to be bolted to the floor to prevent the unit from tipping over when retrieving the item from the unit • • Designed with a self-diagnostic system • • Tool drawer inserts • Extractor to retrieve product • Roller chains with a high rate of efficiency OR MANUFACTURER'S STANDARD • Operational and maintenance training to no less than 8 VaARNG personnel after installation is complete • Minimum two year/24 month warranty on parts and labor Technical Specifications: • Height: from 16' to no more than 17' tall WIDTH - NOT TO EXCEED 45' • Shelf Sizes: REMOVED • Module Payload: REMOVED • Shelf Payload: REMOVED • Power: 220 VAC, 1 phase, 20 amps, up to 460VAC, 3 phase, 30 amps depending upon requirements • Vertical travel speed: from 65' to 150' per minute At present, various items are stored in the existing static shelving. Stock of all sizes from small generators to computer monitors. The individual bin sizes should be variable or modifiable to allow storage of different items as stock requirements change. Option line items are included for maintenance to provide funding in later years for continued equipment maintenance as well as software maintenance. In accordance with clause 252.204-7011 Alternative Line Item Structure, contractors are encouraged to provide line item pricing that is economically and administratively advantageous to the Government and the Contractor. Specifications are based on a Kardex Remstar Shuttle XP however it is not the government's intent to limit competition. Any reference to a brand specific specification such as Kardex is not intentional. Any manufacturer's product that fulfills the above described requirement will be considered. In addition to price and product specifications, the following is to be provided with the quote: a. Company Name and Address b. Point of contact (POC) name, phone number and email address c. CAGE Code d. DUNS Number e. Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) f. Delivery Date g. Discount Terms h.
