- Description
- THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) ONLY. THERE IS NO SOLICITATION PACKAGE AVAILABLE. The Naval Air Warfare Center, Aircraft Division (NAWCAD) Lakehurst, NJ seeks to identify potential sources for a portable, microprocessor-based Eddy Current Testing (ET) System. The ET System is used to locate surface or near-surface flaws in electrically conductive materials, measure coating thicknesses and conductivity. The ET System will be used onboard ships (above and below flight deck) as at shored based sites replacing the current unit (NORTEC 2000D+, P/N 9744836). The objective is to procure a modified COTS system that replaces the current eddy current units capable of operation within military shore-based and shipboard environments. The system will employ state of the art technology. All materials and components utilized shall be commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) or non-developmental items. The ET System shall include, but not be limited to the following constraints: The ability to inspect for surface or near-surface flaws in electrically conductive materials, measuring coating thicknesses and conductivity. Display data in Impedance plane, Sweep, and Dynamic Bolt Hole Scanner Display modes. Provide probes configured for conductivity measurement (with standards), surface testing and bolt hole testing. Provide a non-indexing rotating probe scanner with variable rotating speeds from 600 to 3000 Revolution Per Minute (RPM). Frequency range: 60 Hz to 6 MHz (minimum range) Gain: at least 90 dB of amplification range for both the vertical (y) and horizontal (x) axis. Battery-operated with external charging capability. Minimum operating time of 6 hours per charge. Logistics: •a. System operation/maintenance is not to require any special tools •b. Full Logistics Support Package to include but not limited to: • i. Technical Manual • ii. Logistics Management Information • iii. Provisioning Technical Documentation • iv. Calibration Documentation Interested companies are requested to provide information on products/services similar in scope and effort. Respondents to this RFI may provide catalogs, drawings/illustrations, technical manuals, training descriptions/materials, warranty information, testing documentation, brochures and/or any other documentation that describes their capability to design, develop, manufacture and support an effort of the type described herein. In addition, it is requested that respondents identify government and/or commercial customers to whom same or similar equipment has been delivered. Provide customer points of contact, including a telephone number, e-mail address/web site, quantities sold along with dates sold, and a description of the unit(s). It is requested that information be submitted NO LATER THAN 02 October 2017 to Ms. Lisa Bethea, Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division, Code 25212 B562-3, Route 547, Joint Base MDL, NJ 08733-5000. Ms. Bethea may be reached by electronic mail at: lisa.bethea@navy.mil or to Mr. Alan McCarty, by electronic mail at: alan.mccarty@navy.mil, reference N68335-17-R-0430 in correspondence. This RFI is issued for the purpose of determining market interest, feasibility, and capability of sources and does not constitute a request for proposal. This announcement is not a formal solicitation and is not a request for proposal. No contract will be awarded from this announcement. Information herein is based on the best information available at the time of publication, is subject to revision, and is not binding upon the government. No reimbursement will be made of any costs to provide information in response to this announcement or any follow-up information requests.
