- Description
- GRS_Deesign_Requirements RFI_GRS The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) – Armstrong Flight Research Center (AFRC) is interested in gathering information to identify vendors capable and willing to work closely with our team of engineers to obtain an audio recording system capable of capturing high resolution acoustic data from sonic booms or waveforms with characteristics similar to sonic boom except with significantly lower amplitudes. NASA – AFRC would like to either purchase or lease a commercial system or purchase the design and manufacture of specialized systems. Multiple units of this Ground Recording System (Referred to as GRS in the remainder of this document) will primarily be deployed outdoors and unattended at different test sites throughout the USA in support of NASA’s Low Boom Flight Demonstration (LBFD) Mission. There may be occasions where a unit or two may be deployed outside the USA. Deployment environments will range from hot and dry (e.g. the Mojave Desert in California) to hot and humid (e.g. southern Florida) to cold and dry or humid (e.g. the northern Midwest or Northeast). The GRS units will be set up and left in these environments for days or weeks at a time. Details of the concepts and requirements for the GRS units (GRS-Design-Requirements.pdf) are in direct support of two phases of the LBFD Mission that will depend on rapidly and efficiently acquiring ground signature data from supersonic overflight of existing supersonic military aircraft and the X-59 Quiet Supersonic Technology (QueSST) aircraft. NASA/AFRC is seeking capability statements from all interested parties, including Small, Small Disadvantaged (SDB), 8(a), Woman-owned (WOSB), Veteran Owned (VOSB), Service Disabled Veteran Owned (SD-VOSB), and Historically Underutilized Business Zone (HUBZone) businesses, for the purposes of determining the appropriate level of competition and/or small business subcontracting goals. The Government reserves the right to consider a Small, 8(a), Woman-owned (WOSB), Service Disabled Veteran (SD-VOSB), or HUBZone business set-aside based on responses hereto. Interested offerors/vendors having the required specialized capabilities to meet the above requirement should submit a capability statement indicating the ability to perform all aspects of the effort described herein. Responses must include the following: name and address of firm, size of business; average annual revenue for past 3 years and number of employees; ownership; whether they are large, or any category of small business*, number of years in business; affiliate information: parent company, joint venture partners, potential teaming partners, prime contractor (if potential sub) or subcontractors (if potential prime); list of customers covering the past five years (highlight relevant work performed, contract numbers, contract type, dollar value of each procurement; and point of contact - address and phone number). This requirement is considered to be a commercial or commercial-type product. A commercial item is defined in FAR 2.101. Include the NAICS Code of 334220. THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) ONLY to identify sources and equipment that can support NASA-AFRC AVTPE GRS for super-sonic boom research. The information provided in the RFI is subject to change and is not binding on the Government. NASA has not made a commitment to procure any of the items discussed, and release of this RFI should not be construed as such a commitment or as authorization to incur cost for which reimbursement would be required or sought. All submissions become Government property and will not be returned. Submission Instructions: Interested parties who consider themselves qualified are invited to submit a response to this Sources Sought Notice by 4:00 PM PT on 11/18/2019. All responses under this Sources Sought Notice must be emailed to Rosalia Toberman rosalia.toberman@nasa.gov. Please reference 80AFRC20SS002 in any response. Telephone inquiries will not be accepted or acknowledged, and no feedback or evaluations will be provided to companies regarding their submissions. This data will not be shared outside the Government. The Government may use this data to refine requirements and develop a request for a proposal. Data submitted as part of Industry response marked "Proprietary" will not be reviewed and should not be submitted. An Interested Parties List will be compiled and posted to allow potential offerors the opportunity to network. Companies that are interested in being included on the list should send the following information to Rosalia Toberman rosalia.toberman@nasa.gov: Company Name, Address, Contact Name, Phone and E-mail. If you have any questions concerning this opportunity, please contact: Rosalia Toberman rosalia.toberman@nasa.gov by 4:00 PM Central Time on 11/12/ 2019.
