70 -- SOFTWARE PACKAGE SOL N66604-96-Q-E760 DUE 071096 POC Contact Jacqueline Feirouz, Contracting Officer at(401) 841- 2442 X294 FAX: (401) 841-4820 The Naval Undersea Warfare Center (NUWC) Division Newport, intends to award a sole source purchase order to SDRC Software Products of Littleham, MA for the procurement of the ''Ideas for Design and Engineering System (IDEAS) for Design'' software package consisting of 2 Core Master Modelers, 1 Surfacing Set, 1 Assembly Set and 2 Core Draftings. The items to be procured will be used to add additional software licenses to one of our laboratories and must meet the following minimum requirements: (1) The software must offer an integrated capability for performing mechancial design in two and three dimensions with preprocessing and postprocessing of finite element models to be used for structural analysis. (2) All software modules must provide direct access to a common database. It is unacceptable for a translator, such as IGES, to be required as an interface between modules. The database transfer between software modules should not be accomplished using a neutral file format. (3) The database must be fully compatible with Structural Dynamics Research Corporation's Systems and Model Plus Software Packages. (4) The program must be capable of generating files that are compatible with the ABAQUS, MSC NASTRAN, Dyna3D, and MARC finite element codes. It must also be capable to accept files generated by these codes as input to its postprocessing module. (5) The software must be fully compatible with the existing IDEAS software and model file database. Existing three dimensional solid models must be readable with no loss of data. (6) The software must be fully supported on the Hewlett Packard UNIX based workstations. (7) The package must incorporate an on-line finite element algortihm for the solution of linear static, linear dynamic, thermal stress, thermal conduction and potential flow problems. (8) The software must support IGES 3.0 and prior standards for the communication with other computer based design/analysis tools. (9) An interface must exist for generating toolpaths for numerical control machining from the three dimensional design database. (10) An interface must exist with NUWC's three dimensional stereolithography system. All responsible sources may submit a quotation no later than 10 July 1996. No formal solicitation will be issued.
