16 -- REQUEST FOR INDUSTRY COMMENT ON REPLACEMENT OF CONSTANT SPEED MOTOR AS PRIMARY ALTERNATING CURRENT POWER SOURCE FOR THE HU25 AIRCRAFT POC Point of Contact -- Contact HU25 Product Line Manager, LCDR Paul Hansen, 919-335-6597. Contracting Officer is L. J. Hudson, 919-335-6142 E-MAIL: USCG Aircraft Repair & Supply Center, Elizabeth City, NC, 62645087@eln.attmail.com. Replacement of hydraulically powered constant speed motor, P/N 722290, currently used to generate alternating current for HU-25 aircraft. The Coast Guard is seeking information from potential sources who can replace existing constant speed motor as the Alternating Current power generating source for its current fleet of 24 operational HU-25 aircraft. The A-C power generated by the aircraft is needed to power most of the navigation and sensor equipment which allow the aircraft to execute their tasking. The mission of the HU-25 is to respond to search and rescue cases, maritime pollution incidents and law enforcement activity. In an effort to reduce costs and eliminate a poor performing component, the new system must be able to generate 11kVA A-C power and have a documented MTBF of 2000 hours for applications on other aircraft with similar power requirements. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS. The purpose of this announcement is to determine if a suitable replacement for the existing system is available. Organizations having the required expertise and capabilities are invited to submit ?complete information discussing possible A-C power generating options. Firms are encouraged to comment on their experience with previous aircraft systems replacement of similar scope and complexity. Comments do not constitute a proposal; rather, will be considered as an open exchange of capabilities and ideas. The information contained therein shall pertain to this synopsis only. The Government does not intend to pay for the information received. Any interested organization must submit their data in writing within 30 days of this announcement to LCDR Hansen at the address given above. Respondents will not be notified of the results of the source data received, nor will a source list be provided. (AC0814026-04) (0226)
