16 -- ON BOARD INERT GAS GENERATING SYSTEM (OBIGGS) SOL USZA95-98-R-0010 POC Richard Cooney (757) 878-5223 X251 E-MAIL: Contracting Officer, rcooney@tapo.eustis.army.mil. The Technology Applications Contracting Office proposes to acquire on an other than full and open competitive basis On Board Inert Gas Generating Systems (OBIGGS) for MH-60K and MH-47E Special Operations Aircraft fuel systems from Litton Life Support Systems. OBIGGS generates and introduces nitrogen enriched air into the fuel system ullage to maintain oxygen levels at or below nine-percent which decreases the probability of fires from ignition sources penetrating these fuel systems. A total of two systems will be acquired as a result of this contract action. These systems will be manufactured installed and subjected to testing in accordance with ADS-37A-PRF, MIL-STD-704C and MIL-STD-810E. Litton Life Support Systems shall use technologies previously developed and currently used on other military aircraft systems to produce the two systems required by this contract. Examples of Litton products currently being used on military aircraft include Litton OBIGGS p/n: 3261073, Litton Air Separation Module p/n:3261069, Litton OBIGGS p/n: 3261029 and Litton Oxygen Concentrating Systems (LITOCS) p/n: 3261132. Upon successful completion of testing, the Technology Applications Contracting Office anticipates award of a follow-on production contract for up to 50 additional systems plus logistics support. The systems to be acquired under this contract action will be delivered to the Government not more than 240 days after contract award. Based upon market research, the Government has concluded that only Litton Life Support Systems currently possess off-the-shelf products which can be adapted to this Special Operations Aircraft requirement All responsible sources may submit a proposal which shall be considered by the Technology Applications Contracting Office.
