H -- QUALITY CONTROL AND DEVELOPMENTAL BALLISTIC TESTING SOL 9TSD131 POC Renea Morton, Contracting Officer, Phone (202) 435-6940, Fax (202) 435-7138, Email None WEB: Visit this URL for the latest information about this, http://www.eps.gov/cgi-bin/WebObjects/EPS?ACode=P&;ProjID=9TSD131&LocID =38. E-MAIL: Renea Morton, None. The U. S. Secret Service (USSS) intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with the University of Dayton Research Institute (UDRI) for quality control and developmental ballistic testing. In the process of analyzing ballistic test data, to determine armor performance and its suitability for application, it is necessary to compare data to an existing database of ballistic properties. Therefore, it is necessary to continue the ongoing relationship between the USSS and UDRI. It is anticipated that the USSS will order ballistic testing via purchase orders. Inasmuch as this is a sole-source synopsis for simplified acquisitions, there is no solicitation. Posted 06/23/99 (D-SN346375). (0174)
