This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; a quote is being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. Solicitation N61339-99-Q-9355 is issued as a request for quote and incorporates the provisions and clauses in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 97-14. The solicitation shall be awarded on a sole source basis to Jason Associates Corporation, San Diego, CA. The SIC Code for this solicitation is 3699 with a size standard of 750 employees. The following items are required: CLIN 0001, Modification and Retrofit of Existing Portable Z-Drive Trainer (PZT) to Incorporate Full Follow Up (FFU) Tractor Control Steering System, 9 EA; CLIN 0002, PZT with FFU Tractor Control Steering System, 8 EA; CLIN 0003, Engineering Technical and Support Documentation, 1 LO, Not Separately Priced. The following Statement of Work applies: "PORTABLE Z-DRIVE TRAINING TRACTOR DRIVE CONTROLS INTEGRATION -- This statement of work addresses the requirements associated with the integration of a simulated Vickers Ulstein Tractor Drive Controls (VUTDC) into the commercial Portable Z-Drive Training (PZT) system. A one (1) day post-award program review shall be held at the Contractor's facility to review implementation of the simulated VUTDC. MODIFICATION AND RETROFIT UNITS (CLIN 0001): The Government shall return to the Contractor's specified facility nine (9) original commercial PZTs (one (1) no later than 10 days after contract award, remaining eight (8) no later than 30 days after contract award). The Contractor shall modify the nine (9) original PZT devices to include a simulated VUTDC. This modification and retrofit effort shall include the following tasks: (a) Modification of the current PZT configuration to include both a hardware and software interface to the VUTDC; (b) Development of a simulated VUTDC that includesall appropriate functions associated with the operation of the actual controls; and (c) Update the existing PZT Owners Manual to address operation and controls of the VUTDC and any associated maintenance requirements. The Contractor shall modify the current PZT hardware configuration as follows: (1) Ensure the power supply has the necessary power to drive both the PZT components and the simulated VUTDC components; (2) Ensure ability to perform standard commercial PZT operation and Tractor control operations (simultaneous operation of both functions is not required); and (3) Ensure configuration that enables the PZT to power the simulated VUTDC unit and provide communications between it and the PZT. The Contractor shall develop a portable VUTDC unit that simulates the functions of the actual tractor drive controls. This includes the development of the following components: (i) A Trainer Case (TC) similar in size, shape, color, and style to the PZT shall be used to house the simulated tractor drive controls; (ii) Two (2) Simulated Tractor Drive Controls (STDC) panels shall be integrated into the trainer case and each STDC panel shall look, feel, and function similar to the actual ship VUTDC panel and include the following components: Combi-lever (simulated), RPM Gage (simulated); Azimuth Indicator (simulated), and Appropriate switches and lights to permit correct operation of the control panel; (iii) A Control Module (CM) which shall handle the transfer of data between the simulated VUTDC and the PZT and also provide the interface to the controls, switches, and indicators; and (iv) A Power/Serial Cable (PSC) that shall provide the direct interface between the CM and the PZT processor. The Contractor shall modify the current PZT software configuration as follows: (A) Upgrade the PZT control pages to allow selection of the tractor drive control option; (B) Integrate a serial interface handler to transfer data between the PZT processor and the simulated VUTDC unit; and (C) Upgrade the PZT drive control software to allow VUTDC inputs to correctly affect ship-handling functions. The Contractor shall develop the CM firmware necessary to perform the following functions: (aa) Collect operator inputs from the simulated combi-levers and appropriate switches; (bb) Build data packets to transfer inputs to PZT processor; (cc) Receive data packets from PZT processor; and (dd) Drive RPM gages, azimuth indicators, and appropriate lamps. The Contractor shall use the same software language as in the original PZT for the PZT software modifications. The firmware in the CM shall use both C and assembly language. PRODUCTION UNITS (CLIN 0002): The Contractor shall perform the following production unit tasks: (a) Build eight (8) PZTs with simulated VUTDC; and (2) Verify that the eight (8) new PZTs with simulated VUTDC perform correctly. Each of the eight (8) new PZTs shall be built to include the changes as defined within this SOW under MODIFICATION AND RETROFIT UNITS above. DOCUMENTATION (CLIN 0003): The Contractor shall update the current PZT Owners Manual to reflect the changes associated with integration of the simulated VUTDC and a copy of the update documentation shall be included with the delivery of each trainer set." Delivery of all CLINs shall be made no later than 180 days after contract award to Supervisor, Primary Crew Assembly Facility (PAF), 400 Wells Street, Marinette, WI 54143; acceptance shall be made at destination upon delivery. Delivery shall be made FOB Destination. The following FAR/DFARS provisions and clauses apply to this acquisition: 52.212-1, 52.212-3, 52.212-4, 52.212-5, 252.2121-7001.
