- Description
- The Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division (NAWCWD), China Lake, CA, intends to procure on a full and open competitive basis the following items: Flash CT 3D Computer Tomography System. A Firm-Fixed Price contract is anticipated. This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart 12.6 as supplemented with additional information included in this notice and award shall be made in accordance with FAR Subpart 13.5 Simplified Acquisition. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation. A formal written solicitation request for quotation (RFQ) will not be issued. All responsible sources may submit a quotation, which shall be considered by the agency. Solicitation N68936-03-R-0014 will incorporate provisions and clauses that are in effect through the Federal Acquisition Circular 2001-09, DCN 20020730 and class deviation 2001-00002. Statement of Objective is to develop a 3D Computed Tomography (CT) System for large items using a high-energy radiation source (>2 MeV) utilizing existing technology for small items and low energy radiation source (<2 MeV) as a baseline. Large test items are defined as items larger than the Field of View (FOV) of the detector array and up to 16-inches in diameter. The development of this system shall include developing data acquisition, processing and visualization algorithms to generate 3D images from large items. This effort is divided into two phases: CLIN 0001 - Phase I: CT System shall convert raw image data to true 3D form with fan, parallel and cone beam reconstruction algorithms, and shall include: Test fixtures/manipulators capable of handling a variety of sizes of test articles: diameters 1 to 16 inches; lengths 1 to 50 inches; weights 1 to 1000 pounds. Digital Detectors: minimum 2000X3000 pixel array; pixel size 127 micron, minimum; must be able to resolve >/= 4 line pairs per mm; perform at high MeVs. Computer and software: software for imaging 8 x 16 inch test articles; reconstruction of pixels (multiprocessor); delivery of reconstructed image to viewer; reconstruction time <60 minutes; slice animation and interrogation coupled with advanced volume rendering to produce visual access to interior view of test asset; manipulation of image: 3D volumetric; flat (2D); X, Y, Z axis spatial view. System training and one year's software and hardware technical support to be included. CLIN 0002 - Phase II: CT System shall include all of the above and include the ability to image 16 X 60 inch test articles. CT imaging and quality shall be evaluated by comparing image of known defect standards obtained with conventional film radiographic techniques with the images obtained using the CT system. The system should be capable of detecting radial cracks as small as 0.003 inches, spherical diameters as small as 0.05 inches, and density differences of -10%. Scatter will need to be controlled such that bondline "kissing" effects can be detected. NOTE: CONTRACTOR CANNOT PROCEED TO PHASE II WITHOUT GOVERNMENT AUTHORIZATION. All requests must reference RFQ number N68936-03-R-0014.
