This RFI does not constitute a Request for Proposal and should not be construed as a commitment by the Government to award a contract as a result of this RFI. The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division Lakehurst is seeking the services of: Shock Testing for Instrumentation Survivability. Instrumentation survivability is a prerequisite for the Service Life Management Program (SLMP) Validation Testing. Instrumentation Survivability Testing is designed to ensure that the events encountered during the Validation Testing do not adversely affect the performance of data acquisition equipment. CONOPS Instrumentation Survivability: The instrumented Barrel (GFE) and Connector (GFE) shall be adapted and mounted to a shock table where it will be subjected to 40 drop-shock events: • Events 1-5 = 294G, 4.3ms • Events 6-39 = build up from 309G to 549G in 15G increments, 2 events per increment, between 2.8-4.3ms • Event 40 = 567G, 2.8ms Contractor performing the test shall be capable of producing the magnitude and duration of events listed above in conjunction with an appropriate shock table. The unit under test weighs approximately 450lbs and instrumented with 16 channels of data collection. 13 strain gauges and 3 accelerometers shall be monitored for signs of adverse reactions/degradation to the Instrumentation Survivability Testing. Contractor performing test shall be capable of adapting shock producing equipment to government furnish equipment (GFE) and aid in trouble shooting the interaction as needed. Test stand manufacturing to this degree is essential. The Contractor performing the test must have experience with Instrumentation and Data Acquisition, Survivability Testing, Dynamic Load Testing, and Shock Testing.
