- Description
- Original J&A Approval is being requested for a Firm-Fixed Price contract to Applanix, LLC for an Inertial Motion Unit type 17 for the Survey section of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Philadelphia District. The value of the requirement is $15,500.00. The funding has been committed under PR&C No. W25PHS40319208. less than br greater than less than br greater than The Applanix Inertial Motion Unit (IMU) type 17 is a component of Positioning and Orientation Systems aboard district vessels. These systems measure the position, heading, heave, pitch, and roll of the hydrographic survey vessel by combining Global Positioning System (GPS) data with motion data. The IMU measures the motion of the vessel while underway and is mounted below decks near the center of mass of the vessel. In this environment, the IMU has a variable life expectancy due to moisture, fluctuations in electrical current and excessive forces of impact. Due to a recent failure of an IMU, it was replaced with a backup unit which is 8 years old, well beyond its design life. This IMU is an essential part of the survey system, and any down time due to another failure will have an adverse effect on our district's mission of providing timely bathymetric information to the port community. It is our intent to put this IMU to use immediately upon receipt and to retain the older unit as a backup.
