- Description
- The U.S. Department of Commerce (USDOC), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and National Logistic Support Center, Kansas City, MO, intends to purchase 50 Power Block Assemblies from Electro-Miniatures Corp. The Power Block Assemblies are required by the National Weather Service for replenishment of the National Logistics Support Center warehouse stock. The Power Block is used in the NEXRAD Pedestal slip Ring Assembly and is available from only one known source; Electro Miniature Corp, who designs and manufactures the Slip Ring Assembly. It is one of the largest pieces of equipment associated with the NEXRAD Program. All spares for this system are required to be identical to the item which was provided with the original equipment. It is not possible to substitute for this item; any logistical spares must be form, fit, and function identical to the original equipment. Electro Miniature Corp, considers this item as proprietary and so is the only known source of supply. The original equipment was subjected to a stringent qualification test regime which included operational testing, and environmental qualification testing. Acceptance of any item other than the original equipment would require that testing be completely re-accomplished which would cost the government significant funding and time to accomplish resulting in fielded NEXRAD systems being unavailable during the period. For this reason, only the known Power Block Assemblies made by Electro Miniature Corp are deemed acceptable at this time. Required Components: 50 Power Block Assembly ASN: R400-2A1A2A1 NSN: 5977-01-380-4312 P/N: D2263-23 The NAICS Code is 335312. Size Standard 1,000 Employees.
