- Past Performance Questionnaire Quote Instructions Statement of Work Request for Quote 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; quotes are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. The solicitation number is NTSB-Q-14-0038. This solicitation is issued as a Request for Quotes (RFQ). The solicitation documents and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 2005-75. This requirement is issued as a full and open competition. The associated NAICS code is 334519 Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing. Background The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is an independent Federal agency charged by Congress with investigating every civil aviation accident in the United States and significant accidents in the other modes of transportation - railroad, highway, marine, hazardous materials and pipeline, with the goal of issuing safety recommendations aimed at preventing future accidents. The Office of Research and Engineering supports accident investigations in all modes. An operator's perception of visual cues can play a major role in the circumstances of an accident. It is possible to study the focus of attention of an operator using an eye-tracking system. Such systems can be installed in simulators, vehicles or control rooms to understand the way visual cues are processed. For highway accidents, the NTSB maintains a sophisticated state-of-the-art real-time highway driving simulator manufactured by Mechanical Simulation Corporation. To investigate aviation accidents, the NTSB often makes use of pilot-in-the-loop simulator exercises at different sites. Including a portable eye-tracking system in the simulator exercises would increase the knowledge gained regarding an operator's awareness, focus, perception and response to visual cues. A portable system could also be installed in an exemplar vehicle to evaluate the focus of attention in a real-world situation. The Government intends to acquire these commercial items under FAR Parts 12 and 13. Description of Requirement Line Item Number 0001 - Eye-tracking System.
