- Description
- The Aviation Development Directorate-Aviation Applied Technology Directorate (ADD-AATD) Contracting Division, U.S. Army Contracting Command, intends to award a firm-fixed-price contract. The solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 2005-89. The solicitation number is W911W6-16-T-0013 and is issued as a request for quotes. The proposed contract action, a commercial item purchase in accordance with FAR Part 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures, is for procurement of a simulated computer numerical controlled (CNC) machining analysis that will predict distortion for an aluminum test coupon representative of an Army rotary wing airframe. The test coupon for simulating machining is to be an aluminum material, includes thin web sections, and has dimensions approximately.7 m x.2 m x.06 m. The test coupon will be provided by the Government. The machining process will predict distortion and residual stress and will be used to optimize machining instructions, including the toolpath CNC g-code, for a high-quality part. The work will include the following: (1) The contractor will use a machining simulation with analysis of machine induced residual stress to accurately predict final part distortion from a current standard practice Computer Numerical Controlled (CNC) machining process. As a result, a report will be required documenting simulation procedure and drawings of predicted distortion of the machined test coupon and will be delivered. (2) The contractor will use machining simulation to optimize machining instructions to achieve a least distorted coupon. As a result, a report documenting the optimization procedure, drawings of predicted distortion of machined test coupon, and the optimized machining process instructions including CNC code will be required. In addition, the contractor's analysis must meet the following: (1) Analysis process should already be developed and proven capable of high-fidelity prediction with blind experimental comparison; (2) Analysis should be capable of accurately predicting effects of machining options including feed, speed, cutting tools, and toolpath (zig, zig-zag, curvilinear), strategies for part rotation, tool bit helix angle, and material removal sequence; (3) Analysis should be capable of virtually exploring machining parameters and identification of key controlling factors; (4) Analysis should use physics-based relationships; and (5) Analysis should include details to the cutting tool level. Offerors shall include in their quote a work approach, cost breakdown, delivery schedule, and qualifications of performing personnel. Shipping charges and warranty terms shall be included in the quote. Delivery, Inspection, Acceptance and F.O.B. Point will be at Destination, Fort Eustis, Virginia 23604. Delivery shall be not later than one month after receipt of order. The provision at FAR 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors--Commercial Items, applies to this acquisition without addenda. Offerors shall include a completed copy of the provision at FAR 52.212-3, Offerors Representations and Certifications--Commercial Items Alternate I, with their offer.
