- Description
- Naval Air Warfare Command, Aircraft Division (NAWCAD) is seeking information on potential providers of the T-3000E Engine Trailer. The T-3000E Engine Trailer under the NSN of 1740-00-713-5908 has several part numbers that have been used to identify it, to include 107640, TUPEETUS6AE, and 2800-0000-00. It has also been identified by the MILT4727 standard which is now cancnelled. In addition to National Stock Number (NSN) of 1740-00-713-5908, the T-3000E has also been classified as NSN of 1740-00-770-9859, which was listed as a duplicate NSN for the same part and cancelled. This trailer was originally designed over 60 years ago, and has been modified resulting in various versions of the same part number and NSN. The T-3000E Engine Trailer is a twin rail trailer that through the use of standard adapters is able to transport major aircraft components such as prop-rotor, engine, mid-wing assembly, and others. Over time, for subsequent versions of the T-3000E Engine Trailer the axle width was widened to provide additional stability for the trailer; however, the only acceptable T-3000E trailer in this inquiry has an axle width of 58.5 inches maximum, which is the measurement from the original design of the T-3000E Engine Trailer. Only versions of this trailer with the 58.5 inch axle width are suitable for the intended use of this inquiry. NAWCAD is conducting market research to locate potential manufacturers of the T-3000E Trailers with the 58.5 inch axle width. If you are a manufacturer who has the ability to build T-3000E trailers to the axle width limitation, you are invited to identify yourself as qualified to manufacture the trailer. Although a detailed plan is not requested, please provide a short narrative as to how you would be able to supply the correct version of the T-3000E engine trailer. The Government would not supply a manufacturing drawing package. This is not a request for proposals. It is not an advertisement seeking firms who would like to develop a trailer, as the current T-3000E deployment Department of Defense-wide and existing technical manuals established for all branches of service requires use of the existing design. Not responding to this RFI would not affect your ability to participate in a future competitive procurement, however information received as a result of this RFI will help to shape the future acquisition strategy that could restrict participation in a potential award for approximately 50 each T-3000E Engine Trailers. This advertisement is not a promise that a future acquisition will occur. No promise of payment for information is made. Please send responses via email to Robert.battaglia@navy.mil
