NO FUNDS ARE AVAILABLE TO PAY FOR PREPARATION OF RESPONSES TO THIS ANNOUNCEMENT. ANY INFORMATION SUBMITTED BY RESPONDENTS TO THIS TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION IS STRICTLY VOLUNTARY. REQUIRED CAPABILITIES The Government requires HEGA Adsorbers build to standards as specified by the Institute of Environmental Science and Technology IEST-RP-CC008.2, dated 01 Feb 2011 and MIL-PRF-32016A (EA). Standard IEST-RP-CC008.2 covers the design and testing of modular gas-phase adsorber cells in single pass or recirculating air-cleaning systems where the need for high-efficiency removal of gaseous contaminants is a requirement. Specification MIL-PRF-32016A (EA) covers gas phase adsorber cells used to remove toxic chemical vapors exhausted laboratory air filtration systems. The intent of this Sources Sought is to assess the state-of-the art of the technology available in HEGA Adsorbers that could be applied to meet this requirement. The Government envisions a solution for HEGA Adsorber that meets the following operational and program requirements: • EST-RP-CC008.2, [High-efficiency Gas-phase Adsorber Cells], current version • MIL-PRF-32016A (EA), [Performance Specification Cell, Gas-phase, Adsorber], current version • MIL-DTL-32101A [Carbon, Activated, Impregnated, Copper-Silver-Zinc-Molybdenum- Triethylenediamine (ASZM-TEDA)], current version Qualification. All ASZM-TEA carbon adsorbent used in the production of these adsorbers must be tested by a certified Government lab to meet the requirements with MIL-CTL-32101A. Carbon acceptance test results shall be provided by the carbon manufacturer to the adsorber manufacturer and the Government. The HEGA Adsorber must be qualified and demonstrate compliance to the standards listed above. Proof of qualification should be addressed in the response. SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS Any resulting contract is anticipated to have no security classification levels. ELIGIBILITY The applicable NAICS code for this requirement is 333413, (Industrial and Commercial Fan and Blower and Air Purification Equipment Manufacturing) with a Small Business Size Standard of 500. The Product Service Code (PSC) is 4460 (Steam Plant and Drying equip. Nuclear Reactors (Air Purification)). SUBMISSION DETAILS Interested businesses should submit a brief capabilities statement package with test results (no more than ten 8.5 X 11 inch pages, font no smaller than 10 point) demonstrating ability to provide the products/systems listed in this Technical Description. Documentation should be in bullet format. No phone or email solicitations with regards to the status of the RFP will be accepted prior to its release. Your response to this Sources Sought, including any capabilities statement, shall be electronically submitted to the Contract Specialist, Charles Wilson, in either Microsoft Word or Portable Document Format (PDF), via email Charles.l.wilson88.civ@mail.mil no later than 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time Zone on 02 November 2018 and reference this synopsis number in subject line of e-mail and on all enclosed documents. Information and materials submitted in response to this request WILL NOT be returned. DO NOT SUBMIT CLASSIFIED MATERIAL. If your organization has the potential capacity to provide the required products/systems, please provide the following information: 1) Organization name, address, primary points of contact (POCs) and their email address, Web site address, telephone number, and Small Business classification; and 2) Tailored capability statements addressing the requirements of this notice. All data received in response to this Sources Sought that is marked or designated as corporate or proprietary will be fully protected from any release outside the Government.
