- Description
- The Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) is performing market research for a requirement to contract for the acquisition of a Bruel & Kjaer PULSE System. The PULSE System will allow the 711th Human Performance Wing, US Air Force School of Aerospace Medicine (711 HPW/USAFSAM) to achieve part of its mission by performing high-frequency sound and vibration measurements, infrasound measurements, impulse noise measurements, and general acoustical measurements. This is a Sources Sought (SS) / Request for Information (RFI).� This is not a pre-solicitation or solicitation or Request for Proposal (RFP) and is not to be construed as any commitment by the Government. This notice does not obligate the Government to award a contract and or pay for any bid and/or proposal preparation costs. The Government will not accept proposals at this time. This notice is not an offer by the Government to enter into a contract. Interested Small Business concerns must identify to the contracting officer their interest and capability to satisfy the Government's requirement by closing date listed. Responses will allow the Government to conduct an initial review of market capabilities in support of requirements identified in the specifications listed below. A) Item: Bruel & Kjaer PULSE System The Government is looking for sources that can supply an equivalent item that can meet the requirements for the above mentioned item by specifically meeting the following specifications. B) Specifications: - Must meet the specs for MIL-STD 1474E (using preferred 24 bit, 192kS/s or greater). - Must be able to measure > 160dBP. - Must be able to measure overall noise. - Must be able to break out frequency into octave band, fractional octave bands or narrow frequency components. - Should have LEMO connectors and be compatible with current software (preferred). C) Bruel & Kjaer PULSE System Specific features in-place at Wright-Patterson AFB: - 1/2 inch and 1/8 inch diameter microphones are needed to meet CATM impulse noise testing per federal regulations, AFI, as well as non-routine assessment requirements. - The system is designed to be used in conjunction with microphones that require 200V polarization voltage. - For field use requirements, the system has the characteristics to be used for random-incidence measurements at audio frequencies, where its frequency response is less dependent on angle of incidence. SUBMISSION DETAILS: All interested parties are encouraged to submit a response to this SS/RFI announcement. Responses should address the following questions: 1. Company name, cage code, address, point of contact, phone number, and email address. 2. Identification of whether the company is currently designated as a Small Business as defined in FAR Part 19.1 and the appropriate category (i.e. 8a, HubZone, etc.). 3. Company description of relevant capability and experience to provide the identified item. A brief history of the organization. 4. Company's potential teammates/subcontractors (if required to ensure success). 5. What, if any, risks or unknowns would hinder industries ability to meet the requirements? The Government encourages you to submit any additional comments or suggestions that you would like to share. Capability package responses and questions shall be sent electronically to the primary and/or alternate Points of Contact. Please be advised that all submissions become Government property and will not be returned.
