The solicitation is for Material Processing Research and Development and will define the program requirements necessary to establish the relationship between basic mill processing, forming, joining, and heat treatment operations and the resultant microstructures in various aerospace structural and high temperature materials. Analytical models will be used in the design of deformation and solidification processes including but not limited to such unit processes such as precision forging, extrusion, casting, vapor deposition, and hot pressing. Emphasis will be given to establishing materials processing technology for metal matrix composites and high temperature materials. The contractor shall be responsible for operating, maintaining, calibrating, inventorying, modifying, and updating as necessary the equipment provided for this research. This program will be an on-site contract and follow-on to Contract F33615-96-C-5251. A single award is planned using a Cost Plus Fixed Fee Term Type Contract, with a 53 month period of performance including five months for reporting. Adequate Price Competition is anticipated.

The RFP is anticipated to be posted on or about 25 OCT 2000 to the Federal Business Opportunities (FedBizOpps) Homepage at http://eps.gov/.
