Description
THIS IS A SOURCES SOUGHT ANNOUNCEMENT, A MARKET SURVEY FOR WRITTEN INFORMATION ONLY. THIS IS NOT A SOLICITATION ANNOUNCEMENT FOR PROPOSALS AND NO CONTRACT WILL BE AWARDED FROM THIS ANNOUNCEMENT. NO REIMBURSEMENT WILL BE MADE FOR ANY COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH PROVIDING INFORMATION IN RESPONSE TO THIS ANNOUNCEMENT OR ANY FOLLOW-UP INFORMATION REQUESTS. NO TELEPHONE CALLS WILL BE ACCEPTED REQUESTING A BID PACKAGE OR SOLICITATION. THERE IS NO BID PACKAGE OR SOLICITATION. IN ORDER TO PROTECT THE PROCUREMENT INTEGRITY OF ANY FUTURE PROCUREMENT, IF ANY, THAT MAY ARISE FROM THIS ANNOUNCEMENT, INFORMATION REGARDING THE TECHNICAL POINT OF CONTACT WILL NOT BE GIVEN AND NO APPOINTMENTS FOR PRESENTATIONS WILL BE MADE. The Naval Facilities Engineering Service Center (NFESC) is seeking sources of technologies suitable for determining the parameters of "out of range" indigenous fuels of suspicious quality. It is envisioned that spectroscopic technologies and other field test methods can facilitate the rapid conduct of fuel quality determinations using handheld instrumentation other than that instrumentation used in standard ASTM test methods. The tests and instruments technology sought is not meant to replace ASTM tests but rather to determine on a "go or no go" basis the requirement for further ASTM fuel quality testing using mobile or stationary fuel laboratories. It is envisioned that several properties of diesel fuel (also kerosene's and gasoline's) including; Appearance, Color, Density, Distillation, Flash Point, Carbon Residue, Cloud point, Pour point, Copper Strip Corrosion, Cetane Index, Kinematic Viscosity, Water and Sediment, Particulate Matter, Accelerated Stability, and Total Sulfur may be assessed with these emerging technologies for "out of range" fuels to be used in Military vehicles. Although technology focus is primarily for Kerosene (JetA and JetA-1), reasonable methods to asess all Kerosene, and Diesel fuel quality are of interest. Of particular interest is the detection of the corrosion inhibitor, fuel-system icing inhibitor, and a static dissipator required by MIL-DTL-83133E for JETA-1/JP-8. All information shall be forwarded at no cost to the Government.Interested sources must submit their qualifications/capabilities in writing to NAVAL FACILITIES ENGINEERING COMMAND CONTRACTS OFFICE, CODE NF20 BLDG. 41, NAVFACENGCOMDET-NFI, 3502 GOODSPEED STREET, SUITE 2, PORT HUENEME, CA 93043-4306. Responses may also be sent by e-mail to scottjc@cbchue.navfac.navy.mil. Text sent by e-mail must be in Microsoft Word format. DEADLINE for receiving responses is February 16 2001. Responses received after the deadline or without the required information shall be considered unacceptable and will not be considered. Since this is a sources sought announcement, no evaluation letters will be issued to the participants.
