AI Contract Overview

NASA's Dryden Flight Research Center (DFRC) plans to issue a Request for Offer (RFO) to acquire pressure regulators for the feed system of the Propulsion Flight Test Fixture (PFTF), a system designed to test advanced air-breathing propulsion devices across sub-sonic to super-sonic speeds. The feed system will supply two propellants—gaseous oxygen (GOx) and methane (CH4)—which will be "blown down" from onboard tanks to the combustion chamber by opening valves and allowing tanks to evacuate to near ambient pressure. The contract will require offerors to provide feed systems for both propellants and propose a delivery schedule. This acquisition is set aside exclusively for small businesses, with the applicable NAICS code being 332912 and a size standard of 500 employees. Offerors must state their size status and all qualified responsible business sources may submit proposals. The procurement will follow FAR Part 12 procedures for commercial items and carries a DPAS rating of DO-C9. The anticipated release date of the RFO is on or about February 28, 2002, with proposals due by March 20, 2002. An ombudsman has been appointed to assist with the procurement process. The solicitation and related documents will be accessible online in Microsoft Office 97 format via NASA's Business Opportunities website, and offerors are responsible for downloading these materials and monitoring the site for any amendments. Prospective bidders are also required to notify the contracting office of their intent to submit offers.

Full Description

NASA DFRC plans to issue a Request for Offer (RFO) for pressure regulators for the feed system for NASA's Propulsion Flight Test Fixture (PFTF). The PFTF is designed to test advanced air-breathing propulsion devices at sub-sonic, trans-sonic and super-sonic speeds. The feed system for the PFTF will supply two propellants to the experiment, gaseous oxygen (GOx) and Methane (CH4). The two consumables will be "blown down" from tanks located in the PFTF to the experiment combustion chamber. The system will operate by opening the valves and the tanks will be evacuated until they reach near ambient pressures. Offerors will be expected to provide feed systems for each propellant. Offeror's will be required to propose a delivery schedule. The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. This procurement is a total small business set-aside. See Note 1. The NAICS Code and the small business size standard for this procurement are 332912 and 500 employees respectively. The offeror shall state in their offer their size status for this procurement. All qualified responsible business sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency. The DPAS rating for this procurement is DO-C9. The anticipated release date of the RFO is on or about February 28, 2002 with an anticipated due date for receipt of proposals to the RFO on or about March 20, 2002.
