AI Contract Overview

The Naval Air Systems Command at Patuxent River, MD plans to initiate a full and open competition to develop, manufacture, integrate, test, deliver, and support an upgraded CH-46E Torque Signal Conditioning and Indicator System (TSCIS). This new system will combine the existing signal conditioners and torquemeter indicators into a single integrated indicator that matches the form and function of the current torquemeter indicator without requiring additional support equipment. Key performance goals include compatibility with existing H-46E equipment, maintaining or improving accuracy relative to the current Aircraft Integrated Maintenance System, ensuring torque signal validity, and minimizing operational and maintenance impacts. The system will be installed at current pilot and co-pilot console locations, supporting efficient integration. The procurement anticipates ordering approximately 344 indicators over a three-year span, covering 154 aircraft, spares, laboratory support units, and test equipment. The contract will be structured as a firm-fixed-price agreement with a base year and two option years. Important milestones include a Preliminary Design Review within four months of contract award, a Critical Design Review within seven months, and installation beginning in October 2009. The solicitation is expected to be released around April 8, 2008, and proposals are not being accepted until the official Request for Proposal is issued. Questions are directed to the designated contract specialist, Ms. Julie Paul, at the Naval Air Systems Command.

Full Description

The Naval Air Systems Command, Patuxent River, MD intends to conduct a full and open competition to develop, manufacture, integrate, and test, deliver, and support a CH-46E Torque Signal Conditioning and Indicator System (TSCIS). Proposals are not requested at this time and will not be accepted until after a solicitation is released. There is no solicitation available at this time but anticipate release of a Request for Proposal (RFP) on or around the 8 April 2008. The TSCIS provides engine performance information to the pilot and co-pilot. The new TSCIS shall incorporate the functionality of the signal conditioners and torquemeter indicators into one indicator that resembles the existing torquemeter indicator. No new support equipment shall be required. The Functional Requirements Document for the H-46 TSCIS will be used for technical and environment requirements for this procurement. The key performance parameters are: (1) the new TSCIS will be compatible and integrated with existing H-46E equipment; (2) meet or exceed accuracy of the H-46E Aircraft integrated Maintenance System (AIMS); (3) meet fit and functionality of existing torquemeter indicator; (4) provide torque signal validity; (5) require no peculiar support equipment; (6) have minimal operational and maintenance impact; and (7) combine the functionality of the current H-46E signal conditioner and torquemeter indicator into one indicator that utilizes existing location on both the pilot and co-pilot consoles. The CH-46E program is looking to expedite the fielding of this new TSCIS. The Preliminary Design Review (PDR) will be conducted within 4 months after contract award and the Critical Design Review (CDR) will be conducted within 7 months after contract award. Installation on the CH-46E aircraft must begin in October 2009. The estimated quantity for this procurement is 340 Indicators for 154 aircraft plus spares, two (2) Indicators to support the H-46E System Integration Laboratory, and two (2) Indicators with associated drawings and cables for EMI testing for a total of 344. The Torque Indicators will be procured over a three year period. The contract will be firm-fixed price with a base year and two (2) option years. All questions regarding this procurement shall be directed to the following: Ms. Julie Paul, AIR Code 2.4.2.3.1, Bldg #2272, Suite #353, 47123 Buse Road, Unit IPT, Patuxent River, MD 20670-1547, Email Address: contact@example.gov, Telephone number +1 (555) 000-0000; FAX Number +1 (555) 000-0000.
