66 -- Install Potentiometers to Existing Solar Array Drives

The Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) plans to negotiate a contract exclusively with MOOG, Inc., Chatworth Operations, to upgrade and test space flight solar array drive assemblies (SADA). The work involves designing, integrating, and analyzing hardware necessary to install potentiometers onto existing single-axis solar array drive assemblies for functionality or acceptance testing. MOOG, Inc. was the original builder of this space flight hardware and possesses the qualified test equipment required to perform thorough testing of the units. This contract is being pursued on a basis other than full and open competition due to MOOG's unique capabilities and prior involvement. The solicitation, titled "66 -- Install Potentiometers to Existing Solar Array Drives" and identified by number N00173-07-R-JR01, was posted in late 2006 under NAICS code 334511.
