AI Contract Overview

The US Army Contracting Center-Warren plans to award a sole-source contract to Humanetics Innovative Solutions, Incorporated for one Hybrid III-50th Percentile Male Anthropomorphic Test Device (ATD), commonly known as a crash test dummy. This ATD is intended for use by the U.S. Army Tank-Automotive Research, Development and Engineering Center (TARDEC) within their Occupant Protection Systems Integration Laboratory (OPSIL). Along with the test device, the contractor will supply six 6-axis Femur Load Cells designed for the Hybrid III 50th Percentile ATD, all of which will be calibrated and certified for operation within OPSIL. The ATD must be assembled to function seamlessly with the Diversified Technology Services (DTS) SLICE data system currently employed by OPSIL. This procurement will be conducted under a sole-source justification pursuant to 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) and FAR Part 6.302-1, as Humanetics is identified as the only responsible source able to meet the government’s specific requirements. The government has issued a notice to allow other interested parties to express interest or submit proposals within a ten-day window from the announcement date, but the procurement is not a request for competitive bids. Responses must be submitted by June 17, 2011, and will be reviewed to determine whether competition is warranted; however, the final decision to proceed without competition rests solely with the government. The procurement is classified under NAICS code 339999 and is managed from the US Army Tank-automotive Command’s office at Detroit Arsenal, Michigan.
