AI Contract Overview

The Department of Commerce National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration intends to award a sole source, firm-fixed-price purchase order to Lithiumstart, Inc. for forty marine lithium-ion rechargeable batteries, part number BATA-3-40-PN8-15H. These batteries are critical components for the National Data Buoy Center's Self-Contained Ocean Observing Payload technology refresh systems, which are designed for coastal monitoring stations. The procurement is justified as a sole source because Lithiumstart developed the original design through a previous competitive process and conducted extensive safety, destructive, and environmental testing, including the addition of heaters for high-latitude operations and corrosion-resistant coatings. The batteries must meet strict technical specifications, including a weight under 25 pounds, a watertight enclosure, and compliance with MIL-STD and UN transportation requirements. They must also feature Smart Module Technology for wireless health reporting and a life expectancy of at least 300 charge and discharge cycles.

This is a notice of the Government's intent to award one (1) purchase order with firm-fixed prices to Lithiumstart, Inc. 865 Hinckley Rd. Burlingame, CA 94010 on a sole source basis for the purchase of forty (40) marine lithium-ion rechargeable batteries for the National Data Buoy Center (NDBC) Technology Refresh Systems to be built and deployed in 2018. Marine Lithium-ion Rechargeable Battery, PN: BATA-3-40-PN8-15H, Qty 40. Marine Lithium-ion Rechargeable Batteries are commercial items in accordance with FAR 2.101 and are used by the NDBC in the new Self-Contained Ocean Observing Payload (SCOOP) data acquisition system. The SCOOP system is a technology refresh for the NDBC's current coastal monitoring stations. The NDBC contracted out this design effort under procurement NWWG9502-14-00518 which in open competition was won by Lithiumstart Inc. and awarded under contract EA-133W-14-SU-0268. Under a subsequent procurements to Lithiumstart Inc. the battery was destructively (explosion and fire) tested to ensure the safety of the battery during shipping, handling, and installation on marine platforms. A follow-on procurement in 2016 added a heater to the design to ensure the full functioning of the battery in stations located above the 45 latitude. During fiscal year 2015 and 2016 small quantities of the designed batteries were purchased for laboratory and field testing and the design was tweaked with improved anodized coatings to reduce corrosion in the marine environment. The SCOOP system including the Lithiumstart Lithium-ion rechargeable battery is now in the process of undergoing commissioning for operational use and anticipated to be deployed in April of 2018. Required delivery is 120 days ARO. The North American Industry Classification System Code is 335911 Storage Battery Manufacturing, and the Small Business Size Standard is 1250 employees. Set-aside Status: The statutory authority for other than full and open competition is FAR 13.106-1(b)(ii), Only one responsible source. The Contracting Officer has determined that there is not a reasonable expectation of obtaining offers from two or more responsible small business concerns; therefore, this requirement has not been set aside for small businesses. Interested parties are advised that the minimum qualifying standards for technical acceptability are as follows: - Smart Module Technology for wirelessly reporting battery health - Total weight <25 pounds - Water tight enclosure capable of exposure to marine environment - Size 14.5"width x 14.5" length x 27" height - Vibration/shock/ Drop Specs: MIL-STD-167-1A Section 5.1.2.4.7 MILSTD810G Method 514.6 Procedure I and Shock Method 516.6 Procedure IV (Transit Drop) or commercial equivalents - Meet UN T1T8 Transportation requirements - Life expectancy ? 300 charge/discharge cycles All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal or quote by January 3, 2018. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement in the future. Evidence must be provided of ability to provide the requirement. A capability statement and any other information furnished must be in writing, and must contain material in sufficient detail to allow NOAA to determine if the party can meet all of the foregoing requirements.
