1.0 Introduction
This is a Sources Sought Notice only. This notice is issued solely for information and planning purposes - it does not constitute a Request for Quote (RFQ), Request for Proposal (RFP), or a promise to issue a formal solicitation in the future.
The Department of War (DoW) is conducting market research to identify qualified and capable vendors, including small businesses (e.g., 8(a), Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, HUBZone, Women-Owned), that can provide, deliver, and install a Hyperbaric Chamber System.
The government intends to solicit a firm-fixed-price contract. Delivery is FOB destination to USAF Academy, CO 80840. All contractors doing business with the Federal Government must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) database. The website for registration is www.sam.gov.
2.0 Background and Requirement Description
The US Air Force Academy has a requirement for a commercially available or modified-commercial Hyperbaric Chamber System to support the Dean of Faculty Department of Biology.
The anticipated core requirements for the system include, but are not limited to:
SALIENT CHARACTERISTICS:
1. Dynamic O2 and CO2 Controller with the following requirements:
a. O2 Control Range: 0.1% - 99.9% with accuracy of ± 1%
b. CO2 Control Range: 0.1% - 20% with accuracy of ± 1.5%
c. Gas control resolution of 0.1%
d. Digital Controller that displays process values and provides interface to control gas infusion
e. Dynamic programming and profile creation enabling multiple setpoints, ranges and number of cycles
f. Pod-based sensor that monitors/measures conditions within chamber (discussed below) and communicates to the gas controller to maintain desired gas concentrations
g. Connections for O2, N2 and CO2. Gas source delivered through compressed gas cylinders
h. Bi-directional control action with O2 gas infusion for raising O2 and nitrogen gas infusion for lowering O2.
i. Bi-directional control action with CO2 gas infusion for raising CO2 and nitrogen gas infusion for lowering CO2.
j. Graphical trending and data logging capabilities
2. System Chamber with the following requirements:
a. Enclosure with a polycarbonate and stainless steel construction for durability and corrosion resistance
b. Enclosure is compatible with the gas controller listed above
c. Enclosure with 2 shelves, each shelf has a minimum dimension of 12.75" W × 10.25" D
d. Enclosure dimensions are no larger than 14"W x 13"D x 6"H
e. Enclosure protects samples of interest from room air exposure/environmental instability and permits the precise control of oxygen, nitrogen and carbon dioxide gas concentrations
f. Enclosure fits within most third-party incubators
3.0 Requested Information (Capability Statement)
Interested parties are requested to submit a Capability Statement demonstrating their ability to fulfill this requirement. Please include the following information structured in your response:
