The Naval Air Warfare Command, Aircraft Division has a requirement for shock testing of the following three pieces of equipment: Boundary Defense Network Rack Test Assembly (Part Number 4189AS2000-1T1) Boundary Defense Network Rack Test Assemblies, and Boundary Defense Network Enclosure Test Assemblies (Part number 4189AS2001-1T1/1T2) with associated mounting fixtures, and Network Switch Rack Mark II Assembly (Part Number 4189S2101-1). Tests shall performed in accordance with MIL-DTL-901E Explosive Shock Test Procedures for Shock Qualification of Equipment on Heavyweight Floating Shock Platform types with or without Deck Simulating Fixtures. Testing shall be completed to qualify the equipment to meet vertical axis specified orientations. Only companies identified in NAVSEAINST 9491.1D are qualified to perform the testing required by MIL-DTL-901E Barge Shock Testing for the Navy. To provide a quote, the vendor must be approved and included in NAVSEAINST 9491.1D. Testing is required to demonstrate the ability of the equipment to meet Navy survivability requirements by successfully completing Shock Testing. There are two approved methods for doing heavy weight Grade A shock testing of mission critical class II equipment. These are only acceptable test procedures involves mounting the equipment on a Deck Simulator Fixture (DSF) in a standard Floating Shock Platform (FSP) and then conducting a series of underwater detonations, and measuring the results in accordance with the testing procedures spelled out in MIL-DTL-901E and documenting the results in accordance with Government provided Contract Data Requirements Lists provided with the Statement of Work. To qualify, a current DD 2345 will be required as export controlled technical data is necessary to access data necessary for the testing. Currently, NAVSEAINST 9491.1 only lists National Technical Systems and Hi-Test Laboratories as qualified to perform the necessary Explosive Shock Tests. As a result, they will be solicited to provide quotations on a limited competition basis to complete the testing. This is the only notice that will be posted on FedBizOps prior to contract award. This acquisition is being pursued on the ability of a Contractor to perform required testing under the statutory authority of Title 10, U.S.C. Section 2304(c) (1), as implemented by Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1, "Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements." The Government will consider all responses received within 15 days after the publication of the applicable synopsis. A determination by the Government not to include other sources is solely within the discretion of the Government and will be determined IAW NAVSEAINST 9491.1. Information provided herein is subject to change and in no way binds the Government to solicit for or award a contract based upon this advertisement, or to be responsible for any monies expended by any interested parties before award of a contract for the effort described above.
