- Description
- NASA/LaRC is hereby soliciting information for potential sources for ELECTRONIC FABRICATION AND ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT SUPPORT(EFEES) to NASA Langley Research Center (LaRC), Hampton, Virginia. An advance notice is published herein to provide information about services that are required.= =20 The Contractor shall provide technical support to fabricate research-oriented electronics circuitry to include circuit assemblies for ground support, aircraft, spaceflight, laboratory, and research facility instrumentation requirements. These services shall encompass four functional Electronics Fabrication work areas with daily support services provided for: General Electronics Fabrication, Aircraft Electronics Fabrication, Microelectronics Fabrication, and Special Fabrication Processes. In addition, the Contractor shall provide Electronic Equipment Support consisting of various maintenance, repair, and other related services for a variety of Government-owned Computer Numerical Control (CNC) and conventional machinery and equipment. This procurement action is intended to result in a performance based cost reimbursement contract with work requests being issued by the government containing performance requirements and delivery schedules specified therein. The work locations for this effort is estimated as follows for the areas of work described above: General fabrication 80% contractor facility, 20% LaRC locations; Aircraft Fabrication 100% (LaRC Building); Microelectronics Fabrication 100% (LaRC Building) ; Special Fabrication Processes 95% contractor facility, 5% various LaRC locations; and Electronic Equipment Support 100% performed on site. Support will be provided primarily for first shift operations, but some second and third shift work is required. The contractor should be prepared to perform emergency support work in all work areas on a 24-hour, 7-days a week basis. ELECTRONICS FABRICATION SUPPORT: General Electronics Fabrication -- This includes electronics fabrication support to produce general electronics circuitry and hardware.=20 Requirements range from fabrication and assembly of printed circuit boards, cable assemblies, wiring harnesses, and electronics chassis; to installation and wiring of complete research test facilities; to fabrication and assembly of electronics hardware components and subsystems for Center aeronautical or aerospace research projects. Aircraft Electronics Fabrication -- This includes electronics fabrication support to produce aircraft electronics circuitry such as data acquisition instrumentation, telemetry systems, electronic display units, and a variety of ground support equipment for LaRC's flight research aircraft. This also includes mechanical fabrication of support equipment, racks, instrumentation pallets, hardware modifications for installation into various research aircraft and facilities. Microelectronics Fabrication -- This includes the performance of technical functions necessary for microelectronics circuit and sensor fabrication such as deposition of materials, photochemical patterning of circuit elements and interconnections, mounting of microminature components, etc. Special Fabrication Processes -- This includes printed circuit board fabrication; photoplotting, photographing, and processing of printed circuit board electronic artwork data files; graphics-related processes including computerized engraving and vinyl cutting, metal photo imaging and graphics artwork layout and other related processes; and coatings application processes including conformal coating, staking, encapsulating and other related processes. ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT SUPPORT: Electronic equipment support involves the installation, repair, maintenance, assembly, modification, setup, operation, testing, and calibration of a variety of Government-owned Computer Numerical Control (CNC) and conventional machinery and equipment such as CNC controllers, positioning controls and readouts, speed controls, interfacing/networking equipment, and electrical discharge machines. No solicitation exists; therefore, do not request a copy of the solicitation. If a solicitation is released it will be synopsized in FedBizOpps and on the NASA Acquisition Internet Service. It is the potential offerors responsibility to monitor these cites for the release of any solicitation or synopsis. Responses must include the following: name and address of firm, size of business; average annual revenue for past 3 years and number of employees; ownership; whether they are large, small, small disadvantaged, 8(a), HUBZone, and/or woman-owned; number of years in business; affiliate information: parent company, joint venture partners, potential teaming partners, prime contractor (if potential sub) or subcontractors (if potential prime); list of customers covering the past five years (highlight relevant work performed, contract numbers, contract type, dollar value of each procurement; and point of contact - address and phone number). Technical questions should be directed to: Alan Frizzell at (757) 864-5413 or email: a.w.frizzell@larc.nas.gov. Procurement related questions should be directed to: Elaine J. Powell at (757)864-2429 or email: e.j.powell@larc.nasa.gov.= =20 Please advise if the requirement is considered to be a commercial or commercial-type product. A commercial item is defined in Internet "Note A". [INTERNET ONLY (commercial product definition)] This synopsis is for information and planning purposes and is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government nor will the Government pay for information solicited. Respondents will not be notified of the results of the evaluation. Respondents deemed fully qualified will be considered in any resultant solicitation for the requirement. The Government reserves the right to consider a small business or 8(a) set-aside based on responses hereto. All responses shall be submitted to NASA Langley Research Center, Attn: Industry Assistance Office, Mail Stop 144, Hampton, VA 23681-2199, no later than September 27, 2002.
