- Description
- This synopis is for informational purposes only. The Marine Corps Systems Command (MCSC) intends to issue a Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) contract to Nevada Automotive Test Center (NATC) of Carson City, NV, for testing, engineering support services, technical support, systems engineering, program management, and logistical support for ground vehicle systems within the Marine Corps as a sole source contract. Tasks to be included in orders placed against this BOA include the following: Design and fabrication of prototype concept vehicles and subsystems to include ballistic and automotive performance testing, Vehicle testing, to include but not limited to: Accelerated Life; Vehicle Dynamics; Reliability, Availability, Maintainability and Durability (RAM-D); provide and install vehicle instrumentation to monitor Acceleration, Speed, Temperature, Flow, Pressure, Force/Torque, Stress Analysis, Sound, Light, Displacement/Proximity, GPS tracking, Toxic Gas, Electrical Power Loads, Electrical Properties and Parameters; and provide and install vehicle instrumentation required to obtain data for model parameters and to verify modeling and simulation predictions. Systems Engineering support may include the following: Engineering/technical assessments of test failures; Review and recommendations related to prime contractor responses to test incident reports; Engineering/technical recommendations for correction of test related issues; Preparation of documentation of test results (test reports, test incident reports, etc.); Modeling & simulation, including mobility modeling and other computer based simulations of vehicle and test events; Development and application of test related instrumentation; and other engineering support for test requirements. Any data deliverable required as a result of the services performed will be defined at the time of tasking. Data may include, but is not limited to drawings and technical manuals. NATC is the only qualified contractor within the United States capable of providing the services required as a result of the unique facilities, test ranges, and automotive engineering test expertise. NATC's facilities are uniquely situated where the terrain profile covers elevation ranges from below sea level to 10,000 feet in altitude and represents 85% of the world surfaces. NATC is the only test site that provides the Marine Corps with access to vehicle test courses and ranges that were developed over naturally occurring terrain features with the severity and roughness which physically replicates the Marine Corps cross country and off-road mission profile in order to effectively test the operational capabilities of Marine Corps ground vehicles. All inquiries on this action can be submitted in writing (no phone calls will be accepted) by facsimile to (703-432-3160) or email to (lynn.smith@usmc.mil) NO LATER THAN 01 February 2011 @ (3:00 pm EST).
