PROGRAM BACKGROUND Aberdeen Test Center (ATC) provides various simulated environment testing in support of a diverse test arena for the Department of the Army. Most of these test services rely on the use of complex environmental test chambers that include custom-built Heating, Ventilating, Air Conditioning and Refrigeration (HVACR) systems. These HVACR systems are not fully comparable to other residential and/or industrial HVACR systems, and generally require specialized components, systems and/or a variety of refrigerants to properly function. Further, many of these systems were manufactured over 25 years ago, potentially limiting the availability of technical documentation and/or replacement parts. See Attachment One for the Equipment List within the PWS. These systems are crucial in the testing of weapons, ammunition, body armor and other soldier systems that ultimately impact the Warfighter�s ability to complete his/her mission. Therefore, it is critical that these systems always remain operable, 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, 365 days per year, and fully comply with the strict testing standards set forth by the Department of Defense (MIL-STD-810G: Environmental Engineering Considerations and Laboratory Tests).�
