Statement of Work

1.0 Introduction/Background

Explosives Research Branch needs a dielectric spectroscope to study amorphous and melt cast explosives.

2.0 Scope

To purchase a dielectric spectroscope system capable of rapid analysis of amorphous and melt cast explosives as they undergo melt.

3.0 Applicable Documents

NA

4.0 Requirements

The dielectric spectroscope shall be capable of the following.

Frequency Range of (3μHz to 20MHz).

Temperature Range of -100°C to 250°C Bias, ±40V, 70mA fast sampling rate (6ms/point)

This is critical to understanding how amorphous energetics function and how melt cast explosives undergo relaxation. The dynamic processing therefore, drives the requirements

5.0 Deliverables

1. One Dielectric Spectroscope

2. Operating Manual

3. Training on equipment

4. Installation support

6.0 Period of Performance

The equipment shall be installed at the following location listed below. Due to COVID-19 and the uncertainty when Picatinny will reopen, contractor shall not deliver any item(s) or begin performance at Picatinny until official authorization is provided by the PCO that work can commence. The date would be subject to further delay via contract modification depending upon the COVID-19 situation.

The Dielectric Spectroscope and Operating Manual shall be delivered by 5/1/2021

7.0 Shipping Provisions:

· The shipping address is: B3028, Picatinny Arsenal, NJ, 07054

The recipient shall prepare the report (DI-SAFT-81563) for each incident. (If applicable)

10.0 Environmental Requirements Pollution Prevention: Consideration should be given to alternative materials and processes in order to eliminate, reduce or minimize hazardous waste being generated. This is to be accomplished while minimizing item cost and risk to item performance.

· Environmental Compliance: All activities must be in compliance with Federal, State, and local environmental laws and regulations, Executive orders, treaties and agreements. The recipient shall evaluate the environmental consequences and identify the specific types and amounts of hazardous waste being generated during the conduct of efforts undertaken under an Ordnance Technology Initiative Agreement.

· Hazardous Waste Report: The recipient shall evaluate the environmental consequences and identify the specific types and amounts of hazardous waste being generated during this Ordnance Technology Initiative Agreement. The recipient shall submit a Hazardous waste report IAW DI-MGMT-80899.

· Disposal Instructions for Residual/Scrap Materials: The recipient shall dispose of all residual and scrap materials generated from this Ordnance Technology Initiative Agreement, including high explosives. The recipient shall specify the anticipated quantities, methods, and disposal costs.

· Ozone Depleting Chemical (ODC). Class 1 Ozone Depleting Chemicals (Class 1 ODCs) are used <or not used> in executing the SOW.

11.0 Security: The security level for this effort is UNCLASSIFIED

12.1 AT Level I Training. Requires the addition of: “All contractor employees, including subcontractor employees, requiring access to Department of Defense installations, facilities, or controlled access areas shall complete AT Level I awareness training within 45 calendar days after contract start date or effective date of incorporation of this requirement into the contract, whichever applies and within 12 months prior to travel outside of the US, then annually thereafter. The contractor shall submit certificates of completion for each affected contractor employee and subcontractor employee to the COR (or to the contracting officer, if a COR is not assigned) within 14 calendar days after completion of training by all employees and subcontractor personnel. AT Level I awareness training is available at http://jkodirect.jten.mil/.”

11.2 Access and General Protection/Security Policy and Procedures. Requires the addition of: “All contractor employees, including subcontractor employees, shall comply with all installation and facility access and local security policies and procedures (provided by the Government representative), and security/emergency management exercises. The contractor shall also provide all information required for background checks to meet installation access requirements to be accomplished by the installation Provost Marshal Office, Director of Emergency Services, or Security Office. Contractor workforce must comply with all personal identity verification requirements (CFR clause 52.204-9, Personal Identity Verification of Contract Personnel) as directed by DoD, HQDA and/or local policy. In addition to the changes otherwise authorized by the changes clause of this contract, should the Force Protection Condition (FPCON) at any individual facility or installation change, the Government may require changes in contractor security matters or processes. During FPCONs Charlie and Delta, services/installation access may be discontinued/postponed due to higher threat. Services will resume when FPCON level and or threat is reduced to an acceptable level as determined by the Installation Commander. Contractor personnel working on an installation are required to participate in the Installation Random Antiterrorism Measures Program as directed. Contractors may be subject to and must comply with vehicle searches, wearing of ID badges, etc. Failure to comply with policies and procedures could result in barred access onto the installation.

11.3 iWATCH (See Something, Say Something) Training. Requires the addition of: “All contractor employees, including subcontractor employees, shall receive training and participate in the local iWATCH program (training standards provided by the requiring activity ATO). This locally developed training will be used to inform employees of the types of behavior to watch for and instruct employees to report suspicious activity to the COR.
