Description of Requirements (DOR)

1.0 SCOPE. Naval Diving and Salvage Training Center (NDSTC) has a reoccurring requirement for the deliveries of bulk medical grade helium (HE), carbon dioxide (CO2) and the rental of two 2,000-liter CO2 micro-bulk storage tanks. Delivery of these gases support the dive training and evaluation of more than 1,200 joint service students annually.

2.0 DESCRIPTON OF SUPPLIES OR SERVICES

2.1 Helium (HE)

The vendor will deliver to NDSTC approximately 45,000 standard cubic feet of bulk HE in the first quarter of the calendar year, and possible a second delivery of the same quantity in the last half of the year. The vendor will transfer the HE into government owned storage tanks.

HE will meet the following US Navy Divers Compressed Helium Breathing Purity Requirements (Military Specification MIL-PRF-27407):

· Helium (percent by volume) 99.997%

· Moisture (water vapor) 9 ppm (max)

· Dew Point (not greater than) -78°F

· Hydrocarbons (as Methane) 1 ppm (max)

· Oxygen 3 ppm (max)

This rental will include general maintenance, urgent repairs, and notification of tank levels and warnings via the Telemetry Unit. The Telemetry unit is a proprietary unit that will monitor the levels of the CO2 and communicate directly with the vendor when the levels become low.

The vendor will provide CO2 as required. Anticipated delivery schedule requirement is 2-3 times per month with a total annual requirement of approximately 68,000 lbs.

7.0 DBIDS

· The Defense Biometric Identification System (DBIDS) is a DOD Owned and operated system developed by Defense Manpower Data Center as a force protection program to manage personnel identity and access at DoD installations. DBIDS is a network database system designed to easily verify access authorization of personnel entering military installations by using barcodes and fingerprint biometric identifications.

· In order to obtain base access, an individual need to acquire DoD sponsorship, have a thorough identity check, be properly vetted, and have a legitimate reason for base access. Identity checks require a passport or a Real ID Act-compliant state driver’s license. Vetting occurs when the individual’s background and ID are compared against authoritative criminal justice data bases, and the individual has a letter or official document from the sponsoring organization which articulates the reason for access. When the above criteria are satisfactorily met, DBIDs credentials are issued.
