SOW 3.1 8 SOW 3.1 Q&A asked “What type of communication should be maintained?” regarding the central computer. The answer was “It is used for remote maintenance as well as historical data gathering.” – This is insufficient information to base a proposed new solution on. Can the government provide a description of the maintenance functions performed on the central computer, what data elements are transferred between the test stand and central computer, and what software communication protocol is used for this communication? The test stand must be connected to the 3902 SQL server via the fiber network already located at the test stand but not currently used.
The SQL data base stores Test Stand calibration data, Calibration Cart calibration data and End item test results.
| SOW 3.1 | 8 | Questions on bullet points in SOW 3.1: | |
| “New Test Program Sets (TPS)” – Is this meant to state “New Test Program Sets (TPS) shall be provided for the four (4) fuel pumps listed in SOW paragraph 1.2.”? | Yes, New Test Program Sets Shall be provided for the four (4) listed in SOW. These sets are software only as the original hardware sets will be maintained. | ||
| SOW 3.1 | 8 | “200-8000 RPM ±2 RPM 100ft/lbs constant torque drive/VFD” – Are we correct in understanding that this is not a requirement of the upgrade, but rather a description of what is currently in the test stand? | Yes, this is currently what is in the test stand and will be maintained. However, the upgrade will need to communicate, monitor and control the drive for speed, direction of rotation, acceleration, deacceleration, temperature and vibration. A means to measure torque must be added, operating in a Class I Division 1 environment with a range of 20-150 ft-lbs, accurate to ±1 ft-lbs. |
| SOW 3.1 | 8 | “Correlation testing is required between upgraded stand, and “master” stand.” (also SOW 4.8 & Appendix H) – It appears that the government will run each of the four (4) pump, five (5) times on an existing stand and five (5) times on the upgraded stand with the contractor present to resolve any issues. How long does the government anticipate this correlation exercise taking (in days)? | The Government estimates the correlation runs for the four (4) pumps on the upgraded test stand to take 5 days total. This assumes all pumps have been functionally tested and all issues, if any, have been resolved. |
