Statement of Objectives (SOO) For the Western Range AGM 60/600 Replacement

26 MAR 2025

SLD 30/RM

826 13th Street Bldg 7011 Vandenberg Space Force Base, CA 93437 i

1 BACKGROUND

The AGM-600 Power Plants are installed at numerous Instrumentation and Command system locations throughout the Western Range in support of communications requirements, including Range Safety Critical Command and Antenna pointing data circuits. These units provide 48 Volt Direct Current power for the communications equipment.

The AGM Power Plants have surpassed the end-of-life stage and onto the end of service stage whereby the vendor can no longer provide support. Additionally, there is difficulty finding another vendor to service replacement parts. The rectifiers, resistors and circuit card assemblies for the AGM Power Plants are no longer vendor supported for replacement of parts.

Diminishing Manufacturer Source Material Shortage (DMSMS) cases for modulators DM-09-0069, for rectifiers DM-09-0152, for resistors DM-10-0015, and for circuit card assemblies DM-10-0014 and DM-11-0059 are open to document these risks. Without spare parts, the power plants cannot be maintained.

2 SCOPE

2.1 The objective for this Statement of Objectives (SOO) is to procure, deliver, and install a technical replacement for the AGM60/600 Battery Plants at various buildings at Vandenberg Space Force Base (VSFB), CA.

2.2 The contractor shall provide all labor, materials, and incidentals to complete all requirements herein.

2.3 The contractor shall provide all new equipment and materials, free of corrosion, scratches, burrs, or any other such defects. No part shall be substituted or applied contrary to the manufacturer’s recommendations and standard practices.

2.4 The following product drawings shall be redlined with the installation details of the new UPS for all five sites:

· Parts lists to go with the rack elevations

· Floorplan

· Single line diagram

4 PROJECT DESCRIPTION

4.1 The Government’s intent is to procure, install and integrate a replacement of the AGM60/600 systems in the following locations at Vandenberg Space Force Base (VSFB):

4.2 Table 1 contains the reference Requirement Statement (RS) that providing Range-level justification for this effort:

Table 1: Requirement Statement for AGM600 Systems

4.3 Description Of New Capability/Requirement:

Justification: The current AGM600 battery plants are obsolete and are no longer supported by the manufacturer. Diminishing Manufacturer Source Material Shortage (DMSMS) cases for modulators DM-09-0069, rectifiers DM-09-0152, resistors DM-10-0015, and for circuit card assemblies DM-10-0014 and DM-11-0059 are open to document these risks.

Impact/Risk: Without spare parts, the power plants cannot be maintained. LTRS equipment that relies on -48VDC power at instrumentation will eventually lose capability and cease to function.

5 REQUIREMENTS

5.1 The supplier shall provide all labor, materials, and incidentals to complete all requirements herein.

5.2 The supplier shall provide all new equipment and materials, free of corrosion, scratches, burrs, or any other such defects. No part shall be substituted or applied contrary to the manufacturer’s recommendations and standard practices.

5.3 All sites specified are backed up by generator and all sites, except for B518, are backed up by site UPS with a tech power bus. Therefore, only -48VDC battery sources are required without additional battery back-up for the DC power source, as would be supplied with a new battery plant. Additionally, B518 will require an AC UPS capable of supplying the site load for 5 minutes at the minimum.

5.4 The supplier shall complete a thorough evaluation of the Government’s legacy -48VDC battery system(s) and available technical documentation to confirm requirements, conduct early planning, address and plan for safety, and validate/invalidate technical and operational assumptions. During this initial site evaluation, the supplier shall develop and deliver a white paper that includes technical considerations for downtime required to replace the -48VDC Battery Plant, testing the new system and cutting over to full operation maintainability at each site.

5.5 The supplier shall provide an A/B DC distribution bus panel using GMT fuse panels if site is not designed for A/B power configuration. If additional fuse panels are required, the supplier shall wire units for A/B operation if equipped. The supplier shall cut over all new circuits to the DC fuse panel.

5.6 Table 2 has the site-specific load requirements:

Table 2: Site DC Load Requirements

5.7 The supplier shall plan to complete cut over in less than 8 hours.

The supplier shall provide TAA compliant -48VDC Power Supplies (2 (Two) each Kepco RA-60 enclosures containing 2 (Two) each Kepco HSP 48-30RM DC Power Supplies or equivalent.) Power supplies must be hot-swappable.

CDRL A009, DI-MISC-80508B, Product Indenture Report (PIR)

5.8 Each power supply shelf shall be powered from the Tech Bus panel at each site, where neither breaker is on the same phase.

5.9 Building 518 runs on generator only for backup power so there is no AC UPS Tech power panel. AC power for -48VDC Power Supplies must be supplied by 2 (Two) each UPS units. These units must be powered from 2 separate phases. Power source can be 110 or 220 VAC. Run time for full power should be at least 5 minutes.

5.10 The Contractor shall remove and legally dispose of the existing -48 DC Battery Plant systems at each site upon successful installation, testing and cutover.

5.11 The Contractor shall supply a manufacturer recommended spares kit for each site.
