Requirement Description for Custom VLF Transmitter System

Solicitation # FA9453-15-R-0079

1. System Description:

The system consists of an amplifier element and a custom controller, which may form a single integrated unit, and may require an output transformer to feed a balanced load.

Minimum performance criteria:

Amplifier:

continuous output power 50 - 70 kW (125 kVA) (prefer high end, may be multiple amps combined)

Pulse output power 90-110 kW (125 kVA) 50% duty cycle waveform for >=15 minutes (one shot every few hours is adequate)

3 dB freq range: 14 - 35 kHz total harmonic distortion: < 5 % (3 rd and 5 th harmonic less than -40 dB of maximum output; all other harmonics at less than -50 dB) efficiency at full power >=80% for resistive loads no external cooling or ducting operate with room temperature up to 50 degrees C front panel meters for output voltage and current power input: 480 V, 3-phase, 60 Hz stair step modulation

Controller:

Sine wave synthesis, 14 – 35 kHz Continuous wave and programmable on-off keying Independently-specified on-off periods 0.5s – 5s duration for each state Manual Power control

Transformer:

A custom output transformer with taps may be required, depending on the design, to transmit amplifier power to the load. The intended load is estimated as ~ (25 95) + j0 (depending on frequency).

2. Additional Information Responsive offerors shall address the system requirements in section 1 and propose to the following delivery constraints:

Quantity: 1 complete system Delivery: For proposal costing, offerors should assume the following delivery address:

ATTACHMENT 2

BASIS FOR CONTRACT AWARD: The evaluation will be based on the evaluation criteria established for each evaluation factor as noted below. The evaluation board will not consider any information or data incorporated by reference or otherwise referred to.

The award will be made based on the best overall proposal that is determined to be the most beneficial to the Government, with appropriate consideration given to the three evaluation factors. The Government will award a contract to the responsible offeror whose offer conforms to the solicitation and is expected to result from selection of the technically acceptable proposal with the lowest price. To be technically acceptable, an offeror shall receive a rating of pass on all technical factors.

The Government intends to award a contract without discussions with respective offers. The Government, however, reserves the right to conduct discussions if deemed in its best interest.

Factor 2: Past Performance A minimum satisfactory rating (Acceptable/ Unacceptable basis) will be made by references to the above sub-factor on similar scope contracts in the previous five years. A rating of acceptable will be based on the Offeror’s performance record; the Government has a reasonable expectation that the Offeror will successfully perform the required services under this contract.

Past Performance factors are rated on the basis of returned Contractor Past Performance Questionnaire from previous customers. Past Performance Questionnaires shall address projects that are similar in size, scope, and complexity of contract and ratings to demonstrate a high level of performance.

In order to receive an “Acceptable” rating in Factor 2: Past Performance, to include the Technical sub-factor, the contractor shall receive a minimum rating of “Acceptable” in the sub-factor from the returned

Past Performance Questionnaires. A rating of “Unacceptable” in any sub-factor will cause the entire factor to be rated “Unacceptable”.

An Offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available; the Offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance and receive an “Acceptable” rating.

The past performance factor will be evaluated in accordance to the Department of Defense Source

Selection Procedures. All factors will be rated using the following:

Past Performance Evaluation Ratings

Rating Description

Acceptable Based on the offeror’s performance record, the

Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort, or the offeror’s performance record is unknown.

Unacceptable Based on the offeror’s performance record, the

Government has no reasonable expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.
