PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS)/STATEMENT OF WORK (SOW)

Carriage 5 Motor and Generator Service

1.0 DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES/INTRODUCTION: Division 89 of the NSWCCD is seeking PM (Preventive Maintenance) services for two electrical motors and two DC generators. These rotating machines are part of the Division 89 testing facility Towing Carriage 5. The machines include two DC generators of a large MG (Motor Generator) set, and two (2) Carriage 5 drive motors. Total number of machines included in this contract is four (4). This document will define the functionality of the above-mentioned machines and their respective functions. This document will also define the work desired for these machines to refurbish them to original factory conditions.

2.0 BACKGROUND: Towing Carriage 5 is located in building four (4) of the NSWCCD West Bethesda site. Twelve (12) DC electrical motors drive the carriage. Each motor is rated at 165 Horse Power (HP) at a maximum speed 3500 RPM and is capable of delivering 400 HP during acceleration. These motors are powered by a large MG set located in the Building 4E Substation. This MG set includes a 4200 HP AC synchronous motor and two 1500 Kilowatt generators. Division 89 intends to service two of the 165 HP drive motors and the two DC 1500 Watt generators associated with Carriage 5.

2.1. 165 HP Drive motors Division 89 has 14 of such motors, 12 of which are installed on the carriage. These motors have not seen proper PM services in a long time, in excess of 20 years. General Electric manufactures these motors. Model 5GE 1239 A1. Two of the fourteen motors are accessories to the carriage and have not been serviced since original delivery. Division 89 intends to service these drive motors and put them into operation. We intend to rotate these machines to switch out active machines on the carriage. When performing PM in this manner, Division 89 may ensure the least amount down time for our Carriage 5 testing facility.

2.2. Carriage 5 MG Set Generators

This MG set consist of three (3) individual machines that are mechanically coupled to each other via shafting. The synchronous motor is centrally located, while the two DC generators reside on the east and west of the synchronous motor. The synchronous motor is denoted as M2 and the east and west generators are denoted as G4 and G5 respectively. This MG set is responsible for generating the electrical power required to run Carriage 5. This MG set was last serviced in 2001, twenty years ago to date. These machines have provided countless hours of services for various testing needs in duration. During recent maintenance, Division 89 discovered large amount of cracking and chipping insulating material on the DC generators. The generators are still functional, however requires immediate PM services to ensure the future functionality. There is very high probability of failure of the electrical system if untreated.

52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS

(a) Basis for Award

The Government has determined that an award to the responsible Quoter that submits the Lowest-Priced, Technically Acceptable (LPTA) quote in response to this solicitation will represent the best value to the Government. Quotes will be evaluated to determine the LPTA quote based on the following factors:

Factor 1 Price Factor 2 Technical Capability/Approach

A quote must be rated "ACCEPTABLE" for each non-price factor to be eligible for award. An "UNACCEPTABLE" rating for any non-price factor will result in the entire quote being rated "UNACCEPTABLE" overall; an overall rating of "UNACCEPTABLE" makes a quote ineligible for award. A quote must contain sufficient information to enable evaluators to determine acceptability; if there is insufficient information to determine acceptability of the quote, the quote will be rated “UNACCEPTABLE” overall. Each of the evaluation factors will be rated as set forth below. Technical tradeoffs will not be made and no additional credit will be given for exceeding acceptability.

The Government will evaluate the lowest priced quote for technical acceptability. If it is not acceptable, the Government will evaluate the next lowest quote for technical acceptability, and so forth, to determine the lowest-priced, technically acceptable quote, at which point all evaluations will stop.

The Government reserves the right to request that the awardee reduce its total price, or adjust CLIN prices with no change to total price, in order to reduce administrative costs and avoid unnecessary burdens for the agency pursuant to FAR 13.002.

(b) Evaluation Factors Factor 1: Price Quotes must include a proposed price for each Contract Line Item Number (CLIN). The Government will determine prices by adding the total proposed price for all CLINS, including all options. Quotes will be ranked from lowest- to highest-priced.

Factor 2: Technical Capability The Government will evaluate the lowest priced Quoter for acceptability of Technical Capability. If the quote is not found to be acceptable, the Government will evaluate the next lowest quote for acceptability of technical capability, and so forth, to determine the lowest-priced quote that is acceptable for Technical Capability, at which point evaluators will evaluate of the acceptability of that quoter’s Past Performance.

Technical Capability evaluations will result in one of the following ratings:
