PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS)

ABB/Baldor MotiFlex e100 Repair

1. DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES/INTRODUCTION: This contract shall provide the necessary diagnosis, repair, and testing services for NSWCCDs ABB/Baldor MotiFlex e100 (MFE460A010B) Drives. The drives will have been removed from service due to a range of issues.

2. BACKGROUND: The Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division (NSWCCD) has a wavemaker that uses 216 ABB/Baldor MotiFlex e100 drives, with MF-OPT-013 feedback cards in slot 2, to individually drive 216 Baldor BSM90N-4180AA servo motors. Each motor independently moves a paddle allowing NSWCCD to make the required waves. The wavemaker is integral to the testing requirements of the US Navy. NSWCCD also has 45 spare ABB/Baldor MotiFlex e100 drives for use in replacing failed drives. The drives were originally purchased and installed as part of the MASK Wavemaker Upgrade (2006-2013). During that time ABB purchased Baldor, and eventually discontinued the MotiFlex e100 drives. NSWCCD was able to purchase several new drives before ABB discontinued the drives. Due to the proprietary nature of the software that creates the waves, it is not possible, currently for NSWCCD to replace the drives with newer drives. Therefore, to continue to meet the testing needs of the Navy, and to maintain operational status, NSWCCD needs to repair the non-functional drives that are currently on hand.

3. OBJECTIVE:

1. The contractor shall inspect, test, and diagnose the issue with each individual drive sent for repair. (A001)

2. The contractor shall make repairs to the drive to make it functional again.

3. In the event that the drive cannot be repaired the contractor shall do the following:

1. The contractor shall notify the Government of the issue with the drive and the reason it is not repairable.

2. The Government will then decide whether to have the non-functional drive returned or recycled/disposed of.

3. The contractor can charge a diagnostic fee at a prearranged price to cover work done to attempt to fix the drive.

4. The contractor shall test the repaired drive using a Baldor Servo motor, and a MF-OPT-013 resolver card in option card slot 2.

5. The contractor shall return the drive to the Government, within 30 days of receipt of the drive, with a report of what was found and what was done to repair the drive. (A002)

1. If more than three (3) drives are shipped to the contractor at the same time, the contractor may request and extension to the repair time.

6. The contractor shall warranty all work done for 1 year from date the repaired drive is received by the Government. (A003)

4. SPECIAL QUALIFICATIONS:

1. The contractor shall have a minimum of (5) five years' experience repairing ABB/Baldor Servo Drives or be an ABB/Baldor Authorized Repair Partner.

2. The contractor shall have their own MF-OPT-013 Resolver Option Card, and Servo Motor for testing the repaired drives.

5. GOVERNMENT FURNISHED EQUIPMENT/PROPERTY/INFORMATION:

1. The current Government inventory of ABB/Baldor MotiFlex e100 drives is listed below, however this list is subject to change and can be added to via modification. (A004)

52.212-2 EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS AND COMMERCIAL SERVICES (NOV 2021)

(a) Basis for Award

The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose quotation conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotations:

Factor 1 Price Quotes must include a proposed price for each Contract Line Item Number (CLIN). The Government will determine prices to be fair and reasonable in accordance with FAR Part 13.106-3 based on, but limited to, market research, current or previous purchases, prices for similar performance in a related industry, and comparison to an independent Government estimate.

Quoters responding to this solicitation are advised that, prior to award, the Government may request quoters to submit information/data to support price reasonableness such as copies of paid invoices for the same or similar items, sales history for the same or similar items, price list with effective date and/or copies of catalog pages along with any applicable discounts.

Factor 2: Technical Capability

The Government will evaluate the Quoter for acceptability of Technical Capability.

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

TABLE 1 - TECHNICAL RATINGS

A quote must be rated "ACCEPTABLE" for the quote to be eligible for award. An "UNACCEPTABLE" rating for Technical Capability/Apprach 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.

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.

Minimum Requirements:

The following are the minimum requirements a quote must meet to be deemed acceptable for the Technical Capability factor:

1. The quoted supplies/services shall meet the solicitation requirements including any required parts, delivery dates, and terms and conditions stated in the solicitation.

QUESTIONS: Any questions in relation to this solicitation shall be submitted to Arnel Ngo by email at arnel.a.ngo.civ@us.navy.mil. The cut-off date for questions is 12:00 PM Eastern Standard Time (EST) on 17 May, 2022.
