About this file

This is a Request for Quotation (RFQ) for one unit of the Radian Research RB-21 Bantam Plus electric meter testing equipment, issued under RFQ 47QSSC-26-R-0026 by the General Services Administration (GSA) on behalf of the U.S. Navy's PW64 Meter Shop. The equipment is a portable, ANSI-compliant meter site test solution designed for field testing, troubleshooting, and certification of naval electrical meters. Key technical specifications include a 6.5-inch color touchscreen display, operational auxiliary power range of 90-300 VAC at 500W maximum, voltage output of 20-480 VAC with 0.25% accuracy, current output capability of 0.1-50 amperes, support for 27 different meter forms (1S through 96S), harmonic generation to the 50th order, and measurement accuracy of 200 ppm for power/energy functions. The equipment weighs 30.5 pounds with dimensions of 370mm x 260mm x 20.4 inches and operates in temperatures ranging from -10 to 50 degrees Celsius.

The solicitation specifies delivery to zip code 92136 within 50 days from order award (DARO). This is a brand-name acquisition conducted under FAR 6.103-1, as the RB-21 Bantam Plus is identified as the only commercially available portable meter test solution meeting PW64's technical requirements. The RFQ is not a small business set-aside. Award will be made on a "Lowest Price Technically Acceptable" basis to a responsible offeror with current representations and certifications in SAM.gov and registered to receive electronic orders. Offerors must provide complete pricing (unit and total), delivery lead times, country of origin, and attestations regarding child labor certifications, Buy American compliance, and foreign corporation representation requirements. Items must be marked with manufacturer's part number, name, and country of origin, and packaged in accordance with GSAM provisions, Federal Standard 123 for domestic deliveries, and the Navy's PRIME program requirements prohibiting plastic packaging and void fill materials.

This is a part-number specific acquisition in accordance with FAR 6.103-1, Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. PW64 Meter Shop performs field testing, troubleshooting, and certification of Navy electrical meters installed across multiple bases. The shop currently lacks a modern, portable, ANSI-compliant meter site test solution capable of performing 0.02% accuracy testing, 50-amp direct injection, and three-phase diagnostics required for today’s electronic meters. This is a new requirement, not a continuation of a previous contract. No prior contract exists for this item. PW64 has historically relied on legacy equipment that is no longer supported, lacks required accuracy and cannot interface with modern electronic meters. The RB-21 Bantam Plus is the only commercially available portable meter test solution that meets PW64’s technical requirements.
