About this file

This is a Statement of Work (SOW) and RFI for the manufacture of Large/Intermediate Type Universal CPP Dummy Hub assemblies for the Naval Surface Warfare Center Philadelphia Division (NSWCPD). The dummy hubs are special lifting and handling fixtures used for inspection and repair of Navy Controllable Pitch Propeller blades. The Large-Type hubs are for DDG-51 ATD, DDG-51 Fleet, and CG-47 vessels, while Intermediate-Type hubs are for LPD-17, LHA-6, and LSD-41 vessels.

The contractor must manufacture the hub assemblies according to NAVSEA drawings, complete pre and post-crated visual inspections, conduct dimensional inspections, and provide packaging/crating. Key deliverables include monthly status reports, inspection reports, and certification documents. The work will be performed 100% at contractor facilities with no travel required. Responses to the RFI are due by 4:00 PM EST on April 5, 2025 and should not exceed 5 pages. Submissions should be sent electronically to Grace Haley at Grace.k.Haley.civ@us.navy.mil. The contractor must maintain ISO 9001 quality management system certification and NAVSEA certified welding procedures/personnel.

Statement of Work (SOW) for Manufacture of Large or Intermediate Type Universal CPP Dummy Hub(s)

1.0 INTRODUCTION

1.0.1 The Naval Surface Warfare Center Philadelphia Division (NSWCPD) is a Department of Defense entity responsible for research and development, test and evaluation, engineering and fleet support organization for the Navy’s ships, submarines, military watercraft and unmanned vehicles. This requirement is for NSWCPD Code 427, which is responsible for Main Propulsion Equipment.

1.0.3 Government/Contractor Relationship

1.0.3.1 The services to be delivered under this Contract are non-personal services and the parties recognize and agree that no employer-employee relationship exists or will exist under the Contract between the Government and the Contractor's personnel. Therefore, it is in the best interest of the Government to provide both parties a full understanding of their respective obligations.

1.0.3.2 The Contractor employees shall identify themselves as Contractor personnel by introducing themselves or being introduced as Contractor personnel and displaying distinguishable badges or other visible identification for meetings with Government personnel.

1.1 BACKGROUND

The Unites States Navy (USN) relies on the use of special lifting and handling fixtures for inspection and repair of USN Controllable Pitch Propeller (CPP) blades. One of these fixtures, referred to as the CPP “Dummy Hub”, allow the Navy to mount CPP blades in the same position and orientation as they would be on a real CPP hub, enabling balancing capability, application of blade gages for inspection, and access to the blades pressure and suction faces during repair.

The USN has many different CPP dummy hubs in inventory with applicability to one ship class and/or one blade design (Right-Hand or Left-Hand Rotation). The latest “universal” dummy hub designs allow for the application of a wide-range of blade designs from different ship classes.

Large-Type Universal Dummy Hub Applicability:

· DDG-51 ATD

· DDG-51 Fleet

· CG-47

Intermediate-Type Universal Dummy Hub Applicability:

· LPD-17

· LHA-6

· LSD-41

1.2 SCOPE OF WORK

This contract involves the manufacture and inspection of large/intermediate type universal dummy hubs.

Each dummy hub assembly includes the following major components:

· Dummy Hub

· Adaptor Plate Sets (for each ship class)

· Mounting Hardware

· Lifting, Handling, and Leveling Hardware

· Crating for Shipping & Storage
