About this file

This document is a Statement of Work (SOW) for NASA's requirement for electrical wiring of all NASA aerospace vehicles. The SOW specifies that the wiring must be identified using the Spectrum Technologies NOVA 50-102i Laser Wire Marker machine, which complies with the relevant aerospace standards.

The related federal contract opportunity is a sole source procurement for the Spectrum Technologies NOVA 50-102i Laser Wire Marker machine. NASA/NSSC intends to award a sole source contract to WRIGHT TOOL COMPANY, LLC under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), as WRIGHT TOOL COMPANY, LLC is the sole provider of the required machine. The procurement will be conducted as a commercial item acquisition under FAR Part 12 and FAR Part 13. The NAICS code is 333998. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications by 4:00 p.m. Central Standard Time on 9/27/2024, but the government has sole discretion to determine whether to conduct the procurement competitively.

STATEMENT OF WORK

1. Objective/Requirements NASA requires electrical wiring of all NASA aerospace vehicles. In order to accomplish this wiring per NASA standards and safety practices, NASA requires the adherence to the aerospace standards (AS). The SAE AS50881, Wiring Aerospace Vehicles, calls out for the identification of these installed wires using the AS5649, UV Laser Wire and Cable Marking Processes and the AIR5558, Ultraviolet (UV) Laser Marking Performance of Aerospace Wire Constructions. This identification is accomplished by the use of a Laser Wire Marker machine like the Spectrum Technologies NOVA 50-102i Laser Wire Marker machine.

All laser wire marking safety follows AFOP-1800.1-010, Laser Safety and Non- Laser Optical Light Safety Program.

2. Characteristics, Scope, and Specs

The NOVA 50-101i complies with the SAE AS4373 , Test methods for insulated electric wire. This SAE AS4373 standard references the AS50881 and AS5649, along with many other standards required for the wiring of aerospace vehicles.

Other qualification of the NOVA 50-102i are the Boeing Spec BAC, Identification of Electric Wire and Wire Bundles and Sikorsky SS7333 – Identification Marking of Wire/Cable.
