For examinations performed by Contractor personnel on Government property, the Government may request the presence of an independent laboratory at its discretion. The laboratory shall be a member in good standing of the American Council of Independent Laboratories (ACIL). The laboratory shall be mutually agreeable between the Government and the Contractor. Prior to the performance of any tests the laboratory name, location and qualifications shall be submitted as part of a NDT Personnel/Laboratory Qualifications submittal.

3.5.2.2 Technician(s)

Technician(s) performing the inspection shall be certified in accordance with the American Society for Nondestructive Testing (ASNT). The inspector who is performing the UT inspection or who is acting as a representative from an independent testing lab shall, as a minimum, be NDT:ASNT-TC-1A level 2 qualified, with a minimum of 3 years experience at Level 2 in the last 5 years. The inspector's qualifications shall be included with the NDT Personnel/Laboratory Qualifications submittal required above. The inspector shall locate bonded and unbonded areas on the "Reference Blocks" in the presence of the Government's quality assurance representative.

3.5.3 Equipment

a. Search Unit.

(1) All testing of the babbitt bond shall be performed with a

2.25 MHz or 5 MHz longitudinal wave crystal.

(2) Transducer diameter shall be between 0.25 inch and 1 inch.

(3) Transducer gloves or delay lines shall be made of Lucite or other materials with similar sonic properties.

b. Couplants used for testing shall be either lightweight oil or glycerin, the viscosity of which is no more than SAE 30 oil.

c. Reference Blocks.

(1) A reference block shall consist of a soundly babbitted steel block with a scanning surface and babbitt thickness representative of the shoes being tested. The block shall be used to set the sensitivity of the instrument. A reference block with artificially unbonded areas shall be provided for comparison of indications for areas showing bond and lack of bond.

(2) Test sensitivity shall be such that the babbitt-to-base material interface is readily identified on the CRT. Details of sensitivity calibration and determination of bonded and unbonded areas shall be defined in the UT procedure.

(3) Reference blocks shall be kept available for frequent reference during actual testing.

3.5.4 Procedure

The entire babbitt surface of each shoe segment shall be scanned, overlapping scan paths by at least 20 percent of the effective transducer width. Scanning rates shall not exceed 3 inches per second. Unbonded babbitt areas will result in an increase in the size of the reflection or indications of multiple reflections at the interface of the babbitt and base metal. Babbitted areas located over anchoring dovetail grooves will be excluded from UT inspection.

All unbonded babbitted areas shall be carefully scanned to determine their size and configuration. The outside edges of all unbonded areas shall be marked on the surface of the Babbitt and recorded on inspection sheets.

3.5.5 Liquid Penetrant (PT) Testing

a. After the ultrasonic testing is completed all exposed babbitt to backing material bond lines, including dovetails if applicable, shall be examined with the liquid penetrant (PT) method. This shall be done using a solvent-removable visible dye. The purpose of the PT bond line examination is to define the babbitt to backing material bond at edges, which the UT examination may not reveal. The PT method that the Contractor proposes to use shall be submitted for approval and shall be in accordance with ASTM E 165. Lack of bond indications greater than ¾ inches in length shall be marked on the bearing shell or pads and mapped on inspection reports or documented in photos.

b. The surface area of the babbitt, including oil grooves, shall be PT examined for cracks and any and all indicated cracks recorded on inspection sheets or documented in photos.

3.5.6 Acceptance Standards

Babbitt bond acceptance criteria is defined below as a function of zones and the bearing backing material:

a. Perimeter & Holes. Zone defined as bond surface area within 1 inch from any edge or hole having an exposed bond line. The maximum dimension of any individual unbonded area shall be less than 1/2 inch, with acceptable unbonded areas located no closer than 2 inches apart.

The total unbonded area shall be no larger than 5 percent of the total zonal area.

b. Corners. Zone defined as bond surface area within 1 inch from any corner having an exposed bond line. Corners shall have no unbonded areas.

c. Dovetails. Zone defined as the entire surface area over a dovetail. Dovetails are exempt from UT examination.

d. Bond Lines. Defined as exposed lines at the babbitt to base metal interface. PT indications of lack of bond totaling over 10 percent of the length of a particular edge shall be unacceptable. Any PT detected lack of bond over 3/4 inch in length shall be re-examined by the UT method, using a 0.250 inch diameter transducer. Unbonded areas extending more than 1/8 inch away from an edge shall be unacceptable.

e. Remainder of Shell or Pad. Zone defined as bond surface area other than perimeters, holes, corners and dovetails. The maximum area for any individual unbonded area shall be less than 1 sq. inch or 3 percent of the total zonal area, whichever is less. Acceptable unbonded areas shall be located no closer than 2 inches apart. The total unbonded area shall be no larger than 5 percent of the total zonal area.

f. Additional Requirements. Acceptable babbitt surface will have no porosity larger than 1/32-inch. Porosity spacing can be no less than 1/8-inch, and must have no more than five per square inch. The exposed bond line shall have no visible disbonding.

3.5.7 NDT Inspection Report

A babbitt bond NDT inspection report shall be submitted as part of the bearing or pads final report. If the NDT is performed or witnessed by an independent laboratory, the laboratory shall provide a certified written report. The report shall include a complete description of the UT procedures used, equipment used, a mapping of the areas tested, shell/pad number, and interpretation of results. The report shall specifically address areas of lack of bond between the babbitt and the shell/pad and their accumulated total surface area relative to the area allowed for the zone. PT results shall include a mapping of the indications at the bond lines or photos. The report shall also address porosity and any cracking that is found.

3.5.8 Repairs

If repair to the babbitt surface or to the babbitt to backing material interface is needed a repair procedure shall be submitted, if not already submitted as part of the rebabbitting procedure. Puddling will be acceptable for small areas on the surface, and to correct a lack of bond between the babbitt and backing material, however, the total lack of bond repaired by puddling shall not exceed 10% of the total babbitted surface.

3.5.9 Babbitt Bond Acceptance

If a bearing's babbitt bond does not meet the above acceptance criteria it shall be repaired or completely rebabbitted and retested at the Contractor's expense until the level of defects are acceptable in accordance with these specifications.

3.6 PAINTING TURBINE GUIDE BEARING

3.6.1 General

Steel surfaces that are exposed to direct contact of oil or oil vapors shall be prepared and painted in accordance with system No. 21-A-Z. All painting shall be accomplished after babbitting, and the babbitted and finished machined surfaces shall not be exposed to abrasives or paints. Finished mating surfaces, bolting flanges, babbitted surfaces, the finished fits, threaded holes, and temperature detector holes shall not be painted. These surfaces and holes shall be thoroughly cleaned and coated with a suitable rust resistant compound.

3.6.2 System No. 21-A-Z

The epoxy zinc-rich paint shall be applied in two singles half-lapped spray coats to an average dry film thickness of a minimum of 4.0 mils, and a thickness at any point of not less than 2.5 mils or greater than 8.0 mils.

After a drying period of not less than 6 hours nor more than 96 hours, at

W9127819R0060 least two coats of epoxy polyamide paint shall be applied to produce an average dry film thickness totaling 12 mils. If the epoxy zinc-rich paint has been applied in the shop or otherwise has been permitted to cure for longer than 96 hours, it shall be abraded and recoated with an additional thin tack coat of the zinc-rich paint, which in turn shall be overcoated within 96 hours with the first coat of the epoxy polyamide paint. When applying MIL-DTL-24441, the type of thinner, amount of thinning, and required induction time shall be as recommended by the manufacturer. The drying time between non-zinc coats shall not be less than 12 hours nor more than 96 hours.

It is the responsibility of the Offeror to submit complete proposal information and documents that are fully responsive to the submission requirements of the solicitation. Offerors are responsible for organizing submitted material logically as it relates to the requirements of this solicitation and to number all pages to facilitate evaluation. Materials not organized appropriately and in the sequence of subparagraphs set out below, may easily be overlooked during evaluations, possibly affecting an Offeror’s rating.

2.0 Submission Requirements for Volume I. Submit the requested Past Performance and Technical Approach information in Volume I under the tabs indicated below and number all pages. Note: Do NOT provide any price information in Volume I.

2.1 Factor 1 – Tab A: Past Performance of the Prime Contractor. The contractor noted on the SF1449 and that signs the SF1449 is considered the Prime Contractor and Offeror. The Offeror is to provide its past performance information regarding recent and relevant efforts and the quality of those efforts to demonstrate its accomplishments and capabilities to successfully perform the effort required by this RFP. Past Performance information includes the following:

(a) Relevant Company Effort and (b) Quality of Past Performance.

Where the word "project” and/or “effort(s)" appears in the RFP, it is understood to mean the act of refurbishing one Turbine Guide Bearing including shipment of the bearing from and to Allatoona Powerhouse and the optional refurbishment of a second Turbine Guide Bearing under a single contract. Examples of projects or efforts submitted by an Offeror may be projects performed for a State or Federal Government agency or for a commercial or private sector customer. If the Offeror is submitting projects or efforts performed under a “task order type contract”, each task order shall be considered a separate project. In other words, do not combine tasks order projects and present them as one project.

Where the word “recent” appears it is understood to mean Turbine Guide Bearing refurbishment type project, the contract for which has been completed within 5 years of the RFP issue date.

“Relevant” past performance information is one indicator of an Offeror’s ability to perform the contract successfully. Where the word “relevant” appears it is understood to mean a single project that is similar in terms of scope (dollar value, size, project type, complexity) to the work described in this solicitation. The description of work is found in the Statement of Work.

2.1.1 (a) RELEVANT COMPANY EFFORT. The Offeror shall submit no more than five (5) examples of “recent” and “relevant” projects performed as a prime contractor or subcontractor to demonstrate its accomplishments on contracts similar to the effort required in this solicitation. If the Offeror submits more than five (5) projects, only the first five (5) projects shall be evaluated.

For each “recent” and “relevant” project example, the Offeror shall submit a separate and fully completed Prime Contractor Project Data Sheet (Attachment 3 at the end of this section), or at a minimum, provide the following information:

1) Company Name;

2) Name of Project;

3) Location of Project;

4) Owner (i.e. customer work was completed for);

5) Narrative Description of the General Scope of Project/Contract as it relates to this solicitation;

6) Your Role on this Contract (Prime, Subcontractor, Joint Venture Partner) and the type of effort your company self-performed;

7) Cost for this single contract;

8) Extent and type of work subcontracted out;

9) Contract Award Date (Provide Month and Year); Completion Date: (Provide

Month/Year);

10) Termination or Liquidated Damages Information; Comments regarding any known performance deemed unacceptable to the customer or not in accordance with the contract terms and conditions;

11) Name and contact information of Owner’s point of contact

(b) QUALITY OF PAST PERFORMANCE.

1) The Offeror shall submit evidence of the quality of its past performance on projects submitted in paragraph 2.1.1 (a). The Offeror shall provide a completed contractor performance evaluation, whether interim or final, found in the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) (www.ppirs.gov). If a completed contractor performance evaluation does not exist in PPIRS (i.e., a non-U.S. Government project), the Offeror shall provide a completed Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ) (Attachment 3 at the end of this section). If, at time of evaluation, a completed contractor performance evaluation exists in PPIRS that conflicts with a submitted PPQ, the completed contractor performance evaluation in PPIRS will govern.

2) Any past performance surveys/assessment/evaluation forms, other than PPIRS or the PPQ Form, are unacceptable submissions by the Offeror to evidence the quality of its past performance and will not be considered or evaluated.

3) Completed PPIRS or PPQs that were submitted in response to previous solicitations may be submitted. However, Offerors shall not incorporate either by reference, and thus must resubmit the PPIRS or PPQ with their proposal. However, this requirement does not preclude the Government, at its discretion, from utilizing previously submitted PPIRS or

PPQ information in the past performance evaluation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the burden of providing detailed, current, accurate and complete past performance information rests with the Offeror.

4) If an Offeror has been required to take corrective action for any substandard performance, experienced other performance problems such as cost overruns, extended performance periods, numerous warranty calls, etc., the Offeror should explain the circumstances and the corrective actions taken.

5) If a client will only provide completed PPQs directly to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Mobile District, then ensure the client submits the PPQ before the proposal due date using the following electronic mailing address:
