PART 3 – STATEMENT OF WORK

1. Objective: Dugway Proving Ground, WDTC requires 1 ea. Bulk 3000 Gallon Nitrogen Tank System at building (bldg.) 4165, and installation.
2. Background / History : Building 4165 which is also referred to as the Renovated old Chemical Laboratory facility encompasses four laboratory rooms, two large test chamber, Test Chamber control room and Safety Air Monitoring room.  All of the laboratories and the two test chambers are equipped chemical hoods and with safety air monitoring MINICAM system.  Within four laboratory rooms are specialized test fixtures or also referred to gloveboxes.  One of the large test chambers will also house multiple glove boxes, chemical hoods and test fixture that will support Individual protection testing.  Currently building 4165 uses 80 Nitrogen bottles that are daisy chained to support the Safety MINICAMS systems for the entire building but would not handle the test fixtures/glove boxes.  We discovered that the when we connect the nitrogen lines to each of the specialty test fixture/glove boxes, they exceed the 80 bottle flow capacity.  Nitrogen air is used as the primary carrier gas for dissemination, air washing and airflow across the test items within each test fixture/glove box.  The building supplied air (O2) has a lot of impurities and causes interferences with our dissemination, air washing and airflow.  A 3000 gallon Nitrogen system will provide sufficient purified (99.999%) nitrogen gas to service all the MINICAMS and test fixture.  The expected nitrogen flow rate would be approximately 100 – 150 L of Nitrogen gas per minute during test trials.  The Bulk Nitrogen system will connect using 1” stainless steel line. 
3. The Contractor shall install the 1 each, bulk 3000 Gallon Nitrogen Tank to include 1 ea. Evaporator, various stainless steel lines, and cryogenic systems for both Vapor and liquid nitrogen.  Installation shall include installing the necessary hardware, bolts and materials necessary to secure bulk tank and evaporator.  The Contractor shall tie various vapor lines to existing building Stainless Steel lines ensuring all fitting are compatible to existing system 1” lines.

Material List but not limited to the following:

1. 1 each FOB Destination for delivery of Nitrogen tank system
2. 1 each  FNL VS-3000SC-250CS-DSS  3000 Gallon Nitrogen Tank
3. 1 each VAPAMB AL 11700SCFH/600PSI SG110HF Evaporator
4. 1 each Cryogenic Parts and Stainless steel parts
5. 1 each Labor to install entire system to include cool down and check out with the use of Liquid Nitrogen 99.999% purity with one-time fill. 
6. Optional line item to include 16,000 gallons of Liquid Nitrogen to include delivery.

The following is an amendment for W911S6-21-Q-0020 Amendment One.

Summary of Changes are as follows:

1.  Posted Table for Site Visit Roster with Questions and Answers (See page 74, and 75 of Amendment Combined Synopsis/Solicitation. 

2. Updated Statement of Work (page 3), and Pricing Table (page 1) with new Tank Part Number, add langauge for labels, concrete pad specifications, and shipping (page 3, 4, 5, Section 3.3 l,m,n,o,p), added 3.4 d).

3.  Removed FAR 8.405 Ordering Procedures langauge.  (pg 11)  and added corrected Evaluation and Basis for Award (PART 9)
