About this opportunity
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) seeks replacement of two stretch mooring hoses with flange adapters for its Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory, with proposals due June 12. This is a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) set-aside solicitation issued as a notice of intent to sole source.
Place of performance and delivery are to the Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory in Ann Arbor, Michigan, with delivery required 84 days after award. The procurement requires two 50-foot (15-meter) Ethernet-capable stretch hoses, each with 1500 kg working load and flanges, plus one composite shipping container. The mooring system must integrate directly with preexisting infrastructure and feature elastomer-synthetic composite technology with eight 22 AWG conductors and four 24 AWG twisted pairs built into reinforced rubber construction capable of stretching to 1.5 times its original length. All mooring connections are bolted flanges to minimize mechanical noise and enable modular design. The NAICS code is 335999, All Other Miscellaneous Electrical Equipment and Component Manufacturing, with a small business size standard of 600 employees. Payment will be made by the OAR Field Delegates office in Kansas City, Missouri. The solicitation incorporates FAR clauses 52.212-4 and 52.212-5 and requires compliance with sexual assault and sexual harassment prevention training, electronic payment submission through the Invoice Processing Platform, and System for Award Management maintenance. Offerors must complete blocks 12, 17, 23, 24, and 30 on the Standard Form 1449.
Notice text
Replacing 2 stretch hoses with 2 flange adapters each to maintain the capabilities of our moored data buoys. This mooring must integrate directly with the pre-exsisting system. This is a bungee-like cord with electrical wires coiled inside designed to moor meterological buoys and allow information and power to be transferred from the top of the buoy to instruments down below. The reinforced rubber stretch hose was developed for mooring systems that require a stable platform for sensors or acoustics. It can stretch to 1.5 times its original length and serves as a highly effective and robust mechanical isolator between the surface buoy and the quiet lower mooring section. The hose construction makes use of elastomer-synthetic composite technology for elasticity and strength and also has eight number 22AWG conductors and 4 24AWG twisted pairs built into it to allow signals and power to be transmitted along its length. All mooring connections are bolted flanges to minimize other sources of mechanical noise and to enable a modular approach to mooring design.
