3kW Generators- Amendment 0002   3

This Solicitation has been amended. The Technical Data Package has been updated. No change to the Proposal due date and time.

Description of the Item(s)/Service(s) being Procured:

The U.S. Army's Program Manager Expeditionary Energy & Sustainment Systems(PM E2S2) has a requirement for production of 3kW Tactical Quiet Generators (TQGs, Model MEP 831A(60 Hz), NSN 6115-01-285-3012) which conform to an established Statement of Work (SOW), Purchase Description, and Technical Data Package. These TQGs will provide the form, fit and function of the existing/legacy TQG sets and will be used as stand-alone power sources or used as Major Component Items and Associated Support Items of Equipment to power other DoD systems.

The primary objective and scope of the contemplated IDIQ contract is to procure up to 750ea of the 3kW TQGs, on a Firm Fixed Price basis, through the use of a Government-owned TDP.

Additionally, the contract will also allow the Government to order to 1,000 Power Distribution Units (PDUs) on a Firm Fixed Price basis. The PDU is an ancillary item and is, essentially, a ruggedized 20 amp extension cord which the Government considers to be a commercial item. The PDU does not have any required design, the requirements for this PDU are contained in the PDU product description at Attachment 0003. Just for illustrative purposes, the 3kW Power Distribution Reel, also sometimes called a Cable Reel Assembly, manufactured by Genesis JIT as Part Number: GEN-2014101TN is an example of the type of item that may satisfy the PDU requirements. However, the Government is not directing any specific PDU design or manufacturer, other than those baseline requirements listed in the PDU Purchase Description.

Finally, this contract provides for potential future design changes and improvements to the 3kW TQG generator sets necessary to improve reliability and operation or to avoid obsolesce. During contract performance, the Government anticipates approving the design and components of a retrofit kit/improvement kit for the generator, which, for example, could include such items as an improved inverter, improved cables, improved fuel cap, etc. The Government may order (at prices to-be negotiated after award when the kit is finalized) this retrofit kit/improvement kit for all generators previously purchased under this contract, including those purchased both before and after the kit is approved.
