Description
The Naval Surface Warfare Center, Crane Division (NSWC-CR), is seeking proposals for the production, acceptance, and delivery of the Timed Firing Device (TFD). The TFD system includes the TFD kit (MR27), the TFD blasting demo accessory kit (MR28), and the RSI-1586-01 Plastic Encapsulated Detonator or Low Energy Exploding Foil Initiator (LEEFI) (MR29). The Government anticipates awarding a Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP), five-year, Indefinite-Delivery Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) supply contract. The estimated value of this procurement is approximately $31,000,000. The TFD is a compact, lightweight, precision electronic device engineered for the initiation of a broad spectrum of explosives. It can be rapidly adapted to a wide variety of standard and improvised demolition charge configurations using the provided adapters. Additionally, the TFD provides versatile activation timing through pre-set fixed delays of 30 seconds, 3 minutes, and 10 minutes, selectable via a rotary switch. For extended or custom-timed missions, the TFD can be programmed with delays of up to 24 hours using a PC or Android application, ensuring functionality even in communications-denied environments. The system is compatible with both single-use LEEFI and a reusable Shock Tube Initiator Chip, and it features a dedicated training mode with audio-visual feedback. Its robust, waterproof construction allows for full underwater capability. All units procured under this contract shall be manufactured in strict accordance with the following DRAFT documents: Statement of Work (SOW), Performance Specification, Drawings, Automated Data List (ADL), and Contract Data Requirements List (CDRL). The award will be made to the responsible offeror whose proposal represents the best value to the Government, considering technical approach, past performance, and price. A Production Readiness Review (PRR) is expected to be solicited as a separate Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) under the initial delivery order and must be completed within 135 days of contract award. First Article units are to be delivered within six months of the effective date of the delivery order. Production units are to be delivered within 180 days following the successful completion of FAT and Acceptance. Both FAT and Lot Acceptance Testing (LAT) are mandatory for this procurement. A total of 32 TFD kits, 1 TFD Accessory Kit, and 32 LEEFI Detonators will be required for FAT within 180 days of contract award. First Article units will not be considered part of the production quantity. The contractor will be responsible for conducting both FAT and LAT. This procurement is FOB destination, with inspection and acceptance to be performed at the origin.
