The United States Department of Defense (DOD) Program Manger Mobile Electric Power (PM-MEP) is seeking sources capable of providing the Program Management Office (PMO) with a Performance Based Logistics (PBL) feasibility Business Case Analysis (BCA) and support recommendation for system level support of the 60K BTU Improved Environmental Control Unit (IECU). The BCA will identify relative cost vs. benefits of alternative support strategies, the impact and value of Performance/Cost/Schedule/Sustainmen t trade-offs, and data required to support and justify the identified strategy, including recommended performance measurement metrics. The objective is to present a well documented analysis incorporating currently fielded like-system historical data, detai ling considered support alternatives, the methodology used to derive the best value support solution, and other relevant details specific to the process. The 60K BTU IECU is a compact, rugged unit weighing approximately 500lbs. It is designed for the tactical military environment and will be able to provide supplemental heating capability. It will operate in a wide range of temperature extremes. The IECU wi ll provide dehumidified and cooled air to sensitive electronic equipment without adversely disrupting electrical power. The unit requires unique refrigeration circuits and controls to allow low-ambient cooling operation. The unit also requires protective c ircuits to prevent damage during periods of extreme conditions and to prevent damage in case of faulty conditions. The unit utilizes non-ozone depleting refrigerant. Technical questions concerning this announcement may be submitted via email to MAJ Daniels at [email protected] or Ms. Kimberly Hall at [email protected] and no telephone inquires will be honored. All responsible sources capable of providing such a service are requested to submit a capabilities statement.
