- Description
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Research and Development Center (ERDC), Geotechnical and Structures Laboratory (GSL) intends to issue a sole source award to Germann Instruments (CAGE Code: 3W4K4) to procure (1) MIRA 6000 in the areas of Airfields and Pavement (APB) research for use in the evaluation of rural airfield pavements. Standard airfield pavement evaluations require the determination of in-situ pavement structural profile, layer thickness, and pavement structural capacity. The structural capacity of airfield pavements is routinely determined using falling weight deflectometers regardless of the pavement type. However, the determination of pavement layer thicknesses is more complex, and the type of NDT equipment depends on the surface of the pavement structure.
For years, the APB airfield inspection team has required the use of ultrasound tomographer technology, which has proven effective for concrete pavement structures. This ultrasound tomographer device determines the thickness of concrete layers through the analysis of wave propagations transmitted by the device when seated on the surface of the concrete pavement. Therefore, the testing mechanism of the ultrasound tomographer is nondestructive and effective for field evaluation of airfield concrete pavements.
Thus, MIRA 6000 must be procured. The unique characteristics detailed are critical to the continuation of the GSL-s mission and continued research in the Airfields and Pavement Branch. Since alternative methods of field-testing technique will not be deemed acceptable, it is determined that Germann Instruments Inc. is the only vendor that can provide the MIRA 6000 that can meet the government-s exact specifications.
Therefore, the Government intends to award a Firm-Fixed price contract to Germann Instruments Inc. in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i). Germann Instruments is not a small business concern under the applicable NAICS code 334519 (Other Measuring and Con... - Documents:
