The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Research and Development Center (ERDC), Geotechnical and Structures Laboratory (GSL) intends to issue a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) sole source award to Kulite Semiconductor Products, Inc. (CAGE: 34345 / UEI: LN9YKAX66918) for one Kulite Brand pressure gauge.
In the area of force protection and weapons effects, the GSL develops innovative solutions for the Army, Department of Defense, Department of Homeland Security, other government agencies, and deployed troops to provide force protection from foxholes to fixed facilities, against weapon threats ranging from small arms to terrorist weapons through advanced conventional weapons with multispectral sensors. As part of the force protection research efforts, the GSL conducts field experiments using explosives to simulate threats against the GSL-developed protective technologies. Pressure gauges are used to measure pressures in high shock environments to better understand blast propagation and structural loading during explosive events.
To maintain the GSL-s capabilities to accurately measure pressure and shock wave propagation from explosive events, new gauges must be purchased to replenish and expand current inventory. Specialized gauges manufactured by Kulite Semiconductor Products, Inc. must remain consistent with previous gauges to ensure repeatable data is collected during test events. The testing environment in which these pressure gauges are used is very dynamic. Kulite brand gauges have been used in all previous blast experiments. It is essential that the results of blast experiments be evaluated based on the same, consistent standards. Because of this, it is vital that Kulite brand gauges that are compatible with existing Kulite brand equipment be used moving forward to ensure accurate blast measurements. As a result, Kulite Semiconductor Products, Inc. is the only known vendor who can provide the required pressure gauge.
The award will be issued in accordance with FAR 13.5...
