Initial Or Further Development Or Modification Of These Interfaces May Be Required To Achieve Desired Performance Behaviors And Characteristics. Tem Controls Are Expected To Develop Within A Model-based System Engineering And Digital Engineering Environment And Will Be Initially Evaluated In A Purely Computational Environment, Representing Navy-developed Shipboard-representative Power And Energy System Architecture(s), But Will Be Progressively Evaluated On Systems With Increasing Levels Of Physical Instantiation (i.e., Controller-hardware-in-loop And Power-hardware-in-loop With Progressive Levels Of Representative Power System Components Physically Instantiated). When Implementing A Tem Based Control Scheme, The Overall Power System Should Increase Installed Power Generation Available To Mission And Auxiliary Loads; Reduce Power System Design Margins; Hone The Installed Stored Energy Required For Mission Critical Capability; And Allow Higher Power Transients (ramp Rates And Step Loads).

The Ability To Support Advanced Electrical Payload Warfighting Technologies Requires Not Only Power And Energy Systems Delivered With The Flexibility And Adaptability To Accommodate Them, But A Npes Engineering Enterprise With The Capability And Capacity (knowledge, Labor, And Capital) For Continuous Systems Integration. The Navy Can More Affordably Meet This Challenge By Shifting As Much Effort As Possible Into The Computational Modeling And Simulation Regime. an Integrated Power System (ips) Provides Total Ship Electric Power Including Electric Propulsion, Power Conversion And Distribution, Energy Storage, Combat System Support And Ship Mission Load Interfaces To The Electric Power System.

For Ship Service Electrical Loads, The Architecture Includes Zonal Electrical Distribution Which May Be Either Ac Or Dc, Depending Upon The Specific Application. In Addition To A Full Ipes Or Ips Implementation, Hybrid Electric Drive (hed) Where Mechanical Propulsion Is Augmented By Rotating Electric Machinery, Or Additional Power Generation Or Energy Storage May Be Of Interest. The Navy Desires To Understand The Performance And Cost Trade Space That Is Available For The Various Options Of Architecture; Component, System And Controls Technologies; Functional Allocations; And Interfaces. Also Of Interest Are Technologies That Result In Significant Energy Efficiency, Thermal Improvements, Power Density Improvements And/or Carbon Footprint Improvements Over Existing Propulsion And Power System Technologies. Another Area Of Interest For The Navy Is The Interface Definition Between Unique Electrical Loads And The Power System, And The Provision Of Specialty Power To Optimize That Load Interface. Among The Special Load Interfaces That Might Require Development Are Support For Pulsed Power Weapons And Sensors Such As Radar Power Supplies, Electromagnetic Launchers (for Example Electromagnetic Railgun), And Advanced Laser Systems, All Of Which Would Benefit From Optimized Integration With The Shipboard Power System. the Approach To Prototype Hardware Developed Under This Baa Is That It Fosters Modularity And Scalability (so That Families Of Products May Be Leveraged To Multiple Potential Applications) And Shall Accommodate An Open System Architecture Where Interfaces Are Well Defined And Mutually Accepted. The Navy Is Interested In Both Near Term Solutions That Have The Potential For Rapid Transition To A High Technology Readiness Level (trl) As Well As Longer Term Technology Pushes That Advance The Science And Would Enable A Future Compact Shipboard System. Risk Reducing Technology Prototype Demonstrations In The Near Term Are Encouraged. An Evaluation Of Emerging Technologies For Ship Applications (such As Energy Storage, Support For High Energy Weapons, Support For High Power Radars, High-speed Generators, And Advanced Power Electronics) To Determine Future Feasibility And Development Requirements Is Also Of Great Interest. Development Of Advanced Design Tools And Power System Specifications And Standards Is Also Key To Ensuring New Power Systems Will Integrate Aboard Ship. The Navy Is Interested In A Model-based Approach To Power System Engineering, From Early Concept System Architecture Trade Studies And Trade-space Exploration, To Production-ready Performance Specifications For Component And Systems Acquisitions. Particular Technologies And System Concepts Will Need To Be Evaluated In A Common Set Of Modeling Contexts And Environments Standardized Across The Navy Power System Engineering Enterprise. Modeling-enabled Evaluation Of Technology Alternatives And Performance Of System-level Trade Studies Requires That Models Be Delivered With A Sufficient Pedigree Supported By Analysis, Verification, And Validation (e.g., By Subscale Hardware Demonstrations) To Prove The Applicability Of The Models For The Standardized Modeling Contexts And Environments (model Based System Engineering). 5.

Section Vi. Specifications Notes On Specifications A Set Of Precise And Clear Specifications Is A Prerequisite For Bidders To Respond Realistically And Competitively To The Requirements Of The Procuring Entity Without Qualifying Or Conditioning Their Bids.

There Is No Standard Set Of Specifications For Universal Application In All Sectors In All Regions, But There Are Established Principles And Practices, Which Are Reflected In These Pbds. There Are Considerable Advantages In Standardizing General Specifications For Repetitive Works In Recognized Public Sectors, Such As Highways, Ports, Railways, Urban Housing, Irrigation, And Water Supply, In The Same Country Or Region Where Similar Conditions Prevail. The General Specifications Should Cover All Classes Of Workmanship, Materials, And Equipment Commonly Involved In Construction, Although Not Necessarily To Be Used In A Particular Works Contract. Deletions Or Addenda Should Then Adapt The General Specifications To The Particular Works. Care Must Be Taken In Drafting Specifications To Ensure That They Are Not Restrictive. In The Specification Of Standards For Goods, Materials, And Workmanship, Recognized International Standards Should Be Used As Much As Possible. Where Other Particular Standards Are Used, Whether National Standards Or Other Standards, The Specifications Should State That Goods, Materials, And Workmanship That Meet Other Authoritative Standards, And Which Ensure Substantially Equal Or Higher Quality Than The Standards Mentioned, Will Also Be Acceptable. The Following Clause May Be Inserted In The Scc. Sample Clause: Equivalency Of Standards And Codes Wherever Reference Is Made In The Contract To Specific Standards And Codes To Be Met By The Goods And Materials To Be Furnished, And Work Performed Or Tested, The Provisions Of The Latest Current Edition Or Revision Of The Relevant Standards And Codes In Effect Shall Apply, Unless Otherwise Expressly Stated In The Contract. Where Such Standards And Codes Are National, Or Relate To A Particular Country Or Region, Other Authoritative Standards That Ensure A Substantially Equal Or Higher Quality Than The Standards And Codes Specified Will Be Accepted Subject To The Procuring Entity’s Representative’s Prior Review And Written Consent. Differences Between The Standards Specified And The Proposed Alternative Standards Shall Be Fully Described In Writing By The Contractor And Submitted To The Procuring Entity’s Representative At Least Twenty-eight (28) Days Prior To The Date When The Contractor Desires The Procuring Entity’s Representative’s Consent. In The Event The Procuring Entity’s Representative Determines That Such Proposed Deviations Do Not Ensure Substantially Equal Or Higher Quality, The Contractor Shall Comply With The Standards Specified In The Documents. These Notes Are Intended Only As Information For The Procuring Entity Or The Person Drafting The Bidding Documents. They Should Not Be Included In The Final Bidding Documents.

Bill Of Quantities Notes On The Bill Of Quantities Objectives The Objectives Of The Bill Of Quantities Are: A. To Provide Sufficient Information On The Quantities Of Works To Be Performed To Enable Bids To Be Prepared Efficiently And Accurately; And B. When A Contract Has Been Entered Into, To Provide A Priced Bill Of Quantities For Use In The Periodic Valuation Of Works Executed. In Order To Attain These Objectives, Works Should Be Itemized In The Bill Of Quantities In Sufficient Detail To Distinguish Between The Different Classes Of Works, Or Between Works Of The Same Nature Carried Out In Different Locations Or In Other Circumstances Which May Give Rise To Different Considerations Of Cost. Consistent With These Requirements, The Layout And Content Of The Bill Of Quantities Should Be As Simple And Brief As Possible. Daywork Schedule A Daywork Schedule Should Be Included Only If The Probability Of Unforeseen Work, Outside The Items Included In The Bill Of Quantities, Is High. To Facilitate Checking By The Entity Of The Realism Of Rates Quoted By The Bidders, The Daywork Schedule Should Normally Comprise The Following: A. A List Of The Various Classes Of Labor, Materials, And Constructional Plant For Which Basic Daywork Rates Or Prices Are To Be Inserted By The Bidder, Together With A Statement Of The Conditions Under Which The Contractor Will Be Paid For Work Executed On A Daywork Basis. B. Nominal Quantities For Each Item Of Daywork, To Be Priced By Each Bidder At Daywork Rates As Bid. The Rate To Be Entered By The Bidder Against Each Basic Daywork Item Should Include The Contractor’s Profit, Overheads, Supervision, And Other Charges. Provisional Sums A General Provision For Physical Contingencies (quantity Overruns) May Be Made By Including A Provisional Sum In The Summary Bill Of Quantities. Similarly, A Contingency Allowance For Possible Price Increases Should Be Provided As A Provisional Sum In The Summary Bill Of Quantities. The Inclusion Of Such Provisional Sums Often Facilitates Budgetary Approval By Avoiding The Need To Request Periodic Supplementary Approvals As The Future Need Arises. Where Such Provisional Sums Or Contingency Allowances Are Used, The Scc Should State The Manner In Which They Will Be Used, And Under Whose Authority (usually The Procuring Entity’s Representative’s). The Estimated Cost Of Specialized Work To Be Carried Out, Or Of Special Goods To Be Supplied, By Other Contractors Should Be Indicated In The Relevant Part Of The Bill Of Quantities As A Particular Provisional Sum With An Appropriate Brief Description. A Separate Procurement Procedure Is Normally Carried Out By The Procuring Entity To Select Such Specialized Contractors. To Provide An Element Of Competition Among The Bidders In Respect Of Any Facilities, Amenities, Attendance, Etc., To Be Provided By The Successful Bidder As Prime Contractor For The Use And Convenience Of The Specialist Contractors, Each Related Provisional Sum Should Be Followed By An Item In The Bill Of Quantities Inviting The Bidder To Quote A Sum For Such Amenities, Facilities, Attendance, Etc. Signature Box A Signature Box Shall Be Added At The Bottom Of Each Page Of The Bill Of Quantities Where The Authorized Representative Of The Bidder Shall Affix His Signature.
