SL Noise Reduction - Market Intelligence Request

The Air Force’s Arnold Engineering Development Center (AEDC) seeks a contractor to conduct a comprehensive noise‑assessment study of buildings and surrounding outdoor areas at Arnold AFB, both indoors and outdoors, and to develop and recommend viable mitigation solutions that meet all applicable safety and health standards. The effort must produce a performance‑based Statement of Work and a full suite of deliverables, including a business‑process review, project‑management plan, cost‑schedule‑performance tracking, subcontracting and staffing plans, a resource‑loaded WBS and integrated master schedule, and a risk‑management plan. Core technical deliverables are a detailed sampling‑strategy map with location justification, measurement protocols (timing, duration, tolerances), validation methods, calibration procedures, measurement‑uncertainty analysis, noise‑source identification/classification, modeling methods, and a final report containing raw and processed data, analysis, feasibility (technical, economic, operational) assessments, cost estimates, impact on operations, installation timelines, and recommended solutions with implementation plans. Additional requirements include on‑site training, a quality‑control plan, proof‑of‑concept/ conceptual design documentation, equipment specifications, regulatory‑compliance evidence, and unlimited data rights to the Government. The contract also mandates compliance with 10 U.S.C. 4022(d)(1)(A)–(C) by describing the “Appropriate Use of Authority” approach (e.g., inclusion of a non‑traditional defense contractor, small‑business participation, or third‑party funding). Unique elements include a mandatory calibration record package, software code delivery (if applicable), a detailed duct‑modification mitigation strategy, and explicit government visibility into schedule, performance, and risks throughout the effort.
