An ACAN is a public notice indicating to the supplier community that a department or agency intends to award a contract for goods, services or construction to a pre-identified supplier, thereby allowing other suppliers to signal their interest in bidding, by submitting a statement of capabilities. If no supplier submits a statement of capabilities that meets the requirements set out in the ACAN, on or before the closing date stated in the ACAN, the contracting officer may then proceed with the award.
The National Research Council Canada has a requirement for the supply of a WORKHEAD SPINDLE SYSTEM including two (2) hours of training in English for three (3) people to be delivered to Montreal, Quebec by 29 March 2013. The purpose of this Advance Contract Award Notice (ACAN) is to signal the government's intention to award a contract for these goods to WAINBEE LIMITED, 215 Brunswick Blvd., Pointe Claire, Quebec, H9R 4R7. Before awarding a contract, however, the government would like to provide other suppliers with the opportunity to demonstrate that they are capable of satisfying the requirements set out in this Notice, by submitting a statement of capabilities during the 15 calendar day posting period.
If other potential suppliers submit a statement of capabilities during the 15 calendar day posting period that meet the requirements set out in the ACAN, the government will proceed to a full tendering process on either the government's electronic tendering service or through traditional means, in order to award the contract.
If no other supplier submits, on or before the closing date, a statement of capabilities meeting the requirements set out in the ACAN, a contract will be awarded to the pre-selected supplier.
Minimum Essential Requirements
Any interested supplier must demonstrate by way of a statement of capabilities that its WORKHEAD SPINDLE SYSTEM meets the following requirements:
1. EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION
1.1 The system must include (a) the spindle assembly, which contain a spindle, a gear-box, an 8" direct mount self-centering 3-jaw chuck with reversible jaws and an invert duty motor, (b) the motor drive, and (c) the connecting cables.
1.2 The overall dimensions of the spindle assembly must satisfy the requirements detailed in Section 2 for the installation on the table of the Makino A88e machining center.
1.3 The spindle assembly must be suitable for working in an environment with straight oil and water-based grinding fluid splashing around.
1.4 Oil/water-proof electrical connectors must be provided for connecting the electrical drive and motor.
2. DETAILED SPECIFICATIONS THAT MUST BE SATISFIED
2.1 Controlling Dimensions and Load Capacity
2.1.1 The spindle height from the spindle mounting base must be between 4" to 6".
2.1.2 The dimension from the very top of the spindle assembly to the spindle center must not exceed 32".
2.1.3 The overall dimension of the spindle assembly measured normal to the spindle and parallel to the mounting plane must not exceed 12".
2.1.4 The overall dimension of the assembly along the spindle axis measured from the very back end of the assembly to the spindle front end must not exceed 23.5".
2.1.5 The spindle front end must be provided with an interface matching the 8" 3-jaw chuck (type A1).
2.1.6 The maximum spindle thrust load must be at least 1,350 lbs.
2.1.7 The spindle radial stiffness must be at least 1,160,000 lbs/in.
2.2 Spindle Parameters
2.2.1 The spindle operating speed must cover a minimum rotational speed range of 10 - 500 rpm.
2.2.2 The spindle must have a constant torque output of at least 55 N.m from 10 up to 255 rpm, and a constant power output of at least 2 hp from 255 - 500 rpm.
2.2.3 The ID of the front end bearing must be at least 85 mm, and must be at least 70 mm for the back end bearing.
2.2.4 The bearings must be sealed and lubricated using methods suitable for the working environment stated in section 1 and the requirements from the spindle itself.
2.3 Electrical Drive and Control Specifications
2.3.1 The electrical power source for the drive and control must be 230 VAC/60 Hz, three phases or single phase.
2.3.2 Buttons and adjusting switches must be provided for setting spindle speed, forward rotation, backward rotation, and stop.
2.3.3 The drive/control must include a light indicating the running of the spindle.
2.3.4 The drive/control must include the display of spindle rpm and the drive operating frequency.
2.3.5 The length of the cables from the drive output to the motor must be at least 24'.
2.3.6 The length of the power supply cable to the drive must be at least 12'.
3. MISCELLANEOUS
3.1 The spindle assembly drawing and the spindle torque curve are required in the bid.
Justification for the Pre-Selected Supplier
The National Research Council Canada Aerospace has investigated various spindles on the market. It was concluded that no standard spindle system could satisfy the requirement. The SKF/Gilman spindle system proposed by Wainbee Limited is the only known spindle system known to satisfy the requirement. Section 6(d), Part 1 of the Government Contracts Regulations (GCRs), PWGSC Supply Manual Chapter 4, 4.75.45.5 and NAFTA Article 1011 are applicable as only one manufacturer/supplier is capable of supplying the requirement.
Ownership of any Foreground Intellectual Property arising out of the proposed contract will vest in the Contractor.
Suppliers who consider themselves fully qualified and available to meet the specified requirements may submit a statement of capabilities in writing to the Contracting Authority identified in this Notice on or before the closing date of this Notice. The statement of capabilities must clearly demonstrate how the supplier meets the advertised requirements.
The closing date and time for accepting statements of capabilities is 20 December 2012, 2:00 p.m. EST.
