Enhanced Maritime Biological Detection (EMBD) - Request for Information; Shipboard Power Pack W911SR-26-RFI-PACK
Summary
AI-generated · Aug 25, 2025Replacement for the current Shipboard Power Pack (SPP) for the Enhanced Maritime Biological Detection (EMBD) system used by the U.S. Navy. The SPP is a UPS that provides condition power and battery backup to EMBD, delivering conditioned 115 VAC and 24 VDC power with dual outputs of 250 watts (24 VDC) and 1,250 kW (AC). It supplies a high-quality, pure sinewave AC output for nonlinear loads with high crest factor, low-noise DC for sensitive electronics, low harmonic distortion, and near-unity power factor, while conditioning input power and protecting against surges, spikes, and transients.
This is a market-sounding request to assess capability, capacity, and interest in supplying a replacement SPP; attached documentation contains the full specifications. A new element in the latest notice is that questions from industry will be addressed via a dedicated attachment named Government Responses to Industry Questions, though the core requirement remains as described in the attached RFI.
The Joint Project Manager (JPM) for Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear (CBRN) Sensors, under the Joint Program Executive Office for Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear Defense (JPEO-CBRND) within the Department of Defense (DoD), is responsible for development, production and fielding of CBRN detection and identification systems. The Joint Product Director for Biological Detection Systems (JPdM-BDS) is in need of a replacement for its current Shipboard Power Pack (SPP) for the Enhanced Maritime Biological Detection (EMBD) system. The SPP is an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) that provides condition power and battery backup to the EMBD system, supporting the United States Navy. EMBD is seeking a replacement for its current Shipboard Power Pack (SPP). The SPP is an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) that provides condition power and battery backup to the EMBD system. The SPP delivers clean, conditioned 115 VAC and 24 VDC power. The dual output UPS supplies 250 watts of conditioned 24 VDC and 1,250 kW of conditioned AC output power. The outputs of the SPP provide high quality power with a pure sinewave AC output suitable for powering nonlinear loads with a high crest factor requirement and low noise DC output suitable for powering critical electronic loads. The SPP has a low harmonic distortion and near-unity power factor. The SPP conditions input power, blocking surges, spikes and transients from the input sources while maintaining reliable and stable outputs to sensitive equipment. Please see the attached full request for information for additional information and specifications of the requirement.
