Research abstract

Parts Life, Inc. has utilized its success in the existing SBIR program and it’s proven SAR process to replicate Bracket Oil Cooler NSN 2840-01-018-2417. Using the company’s unique and revolutionary R.O.P.E.™ (Rapid Obsolescence Planning and Execution) process to create an entire technical drawing package and manufacturing drawing package, Parts Life has produced a solution to the problem that has become increasingly more critical for the availability of this NSN. All of the drawings, specifications, sources, and all inspection data have been completed in their entirety, and will be submitted for final review and approval. The DLA will have a competitive approved source for procurement of the Bracket Oil Cooler by utilizing PLI's method of manufacturing. The Materials, Equipment, Management, Measurements, Environment / Testing, and Manpower are focused on meeting and exceeding the expectations of the DoD's engineering community. For this Phase II, Parts Life, Inc. is proposing to improve product availability and increase competition through the development of a Source Approval Requests (SAR) for NSN 3040-00-298-1318 WEIGHT, COUNTERBALAN, NSN 3040-00-674-8602 WEIGHT, COUNTERBALAN, NSN 3040-00-876-5024 WEIGHT, COUNTERBALAN, NSN 3040-00-876-5027 WEIGHT, COUNTERBALAN, NSN 3040-00-064-0358 WEIGHT, COUNTERBALAN, NSN 3040-00-298-1317 WEIGHT, COUNTERBALAN, NSN 3040-00-876-5025 WEIGHT, COUNTERBALAN, NSN 4710-01-012-0575 TUBE ASSEMBLY, METAL , NSN 2840-00-568-1213 SEAL, METALLIC,AIRCR, NSN 2840-01-161-0467 SEAL,AIR,AIRCRAFT G, NSN 5330-01-236-5693 SEAL RING,METAL , NSN 5330-01-467-8900 SEAL RING,METAL, NSN 2840-00-799-7515 SEAL,AIR,AIRCRAFT G , NSN 2840-006-547-7771 RETAINER,TURBINE RE, NSN 5330-00-027-0290 RETAINER,PACKING, NSN 5310-00-286-3514 WASHER,SPRING TENSI, NSN 5310-00-800-4127 NUT, PLAIN, ROUND, NSN 5365-00-242-8935 SPACER,PLATE , NSN 2840-00-285-4459 SPACER,COMPRESSOR R, NSN 2840-00-285-4461 SPACER,COMPRESSOR R, NSN 3120-00-862-8421 BUSHING, SLEEVE, NSN 5325-00-784-2071 INSERT, SCREW THREAD with government provided technical data through Source Development and our Reverse Engineering (RE)/SAR Process. Upon contract award, Parts Life, Inc. will utilize our produced technical data for development of the SAR packages. The intent is that upon SAR approval by an ESA, Parts Life, Inc. will be responsive to future solicitations as well as participate in the development of additional SARs for technically related NSNs.The intent is that upon SAR approval by an ESA, Parts Life, Inc. will be responsive to future solicitations as well as participate in the development of additional SARs for technically related NSNs.
