The procurement includes services for US Navy certification, requiring the contractor to submit information for the Li Battery Safety Certification Program Safety Data Package (SDP). The contractor must also provide a recharging system compatible with either 60 Hz, single-phase 115 Vac or 60 Hz, three-phase 450 Vac Delta power for use on an ocean research vessel. Optional CLINs cover services and materials for battery modifications necessary for certification, contingent on government approval of a contractor-submitted quote detailing labor and materials.
    Attachment 2 SDP Sample Information.pdf
    The Lithium Battery Safety Certification Program (LBSP) outlines the comprehensive safety data required for lithium batteries in government applications, encompassing federal, state, and local RFPs and grants. The document details essential information for battery component cells and packs, including design data, electrical specifications, safety devices, and failure modes. It specifies additional requirements for secondary, thermal, and reserve batteries. Furthermore, the LBSP mandates detailed descriptions of lithium battery-powered systems, covering manufacturer information, installation, housing, electrical schematics, chargers, and other safety controls like Battery Management Systems. The program also requires extensive documentation on the concept of operations and logistics, including packaging, transportation, storage, and disposal, especially for Naval ship and submarine deployment. Maintenance, operating, and casualty procedures, including unique firefighting protocols, are critical. Finally, the LBSP emphasizes providing functional, environmental, and safety test data, a proposed safety testing program plan, and results from a System Safety Program, including hazard analyses, to ensure rigorous safety and compliance.
