About this file

This is a Statement of Work describing requirements for a small unmanned aerial system (sUAS) procurement by Headquarters Pacific Air Forces Command Surgeon General's Office. The sUAS will be used to demonstrate proof of concept and conduct exercise testing for drone delivery of mission-essential Class VIIIA & B medical supplies and blood products to austere locations in the Indo-Pacific Area of Responsibility where traditional delivery methods are physically impossible or insufficient to meet expediency requirements. If successful, the equipment may be purchased by other PACAF units to close gaps for urgent, life-saving medical logistics.

The required sUAS must be autonomous/programmable capable of vertical take-off and landing, carry a payload up to 65 kg with dimensions not exceeding 82 cm x 60 cm x 51 cm, and operate on a removable battery with a range of up to 30 km per charge. The vendor must provide extra batteries (sufficient for one complete swap-out) and chargers, a standard spare parts kit, all control/programming software and any non-standard hardware required, and training for either two personnel at the vendor facility or for a vendor training team to travel to Hickam to train six personnel on drone operation and maintenance. The system must comply with Department of Defense sUAS acquisition requirements under FY 2022 NDAA (Section 848) and FY 2024 NDAA (Sections 1821-1825). Delivery is required within six months of contract date, with detailed user manuals, maintenance guides, and inventory lists for all components. Maintenance responsibilities include battery charging, replacing parts from the supplied spare kit, and performing routine maintenance as outlined in vendor-provided training.
