Amendment 3Section C – Statement of Work

C-2 Statement of Work APC System Introduction The mission of the FAA’s Voice Switch & Recorder (VS&R) Program Office’s VoICE over IP Communication Enterprise (VoICE) program is to provide a flexible, network-based voice communication enterprise system that will replace aging, increasingly expensive to maintain legacy voice switches. The VoICE program will also address Radio Control Equipment (RCE) obsolescence and End-of-Life (EOL) issues.

The VoICE program will replace voice switching core infrastructure at select Air Traffic Control Towers (ATCTs), Terminal Radar Approach Control Facilities (TRACONs), Center Radar Approach Control Facility (CERAPs), and Air Route Traffic Control Centers (ARTCCs) with a modern and supportable Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) enabled networked voice communication system.

This Statement of Work (SOW) describes the work required for the design, development, test, and deployment of the APC System.

Statements contained in “Notes” do not constitute legally binding requirements but rather are explanatory in nature and are included only to provide context to the associated Statement of Work and Attachment J.1 and J.2 requirements in the applicable sections.

Scope of Work The scope of work includes all services and supplies required for the successful design, development, test, and deployment of the APCs, including program management, systems engineering, test and evaluation, delivery, installation, integrated logistics support (including training), and operational support.

The APC System Contractor must perform in accordance with (IAW) the requirements of this Statement of Work (SOW) and in conjunction with all other terms contained within the other sections of this contract.
