STATEMENT OF WORK

AVS SAFETY, ANALYTICAL AND TECHNICAL SUPPORT SERVICES

C.1.0 INTRODUCTION

The Associate Administrator for Aviation Safety (AVS) oversees the safety of the world’s largest, most complex aviation system – an aviation system that affects millions who fly for business and pleasure. AVS does this through investments and programs to promote continued operational safety (surveillance, oversight, education, inspections), establish safety rules and regulations (rulemaking), and certify the aviation competency of people (pilots) and organizations (individual airlines) and the airworthiness of aircraft and equipment.

C.2.0 SCOPE

This effort provides administrative, analytical and technical subject matter expert services required to support safety-related programs for the FAA that fall within Associate Administrator for Aviation Safety (AVS) oversight as well as AVS investment teams in preparation for Acquisition Management System (AMS) investment decisions for safety programs. Activities required to support FAA safety goals, strategies, interventions, investments, and the safety-related aspects of capacity and efficiency programs included at a minimum as follows:

• Safety and Capacity Improvements;

• New Flight Technology and System Engineering;

• Business Processes;

• Program Management;

• Program Analysis;

• Information and Data Analysis;

• AVS portfolio of investment from strategic planning to in-service management;

• The Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) Integration efforts to safely integrate UAS into the National Airspace System;

• Operational Concepts – in both technological and operational domains;

• Standards and Criteria for Communication, Navigation, and Surveillance (CNS);

• Instrument Flight Procedures;

• All Weather Operations

• Aviation Safety Inspector Support;

• Aviation Weather Initiatives;

• Data and Aeronautical Communications;

• Systems and processes to enhance operational safety;

• NAS plan, research and development plan;

• Improvements to flight simulation capabilities for purposes of research;

• Automated Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) and Multilateration related technology development, certification, and deployment support;

• Introduction of new aircraft, air traffic enhancements, and separation assurance;

• Systems to forecast the impacts of National Air Space (NAS) trends on safety performance;

• Enhancements to aviation safety analysis, monitoring methodologies, and tools;

• Coordination of regulatory and guidance material updates;

• AVS transitioning itself and the industry it oversees to a Safety Management System

(SMS) business model in accordance with FAA and International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) requirements;

• Development of a common safety framework across the government agencies;

• Provide aviation safety expertise to perform work environment assessments and objectivity studies at FAA Certificate Management Offices and other FAA facilities and work environments as designated and scheduled by the FAA.

C.3.0 OBJECTIVES

This effort sets forth the requirements for services to accomplish the strategic planning, development, acquisition, implementation and life cycle activities necessary to achieve the goals and objectives identified with FAA strategic initiatives. This contract also provides the necessary program/project management, aviation, technical, analytical and operations research subject matter expert support to meet AVS goals and objectives and other FAA LOBs, as required.

C.4.0 CONTRACTOR RESPONSIBILITIES

The Contractor must furnish all personnel, management and technical supervision, and other items and services necessary to successfully perform the tasks that are defined in the following sections of this SOW. The support services specified are mission critical and time sensitive. The recurring tasks specified in this SOW will be ordered by “task orders” signed and issued by the Contracting Officer (CO), with well-defined deliverables and acceptance criteria for each deliverable, due dates and milestone dates. During the performance of this contract, support tasks will be added that are required and that are within the basic scope of this SOW. These tasks, when identified by the Government, must be funded on a case-by-case basis.

The contractor must fill any vacancies within a minimum of 5 calendar days and a maximum of 60 calendar days after receipt of the Contracting Officer’s Representative’s (COR) request to backfill. When new "task order(s)" are officially authorized in writing by the CO, the contractor must have a minimum of 5 calendar days and a maximum of 60 calendar days to provide qualified support personnel for the desired task. The range of 5 – 60 calendar days for filling vacancies includes processing security checks through the FAA Servicing Security Element. The FAA reserves the right to request a shorter turn around time to fill vacancies in certain situations.

The Contractor may also be required to interface with other subject matter expert contractors, industry representatives, equipment manufacturers, airport personnel, aircraft pilots, and various U.S. Government and international organizations.

The contract effort is to be performed using facilities and materials provided by the Government. Services will be performed at the Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center (MMAC), Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, FAA facilities in Washington, D.C., and other facilities designated by the FAA.
