1. INTRODUCTION

Flight Program Operations (AJF) is responsible for all aspects of the FAA Flight Program to include: safety, policy/standards, operations, training, maintenance, administrative services, financial and business management, acquisition, reporting, regulatory compliance, and other internal/external requirements.

In accordance with Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations, 14 CFR 135.426(3)(c), AJF requires that each maintenance provider perform all covered work by following Flight Program Operations’ FAA-accepted General Maintenance Manual (GMM) and FAA-approved Continuous Airworthiness Maintenance Program (CAMP). Any person contracted to perform maintenance, inspection, repair, or alteration on FAA Flight Program aircraft (Beech Aircraft 300s, C90 GTi, Challenger 604s and 605s, and Learjet model 60 aircraft) must be qualified, trained, certified, and authorized to perform the work.

1.1 BACKGROUND

A fleet of FAA owned and uniquely equipped Flight Inspection aircraft perform Flight Inspection missions.

Aircraft Maintenance, Maintenance Services Group maintains and inspects Flight Inspection Aircraft (FIA) under an approved 14 CFR Part 135 program maintaining Flight Inspection Standards (FIS) aircraft and 14 CFR Part 145 Certificated Repair Station for airframes, powerplants, propellers, radios, instruments, accessories, and specialized services. FIS requires Contractor maintenance technicians to accomplish the goals, mandates, and objectives regarding the number of flight inspection missions per year as defined by the FAA and to complete aircraft maintenance of FAA owned and operated aircraft. The FIS may require Contractor maintenance technicians to complete increased aircraft maintenance actions due to FAA mission requirements. The FIS may require Contractor maintenance technicians to complete aircraft maintenance of FAA supported aircraft from other federal agencies.

1.2 SCOPE OF WORK

The FAA requires specialized technical maintenance work associated with installing, repairing, fabricating, maintaining, modifying, calibrating, testing, cleaning, and determining airworthiness of aircraft, including electrical/electronic, airframe, and powerplant systems installed. This requires applying broad experience and technical knowledge of licensed Airframe and Power (A&P) mechanics, as well as licensed avionics mechanics, who understand how aircraft systems operate and are integrated, to successfully perform the work as enumerated throughout this Statement of Work (SOW).

Task 1: Program Management Support

Task 2: Electronic Technical Support

Task 3: Airframe and Powerplant (A&P) Technical Support

Task 4: Supply Technical Support

Task 5: Laborer Support

Task 6: Electronic and A&P Technical Support and Laborer Support of FAA Supported Aircraft (Option)
