Attachment 14:
Advanced Technology (AT)/Computed Tomography (CT)
Statement of Work (SOW)
A00004A00005
1. Background
1.1. The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) was created to meet the nation’s need for safety and security throughout our transportation infrastructure, including all modes of transportation in the United States and several international locations.
1.2. Based on previous Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and TSA efforts, TSA recognizes CT screening technology as the most impactful capability currently available to address the rapidly-evolving threats at airport checkpoints.
2. Purpose
2.1. The purpose of the requirement is for the Contractor to provide TSA with AT/CT systems, simulators, program management, warranties, configuration management services, as well as shipping and installation. All other associated labor, materials, and travel required to meet the requirements of this Statement of Work shall be provided by the Contractor.
3. Definitions
3.1. This section defines words and terms that are used throughout this SOW.
“Ao” – Operational Availability. The percentage of time, during operational hours, that a security equipment technology is available to perform its required mission. (Uptime/Total Operational Time)
“Authorized Deviation” – a temporary departure from requirements and do not constitute a permanent change.
“Configuration Audit Summary Report” (CASR) – provides text and (marked-up) technical documents (e.g., specifications, engineering drawings) that identify discrepancies between the material (including software) and the requirements delineated in the applicable technical documents. Depending on the type of audit, the identified discrepancies may be attributable to the material, the technical documents, or both.
“Configuration baseline” – the Contractor’s TSA approved AT/CT Qualified Product List system configuration and associated TSA bins.
“Corrective maintenance” – consists of unscheduled maintenance activities performed to repair or otherwise restore failed TSE to operational condition. These actions usually expend consumable and repair parts.
“Engineering Change Proposal” (ECP) – a request to incorporate a permanent change to product configuration, which produces a new baseline.
“Failure Mode Identifier” (FMI) codes – a list of standardized problem codes, definitions, and priority ratings for trouble ticket generation.
“Formal Test” – any test that demonstrates equipment operational capabilities to verify machine functionality.
“Ingress/Egress Conveyer” - The ingress system is conveyances (rollers/belts) to introduce bags into the CT. The Egress system is the conveyances (rollers/belts) to exit the bags from the system.
“Operational Time” – Period of time within a twenty-four (24) hour day that an airport is operational. Security equipment is required to be available to perform its required mission during operational hours.
“Peripheral Equipment” – All equipment associated with AT/CT scanners required to operate the system, to include but not limited to, Primary Viewing Stations (PVS), Alternate Viewing Stations (AVS), as well as any other equipment requiring asset inventory tracking, such as ingress / egress conveyors and diverter systems.
“Request for Deviation” (RFD) – a request to temporarily incorporate a known departure from product requirements.
“Request for Waiver” (RFW) – a request to incorporate a known departure from product requirements.
“Test Readiness Notification” (TRN) – a notification from the Contractor to the Government stating that the equipment specified therein will be ready for testing on the specified date.
“Uptime” – the period of time a system is available to perform its required mission during operational hours. The natural cycle of uptime occurs during operational hours.
“Value Engineering Change Proposal” (VECP) – a proposal submitted by a contractor under the value engineering provisions of Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 48 that, through a change in the contract, would lower the project’s life-cycle cost.
