Descri tion Quanti

Talon Probe 03

2. Evaluation Scope: Bench test and repair.

National Stock Number NSN Part Number PIN

6625-99-257-9889 4903Hl

3. The Primary focus will be to initiate the repair process completed during the testing and evaluate of clins 1-3 received against 70Z03825PF0000293.

4 The secondary focus will be documenting the cause for wear and serviceability of piece parts requiring replacement to extend unit service life.

5. Work under this purchase order shall be performed at the contractor's facility or a USCG approved facility. The contractor shall provide all necessary parts, materials, labor, tooling, test equipment and facilities to evaluate the component listed in this purchase order at the firm-fixed prices listed in the schedule.

The FFP repair shall include the following:

1. Estimated time for repair and provide technical data.

2. List of replacement parts.

3. List cannibalization process.

6. The contractor must have access to the required CMMs, repair specifications and/or test/acceptance criteria and any other required data to ensure all components are tested and repaired IAW the OEM's current specifications and procedures. The USCG may review repair manuals and performance/test/ acceptance criteria as required. Original design or functional capabilities of the end item and parts thereof shall not be changed unless authorized or directed by the requirements of this SOW.

7. The Contractor must have access to all applicable documents and obtain current editions of all applicable documents. The USCG does not own, nor can it provide the technical documents specified herein. Neither the closing date for receipt of offers nor contract award will be delayed pending receipt of these documents for any offeror.

8. Parts of a component found to be in a serviceable condition as a result of functional testing shall be reused. Missing parts and parts found to be defective or that require replacement by manufacturer's instructions shall be replaced with parts meeting the manufacturer's specifications and drawings or as otherwise authorized in writing by Short Range Recovery (SRR) Engineering. Replacement parts shall be new and accompanied with OEM traceability. The cost for parts that are replaced systematically during repair shall be included in the price listed in the schedule for these operations.

9. Prices do not include components that have been cannibalized or severely damaged due to mishandling or crash damage. Additionally, the MH-65 helicopter is used primarily around salt water at low altitude for search and rescue missions. Therefore, corrosion is to be anticipated and is

70Z03827QB0000016

considered "normal" for the aircraft. Corrosion does not constitute unusual damage. The USCG will be notified of components found to have excessive corrosion which may dictate an exclusion from the prices specified in the contract schedule. Such components shall be inspected, repair costs determined, and authorization to proceed obtained from the contract officer prior to commencement of work.

10. Components received which indicate obvious misuse, cannibalization, or severe damage due to mishandling or crash damage may dictate an exclusion from the prices specified in the contract schedule. Such components shall be inspected, repair costs determined, and authorization to proceed obtained from the Contracting Officer (KO) prior to commencement of work. Once notified of a possible exclusion, The KO will make a written determination within thirty (30) days as to exclusion validity. The Contracting Office may approve the quote, decline the quote and have the item returned as-is, or consider the item BER.

11. The contractor may request an item to be determined BER if after initial inspection of the component the contractor feels that the part requires significant repair/overhaul outside of the scope of the normal repair procedures provided in the OEM's CMM. The contractor's request shall be sent to the KO for consideration. Only the USCG can determine a component BER. The KO will review the request and either accept or deny the BER determination. If the KO denies the BER determination, the contractor shall repair the component back to RFI condition at the firm-fixed price rate agreed upon in the schedule. If the KO determines an item to be BER, the KO shall make a unilateral decision as to component disposition. The contractor shall return all BER items to Aviation Logistics Center (ALC). The contractor shall not return any BER item until they have been notified by a written modification to the order. The contractor shall prepare a failure data report IA W section 13 in these instances. This report shall be included with the returned component. When returning items to ALC, the items shall be clearly marked as "BER" with the supporting evidence.

12. The Government shall not be liable for any amount expended by the contractor in excess of the applicable firm fixed price reflected in the schedule unless prior written authorization has been given by the KO.

13. The contractor shall submit a failure data report for each repaired component. This report shall include NSN, Part Number, Serial Number, nomenclature, date ofrepair, contract delivery order number, line item number, description of repair failure, the USCG's reported failure, a listing of parts repaired and a listing of parts replaced. The contractor's in-house work order may be used to satisfy this requirement if it includes the information requested above. This report shall be attached to the packing slip and shipped with the repaired component.

14. The contractor is required to be certified and maintain a quality system that complies with the requirements ofISO 9001 Quality Management Systems -Requirements, AS9100, or equivalent.
