SOW – DMS Tech Manual Updates – Task Order Statement of Work (SOW) for Defense Maritime Solutions, Inc. (DMS) Engineering Services
1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.0.1 The Naval Surface Warfare Center Philadelphia Division (NSWCPD) is a Department of Defense entity responsible for research and development, test and evaluation, engineering and fleet support organization for the Navy’s ships, submarines, military watercraft and unmanned vehicles. This requirement is for NSWCPD Code 427, which is responsible for Surface Ship Propellers, Shafting, Waterjets, and Bow Thrusters.
1.0.2 This contract is for non-personal services. It does not create employment rights with the U.S. Government whether actual, inherent, or implied
1.0.3 Government/Contractor Relationship
1.0.3.1 The services to be delivered under this Task Order are non-personal services and the parties recognize and agree that no employer-employee relationship exists or will exist under the Task Order between the Government and the Contractor's personnel. Therefore, it is in the best interest of the Government to provide both parties a full understanding of their respective obligations.
1.0.3.2 The Contractor employees shall identify themselves as Contractor personnel by introducing themselves or being introduced as Contractor personnel and displaying distinguishable badges or other visible identification for meetings with Government personnel. In addition, Contractor personnel shall appropriately identify themselves as Contractor employees in telephone conversations and in formal and informal written correspondence.
1.0.3.3 Contractor personnel under this Task Order shall not engage in any of the inherently Governmental functions listed at FAR Subpart 7.5 or DFARS Subpart 207.5.
1.0.4 Employee Relationship:
1.0.4.1 The services to be performed under this Task Order do not require the Contractor or its personnel to exercise personal judgment and discretion on behalf of the Government. Rather the Contractor's personnel will act and exercise personal judgment and discretion on behalf of the Contractor.
1.0.4.2 Rules, regulations, directives, and requirements that are issued by the U. S. Navy and NSWCPD under its responsibility for good order, administration, and security are applicable to all personnel who enter a Government installation or who travel on Government transportation. This is not to be construed or interpreted to establish any degree of Government control that is inconsistent with a non-personal services contract.

1.0.4.4 It is the Contractor's, as well as the Government's, responsibility to monitor Task Order activities and notify the Contracting Officer if the Contractor believes that the intent of this Section has been or may be violated.
1.0.4.4.1 The Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer in writing via letter or email within three (3) calendar days from the date of any incident that the Contractor considers to constitute a violation of this Section. The notice should include the date, nature, and circumstances of the conduct; the name, function, and activity of each Government employee or Contractor official or employee involved or knowledgeable about such conduct; identify any documents or substance of any oral communication involved in the conduct; and the Contractor's estimated date when, absent a response, cost, schedule or performance will be impacted.
1.0.4.4.2 The Contracting Officer will, within five (5) calendar days after receipt of notice, respond to the notice in writing. In responding, the Contracting Officer will either:
| (i) | Confirm the conduct is in violation and when necessary direct the mode of further performance, |
| (ii) | Countermand any communication regarded as a violation, |
| (iii) | Deny that the conduct constitutes a violation and when necessary direct the mode of further performance, or |
| (iv) | In the event the notice is inadequate to make a decision, advise the Contractor what additional information is required, and establish the date by which it should be furnished by the Contractor. |
1.1 BACKGROUND
1.1.1 The Littoral Combat Ship Independence Class (LCS 2V) Waterjet system has seven (7) technical manuals for system basics, hydraulics, and control system.
1.1.1.1 LCS 6 through 26 and LCS 28 through 38 have different system configurations, therefore there are multiple manuals. Each configuration has three (3) manuals for its system layout; these are manuals for the propulsion system, hydraulics and lubrication, and the control system. The control system changes on LCS 32, so there are different control manuals between LCS 28 and 30, and LCS 32 through 38. However, on LCS 28 through 38 the propulsion system overview and the hydraulics and lubrication tech manuals are the same.
1.1.2 The technical manuals are out of date and need to be updated.
1.1.3 LCS 28 changed the layout of the Waterjet system, the tech manuals also needed a change with the system updates. Rather than writing a new manual, LCS 28 through 38’s manual is a copy and paste of the previous manuals with the information changed. A lot of information was missing when it was done this way. There are many instances in the LCS 28 and follow (AF) tech manuals that mention and discuss LCS 6 through 26 configuration and lack the details for the LCS 28AF configuration. Comment by Lin, Daniel J CIV USN NSWCDIV PHL PA (USA): This seems like a separate thought/idea.
1.1.4 Code 427 is responsible for providing the most accurate and updated technical information to the fleet. The inconsistencies and inaccuracies in the current tech manuals need to be corrected.
1.2 SCOPE OF WORK
1.2.1 The contractor shall review and edit all LCS 2V Waterjet technical manuals as called out in Section 2.0.
1.2.2 In support of these efforts, the contractor shall conduct all checks as defined in Section 3.0 of this SOW. These findings shall then be provided to the DMS engineering team and NSWCPD Waterjet Team (Code 427) for review and analysis and to determine if any additional edits need to be made. Upon completion of this review, the contractor shall develop and deliver a detailed report outlining all edits made.

The references above are all the latest version. Comment by Grimes, Kayleigh A CIV USN NSWCDIV PHL PA (USA): This wording is in the contract template
3.0. REQUIREMENTS Comment by Lin, Daniel J CIV USN NSWCDIV PHL PA (USA): Are we not including things/topics that we want modified/added/deleted from the TMs that we already know about in the requirements? Comment by Richards, Samuel J CIV USN NSWCDIV PHL PA (USA): We should be providing a document that lists specific changes and requirements like we did with 1V TM Comment by Grimes, Kayleigh A CIV USN NSWCDIV PHL PA (USA): We can provide the list we have as a document, or mention bigger changes. I feel like you said to make it generic and then we can give them a list, but I could be wrong
3.1 The contractor shall provide labor required to complete the scope of work described in Section 1.2. In support of these efforts, the following requirements are established. Comment by Lin, Daniel J CIV USN NSWCDIV PHL PA (USA): What materials, equipment, special tools, and technical expertise is required to update the TMs?
3.2 The contractor shall develop, submit and maintain a project plan that demonstrates the contractor’s understanding of the task order requirements and establishes critical and measurable task milestones (CDRL A001). The project plan shall also include the requisite tasks and sub-tasks that connect the project milestones, and the predecessor/successor relationship of each task and sub-task, such that a clear path to task completion is represented. For each task and sub-task, baseline start/end dates and task durations shall be established. As the project progresses, actual start/end dates and revised (if necessary) task durations shall be included in revisions to the project plan, in addition to the baseline start/end dates. The contractor shall attach a completion percentage to each task and sub-task, and the percentage complete for each task shall roll up to the milestone and overall project levels, such that a clear and supportable completion percentage is reflected at the task order, milestone and task/sub-task levels. The first submittal of the project plan shall be no later than two weeks after task order award, and subsequent submittals shall be made in conjunction with each bi-weekly status meeting.
3.3 The contractor shall schedule and conduct monthly meetings, not to exceed 1-hour in duration each. Required attendance shall include at least one (1) technical representative each from the contractor and the Government, and at least one (1) programmatic lead or managerial representative from the contractor. During these status meetings, the contractor shall discuss progress made since the previous meeting, work anticipated to be completed in the ensuing period, problem areas encountered and other topics relevant to the execution of this task order. The contractor shall submit via email, discussion items and talking points and an updated project plan at least one day prior to each meeting. After the completion of each bi-weekly status meeting, the contractor shall develop and submit meeting minutes (via email). Meeting minutes shall be submitted no later than three business days after each bi-weekly meeting.
3.4 The contractor shall take the current technical manuals to review and make edits. Code 427 wants edits made, including but not limited to the following.
3.4.1 Correct and verify all configuration inconsistencies between all the referenced tech manuals. For example, S9247-AR-MMC-A20 calls out the use of a PTO pump, which is not used in the LCS 28 through 38 configuration.
3.4.2 S9247-AR-MMC-010 has sections of S9247-AR-MMC-020 embedded in the manual. These sections should be removed so the manuals are separated between propulsion system overview and hydraulics and lubrication.
3.4.3 S9247-AR-MMC-A10 has sections of S9247-AR-MMC-A20 embedded in the manual. These sections should be removed so the manuals are separated between propulsion system overview and hydraulics and lubrication.
3.4.4 With the LCS 2V ships being deployed around the world, sometimes at inaccessible locations, the troubleshooting sections shall include more specific troubleshooting methods for common issues that have been experienced throughout the lifecycle of LCS 2V. This should provide the necessary information for ship's force to troubleshoot and diagnose problems.
3.4.5 In each of the manuals, the contractor should review and update all parts lists and drawings to scrub out any obsolete components. Any obsolete components should be updated across all documentation.
3.4.6 There are missing parts details, obsolete parts that need to be changed, and incorrect and missing drawings for the Local Indicator Panel, Waterjet Control Unit, Local Control Panel across all referenced Lipstronic tech manuals.
3.4.7 There are wiring diagram inconsistencies across S9247-AS-MMC-010 and S9247-AR-MMC-020. This must be updated so troubleshooting can be done correctly.
3.5 The contractor shall complete Contract Status Reports (CDRL A001) once a month on all the edits that have been made.
3.6 The contractor must send edits to Code 427 for review. The contractor shall not make any changes without approval from Code 427.
