1. Description of Service The purpose of this support is to provide the Air Force SEEK EAGLE Office (AFSEO) with defined engineering data, tools, and continuing support for the on-going development, support and maturation of a Full Operational Capability (FOC) F-35 Aircraft-Store Compatibility (ASC) capability.

This task represents a follow-on effort to an IOC F-35A sole source contract awarded to Lockheed Martin (LM) (FA2487-16-C-0097), which will be based on the most recent update to the USAF F-35A Organic Weapon Certification Stand Up implementation Plan, N00019-13-D-0005 Contract Data Requirements List (CDRL) No. A0001 Issue 2 (henceforth known as the ‘Trade Study’), which was conducted by LM to determine the AFSEO’s requirements that would lead to a full F-35A ASC capability. This PWS executes the ‘FOC Toolsets’ aspects of the Trade Study in its entirety. It contains both general and specific requirements in the following AFSEO engineering disciplines and test instrumentation:

- Fit and Function

- Aircraft and Store Loads

- Flutter

- Stability & Control

- Store Separations

- Electromagnetic Environmental Effects (EEE)

LM’s recently completed Trade Study update is used as the basis for this Full Operational Capability (FOC) Toolsets contract. The contractor shall continue to consider necessary future requirements for AFSEO and provide those updates to the Trade Study as this follow-on contractual effort progresses. The contractor shall identify any issues associated with the transfer and licensing of models, simulations, etc.

described in the Trade Study.

The contractor shall furnish all personnel, labor, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and services necessary to provide relevant tools and support for AFSEO to acquire and support a full F-35A ASC capability.

Requirements are defined in the relevant CDRLs.

1.1. Basic Services

The contractor shall provide engineering data, analysis and/or support for the AFSEO F- 35 ASC capability program at the request of AFSEO. The intent is for unique data, analysis and/or support not already covered by other F-35 Joint Program Office (JPO) contracts.

Where data, analysis and/or support are covered by other contracts, the contractor shall identify those contracts to the government, and the government shall have the option of using the existing contract, or requesting support through this contract. When data and/or reports delivered under those contracts have been uploaded to the Joint Data Library (JDL), the contractor shall provide the path to those data and/or reports.

Where software source code is required, the contractor will make every effort to process licensing or release requests through their intellectual property board. In the event that the contractor is unable to release source code or third party software, recommendations will be made on a suitable alternative.

The contractor shall provide technical support to assist the AFSEO in understanding the Information Technology (IT) requirements of the software deliverables within this PWS and to provide technical support to assist in the installation and maintenance of the software as required. This technical support is in the form of answering questions and providing clarifications via e-mail and/or telecoms.

The contractor shall utilize the existing Integrated Digital Environment (IDE) for the F-35 program where the government and contractor may digitally create, store, access, manipulate, share and exchange programmatic and technical data. The contractor shall make all referenced documents within applicable CDRLs delivered available to JPO personnel via the IDE. Note: A separate, distinct section of the JDL shall be used to support this requirement whenever the capabilities resident in JDL are sufficient to meet this requirement. The contractor shall follow the System Development and Demonstration (SDD) Data Management Plan to manage data for the Air Force SEEK EAGLE program. Any software will be delivered to the Government via the Lockheed Martin Software Depot.

The contractor shall maintain all referenced documents within applicable CDRLs delivered to JPO personnel via the IDE and shall be responsible for control currency and configuration management.

Small Business Subcontracting Program (Small Business Utilization) When subcontracting opportunities exist, any contractor receiving a contract award valued for more than the simplified acquisition threshold, shall submit a subcontracting plan for small business, small disadvantaged businesses, HUBZones, women-owned small businesses, service disabled veteran owned small businesses, veteran-owned small businesses, Historically Black Colleges and Universities and Minority Institutions, and Alaska Native Corporations and Indian Tribes. The plan shall contain goals for each of the categories, as well as 10 other elements. This rating element assesses the contractor's performance in meeting the requirements of the plan and achievements against his negotiated goals. The contractor may use one of three types of plans:

Subcontracting plan, commercial plan (for commercial items), and the DoD comprehensive (test) plan. (See FAR 19.704, 52.219-9 for additional guidance.) An Individual Subcontracting Report (ISR) shall be submitted semi-annually during contract performance for the periods ending March 31 and September 30. Reports are due 30 days after the close of each reporting period, unless otherwise directed by the Contracting Officer. A report is also required for each contract within 30 days of contract completion. Summary Subcontract Reports (SSR), including those submitted for comprehensive subcontracting plans under the DoD Small Business Subcontracting Plan (Test Program), shall be submitted semi-annually for the six months ending March 31 and the twelve months ending September 30. Reports are due 30 days after the close of each reporting period. For commercial plans, a SSR is due 30 days after the end of the Government's fiscal year. For the CPARS rating, the Government will use the most recent ISR and/or SSR that the contractor submitted and will not delay the evaluation if the rating period is different than the subcontracting reporting period.

2. Service Summary (SS)

2.1. General

The contractor service requirements are summarized into performance objectives that relate directly to mission essential items.

4.9. Working With Support Contractors:

4.9.1. The Air Force has and will continue to enter into personnel support contracts for services to provide Command, Control, Communication, Computers and Intelligence and Munitions Test Improvement.

4.9.2. Service tasks involve the application of a broad range of education, skills, knowledge, and experience in many disciplines in support of weapon system acquisition tasks. Tasks involve acquiring specialized hardware and software and/or prototype systems to develop/modify the facilities and infrastructure urgently required for test/training and evaluation of C4I and Munitions systems. C4I testing includes tests of the hardware and software systems used for C4I including "System of Systems" and hardware and software systems used on aircraft platforms involved with the C2 test process.

Munitions testing include tests of ground based, airborne, and space borne ordnance/armament systems and supporting guidance and control, seeker/sensor, navigation systems and telemetry systems. Munitions testing also include high energy lasers, high power microwave systems and non-lethal anti-personnel systems. C4I and munitions testing requires the ability to encrypt and decrypt sensitive mission data parameters. The general areas of work include design, development, test, modification, installation, training, and/or transition to production support, all as related to the Air Armament Center (AAC) Range Complex and associated Major Range and Test Facility Base (MRTFB), test hardware and software systems, facilities, and infrastructure improvements. Specific tasking will be provided on an as required basis by delivery order. A secondary requirement for this acquisition is to develop/modify the systems, facilities, and infrastructure required to provide electronic combat test, training, and evaluation support for the Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC) and Air Combat Command (ACC). A tertiary requirement may involve providing these enhancements in testing capability at other facilities in the C4I and Munitions test community.
