· Support required / authorized Combat Lines, Surges and Commander-directed Sorties (CDS)

· Support MQ-9 Aircraft diverts and/or approved alternate locations for in-flight emergencies, weather issues, or for other unforeseen circumstances to include satellite communication launch & recovery of aircraft, service aircraft, upload/download weapons, perform required maintenance. This does not include Crash Damaged or Disabled Aircraft Recovery operations.

· Support agile combat employment schemes of maneuverability from the main operating base to a forward location to maintain survivability and provide flexibility for operations.

· As required, support MQ-9 continuation training operations state-side to prepare and certify forces IAW Air Force’s Force Generation

T-38 – Current PWS on in-progress T-38 Contract

The ACC Acquisition Management and Integration Center (AMIC) managed T-38 AMP contract provides for the sustainment of 62 T-38A/AT-38B/T-38C aircraft. These T-38 aircraft are located at Beale, Holloman, Langley, and Whiteman AFBs. The program utilizes one Centralized Repair Facility (CRF) located at Holloman AFB, NM to service the four geographically separated T-38 Operating Locations (OL). The CRF contractor workforce performs all aircraft phase inspections with associated intermediate (back-shop) repairs. CRF technicians also perform aircraft modifications as approved by the T-38 System Program Office. The CRF must have a sufficient workforce to meet CRF maintenance requirements, deploy technicians to repair OL aircraft with discrepancies beyond the OL on-site capability, and deploy technicians to repair aircraft broken off-station.

In addition, aircraft maintenance support is required at Holloman AFB for the 704th Test Group. Contractor-provided tenant support is also required for US Army Air Operations Directorate, White Sands Missile Range, NM, 82nd Aerial Targets Squadron Detachment, Holloman AFB and NASA, El Paso, TX. The T-38 AMP contractor must provide the Program Management, Operations and Maintenance (O&M), Mission Support, and Transition necessary to achieve effective and efficient aircraft maintenance services as defined in the PWS.

NAMSS – Current PWS on in-progress NAMSS Contract

The 57th Wing, as the most diverse wing in the Air Force, provides advanced, realistic, and multi-domain training focused on ensuring dominance through air, space, and cyberspace. The 57th Wing builds innovative leaders in tactics, training and high-end warfighting to ensure world-wide combat air forces are prepared for tomorrow's victories, while overseeing dynamic and challenging flight operations at Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada. The 57th Wing includes the United States Air Force Weapons School and the 57th Maintenance Group. Comprised of 21 squadrons, the USAF Weapons School teaches graduate-level instructor courses that provide the world's most advanced training in weapons and tactics employment to the Combat Air Forces, Mobility Air Forces and Space Forces. Every six months, the school produces approximately 130 graduates who are expert instructors on weapons, weapons systems, as well as air, space and cyberspace integration. 57th Maintenance Group is the Air Force's most complex maintenance group provides on- and off-equipment maintenance for over 160 assigned A-10, F-15E, F-16, F-22 and F-35 aircraft to support 10 flying programs, and all visiting Red Flag, Green Flag, and operational test and evaluation aircraft. The 57 MXG is comprised of three Aircraft Maintenance Squadrons and one Munitions Squadron

The Nellis Aircraft Maintenance and Support Services program provides all backshop maintenance services for the 57 MXG; operation of one F-16 Aircraft Maintenance Unit supporting Operational Test and Evaluation activities; 57 MXG staff services such as Maintenance Operations Center, Maintenance Training, Maintenance Analysis, and Plans, Scheduling and Documentation; and computer server maintenance and administration.

BACN – No PWS shall be provided at this time

The mission of the Battlefield Airborne Communications Node (BACN) multi-role communications system is to provide military commanders, warfighters, emergency personnel and first responders with a versatile means of exchanging voice and data information between disparate air, ground, maritime and commercial sources, including host nation, joint, coalition and disaster response forces. This capability includes voice relay, bridging and an airborne server capability for data storage. Military commanders and disaster response forces can employ these BACN capabilities to augment theater and area communications and support deployed forces across the range of military and disaster relief operations. BACN reduces line-of-sight issues, communications system incompatibilities, SATCOM dependencies, and provides greater range and flexibility for communications links. This requirement includes all personnel and resources to support actions required for operating and maintaining the aircraft, aircraft subsystems, ancillary equipment, spares, consumables and expendables, airworthiness certifications and execution of, or support for, required platform modifications.
