1.0. General Information

1.1. Background

The FRAM contract has existed in some capacity since 1955 providing aircraft maintenance and logistics support at Fort Rucker, Alabama. Transformation and Training Command (T2COM) establishes the U.S. Army’s training requirements, which are then executed by Aviation Center of Excellence (AVCOE) at Fort Rucker, AL.

Aviation and Missile Command (AMCOM) Combined Logistics Command (ACLC) provides oversight and surveillance of the FRAM requirement, ensuring the performance of quality sustainment, logistics, and materiel support to AVCOE, U.S.

Army Aeromedical Research Laboratory (USAARL), tenant and satellite customers, and other minor aircraft maintenance and logistics requirements supporting Fort Rucker, Alabama.

1.2. Mission

To consistently provide safe, reliable, and mission-ready aircraft every day to the AVCOE at Fort Rucker, Alabama, through comprehensive and high-quality maintenance and logistical support, ensuring uninterrupted flight training. All maintenance and logistics support will be performed in Government facilities utilizing Government- Furnished Property (GFP).

1.3. Scope

The Contractor shall furnish all personnel, management, materiel, parts, supplies, transportation, and equipment, except as provided herein as GFP or provided via the Federal Supply System (FSS), to meet the requirements defined in this PWS. The Contractor shall develop and execute a maintenance program to: (a) support 100% of the AVCOE flying requirements, (b) achieve aircraft readiness/Fully Mission Capable (FMC) goals, and (c) meet the key performance standards in paragraph 2.1 and all performance standards in the PWS. In addition, the Contractor shall ensure flight, ground, and safety programs are performed and documented in accordance with (IAW) AR 95-20. The period of performance for this effort is shown in Table 1 below.

Table 1: Period of Performance Title Duration Period

Phase-In 60 days 16 November 2027 – 15 January 2028 Base 365 Days 16 January 2028 – 15 January 2029 Options Yearly 16 January 2029 – 15 January 2038 Option to Extend Services 180 Days 16 January 2038 – 15 July 2038 Phase-Out 60 Days 16 November 2037 – 15 January 2038

1.4. Applicable Documents

All applicable top-level documents are contained in Attachment 0004, Document Summary List (DSL), by number, title, and date. The document versions specified on the DSL take precedence over the generic references (without revision letters) cited in the PWS. To maintain the airworthiness of all assigned aircraft IAW their respective Airworthiness Release (AWR) the Contractor shall comply with all Government approved directives and current maintenance and operational technical references.

2.0. Performance Requirements

2.1. Key Mission Performance Standards

The Contractor shall meet the Key Mission Performance Standard measurements IAW Table 2 below.

Table 2: Key Performance Standard Measurement Standard Description Measurement PWS Paragraph

1 Daily Mission Performance 100% 2.1.1 2 Monthly/Surge Mission Performance 98% 2.1.2 3 Aircraft Fleet Bank Time See Table 3 2.1.3 4 Aircraft Readiness / FMC Attachment 0003 2.1.4

2.1.1. Daily Mission Performance (DMP)

The Contractor shall provide all requested aircraft IAW PWS paragraph 2.4.2, Daily Mission Launch Requirements Input, to achieve 100% of DMP. DMP measures the Contractor’s success in providing all aircraft required to meet daily contract launch requirements for each fleet. The Government will calculate DMP using Attachment 0002, Mission Performance Calculation, and Attachment 0003, Fleet Calculations. For each day the Contracted Aircraft requirement is achieved at 100% on a fleet, a “YES” will be recorded in the mission performance database for that fleet. For each day the Contracted Aircraft requirement of 100% is not achieved by the Contractor, a “NO” will be recorded in the mission performance database for that fleet. Each fleet will be measured separately and accumulate its own daily performance rate.

The Government provides the following caveats to the DMP calculation:

- Accepted Aircraft: All accepted aircraft will be counted towards mission performance. Additional Issue and Surge aircraft, to include their rejects and spares, are calculated as part of Monthly Surge Mission Performance (MSMP), but do not count for achieving DMP.

- Aircraft Rejections: No mission performance decrement will be applied for an aircraft that is rejected when a spare is provided. A mission performance decrement will be applied if an aircraft is rejected and a spare is not provided or rejected.

- MEDEVAC, AH-64E Maintenance Test Pilot Course (MTPC) aircraft, and fleets with less than ten aircraft are not included in DMP calculations.

2.1.2. Monthly/Surge Mission Performance (MSMP)

The Contractor shall meet the MSMP contract launch requirement of 98% IAW Attachment 0003, Fleet Calculations. MSMP measures overall monthly execution of flight training missions and the surge execution throughout the month to meet un-forecasted increases. The Government will utilize Attachment 0002, Mission Performance Calculation, and Attachment 0003, Fleet Calculations, to calculate MSMP.

MEDEVAC, AH64E MTPC aircraft, and fleets with less than ten aircraft are not included in MSMP calculations.

2.1.3. Aircraft Fleet Phase Bank Time (PBT)

The Contractor shall meet the minimum monthly aircraft fleet PBT requirement IAW Table 3 below. All fleets, except the UH-72A fleets, are measured separately each month. The UH-72A Initial Entry Rotary Wing (IERW) and UH-72A Basic Warfighter Skills (BWS) fleet data are combined to measure total UH-72A PBT. PBT hours for aircraft completing phase is added to the fleet Phase Bank Time once the phase aircraft is flyable and ready for post-phase test flight. UH-72A PBT is based on the periodic inspection every 800 hours/36 months.

Table 3: Phase Bank Time Year Monthly Requirement

Base Year 47%

OY1-OY9 50%

2.1.4. Aircraft Readiness / Fully Mission Capable (FMC)
