About this file
This Performance Work Statement (PWS) details a comprehensive radome replacement program for the Atmospheric Early Warning System (AEWS) involving 27 long-range radomes across multiple locations in Alaska, Canada, Utah, and Hawaii. The contract requires manufacturing, transportation, removal, installation, and disposal of composite radomes protecting AN/FPS-117 radar antenna systems, with most existing radomes approaching 30 years of installed life and experiencing significant panel decay.
Key requirements include developing a comprehensive Radar Protection Plan, conducting factory and site acceptance tests, producing technical documentation, performing installation and disassembly at remote sites with extreme climate conditions, and safely disposing of legacy radome materials. The contract is structured with Firm Fixed Price (FFP) for material purchases, Cost Reimbursable No Fee (CRNF) for travel, and Cost-Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF) for over-and-above work, with a total contract period of 7 years and a 6-month option. Critical deliverables include site survey reports, technical data packages, training materials, safety documentation, and monthly status reports tracking project progress across multiple geographic locations.

1.1 Background
The Alaska Radar System (ARS) spans throughout the state of Alaska, and the North Warning System (NWS) consists of a sequence of radar sites operating across the northern and eastern coasts of Canada; from the Yukon in the west to the southern Labrador coast in the east. Each site houses an FPS-117 Radar System Antenna. Each antenna is protected by multiple configurations of radomes and towers. Most radomes have an expected life cycle of 20 years. However, many of the USAF radomes are approaching 30 years of installed life and are experiencing serious panel decay. The decay will eventually impact operational availability of the FPS-117 radar, and by extension the entire site if the antenna is damaged due to exposure to the elements.

The Contractor shall ensure all CDRL deliveries comply with the CDRLs associated Data Item Description (DID). In some instances, this PWS requires extra data/details associated with a CDRL delivery and The Contractor shall incorporate the extra data/details as defined by this PWS or the Task Order PWS. If a CDRL is rejected by the government, The Contractor shall have ten (10) business days to correct or adjudicate the comments and re-deliver the CDRL. If The Contractor determines that if the complexity of the deliverable or number of comments require more than ten (10) business days, then the Contractor shall request an extension providing detailed reasons as to why an extension is needed and a proposed completion date to the PMO PM for consideration and approval. The Contractor shall make that request within five (5) business days of receiving the rejected deliverable.
2.6.1 Definition of Accepted, Approved and Rejected
CDRL deliverables can quickly hinder a programs ability to progress from one milestone to the next and it is imperative that the government and Contractor use the same terminology to understand the status of a CDRL delivery.
• Accepted – The meaning of accepted is the CDRL met the DID and PWS requirements only. The format is accepted only.
• Approved – The meaning of approved is the CDRL met the DID and PWS requirements and the content of the
CDRL in its current version is approved for format and content by the government.
• Approved Final – The meaning of approved final is the CDRL has met the DID and PWS requirements and the content of the CDRL is sufficient in its current version to be considered a final approved CDRL by the government and does not require any further updates.
• Rejected – The CDRL deliverable is not approved. A Rejected CDRL will be returned to The Contractor with a standardized government comment resolution matrix form and/or red line mark ups/comments within the document that require corrections/adjudication from The Contractor.
If something within the program changes that requires the approved final CDRL to be updated, then The Contractor shall inform the government. The Contractor and the government will discuss and agree to an approved re-delivery timeline for review and the CDRL will require another Approved Final prior to considering the CDRL successfully met.
2.6.2 Government CDRL review process
The government shall have thirty (30) calendar days or twenty (20) business days whichever is greater to review and provide comments or a decision to The Contractor using terminology previously defined. Most CDRLs will have an initial, subsequent, and final delivery.
A CDRL on Initial delivery will first be reviewed to ensure they meet the DID and PWS requirements and if they do the CDRL will be identified as Accepted. If the CDRL is not acceptable, then it shall be rejected for corrections as previously defined.
A CDRL on subsequent delivery will be reviewed for content only if it has already been identified as accepted. If the content is considered sufficient based on the timing of the program it will be identified as accepted or accepted final.
If the CDRL is not acceptable, then it shall be rejected for corrections as previously defined.
A CDRL on final delivery will be reviewed for content only if it has already been identified as accepted. If the content is considered sufficient then the CDRL can be identified as accepted final. If the CDRL is not sufficient then the CDRL will be identified as rejected for corrections as previously defined.
