ABDR Trailers Statement of Work

1.1 PURPOSE

Produce and deliver ABDR Trailers that will reside at multiple oversea locations. The internal contents within the trailer must follow the basic configuration design of the ABDR Prototype Tool Trailer located at Wright Patterson AFB which serves as the foundation or “prototype”.

ABDR Trailers must be capable of long-term sustainment in harsh weather environments and must include maintenance data necessary for lifetime sustainment.

1.2 BACKGROUND

Expeditionary Depot Maintenance (EDMX) personnel are active duty depot maintenance technicians during peacetime but their primary mission is to serve as Aircraft Battle Damage Repair technicians during conflict. ABDR forces rapidly deploy to repair battle damaged aircraft across 10 different airframes: A-10, B-1, B-52, C-130, KC-135s, C-5, E-3, F-15, F-16, and F-22.

To support these forces, the ABDR Technical Support Office (TSO) currently sustains 60 ABDR Trailers worldwide. These trailers contain non-hazardous tooling and parts required for execution of these repairs.

1.3 CURRENT STATE

The current ABDR Trailers are built on top of old demilitarized MHU-12 and MHU-141 ammo trailers. Provisions were added to house tool cabinets and sheet metal in order to support the ABDR mission. Through attrition, new aircraft have dictated additional tooling be added in order to support changing mission requirements, for which we no longer have space to expand or alter due to space and weight constraints. Trailers are stored in facilities ranging from fully enclosed supply buildings, to open ended hangar storage, but deployed to Forward Operating Bases, and improvised landing locations outside, in order to support mission requirements.

1.4 JUSTIFICATION

The ABDR program and its aircraft maintenance technicians are currently operating with ABDR Trailers that are slowly deteriorating in condition. Salt-water and sand locations, paired with long term storage in humid environments, have slowly done their toll on overall lifespan.

Additionally, it is necessary to produce modern trailers that will maximize use of space, improve efficiency for the maintenance technicians, and prepare to accommodate upcoming next generation aircraft repair tooling and fasteners.

1.5 CONTENTS THAT MUST BE INTEGRATED TO TRAILER

1.5.1 Tooling Cabinets: must be provided and mounted to trailer floor. Also, provide 4 each steel posts and 4 each steel roll holders mounted to upper back of tooling cabinets (see Trailer Right Side and Trailer Left Side photos).

1.5.2 Tools, Foam, and PVC: all tools from the “Inventory Listing” attachment must be included and inserted to black foam pre-cut out specifically for tools with red PVC to provide as a backing. All tools must be etched and labels must be on PVC where tool cutout is in order to help identify tool locations (see Photo 3 and Photo 4).

1.5.3 Bench Stock Items: All bench stock items must be provided and placed into bins (see Bench Stock Listing attachment and Photo 5).

1.11 DESIGN REVIEW

1.11.1 Design will have a minimum of three design reviews completed with the ABDR program office prior to and after delivery, in order to verify usability of the final product;

these reviews consist of an Initial Design Review, Pre-Production Design Review and a Post- Production Design Review. Design reviews can be sent to contracting office via email where we then can coordinate teleconferences with the contractor for in-depth discussions. Upon arrival at testing phase, it will be done by the contractor under the supervision of ABDR certified personnel for immediate feedback. The USAF ABDR Program office will retain the rights to the final drawing package after the final design has been accepted to maintain product uniformity and avoid design deviation. The ABDR Program Office prefers highly detailed CAD style data captured in PDF format, both physical format and digital format, for ease of access.

1.12 DELIVERABLES

1.12.1 A First Article preproduction model is required in FY25 as the initial stage of production. This First Article, along with all other ABDR Trailers, must be in compliance with Air Transportability Test Loading Activity (ATTLA) requirements specified in para

1.6.1.4 MIL-STD-1791D, which is the guidance for building items to be transported on MILAIR cargo aircraft. The ATTLA Universal Data Sheet attachment will be completed by the vendor and sent to the ABDR Program Office as the government sponsor. The data will then be forwarded to AFLCMC/EZFC for Air Transport Engineers to validate and approve ATTLA certification. This will ensure conformance with specified contract requirements, demonstrate capability after award but prior to production quantities in FY26 and beyond.

First Article must be completed in compliance with these ATTLA requirements as well as all other contents/requirements specified in this document. One fully completed First Article must be delivered within 120-days of government order date. Government will inspect and approve First Article within 90-days of delivery and receipt. The contractor cannot begin production until the government has approved the First Article. If First Article is unacceptable, government will provide detailed feedback/corrective actions necessary to resubmit First Article. The government will collaborate, as necessary, with the vendor to ensure corrective actions are acceptable prior to beginning full production of the trailers.

After First Article approval, vendor must be capable of producing 9 ABDR trailers and delivered to the government within 120-days of order date.

1.12.2 Potential minimum order quantity of 1 trailer (which will serve as the First Article) and maximum quantity of 9 ABDR Trailers within the base year. Potential minimum quantity of 1 and maximum quantity of 9 ABDR Trailers each option year to span 10-year IDIQ. Each ABDR trailer must have the following contents installed within:

1.12.2.1 Tool Cabinets.

1.12.2.2 Tools, Foam and PVC.

1.12.2.3 Bench Stock Items.

1.12.3 Servicing Criteria outlined in para 1.10.

1.12.4 The government will own the design and requires all data such as material characteristics and blueprints (both hard copies and digital files) providing technical information outlined in para 1.11.
