1.0 GENERAL

1.1 Background

The United States Coast Guard (USCG or simply CG) operates an aircraft Tow Tractor, Model MT3, Standard Aircraft Towing System (SATS), at Air Station Clearwater for small to mid-range, all-weather, CG aircraft movements, as a multi-purpose vehicle for aircraft support equipment. Air Station Clearwater deploys the SATS tractor to the Great Inagua (GI) deployment site where, within the proximity to a salt distillation facility with brine ponds, causes severe surface corrosion of the steel tractor(s). Further, the vehicles deployed to GI operate off improved surfaces, increasing their wear and tear. Clearwater SATS tractors require refurbishment to extend their service life and to ensure safe operations. Tractor serial numbers 30648, 30651, 30652 and 30654 are included in this Statement Of Work (SOW).

1.2 Scope

The CG requires the refurbishment of four (4) MT3 SATS Tow Tractors for physical and functional discrepancies related to the overall condition of all installed/mounted components for any un-serviceable or beyond repair conditions as a mid-service-life overhaul project, to include all aforementioned corrosion discrepancies of the entire tractor assembly.

All four (4) Tow Tractors shall be repaired to a fully operational service status and be entirely re-painted as part of as a mid-service-life overhaul effort. As a primary task, the Contractor shall provide the CG documentation for mandatory repair actions to return the Tow Tractor(s) to a fully operational service status IAW OEM standards, to a "like new" status.

The Contractor is responsible for the pick-up and return of the Tow Tractor(s) from Air Station Clearwater to the Contractor’s facilities and returned to Air Station Clearwater post mid-service-life overhaul.

The Contractor may take one (1) each, two (2) each, or all four (4) Tow Tractors at one time or alternate times for the remainder to start the initial mid-service-life overhaul effort, depending upon their facility limitations or production schedules. A mid-service-life overhaul effort is anticipated to require 30 to 45 days, from pick-up to delivery, per Tow Tractor.

The Contractor shall furnish all facilities, inspection materials, parts, equipment, tools, and services necessary to fulfill the requirements of this contract.
