SECTION I

1.0 DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES

1.1 GENERAL SCOPE. Materials, labor, supervision and equipment for repainting entire aircraft and minor repairs (if discovered) to extend the static display life on one (1) VC-140 Jetstar in accordance with (IAW) this performance work statement (PWS). The VC-140 is on display due West of the 89th Airlift Wing building (building 1419), near the corner of Arnold Avenue and Menoher Drive on Joint Base Andrews, Maryland.

1.1.1 Description of Services/Objectives. The VC-140 Jetstar will be sanded, have corrosion repaired (not visible to visitor/observers’ eye), repainted using high-quality, glossy, automotive two-part polyurethane, including restoration of all existing decal and painted markings using painted re-application. Windows are to be included in the paint work, blacked out with black gloss paint over the windows.

1.2 BACKGROUND. This job is to return the 89 Airlift Wing’s VC-140 Jetstar static display to original shape and cosmetic appearance to meet historically accurate standards. The VC-140 Jetstar should be painted in a glossy, multicolor paint scheme and all emblems applied in full color for curb-side appeal rather than function. Once painted, this VC-140 should match “Museum Quality” standards in gloss and cleanliness and will be in Presidential Airlift Group approved colors (colors listed section 1.7) (see attachment 1).

1.3 INHERENTLY GOVERNMENTAL FUNCTION. The contractor shall not perform inherently governmental functions as defined in FAR Subpart 7.5 in relationship to this PWS.

1.6.3 The contractor shall verify all vents, wheel wells, flap openings, elevator openings, rudder openings, cowling openings, cowl flap areas, intakes, air scoops, exhausts ducts and the crest of the tail are bird and insect proofed. Further, if the above items are not covered and/or the current covering does not meet the intent to bird or insect proof, the contractor shall repair/replace any necessary items to ensure this standard is met.

1.6.4 Prior to paint, the contractor shall repair or replace any broken windows, canopies, and missing panels. Further, any damaged or missing components that were identified by the government (outlined in paragraph 1.2.) are to be repaired or remanufactured by the contractor to original or museum quality standards. The contractor shall prime and color match the repaired area to original paint color.

1.6.5 The contractor will match the current paint scheme (Presidential Airlift, (colors listed section 1.7)(see attachment 1)) and use the paint types by military specification as outlined in paragraph 1.7. The contractor shall purchase adequate amounts of paint to comply with the requirements of this PWS.

Unofficial visitors must request an Unofficial Visitor Base Pass from the VCC. Passes may be requested through JBA's new base access program called DBIDS Virtual Enrollment and Pass System (DVES).

4.7.5.2 The JB Andrews Visitor Control Center (VCC) requires requesting base access through DVES at least 3 days (72 hours) prior to the planned visit. The VCC will create the pass and send the pass via email to the sponsor, who in turn will forward the pass to their guest. The guest can then print out the pass (recommended) or electronically present the pass via their mobile phone, tablet, or other electronic device, to a Defender at any of JBA's Base Entry Control Points to enter the installation. As an added convenience to those who already possess a state-issued REAL-ID Act compliant Identification Card or Driver's License, their base access permissions can be programmed on their ID, eliminating the extra step of printing the pass. The guest would simply present to the base entry Defender their ID to scan in order to be granted access to the installation.
