Component Records and Reports

10.1 Asset Computerized Maintenance System (ACMS) Reporting and Tracking Requirements

The components covered under this SOW are tracked in the USCG’s ACMS. ACMS is the information management system used to schedule, track, and record all USCG equipment maintenance actions and calibration intervals.

10.1.1 Tracked components will be shipped to the Contractor with a Significant Component History Record

(SCHR). The SCHR records the maintenance history of the serial number tracked components. It remains with its corresponding part until reinstalled on an aircraft or is annotated “BER” and scrapped (NOTE: The Contracting

Officer’s written approval and disposition instructions are required prior to scrapping any component in accordance with section 3.5). The SCHR for scrapped components shall be returned with the component, and the

Contractor shall retain a copy of the SCHR for 90 calendar days.

The Contractor shall provide a Component Repair Record (CRR) with the repaired component(s). The CRR records the maintenance performed on a serial number tracked component and enrolls or disenrolls components from ACMS when those components are scrapped, added to, or removed from the USCG inventory. At a minimum, the CRR shall identify the equipment and contain a description of the maintenance action performed, parts replaced, service bulletins and modifications. The original CRR shall be packed with the component. The

Contractor shall retain a copy of each CRR for 90 calendar days. The Contractor may request that their in-house work order be accepted to fulfill the CRR requirement. The Contracting Officer will provide a written determination in response to the request. In the event that the Contractor is directed to ship components to a destination other than ALC in accordance with section 4.4, the Contractor shall email one (1) copy of the CRR to the Contracting Officer no later than five (5) business days following completion of the work.

10.2 Contractor Verification of Receipt of Components

S/N tracking shall be used for validating the correct component(s) were received at the Contractor’s overhaul facility and returned to the USCG. Upon receipt of the component(s) from the USCG, the Contractor shall verify each component received to ensure that the S/N’s match those specified in the delivery order prior to any work being performed. Should a discrepancy be identified, the Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer in writing of the discrepancy. Email notification is acceptable. The USCG utilizes an S/N tracking system and places high priority on parts integrity within aircraft components. As a result, any part which is determined to be in a serviceable condition as a result of inspection and functional testing shall be reused in the component from which it was removed, if practical, with the exception of parts specifically replaced during the overhaul as required by the directives as specified within the order.

10.2.1 Occasionally, a component may be received without a legible data inscription. When the data inscription is illegible or missing, the Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer in writing requesting approval of serial number assignment. Upon the Contracting Officer’s acceptance of the serial number proposed, a modification may be issued stating the serial number to be assigned. Upon receipt of a fully executed modification authorizing assignment of the stated serial number, the Contractor shall inscribe the new information on the component. The inscription shall include all the required information about the component including the newly assigned serial number.

10.3 Monthly Production Report

The Contractor shall submit a monthly production report to the Contracting Officer no later than the 15th day of each month. The production report shall provide the status of each component received, inducted, and shipped during the monthly reporting period. Any format is acceptable as long as the report provides the following information: nomenclature, P/N, NSN, S/N, delivery order, line item number, receipt date at Contractor’s facility, date scheduled to be inducted, date inducted, date scheduled for delivery, total days in work, if the part is late, and any comments.

10.4 Quarterly Audits

The ALC conducts quarterly audits validating possession of GFP at commercial Contractor facilities. The

Contractor shall follow the instructions provided each quarter by ALC and comply with its instructions. The

Contractor’s role shall be to validate possession each component identified by S/N. Validation shall take place on the same date as the audit.

10.5 Failure Data Report

The Contractor shall submit a failure data report for each overhauled component. This report shall include NSN, P/N, S/N, nomenclature, date of overhaul, delivery order number, line item number, description of overhauled failure, the USCG’s reported failure, a listing of parts repaired, and a listing of parts replaced. The Contractor’s in-house work order may be used to satisfy this requirement if it includes the information requested above. This report shall be attached to the packing slip and shipped with the overhauled component.

Delivery Requirements

11.1 Turn Around Time (TAT) and Monthly Output Rate

The Contractor shall provide component overhauls in accordance with the TAT and output rate established for each component in the Schedule of Supplies. Component delivery dates will be established on each delivery order based on the sum of the TAT, days to induction, and approximate number of days for delivery of the component to the Contractor. Future scheduled monthly delivery quantities will be tracked by the Government and considered when calculating delivery dates. In the event that the calculated delivery date of a component falls within a month that has scheduled deliveries up to the established output rate, the delivery date of that component will be moved to the following month.

11.1.1 The USCG anticipates the non-RFI components will be shipped within five (5) business days after issuance of a delivery order. The Contractor will not be penalized if the USCG is not timely in the shipment of the components.

11.1.2 The Contractor shall, at a minimum, induct the number of components to meet the monthly output rate established in the Schedule of Supplies. Induction shall take place no later than 20 calendar days after receipt of the components at the Contractor’s facility. If the number of repairable Rotary Blades in the Contractor’s possession falls below what is needed to maintain the established delivery rate, the Contractor will be allowed a one (1) for one (1) exception to the delivery requirement.

11.1.3 If a modification is issued to upgrade from a minor to a major overhaul or strip and rebuild, the delivery date shall be extended by the number of days established in the TAT for that component from the effective date of the modification.

11.2 Early Deliveries

The USCG desires early deliveries therefore early shipments are encouraged at no additional costs to the

Government. In the event the Contractor anticipates or encounters difficulty in complying with the delivery schedule or date, they shall immediately notify the Contracting Officer in writing. All requests for time extensions shall be in writing and shall include substantiation of the need for such time extension(s) in accordance with FAR

52.212-4(f), excusable delays. If nonperformance is not covered by an excusable delay, the Contractor and the

Contracting Officer shall negotiate consideration for the approval of the extended delivery date. A modification will be issued to the order to reflect the consideration and the extension.

11.3 Free On Board (F.O.B.) Point

The F.O.B. point for shipments under this contract is F.O.B. Origin. The shipping charges must be included as a separate line item on the invoice.
