About this file

This is a Statement of Work (SOW) for a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) establishing commercial powder coating services for the U.S. Air Force.

The customer is ACC/A3, Detachment 9 located at Luke Air Force Base, Arizona. The contractor shall provide industrial/military-grade powder coating services for aluminum chassis enclosures and components used in Low-Cost Threat Emitter (LCTE) systems supporting pilot training operations. Each complete LCTE system consists of two fabricated aluminum shells (one for the NINER Threat Emitter Payload and one for the auxiliary power solution) with four access doors per shell, totaling eight doors per system. Work will be ordered on a recurring basis with an estimated annual production tempo of approximately 50 complete LCTE systems per year, equivalent to 100 chassis shells and 400 access doors annually, processed in periodic batches aligned with fabrication milestones.

The powder coating finish must be durable, uniform, and non-porous, specifically designed to protect lightweight aluminum enclosures against extreme outdoor climatic elements, salt spray oxidation, and galvanic corrosion. The coating must provide superior resistance to abrasion, chipping, gouging, and transit impact wear compared to wet-applied paint systems, as LCTE units are ruggedized field equipment frequently transported and relocated. The contractor must ensure the powder coating application effectively seals chassis seams against blowing sand, dust, and moisture ingress without trapping localized condensation, maintaining long-term operational integrity and proper thermal management for internal high-power RF emitter electronics. The contractor shall provide all required labor, materials, equipment, and supervision to complete the work.

Statement of Work (SOW)

Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) – Commercial Powder Coating Services Customer: ACC/A3, Detachment 9 (Luke AFB, AZ)

1. Description of Scope of Work & Equipment

The contractor shall provide all labor, materials, equipment, and supervision required to apply industrial/military-grade powder coating to aluminum chassis enclosures and components for Low-Cost Threat Emitter (LCTE) systems in support of ACC/A3 pilot training operations. Each complete LCTE system consists of two (2) fabricated aluminum shells;

one enclosure for the NINER Threat Emitter Payload and one enclosure for the auxiliary power solution, with four (4) access doors per shell (totaling eight doors per complete system). Work will be ordered on a recurring basis under this Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) to support an annual production tempo of approximately fifty (50) complete LCTE systems per year (estimated at 100 chassis shells and 400 access doors annually, processed in periodic batches as fabrication milestones are met).

2. Technical & Environmental Requirements

All components must receive a durable, uniform, non-porous powder coating finish designed to protect lightweight aluminum enclosures against extreme outdoor climatic elements, salt spray oxidation, and galvanic corrosion. Because LCTEs are ruggedized field units frequently loaded onto trucks, tripod-mounted, and relocated by operational personnel, the finished coating must provide superior resistance to abrasion, chipping, gouging, and transit impact wear compared to wet-applied paint systems. Additionally, the powder coating application must effectively seal chassis seams against blowing sand, dust, and moisture ingress without trapping localized condensation, ensuring long-term operational integrity and thermal management for internal high-power RF emitter electronics.
