1. Introduction

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Civil Aerospace Medical Institute (CAMI), Protection & Survival Research Lab (AAM-630) conducts research studies of materials, structures, components, aircraft configurations, and passenger safety, as they relate to aircraft crashworthiness and survival issues. This research supports FAA flight plan goals for Aviation Safety, International Leadership and Organizational Excellence. To meet the above goals, AAM-630’s Biodynamic Research Team conducts dynamic impact tests of aircraft seats and restraints using Government owned Anthropomorphic Test Devices (ATD) (AKA: Crash Test Dummies) and sensors. Each test has the possibility of damaging or destroying test dummies and critical sensors. The ATDs and instrumentation must be properly maintained to provide valid data.

This SOW will be reviewed as required, generally annually, to update requirements as needed. Items will be procured as AAM-630 deems necessary and dependent on the availability of Government funds for ongoing yearly projects.

2. Scope of Work

The objective of this requirement is to establish a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) against which orders can be placed for ATDs, Sensors, Spare Parts, Supplies/Ancillary Small Parts, Repair, Maintenance, Modification, Calibration and Training services and all related transportation/shipping and handling. The services and parts provided shall be those required to support the entire range of ATD models and associated instrumentation used to conduct AAM-630’s research.

3. Requirement CAMI’s Biodynamic Research Team has an annual requirement for a Blanket Purchase Agreement to acquire parts, service, and shipping as described below. The parts and services available to order shall be those required to support the entire range of ATD models and associated sensors used to conduct AAM-630’s research. Interested and capable parties must provide the government requirements for ATD, critical sensors and other related parts and services derived from damaged ATD and/or ancillary parts. The contractor shall maintain ISO 9001, ISO 17025, A2LA, or other approved accreditation throughout the term of the contract and perform all service, produce all parts, and conduct all calibrations provided under this contract in accordance with these standards.

3. Quoted Parts and Service:

The Contractor shall provide ATDs, sensors, replenishment spares and perform calibration, repair, modification, and training services for Government equipment in accordance with Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) technical specifications, or FAA approved specifications. After receipt of a written order from the designated Government Point of Contact (POC), provide items, or perform the services, listed in Attachment I (or a revision thereto) for the cost cited. The hourly rate for services shall not exceed the rate cited in Attachment I.

3. Services: Upon receipt of Government owned assets, the Contractor shall initiate inspection/evaluation and if additional parts and services are needed to repair the item (beyond those specified in the written order), provide costs to complete the repair. The Contractor must receive a written authorization from the designated (POC) to proceed before these additional services are rendered in accordance with the BPA.

3. Calibration: Upon receipt of an item for calibration, the Contractor shall determine whether the item is serviceable and if so, whether its performance as received is within tolerance. Provide a statement reflecting the item’s as-received status. If the item requires any repairs or rework the Contractor shall provide costs to complete the service. The Contractor must receive a written authorization from the designated (POC) to proceed before these additional services are rendered in accordance with the BPA. For all calibrated items the contractor shall provide evidence that the item’s accuracy or performance is traceable to National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) measurement references.

3. Parts and Services Not Quoted The Contractor shall provide ATDs, instrumentation, replenishment spares and perform calibration, repair, and modification services for Government equipment in accordance with Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) technical specifications. Provide items or perform the services as required to support the entire range of ATD models and associated sensors used to conduct AAM-630’s research. Upon receipt of a written order for parts or services not specifically listed in Attachment I, the Contractor shall provide the cost for the parts and service. The hourly rate for services shall not exceed the rate cited in Attachment I. The Contractor must receive a written authorization from the designated (POC) to proceed before beginning work to fulfill that order.

3. Services: Upon receipt of Government owned assets, the Contractor shall initiate inspection/evaluation and provide costs to complete the service. The Contractor must receive a written authorization from the designated (POC) to proceed before these services are rendered in accordance with the BPA.

3. Calibration: Upon receipt of an item for calibration, the Contractor shall determine whether the item is serviceable and provide the cost for the calibration and any repairs or rework necessary. The Contractor must receive a written authorization from the designated (POC) to proceed before these services are rendered in accordance with the BPA. After receiving authorization, the Contractor shall determine whether its performance as-received is within tolerance and provide a statement reflecting the item’s as-received status. If during the calibration process it is determined that the item requires repairs or rework, the Contractor shall provide the costs to complete the service. The Contractor must receive a written authorization from the designated (POC) to proceed before these additional services are rendered in accordance with the BPA. For all calibrated items the contractor shall provide evidence that the item’s accuracy or performance is traceable to National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) measurement references, and meets SAE J211-1, SAE J2570, or ISO 6487 standards as applicable.

3. Shipping and Handling Charges The Contractor will be reimbursed for normal Shipping/Handling of all Government Assets outlined within this Statement of Work. The Government may request expedited return of assets requiring mutual consent and written authorization between Government and the Contractor.

4. Place of Performance:

Services may be performed at the FAA Civil Aerospace Medical Institute (CAMI) or FAA’s OEM Facilities.

These locations include:

TBD based on interested and capable market survey respondent.

5. Government Responsibility The Government will coordinate with the Contractor to establish a Repair Maintenance Agreement (RMA) number prior to shipping any/all Government owned assets for calibration and repair.

6. Deliverables The Contractor must certify to the FAA, with supporting documentation, that each part supplied was manufactured in compliance with the current manufacturers’ specifications, or FAA approved specifications, and that each service supplied was accomplished in accordance with the current manufacturers’ specifications, manuals, operating specification, or FAA approved specifications for repair/modification/calibration. In addition, for calibrated items, the Contractor shall provide evidence that the item’s accuracy or performance is traceable to National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) measurement references, and meets SAE J211-1, SAE J2570, or ISO 6487 standards as applicable.
