C.1. INTRODUCTION

C.1.1 Purpose This Statement of Work (SOW) defines the requirements for the Contractor to deliver Emergency Transceiver (ET) equipment in accordance with (IAW) Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) ET Product Specification (FAA-E-7868) in Section J01.

The purpose of the Emergency Transceiver Replacement (ETR) contract is to provide emergency air/ground communication capability for air traffic control (ATC) operations during catastrophic failure of the normal radio communication system. Communication failure might be experienced during loss of ATC facility power, or the failure of the inter/intra facility connectivity to the air/ground radio communications equipment. ET also provides emergency radio communication when a facility must be abandoned, e.g., in the event of facility fire, bomb threat, or severe weather.

The ET provides the air/ground communication capability during the first critical 60 minutes after these events occur. The ET will replace the existing grab-n-go Transceiver Communications Equipment (TCE) at all Air Traffic Control Towers (ATCTs), Terminal Radar Approach Control (TRACONs), and Alaskan Flight Service Stations (FSSs).

C.1.2 Scope The ETR contract scope encompasses all necessary equipment, software, documentation, and Contractor services required to replace existing emergency transceivers. Contractor services include warranty and repair, contract and program management, configuration management, integrated logistics support, bar code and asset tracking, support of Government testing activities, development of maintenance/operator training, support of Government spares provisioning and maintenance program, Quick Reference Guide installation into all ETR kits, and other required services necessary for the implementation, maintenance, and operation of the emergency transceivers.

The scope of the Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract encompasses acquisition of future emergency communications equipment and services required during catastrophic failure of the normal radio communications systems or during emergency facility abandonment. Such additional equipment/services and their associated performance specifications would be determined as these requirements are identified. In addition, the ET equipment, software, and services may be ordered to support Department of Transportation (DOT) requirements, other FAA Program Offices, and other Government agencies, as needed.

The Final Breakdown Structure is developed by sequencing all parts comprising the end item in a lateral and descending family tree/generation breakdown. This breakdown must consist of the end item, including all components, listing every assembly, subassembly, and parts, which can be disassembled, reassembled/replaced. All parts are listed in their relation to the end item, component, assembly, or installation system in which they are contained and to their own further sub-subassemblies and parts. This relationship is shown by means of an indenture code. The Final Breakdown Structure shows the relationship of all items to one another. The Contractor must update the breakdown structure during the Government’s audits (FCA and combined PCA/PC). After the PCA, the Contractor must deliver the Final Breakdown Structure (CDRL-L003) to the Government for approval.

C.3.6.7 Tools and Test Equipment List (T&TEL)

The Contractor must prepare and deliver to the Government a list of all the tools and test equipment (CDRL-L004), both common and special, that are not an integral part of the ET but are required to inspect, test, calibrate, service, and repair them. This list must include only the tools and test equipment required to perform authorized site maintenance tasks (e.g., fault isolation and replacement to the LRU level). The Contractor must ensure that the T&TEL data on the list agrees with the T&TEL information contained in ETR technical documentation, e.g., the technical instruction book.
