Attachment 1 Statement of Work

SECTION I

1.0 DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES

1.1 General. This is a non-personnel services contract to design and construct load bank manifolds for avionics testing equipment at Building 1030, Edwards Air Force Base, California. The Government shall not exercise any supervision or control over the contract service providers performing the services herein. Such contract service providers shall be accountable solely to the Contractor who, in turn is responsible to the Government.

1.1.1 Overview Description of Services/Introduction. The Contractor shall provide all management, personnel, equipment, supplies, facilities, transportation, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and non-personal services necessary to design and construct load bank manifolds for avionics testing equipment at Building 1030 as defined in this Statement of Work except for those items specified as Government furnished property and services. The Contractor shall perform to the standards in this contract. This includes the planning, coordination, and surveillance of the activities necessary to ensure disciplined work performance and timely resources application to accomplish all tasking under the contract. The Contractor shall be responsible for maintaining communication with the Contracting Officer (CO) and the government customer, and to immediately notify both the CO and the customer of any problems that would prevent timely performance of this contract. The Contractor is responsible for and required to implement, and maintain management control systems necessary to plan, organize, direct, and control all activities under this contract.

1.2 Background. The 412 EWG Site Support Division requires liquid cooling (PAO, EGW and Coolanol) aircraft devices built to be connected in the Anechoic Chamber to simulate aircraft pressure drops while operating existing liquid cooling systems. This will negate the need to move existing system cooling carts into the Chamber to perform various operational and maintenance procedures.

1.3 Inherently Governmental Function. The Contractor shall not perform Inherently Governmental functions as defined in FAR Subpart 7.5 in relationship to this SOW.

1.4 Period of Performance. 1 Aug 2018 - 30 Oct 2018 (90 days)

1.5 Place of Performance. The contractor shall perform the services in the Statement of Work at Building 1030, Edwards Air Force Base, California.

1.6 Specific Tasks.

1.6.1 General Description.

1.6.1.1 Contractor shall build three independent devices to indicate pressure and flow of PAO, EGW and

Coolanol fluid inside of the Anechoic Chamber on the turntable. The devices shall be constructed to be lightweight as possible to allow system transport to be hand carried by personnel as needed for utilization. Site survey will be required for the contractor to validate and verify the exact quick disconnects to be installed, address build design concept and integration components required to interface with the existing Simatec PLC.

1.6.2 Build Requirements

1.6.2.1 Contractor shall build each of the fluid devices to indicate pressure and flow digitally, connect with the applicable fluid quick disconnect (QD), have adjustable pressure drop and isolation, and integrate with the existing Simatec PLC.

Attachment 1 Statement of Work

1.6.2.2 Below is a generic list of probable required components.

Quick Disconnect for applicable fluid “IN” Quick Disconnect for applicable fluid “OUT” 2 manual valves to be installed at the inlet and outlet for isolation and pressure drop adjustments Digital Pressure Display Digital Flow Display Required plumbing and miscellaneous assembly hardware Required electrical connection/termination hardware

1.7 Minimum Qualifications.

Construction of the required load bank manifolds must be performed by personnel with at least five years of experience performing maintenance and design of similar hydraulic operated systems. An understanding and experience performing work on similar systems is required as these units must operate seamlessly with highly unique pieces of precision test equipment. Failure to correctly build and test this system without negatively impacting the units to which they will be connected could result in USAF inability to support national test requirements.

1.8 Deliverables.

1.8.1 Below is a list of deliverables under this contract.

Support Area Title Delivery Date/Description

Training Operations Training (on-site) Immediately following system build

System Design Model w/dimensions

Design Drawings Prior to system build (CAD or similar format)

As Builts As Built Drawings NLT 10 days after installation completion

Hardware Specifications (Cut Sheets, model numbers, tolerances, etc.)

Component Listing Prior to system build

1.8.2 Data. The Government has unlimited rights to all deliverables of this contract.

1.8.3 Inspection. Deliverables will be inspected by the Government upon completion of work, prior to final acceptance. Progress meetings will be held as required.

1.9 Small Business Subcontracting Program (Small Business Utilization) When subcontracting opportunities exist, any Contractor receiving a contract award valued for more than the simplified acquisition threshold, shall submit a subcontracting plan for small business, small disadvantaged businesses, HUBZones, women-owned small businesses, service disabled veteran owned small businesses, veteran-owned small businesses, Historically Black Colleges and Universities and Minority Institutions, and Alaska Native Corporations and Indian Tribes. (A subcontracting plan is not required if there are no subcontracting opportunities, for contracts awarded to a small business, for personal services contracts or contracts performed entirely outside the US and outlying areas.) The plan shall contain goals for each of the categories, as well as 10 other elements identified (11 total) in FAR 19.704 and FAR Clause 52.219-9. This rating element assesses the contractor's performance in meeting the requirements of the plan and achievements against his negotiated goals. The contractor may use one of three types of plans: Subcontracting plan, commercial plan (for commercial items), and the DoD comprehensive (test) plan. (See FAR 19.704, 52.219-9 for additional guidance.) An Individual Subcontracting Report (ISR) shall be submitted semi-annually during contract performance for the periods ending March 31 and September 30. Reports are due 30 days after the close of each

Attachment 1 Statement of Work reporting period, unless otherwise directed by the Contracting Officer. A report is also required for each contract within 30 days of contract completion. Summary Subcontract Reports (SSR), including those submitted for comprehensive subcontracting plans under the DoD Small Business Subcontracting Plan (Test Program), shall be submitted semi-annually for the six months ending March 31 and the twelve months ending September 30.

Reports are due 30 days after the close of each reporting period. For commercial plans, a Summary Subcontract Report (SSR) is due 30 days after the end of the Government's fiscal year. For the CPARS rating, the Government will use the most recent ISR and/or SSR that the Contractor submitted and will not delay the evaluation if the rating period is different than the subcontracting reporting period.
