STATEMENT OF WORK FOR THE

INSTRUMENTATION RANGE SUPPORT PROGRAM (IRSP)

1.0 SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES:

1.1 Scope: The Instrumentation Range Support Program (IRSP) contract provides serviceable components and subsystems for Instrumentation Tracking Systems (ITS), world-wide for both foreign and domestic government agencies to include radars, telemetry, optical range mission systems, Flight Termination Systems (FTS), Data Acquisition Systems (DAS), and GPS Systems.

Throughout the rest of this document any radar, telemetry, optical, FTS, DAS, GPS ITS supported by the program will be referred to as ITS. The primary purpose for this acquisition is for items of supply that include but are not limited to components and subsystems for ITS with a secondary purpose of tasks to include but not limited to obsolescence engineering and inventory Management. The extent of the effort to be accomplished within this Statement of Work (SOW) is outlined below. Each participant establishes annual support requirements with the program office.

Each participant is responsible for local configuration management. No central repository of configuration drawings is available.

1.2 Objectives: This SOW defines the contractor efforts required to meet participating ranges’ mission requirements.

2.0 GENERAL BACKGROUND: The IRSP Program Office is located at the 45th Space Wing (45 SW), Patrick AFB FL. The program office is the focal point for both the contractor and the program participants. The IRSP supports many fixed, transportable and shipboard ITS located throughout the world. Program supported ITS are included in Attachment 7. These systems, while having basic similarities, have been individually modified for the special purpose of each user's mission requirements.

There are currently 27 ranges participating in the program; including Air Force, Army, Navy, NASA, Department of Energy, as well as 6 foreign ranges, United Kingdom, Germany, Norway, Sweden, Republic of Korea, and Switzerland. The number of ranges and systems supported will fluctuate throughout the duration of this contract. Historically, the number of ranges typically fluctuates one or two, up or down. It will be necessary for the contractor to interface with other range contractors to provide support in a timely manner consistent with mission requirements.

3.0 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS: The contractor shall perform the following work in support of all participating ranges and their specific ITS listed in Attachment 7.

3.1 Phase-In (CLIN X001): The contractor shall prepare a phase-in plan to coincide with the incumbent’s phase-out plan. The phase-in plan will define the activities with a timeline detailing the methods and milestones the contractor will employ to assure all IRSP requirements are executable on Day 1 of the full period of performance. The plan should outline an orderly phase-in of support, personnel and receipt of government furnished equipment/property while beginning support to the range participants with minimal disruption of essential functions. A designated government representative will oversee the transfer of goods. The phase-in plan must work in conjunction with the incumbent’s phase-out plan. The phase-in period shall be during the last 90 days of the current IRSP contract. During this time, the incoming contractor shall interface with the incumbent staff to understand work flows, develop labor mixes, and ensure a smooth exchange of all GFP.

3.2 Inventory and Program Management (CLIN X002)

3.2.1 Inventory Management: The contractor shall provide inventory management of approximately 1.4 million government-owned parts, in an access controlled contractor furnished facility/facilities, as well as all government owned parts tools/test equipment, major hardware, technical data support packages, and software support packages. The contractor shall maintain an automated controlled access inventory of materials. The inventory will consist of those government-owned materials remaining from the previous contract and those specific items added under this contract from stock replenishment or other actions.

The contractor shall verify that appropriate stock levels for all depot items are maintained during inventory management. Depot stock levels also include expendable material required to support material acquisition, overhaul support, component remanufacture, fabrication and bench stock, to include common bench stock. Bench Stock includes, but is not limited to, materials such as common hardware, paint, compounds, fabrics, raw stock, and other miscellaneous common supplies. Prior to any stock being deleted from inventory or turned in for disposal, the contractor must identify those items to the program office and receive approval prior to taking any disposition actions. During contract performance, the contractor may recommend additional inventory that the government may need. No additional equipment will be acquired without adequate funding and approval from the program office where further approval is indicated within the SOW. CDRLs B001 and B002

3.2.1.1 High Cost Tube Management: The contractor shall develop and maintain a management plan to ensure availability of long-lead high-cost tubes.
