STATEMENT OF WORK

FOR

AFSOC REMOTELY PILOTED AIRCRAFT OPERATIONS CENTERS

GROUND CONTROL STATION CONVERSION

CANNON AFB, NM

1. Overview

1.1. To enable the effective implementation of the designed enterprise infrastructure and as a result enable the operations of Ground Control Stations (GCSs) to interface with the MQ-1 Predator and MQ-9 Reaper weapons systems, conversion of Mobile Ground Control Stations (MGCSs) to a Fixed Ground Control Station (FGCS) configuration is required. These converted GCS units will be installed in a security- and flight-certified configuration inside building 848, in the new RPA Operations Center (ROC) at Cannon AFB, NM. The primary work areas will be within buildings 780 and 848 at Cannon AFB. Room 157 of Bldg. 848 will be provided as required to accomplish required staging activities. Due to limited space available to perform GCS conversion activities and ongoing combat mission requirements, conversions will only be performed on one MGCS at a time, with additional staging and parallel activity as authorized by government personnel.

2. GCS Conversion

2.1. The contractor will convert eight (8) existing Block 15 Mobile Ground Control Station units to Fixed Ground Control Station for Cannon AFB. Converted GCSs must contain all required SOF modifications (as documented in applicable 1067, red-line T.O., etc.) and related required components as specified by Contract Officer Representative (COR) and/or Contracting Officer (CO). The contractor will install MGCS hardware into a Fixed Facility suite and assist with all required validation of solution by coordinating re-certification thru System Program Office Detachment and other government representatives, as directed by CO or COR. This modification will be performed jointly in coordination with contracted and government sustainment and Depot-level activity support personnel. Note: The depot level activity is the entity that performs Air Force acceptance and certification of all GCS for flight operations. Contractor is responsible for integration and configuration of the converted GCS units into the larger operations center facility to the extent applicable to organizational-level authorized activities and as otherwise directed by CO or COR. Please see attachment 2 GCS Conversion Proof of Concept and List of Materials.

2.1.1. MGCS Relocation. At Cannon AFB, contractor is responsible for relocating MGCS unit from current location behind building 780, over to the designated area in building 848 prior to commencing de-integration effort.

2.1.2. MGCS de-integration. Contractor will identify, disconnect and remove all wire harnesses; fiber and cable connections, hardware components, infrastructure, and all related sub-assemblies in accordance with applicable weapon system technical orders and associated documentation. De-installation of required components from the MGCS will include (but is not limited to):

2.1.2.1. Removal of Multi-Function Workstation (MFW) racks; disconnect and remove all components, infrastructure, and line-replaceable units (LRU) from MFWs as required; and disconnect MFW rack assembly from shock mounts and remove from MGCS. Contractor must accomplish these actions for all components, to include MFW3, MFW2, MFW1, and Aux rack assembly.

2.1.2.2. Removal of Pilot/Sensor Operator (P/SO) seats, floorboards and center console/tracks.

2.1.2.3. Remove PPO1/2 CCA, foot pedal, Heads-Up Display (HUD), tracker, Keyboard Video and Mouse (KVM) switches and assemblies, and aux monitors; identify and remove all applicable wire harnesses, fiber and cable connections from PPO1; remove PPO1/2 Rack assembly.

2.1.2.4. Remove and disconnect center rack LRU's and VME's; identify and remove all associated wiring harnesses, fiber and cable connections; and remove Center Rack Assembly.

2.1.2.5. Remove remaining harnesses, fiber, cabling, and floor mounted ICU. Attach all racks to base assemblies and re-install LRU's/wiring in reverse order of removal.

2.1.3. Installation. Contractor will conduct equipment movement from conversion area and perform installation activities in the fixed-facility configuration. Placement of systems and equipment in fixed facility suites will be in accordance with specified physical configuration (see attachment 3 GCS Room Layout). Fixed configuration installation will include the re-integration of all GCS components and subcomponents as outlined in 2.1.1. Re-integration will match approved component integration as depicted in T.O. 1Q-1(M)B-2-2 and related technical specifications, and will include all special weapons system modifications as documented by the Special Programs Officer (SPO) via AF Form 1067 or authorized government personnel designated by the COR in 27 SOW/XP.

2.1.4. Configuration. With the exception of the items listed in Section 5 Government-Furnished Property (GFP) and Attachment 4- Government Furnished Materials, the contractor will acquire, install and perform all additive equipment and/or modifications as necessary to implement FGCS configuration of the GCS system, to include machining and/or other electrical and physical modification where required. Physical modifications to the GCS systems that are not already specified within technical orders and other GCS-system associated specifications must be reviewed by the COR prior to execution. The work to be performed to execute this conversion will include the procurement and installation of required assemblies and components to convert MGCS units to match current FGCS model as specified by appropriate technical instruction and related approved modifications. All applicable maintenance actions will follow T.O. 1Q-1(M) B-2-2, as well as operational check of all systems.

2.1.5. Transportation. The contractor shall provide all necessary equipment to perform the required service.

2.2. Certification. Following conversion and integration with supporting infrastructure, the contractor shall perform systems testing prior to the first flight of an aircraft to guarantee safety and ensure operational success. To demonstrate airworthiness before going operational, GCS will be qualified by acceptance test procedure (ATP) for MD-1A/B ground control station, as referenced in applicable T.O., ASI-02378, and with variances only as authorized by the government; contractor will coordinate with COR on a case-by-case basis as required. Installation and configuration activities will be in accordance with all applicable regulations and government guidance, to include but not limited to: Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) standards 1428-2004, 802.3-2012, 802.3-2008, C57.12.70-2011, and 1156.2-1996, except as waived or amended by CO and COR.

2.2.1. All contract activities must be available for inspection at all times by engineering, sustainment, operations, and security teams. Contractor will be responsible for implementing fix actions necessary to correct noted deficiencies validated by COR.; identified deficiencies will be corrected as soon as feasible, but in all cases within 5 days of notification unless otherwise coordinated with COR.

2.2.2. Contractor technical personnel must be available for configuration operational tests and system functional evaluations as required to support ad-hoc system configuration and related conversion issues, up to and including active mission operational validation.

2.3. Notice to Proceed. Due to operational need, the government may allow no more than 1 GCS system to being converted and moved at a time but more or less are possible depending on Government discretion and associated contractor agreement. Conversion of a GCS may begin once previous GCS is fully installed including peripherals and network connectivity, has successfully completed flight tests, and as coordinated with the COR. The contractor must receive a notice to proceed before they move on to converting the next GCS unit. After receiveing a notice to proceed, the contractor has two days to begin work on the next GCS unit. The limiting factor will be the number of operational GCS units, so that will be the factor used for notice to proceed. The Contracting Officer Representative (COR) in coordination with the Contracting Officer (CO) will provide the authorization needed to move the GCS being converted from their current location to the new location.
