1.0 MISSION OBJECTIVE.

The Department of Defense (DoD) Counter Narco-terrorism Program Office (CNTPO), currently being managed by the Counter Narcotics and Global Threats (CN&GT) Division was established to create worldwide counter narcotics technology networks, infrastructures, and capabilities that are focused on the detection, identification, and disruption of narcotics activities and organizations. This task effort will support the War Fighter in combating narcotics activities globally.

2.0 SCOPE.

2.1 Task Order (T/O) Objective. The objective of this T/O is to procure, ship and deliver spare Intelligence, Reconnaissance, Surveillance (ISR) components to the Government of Mexico (GOM) Army (SEDENA) in support of the Mexican Air Force (Fuerza Aerea Mexicana (FAM)) C-26 flying program.

2.2 Basic Contract PWS References. This T/O PWS establishes the requirement for the Contractor to provide support in the Basic Contract PWS (BC-PWS) task area(s) of: 4.3.2.7 Logistics Support and Equipment; 4.3.2.8 Preservation, Packing and Marking; and 4.3.3.4 Material and Equipment Purchase.

3.0 BACKGROUND AND OVERVIEW.

In 1998, FAM received four U.S. C-26 aircraft under Presidential Drawdown authority (Foreign Assistance Act, Section 506). The aircraft were initially configured (at Mexican expense) as airborne interceptors but the aircraft gradually fell into disrepair when the U.S. Department of State (DoS) ceased maintenance funding in 2008. In 2009, USNORTHCOM, DoS Office of Defense Counsel, and FAM agreed to recapitalize the aircraft into Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) platforms under DoD’s Counter Narcotics funding authority. This upgrade included ISR components, training of air and ground crews, command center improvements and training, as well as maintenance advisors, publications, spare/repair parts, and related support. ISR components procured under this T/O will be used as spare ISR components to support the four FAM aircraft.
