1.0 PROJECT OVERVIEW

1.1 SCOPE

The scope of this Performance Work Statement (PWS) shall provide engineering services of various task requirements for continued technical and engineering support toward the sustainment of all configurations of the A-10 and weapon system. This document identifies those tasks and activities required to fulfill this role. This requirement will be an Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) requirement with a five year ordering period.

1.2 BACKGROUND

The A-10 aircraft is an aging weapon system that is technically complex. As a result, field-level problems relating to engineering deficiencies are often generated, requesting engineering support. This requires system level assessment, sustainment evaluation, and problem resolution expertise beyond what is available in the A-10 System Program Office (SPO). Using commands (such as Air Combat Command, Air Force Reserve Command, and Air National Guard) depend on A-10 engineering to analyze any system deficiency, develop repair procedures, and recommend alternative solutions for operational and maintenance related support issues regarding aircraft systems, products, and materials in a timely manner. This effort includes evaluating and testing of aircraft systems to determine if problems exist that are due to aging, obsolescence, sustainment, bad maintenance practices, or component failure issues.

Appendix C – Safety

1. Environmental, Safety, And Occupational Health (ESOH): The Contractor is solely responsible for compliance with all federal, state, and local laws, the Occupational Safety and Health Act (Public Law 91-596) and the resulting standards (OSHA Standards 29 CFR 1910 and 1926), as applicable, and the protection of their employees. Additionally, the Contractor is responsible for the safety and health of all subcontractor employees.

2. Voluntary Protection Programs (VPP): The Air Force is part of OSHA’s VPP. All contractors are required to familiarize themselves with the requirements of VPP. Information on VPP can be accessed at http://www.osha.gov. The intent of the Air Force Safety Program is to prevent injuries and to communicate our safety expectations with potential offerors as well as those contractors awarded a Government contract. The Air Force’s interest is to protect personnel working in or around contractor operations, and to protect Air Force equipment/property.

3. Contractor Employees: Compliance with OSHA and other applicable laws and regulations for the protection of contractor employees is exclusively the obligation of the Contractor. Note:

Air Force Occupational Safety and Health Standards (AFI’s) are annotated because many of the Air Force Standards exceed the OSHA standard criteria. If a conflict is noted, the most stringent requirement takes precedence. The Government shall assume no liability or responsibility for the Contractor's compliance or non-compliance with such requirements. The Contractor shall furnish to each of his/her employees a place of employment, which is free from recognized hazards. The Contractor shall brief his/her employees on the safety requirements of this contract and on hazards associated with prescribed tasks. The Contractor is responsible for compliance with OSHA Public Law and the resultant standards identified within. In addition, the Contractor is required to flow down the safety requirements/specification to all subcontractors. This applies to Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 12 commercial acquisitions as well. This contract shall in no way require persons to work in surroundings or under working conditions which are unsafe or dangerous to their health. The Contractor must coordinate and perform work so as not to impact the safety of Government employees or cause damage to Government property. This requires providing personnel with protective equipment and associated safety equipment as may be necessary. The Contractor must also protect personnel from hazards generated by the work.

If the Contractor employs bilingual speaking employees, they must post bilingual signs and have written procedures for specific tasks in applicable languages.

4. Inspections: Air Force Environmental, Safety, Occupational Health and Fire protection officials or responsible Quality Assurance Evaluator (QAE) may periodically enter a contractor’s workplace to verify working conditions of Air Force personnel. If an Air Force employee observes improper procedures or unsafe conditions exits which place Air Force personnel or equipment/facilities in jeopardy, the Contractor will remove personnel and/or equipment from the unsafe condition and immediately notify the Contracting Officer and the Installation Safety Office. Department of Labor (DoL), OSHA inspectors are authorized right of entry to inspect any place of employment operated by an Air Force contractor. They can be considered “no notice” inspections. Noncompliance with safety requirements can result in work stoppage, inexcusable delays, and/or costly fines issued by the DoL. The Government shall assume no

Fines and additional costs for violations levied against the Contractor as a result of OSHA findings, and/or installation safety, fire, health or environmental are the sole responsibility of the Contractor and shall not be passed through to the Government.
