1.1 SCOPE:

The Avionics Intermediate Shop (AIS) Systems Sustainment Program, located in the 416 Supply Chain Management Squadron (SCMS), is responsible for ensuring the operational capability of AIS Systems worldwide through the sustainment of Automatic Test Equipment (ATE) components contained within the Advanced Computer Avionics Intermediate Shop (AdC AIS), Improved Avionics Intermediate Shop (IAIS), Versamodule Extensions for Instrumentation Improved Avionics Intermediate Shop (VXI-IAIS), and Rackmount Improved Avionics Intermediate Shop (R-IAIS) test stations. These test station components are vital to the overall health of AIS ATE located throughout seven (7) United States Air Force (USAF) Major Commands (MAJCOMs), Hill Air Force Base Depot locations (to include Support Center Pacific), and approximately 22 European Participating Air Force (EPAF) / Foreign Military Sales (FMS) countries worldwide. AIS components are sustained by obtaining vital services required to maintain ATE Full Mission Capability in support of F-16 weapon system requirements.

This Performance Work Statement (PWS) identifies and subsequently defines the services required to sustain components contained within the AIS series of test stations. The identified services/activities are to be provided by BAE Systems, Information and Electronic Systems Integration Inc., San Diego, CA; hereafter referred to as “BAE” or “the contractor”. Services to be provided include ATE Commodity Sustaining Engineering, Component Software Integration and Maintenance, and ATE Maintenance of Government Furnished Equipment/Property located at contractor facilities.

1.1.1 ATE Commodity Sustaining Engineering encompasses contract engineering efforts to resolve technical and/or supportability deficiencies for ATE components that are revealed during operational service. It includes, but is not limited to, assessing component deficiency indicators, defining the characteristics and cause(s) of such component deficiencies, determining the impact on the appropriate AIS System(s); identifying and evaluating alternative solutions; determining the preferred solution(s); and designing, integrating, and validating the preferred solution(s) approved by the Government. This effort includes all associated contractual efforts (e.g., component hardware/software maintenance, technical studies, analysis, field assistance, commodity concept/development engineering; regression and integration testing; updating technical data, etc.) which are integral to sustaining ATE components and maintaining AIS ATE in a state of operational readiness to meet F-16 weapon system requirements.

1.1.2 The contractor shall provide Software Integration and Maintenance tasks required to integrate ATE components into F-16 IAIS, VXI-IAIS, and R-IAIS Control & Support (C&S) and Self-Test Software. This includes the integration of ancillary Support Equipment to ensure ATE software meets operational requirements in support of F-16 avionics testing and repair. The contractor shall perform investigation of anomalies and implementation of software changes required to sustain the components contained within F-16 ATE, to include the IAIS, VXI-IAIS, and R-IAIS.

In order to ensure testing integrity, compatibility, and Configuration Management compliance, with no degradation to ATE configurations, the contractor shall coordinate with the 516 SMXS on deficiency resolutions that affect components common to the IAIS, VXI-IAIS, and R- IAIS test station configurations.

1.1.3 This PWS defines the contractor tasks required to perform maintenance activities for the F-16 AIS Government Furnished Equipment / Government Furnished Property (GFE/GFP) provided to BAE Systems in support of AIS System Sustainment Program requirements.

1.1.3.1 These maintenance activities are essential to ensuring the operational capability of F-16 ATE located in Fort Worth, Texas, and San Diego, California, respectively.
