1.0 Description of Services

Objective(s): This Performance Work Statement (PWS) describes the services required for the depot level repair of the AN/AAQ-24(V) Large Aircraft Infrared Counter Measure (LAIRCM) system’s items and other components as indicated in Section 6, Appendix B of this document. The extent of repair work required shall be determined by the initial inspection/bench check, required disassembly and repair to return this item to a serviceable end item that shall efficiently serve its intended purpose. Original design of the end item and parts thereof, or the design functional capabilities of the end item, shall not be changed, modified or altered unless such changes are authorized in writing by the Procurement Contracting Officer (PCO) or specified by publication or directive listed in the Appendix. The contractor shall repair and return assets to the Government in serviceable condition while meeting the delivery schedule for all requirements. All CAV-AF and CAV Navy transactions shall be promptly and correctly maintained. This acquisition consolidates repair requirements into a single, long-term contract in order to provide significantly improved delivery times (i.e., production lead-time) which results in increased availability and lower total cost.

1.2 Benefit to United States Air Force (USAF) and others: This acquisition will benefit multiple DoD components and Foreign Military Sales (FMS) customers by providing repair support to AN/AAQ-24(V) LAIRCM system and Line Replaceable Units (LRUs) currently installed on multiple platforms by ensuring that the DoD components and FMS customers included in this effort maintain a mission capable status allowing for increased availability and flexibility.

1.3 Background: The intended purpose is to support the AN/AAQ-24(V) LAIRCM system program for which Northrop Grumman Corporation is the sole source contractor. The program is designed to protect aircraft from Man-Portable Air Defense Systems, also called MANPADs as well as other enemy initiated threats to the aircraft. Per Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) Aircraft Survivability Equipment (ASE) Acquisition Decision Memorandum (ADM), signed by Under Secretary of Defense for AT&L, John J. Young, 15 April 2009, the USAF is responsible for providing AN/AAQ-24(V) LAIRCM system components for all U.S. military services.Northrop Grumman is the lead designer, developer, integrator and producer of the AN/AAQ-24(V) LAIRCM system used by all DOD Components and several foreign allies. The 408 Supply Chain Management Squadron (SCMS) currently uses contract number FA8522-18-D-0002 to repair the AN/AAQ-24(V) LAIRCM system through Northrop Grumman Defense System (NGDS) . This contract is a 5 year, sole source, firm fixed price and cost reimbursement strategic contract issued to NGDS with an estimated contract ceiling of $500M; this contract expires on 14 Dec 2022. The total estimated cost for all DOD components and FMS customers Best Estimated Quantities (BEQs) for all ordering periods (escalated at 3% per year) was compiled using requirement data for all part number variants for each specified National Stock Number (NSN).

2.0 Services Summary:

Repairable assets covered by the Government and Contractor agreement delivered to the contractor facility will include any Depot Level Repairable (DLR) in any condition. Upon receipt of material, the contractor is to compare the quantity of units and the National Item Identification Number (NIIN) of the item inside the container to the quantity and NIIN on the DD Form 1348-1A document that accompanies the material. There may be multiple DD Form 1348-1A documents with the material. The appropriate DD Form 1348-1A to compare to is the one that reflects the material being shipped to the repair facility. Any discrepancies in quantity or NIIN must be reported in accordance with the most current CAV Navy Statement of Work (SOW). For units that have been repaired and are Ready for Issue (“A” condition) –

a. Contact the Government Quality Assurance Representative to schedule an on-site visit for inspection/acceptance of the material including signature of the DD250, which is required for payment purposes.

b. Affix two copies of the DD Form 1348-1A to the outside of the shipment container and place one copy inside the container.
