PR: FD2060-27-00011 PWS REVISION: 0 2
1.0 Description of Services
1.1 Objective(s): This Performance Work Statement (PWS) details the services required from the contractor/manufacturer for the repair and obsolescence mitigation of three (3) B-52 CONECT items. The contractor shall provide quality repair to ensure a serviceable “A” condition item efficiently serves its intended purpose, by the required disassembly, testing, inspection and repair. The contractor shall provide timely and accurate reporting in Commercial Asset Visibility Air Force (CAVAF), while meeting the repair Turn Around Times (TAT) of routines, SURGE, and MICAP requirements and reduce the frequency of Product Quality deficiency Reports (PQDRs). The scope of services includes evaluation, fault isolation, remove and replace, inspection, testing, repair, and packaging of the below items:
NSN 5821-01-657-6453CX PN: 7000386-19
NSN 5821-01-657-6452CX PN: 7000946-19
NSN 5821-01-664-4605CX PN: 73000053-19
1.2 Benefit to United States Air Force (USAF): This acquisition directly benefits the United States Air Force (USAF) by providing the serviceable assets necessary to sustain the B-52 CONECT system. This will ensure proper operation of CONECT components and significantly reduce Mission Incapable Awaiting Parts (MICAP) requisitions. Minimizing MICAPs is crucial, as elevated hours and backorders lead to grounded mission-capable aircraft and degrade the vital information warfighters need for successful missions.
1.3 Background: The B-52 Combat Network Communications Technology (CONECT) system provides significantly upgraded communications capabilities and crew interface. CONECT provides new infrastructure to the aircraft to incorporate integrated communications capability, in-flight conventional weapons retargeting, carrier re-tasking, improved operator interface design, and an enhanced situational awareness environment to support both nuclear and conventional delivery functions in a more efficient, versatile, and timely manner. For all mission capabilities, CONECT provides improved communications capabilities, rapid response to changing theatre circumstances, and improved crew awareness of those changes. It allows the B- 52 to receive information from several sources and provide the integrated information to the crew. It also provides interfaces for machine-to-machine communication, allowing quicker, easier, and more reliable retargeting and re-tasking.

4.9 Beyond Economic/Physical Repairs (BER)/(BPR): Beyond Economic Repair is when the estimated cost to repair an asset exceeds 75 percent of the unit’s replacement cost. Beyond Physical Repair is when the asset is physically impossible to repair, or when the damage is so extensive that restoration to a functional state is not possible with current technology or resources. The Contractor shall notify the Government of BERs and BPRs using the template located in Appendix C. The form shall be submitted to the PCO within five (5) business days of identifying the BER or BPR requirement. The Government shall review the BER and BPR requests and determine whether to fund the BER/BPR or to condemn the asset. If the Government determines to proceed with the repair of the BER or BPR assets, a request for cost proposal, required work breakout, and full repair process of assets will be provided to the Government within 15 business days. If the Government approves condemnation of the asset, the Contractor shall not charge the full repair cost, but only the price associated with the BER/BPR CLIN. The PCO retains the right to request enlarged color photographs (electronic media preferred) of any proposed condemned end item.
