SECTION I – DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES

1.0 GENERAL

1.1 Scope:

This Performance-Based Contract includes on-site, Afghanistan, activities required to maintain safe, reliable aircraft for use by United States (US) Air Advisors and the Afghan Air Force (AAF).

Afghanistan is an austere location and contractors should not expect full Continental United States

(CONUS)-style accommodations. This contract also identifies services and establishes activities required for logistics, maintenance, technical order library/management, supply chain management, and maintenance training to support daily operations of C-208B Light Lift aircraft, one (1) C-208B

Aircrew Training Device (ATD), and one (1) Maintenance Training Device (MTD). These services and activities shall commence on the 91 st day after contract award through the end of the period of performance (PoP). This contract also includes the requirement for the contractor to train and qualify the AAF to perform the contractor’s assigned functions. The contractor shall train the AAF, via fully documented skill-level training and accompanying apprenticeship requirements, in:

transitioning/standing-up logistics, supply chain management, technical order library and management, and maintenance capabilities to maintain airworthy aircraft and out-year sustainment capabilities.

1.2 Contract Objective:

Train, Advise, Assist Command-Air (TAAC-Air), in support of the AAF, requires this contract to provide Contractor Logistics Support (CLS) and maintenance training activities capable of supporting 24 Cessna C-208B aircraft, and an option for CLS on one (1) C-208B ATD at Hamid

Karzai International Airport (HKIA). This contract’s end state is to train the AAF such that they are self-sufficient in the operations and maintenance tasks included in this contract such that the USG is capable of transitioning maintenance responsibility of the aircraft to the AAF. The contractor shall provide Dari interpreters to facilitate effective communications with the AAF in order to achieve this contract’s objective.

The following assumptions should be used to evaluate the size of this effort.

NOTE: Table reflects contract award fleet responsibility numbers. This will change during the execution of the contract as aircraft maintenance responsibility transitions to the AAF.

1.2.1 Responsibility of aircraft maintenance and related support activities will be gradually turned over to the AAF. This decision will be based on the attainment of the appropriate mixed skill level cadre (Level 3, 2, 1) of trained Afghan maintainers. The USG, with TAAC-Air coordination, will determine the point at which this cadre of Afghan maintainers has been established. Aircraft responsibility transition determinations will be based on the achieved AAF organic maintenance capabilities. It is intended that all assets specified above will be the responsibility of the AAF at the end of the CLS program.

1.2.2 Operational Flying Schedule: This Operational Flying Schedule only applies to the

Contractor-Responsible fleet. The contractor shall provide the following non-exhaustive list of services and items to meet the Utilization (UTE) Rate schedule depicted below: maintenance personnel, computer equipment, software, spares, GSE, special tools, and equipment. The contractor shall provide services during normal flying and maintenance operations, and on-call services.

Contractor-Responsible aircraft will be maintained to an 80% Fully Mission Capable (FMC) rate.

UTE Rate Calculation: Multiply the average number of monthly flight hours per aircraft for the fleet by the number of months in the PoP, and then multiply that number by the number of aircraft in the

Contractor-Responsible fleet to determine total annual flying hours.

UTE Rate Calculation Example: Base Period Monthly Avg. (40) X # of months in Base Period (9)

X a/c in the fleet (18) = 6,480 hours per year.

Base Period: The contractor shall provide the aforementioned services to meet a utilization rate of 6,480 hours per year. The average number of hours flown per month is 40 hours per aircraft for the fleet, but the utilization rate may not exceed 50 hours for any one (1) month.

Option Year 1: The contractor shall provide the aforementioned services to meet the UTE

Rate Calculation per year. The average number of hours flown per month is 45 hours per aircraft for the fleet, but the utilization rate may not exceed 55 hours for any one (1) month.

Option Year 2: The contractor shall provide the aforementioned services to meet the UTE

Rate Calculation per year. The average number of hours flown per month is 50 hours per aircraft for the fleet, but the utilization rate may not exceed 60 hours for any one (1) month.

Option Year 3: The contractor shall provide the aforementioned services to meet the UTE

Option Year 4: The contractor shall provide the aforementioned services to meet the UTE

1.2.2.1 The contractor shall support missions that may be conducted seven (7) days per week, 12 hours per day. The USG, via the Contracting Officer Representative (COR), reserves the right to adjust the flight schedule at any time.

3.2.6 Maintenance Performance Standard: The C-208B aircraft fleet will be maintained as follows:

3.2.6.1 Contractor-Responsible aircraft will be maintained to an 80% Fully Mission Capable

(FMC) rate.

3.2.6.1.1 FMC status is defined as: the system is capable of performing its assigned mission. FMC rate is calculated on a monthly, fleet-wide basis. The fleet will be in FMC status for at least 80% of total reporting time, excluding any AAF-Responsible aircraft, aircraft undergoing O&A repairs authorization process, or aircraft being designated for maintenance training. Total Reporting Time

(TRT) is 720 hours multiplied by fleet size. Fleet size shall not include aircraft while an O&A is Not

Mission Capable Supply (NMCS) or that have been designated for maintenance training. Changes to the fleet size shall be handled on a prorated basis. No more than two (2) aircraft at any operating location shall be designated for training without concurrence of the USG. See Attachment 9 regarding FMC Rate Alleviation.

3.2.6.1.2 FMC Rate Calculation Example: Assume a fleet of 4 total aircraft. All months have 30 days for calculation purposes. Reporting time is 30 days multiplied by 24 hours per day = 720 hours. TRT is 720 multiplied by fleet size of 4 aircraft = 2880 hours. In order to meet the 80%

FMC standard, the actual hours that the fleet is in FMC status for the month would need to be 80% of TRT. (80% of 2880 = 2304 hours).
