Reliability, Availability and Maintainability Design Requirements The Contractor shall design the CLP X-Ray System to meet the Reliability, Availability and Maintainability (RAM) requirements for Inherent Availability (Ai) and Operational Availability (Ao) (see section 4.6). The following are minimum requirements for these systems.
Basic System Reliability Requirements – Inherent Availability (Ai) The CLP X-Ray System and all of its components shall be designed to operate satisfactorily at a given point in time when used under the stated conditions in the environment described in this SOW. Ai excludes logistics time, waiting or administrative downtime, and preventative maintenance downtime. Ai includes corrective maintenance downtime. Inherent availability is generally derived from analysis of an engineering design and is calculated as the mean time between failures (MTBF) divided by the MTBF plus the mean time to repair (MTTR).
The Inherent System Availability for each serialized system shall be calculated annually based on a three hundred sixty-five (365) day year. For this Ai, a minimum of 0.9900 must be achieved for each year for the entire ten (10) year life cycle for this system. The Ai is calculated using the following:
Ai = Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) _ Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) + Mean Time to Repair (MTTR)
Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) The time between failures (TBF) is the time duration from the start of when the system is placed into an ‘operational’ status until suffering a failure. A failure is defined as a malfunction that degrades performance or operational capability, which cannot be tolerated for even a brief period before correction. The total time between failure (TTBF) is the sum of all TBFs for the reporting period. The mean time between failures (MTBF) is calculated as the TTBF divided by the total number of failures for that reporting period. The overall system shall be designed to possess a MTBF of no less than one thousand (1000) hours. The Government will calculate the MTBF on an annual basis.
The MTBF for each serialized system shall be calculated annually using a three hundred sixty-five (365)-day (8760 hours) reporting period as follows:
MTBF = Total Time Between Failures (TTBF) Total Number of Failure Incidents
Mean Time to Repair (MTTR) The time to repair (TTR) is the time duration from the start of a repair activity to correct a failure until the system is returned to full performance and capability. The total time to repair (TTTR) is the sum of all TTRs for the reporting period. The mean time to repair (MTTR) is calculated as the TTTR divided by the total number of repair activities for that reporting period. The overall system shall be designed to possess a MTTR to achieve the Ai requirement. The Government will calculate the MTTR on an annual basis.
The MTTR for each serialized system shall be calculated annually using a three hundred sixty-five (365)-day (8760 hours) reporting period as follows:
MTTR = Total Time to Repair (TTTR) Total Number of Repair Activities
Life Cycle Expectation The designed operating life of the system shall be no less than ten (10) years. The system shall be capable of exceeding a normal operating period of sixteen (16) hours a day, six (6) days a week, fifty-two (52) weeks a year during an operating life of ten (10) years and be capable of surge operations consisting of twenty-four (24) hours a day, seven (7) days a week for two (2) weeks (336 hours).
Predictive Reliability, Availability, and Maintainability Analysis The Contractor shall provide predictive Obsolescence Analysis of system components and a Component Replacement Analysis in the Contractor’s format at time of quote submission, see DID A002. The Component Replacement Analysis shall include:
A. Procedures for the procurement of critical items, to include availability and procurement lead times.
B. Criteria and procedures for the design and redesign of critical items C. Procedures for controlling and monitoring of critical items after manufacture to meet the Ai and Ao requirements (e.g., date coding, traceability, assembly techniques, test requirements, acceptance test requirements, control of sub-Contractors’ and manufacturers’ controls, in-process controls, special handling, and storage requirements).

4. Item has known operating life, limited shelf life, or environmental sensitivity (e.g., vibration, thermal, etc.) that warrants controlled surveillance.
5. Item whose failure can result in the failure of the system and which is not compensated by redundancy or alternate operational procedures
Control of Reliability Critical Items The Contractor shall be responsible for the control and Quality Control (Contractor shall address in DID number A012 Quality Assurance/Quality Control Plan) of critical items, which shall include at a minimum:
1. Procedures for the procurement of, and availability of, spares of critical items
2. Criteria and procedures for the design and redesign of critical items
3. Procedures for controlling and monitoring of critical items after manufacture (e.g., date coding, traceability, assembly techniques, test requirements, acceptance test requirements, control of sub-contractors' and manufacturers' controls, in-process controls, special handling and storage requirements).
Corrosion Control The Contractor shall apply corrosion control techniques and measures to mitigate and correct corrosion of the system. The Contractor shall visually inspect the equipment for signs of corrosion. The Contractor shall apply best industry standards and practices to remove corrosion or replace parent material, properly treat and prepare surfaces for painting, and apply a color-matched finish and prevent future corrosion.
Quality Assurance/Quality Control Plan The Contractor shall provide a Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) plan based on the most current and applicable certified ISO processes and procedures. The Contractor’s QA/QC plan shall define key performance measures to include traceable metrics, verifiable performance standards, and address risk identification and mitigation processes used to meet the performance requirements in this SOW.
The Contractor shall provide a QA/QC Plan in accordance with DID A012.
Testing The Contractor shall prepare and submit an Acceptance Test Plan (ATP) in accordance with the attached DID A013. The Contractor shall perform inspections and tests necessary to ensure that CLP X-Ray Systems conform to CBP approved technical documentation and configuration, to include operational testing of the first article delivery. Using the approved ATP, the Contractor shall conduct verification and validation tests to ensure the system meets all performance requirements and to verify it can be operated as specified in the system’s Operator’s Manual (DID A008). Additional Contractor testing requirements, if applicable, are identified in the performance Section 3.2 (see Appendix A) of this SOW. The Contractor shall provide the test articles as defined in ANSI N42.46, Chapter 4, to perform this level of testing.
Factory Testing A CBP team shall conduct a CBP Factory Test (FT) of all systems at the Contractor’s facility in accordance with the ATP (DID A013) to verify that the system is suitable for shipment to its intended deployment location, including proper assembly, functionality, and operation. The CBP team will conduct an FT in accordance with a CBP FT Plan for all systems. The Contractor shall provide the appropriate test articles for the CBP team in support of the FT.
Site Acceptance Testing A CBP team will conduct a CBP Site Acceptance Test (SAT) for each system at its designated deployment location. The CBP team will conduct the CBP SAT in accordance with a CBP SAT Plan (SATP) for CLP X-Ray system. The CBP SAT shall consist of a review of the Contractor’s pre-SAT documentation and Radiation Survey/Leak Test Report (DID A015), plus an inventory and physical inspection of the system, system component operations and tests of the total integrated system against actual targets. The Contractor shall be required to provide test articles for the SAT as determined by the SATP or the Test Director. This allows CBP to verify that the system has not been physically damaged nor performance impacted due to transport of the system. The CBP SAT will not occur until the Contractor has trained the SAT team members on the SATP, no later than 7 days before the SAT date.
Discrimination Testing In the absence of an ANSI for Material Discrimination, the CBP team will test the following characteristics, using the following or similar test fixtures. Two characteristics must be demonstrated.
The first characteristic is the system’s ability to differentiate and identify the three categories of material (organic, intermediate, and metallic) from each other as a function of color when they are placed in close proximity to one another. The materials suggested are HDPE, Aluminum (Al), Steel, and Lead (Pb). The materials used shall all have the same attenuation, which can be between 20X and 50X. The test fixture used should be able to hold at least two plates of each material. The CBP team will determine success based on the number of plates where at least 50% of the surface is the correct color. Twelve scans will be required and 90% of the plates must display the proper color.
The second characteristic to be demonstrated is the system’s attenuation range for two of the materials. For a three material category system, the two materials used shall be HDPE and Steel. For a four material category system, the two materials used can be either HDPE & Steel or Al & Pb. There shall be at least 7 different thicknesses (steps) of each material. One step shall be so thin that the system cannot properly identify the material and therefore it appears gray. One other step shall be so thick that the system cannot properly identify the material and therefore it appears black. All the other steps shall vary in color intensity as a function of their thickness (the thicker the step, the more intense the color). Success is based on the number of steps where at least 75% of the surface is the correct color intensity. Twelve (12) scans will be required and 90% of the steps must display the proper color intensity.
System Safety Program The Contractor shall maintain a system safety program that continually identifies all hazards and provides a methodology to either eliminate or control these identified hazards.

The Contractor shall ensure that any movement or shifting that may be associated with shipping will not produce or lead to emission leaks from cracks, stress or misalignment of the structures and shielding devices that are either associated with the primary beam containment or scatter containment scheme.
Radiological Survey and Report The Contractor shall be required to conduct a radiological survey prior to system delivery to ensure that radiation emissions are within specified limits. Each system delivered shall be accompanied with a report of the radiological survey performed on the system, signed by the Contractor’s Radiation Safety Officer. This survey will address both the radiation levels to which system operators will be exposed while at their workstations and the level of radiation that is transmitted to the environment as a result of system leakage. The report shall show this information by means of an outline drawing the levels of emission/scatter radiation measured, the ‘worst case’ operating conditions (i.e., highest energy level, slowest scan speed, greatest scatter range) and the measurement equipment used. The Contractor shall provide a radiological survey report and a Radiation Survey Report or Leak Test Report as applicable in accordance with the attached DID A015 for each system delivered.
Annual Radiation Survey and Report The Contractor shall perform Radiation Surveys at the time of delivery site prior to site acceptance that contain radiation emitting devices (X-Ray systems). The X-ray systems shall be in compliance with 21 CFR 1020.31, Radiographic Equipment, (a) Control and indication of technique factors (energy, time, and amperage) and (b) Reproducibility (ability of device to produce consistent radiation doses). The Contractor shall provide a radiation survey report to the NII Operations Center within forty-eight (48) hours of completion. A representative/sample Radiation Survey Report shall be submitted with the quote and each Site Acceptance Test in accordance with DID A015.
