MH-65E CAAS and AFCS Component Purchases (Multiple) STATEMENT OF WORK (SOW)

1.0 General

1.1 Scope. A requirement exists for the United States Coast Guard (USCG) to purchase aircraft parts (production and spares) to produce and sustain its fleet of 98 MH-65E Short Range Recovery (SRR) helicopters. The parts required are Common Avionics Architecture System (CAAS) components, VOR/ARN-147 navigation radios and Automatic Flight Control System servos. The contractor shall manufacture and deliver the required quantities of the components listed in Section 6 of this document consisting of commercial hardware to meet the requirements of this contract. Integrated logistical support service and engineering support services are to be provided under the current Performance Based Logistics (PBL) contract.

1.2 Background. The Discrete Segment 6 (DS6), phase of the H-65 Conversion/Sustainment Program (approved on August 14, 2009) authorizes the installation of the CAAS to overcome obsolescence of current parts and allow integration into future FAA airspace requirements for the MH-65. The legacy Automatic Flight Control System (AFCS) is undergoing reliability, maintainability and availability upgrades under a separate contracting effort to support the continued service of the MH-65 per the APB. The upgraded helicopter will be designated as the MH-65E.

1.3 Roles and Responsibilities.

1.3.1 USCG Aviation Logistics Center (ALC), Elizabeth City NC. The ALC H-65 Product Line will serve as the primary airframe/system integrator for the DS6 components. ALC is the Government airworthiness authority for the H-65 Avionics System Development. The components will be received and installed by the USCG at the ALC during MH-65E modifications in a Planned Depot Maintenance (PDM) cycle.

1.3.2 Rockwell Collins Incorporated (RCI). RCI currently serves as the avionics integrator for DS6 and the principle design authority for the CAAS Design. RCI will support CAAS integration and continued AFCS system integration for the MH-65E at the System Integration Laboratory (SIL) in Cedar Rapids, IA.

1.3.3 Component Supplier. The component supplier will provide the required components, interface control, software and support for the component integration with CAAS and warranty services for the full period of this contract.
