This Statement of Work (SOW) supports a multiple award with renewal option Contract.

2.0 REMOVAL/INSTALLATION PREPARATION:

2.1 Prior to beginning work a POC will be established between the USSS and the Vendor in order to coordinate details not outlined in this document.

2.2 Vehicle systems will be tested prior to and after the removal or installation of equipment in order to reveal preexisting or post-action problems with vehicle/accessory operation. A vehicle “pre/post” installation checklist shall be provided by the USSS and shall be locally reproduced by the Vendor for internal use.

Vehicle system/accessory tasks listed in the checklist that do not appear in a particular vehicle may be omitted from the test.

2.3 Radio systems and associated component operation shall be tested if a vehicle has a LMR communications system currently installed. This will ensure proper radio and/or siren and light operation prior to installing other equipment. The failure of any function will be noted. Forward and reflected power to the existing antenna system shall be checked utilizing a watt meter in all such cases.

2.4 Confirm all documentation, equipment and parts are available prior to beginning removal or installation actions. Report any shortages to the USSS POC for action.

3.0 MOBILE RADIO REMOVAL:

All radio equipment, hardware and accessories to include cables and wiring are re-usable and shall be removed with the intent of re-utilization in a different vehicle. Therefore the following guidelines shall be followed when performing a removal action:

3.1 DO NOT CUT THE CONTROL HEAD REMOTE CABLE OR THE SIREN

CONTROL CABLE. Exceptions may be made for extraordinary circumstances on a case-by-case basis as determined by the USSS.

3.2 It is permissible to cut the 12v positive (+) lead close to the fuse holder. Leave enough lead on the fuse holder to allow for re-splicing onto the 12v + lead when re-installed. Siren speaker leads maybe cut close to the speaker, but allow at least 5” of wire to remain for future installations. Orange and green fused leads may be cut allowing sufficient length to splice fuses.

3.3 All cabling removed shall be neatly coiled. Base plates shall be attached to the radio/siren as applicable and all extraneous hardware (e.g., relays, switches, brackets, screws) shall be removed from the vehicle.

3.4 All removed items shall be neatly packaged for delivery. Ensure fuse holders that were removed are packed with equipment that is scheduled to be transported.

3.5 A vehicle systems check shall be performed after completion of the removal action using the “pre/post” installation checklist (i.e., described in paragraph 2.2) to ensure no vehicular systems were damaged during the removal process.

4.0 MOBILE RADIO INSTALLATION

4.1 The radio’s 12v + wire shall be indirectly connected to the positive battery terminal in most installations (i.e., to a power distribution post near the main vehicle fuses in the engine compartment). This is to protect the 12v + lead from corrosion, however in some newer vehicles with computer and data circuits it is preferable to connect the 12v + lead directly to the battery terminal to avoid potential problems.

4.2 A fuse holder with the correct rated fuse shall be used in-line with the radio’s 12v + lead.

The fuse holder shall be mounted in an accessible area. If a direct battery connection is required;

for side post batteries use a side post adapter where possible, for top post batteries vendor discretion shall be satisfactory.

4.3 The radios 12v + wire shall not be routed over the engine or near any part of the engine where it will be affected by heat (e.g., exhaust manifold). The 12v + wire shall not interfere with the operation of the engine or other moving parts.

4.4 Control head 12v + wires shall be connected to a switched accessory 12vdc source on a fuse block utilizing a fuse plug tapping assembly (i.e., Celldyne Mini ATM unit- Tessco part number 456026). The fuses must be accessible and the wires shall not interfere with interior vehicle moving parts (e.g., emergency brake, clutch, brake pedal, accelerator pedal, linkage).

4.5 Control head display units shall be mounted within easy reach and view of the vehicle operator except for concealed installations, for which specific instructions will be provided. A pedestal assembly can be provided by the USSS if desired. On rare occasions a vendor supplied pedestal or console may be charged against this contract but must be approved prior to the install.

4.6 The “internal” audio speaker shall be mounted inside the vehicle in a location that does not impede the vehicle operator’s view of the control head or block space designed for the operator’s body. It is acceptable to mount the speaker securely against or behind the passenger side kick panel, under the dashboard or attached to a pedestal. For covert installations the speaker shall be installed “hidden” from view whether observed from inside or outside the vehicle.

4.7 A microphone clip shall be mounted within reach of the vehicle operator to facilitate ease in securing the microphone. The microphone shall be positioned so when secured the microphone PTT button is not subject to accidental depression.

4.8 The radio shall be mounted in the rear of the vehicle on a plywood board (provided by the USSS). The installer shall ensure sufficient clearance so that access to the connectors and ports on the radio and/or siren unit will not be hindered by the routing of the cables or the proximity of other obstacles. The mount shall be solid and secured with at least three sheet metal screws.

4.9 Ground leads shall be attached to exposed bare metal of the vehicle body utilizing a solid ring terminal and a star washer. Whenever possible, the connection shall be made in a manner that facilitates fastening with a bolt, nut and lock washer to prevent loosening over time.

4.10 Excess cable shall be pulled into the trunk area, rolled neatly, tie wrapped and stored in an inconspicuous area. Excess cable shall not be stored under the rear seat.

4.11 A vehicle systems check shall be performed upon completion of work utilizing a “pre/post” installation checklist (as described in paragraph 2.2) to ensure no systems were damaged during the install process.

4.12 Forward and reflected power shall be checked utilizing a calibrated watt meter to ensure proper antenna function and installation. Reflected power shall be less than 10% of forward power. A specific channel to perform antenna checks will be provided by the USSS. Installed antenna mast may require trimming to achieve the required forward/reflected power ratio per frequency band.

5.0 SIREN INSTALLATIONS:

5.1 The 12v + lead for the siren shall be attached in the same manner as the radio 12v + lead for the radio (i.e., paragraphs 4.2, 4.3) utilizing the correct fuse rating provided for the siren fuse lead assembly.

5.2 The siren power amplifier shall be securely mounted on plywood (provided by USSS) and installed near the associated radio unit. This Always ensure the installed siren is mounted in a position that allows the USSS property number to be visible.

5.3 The external siren speaker shall be mounted in the engine compartment with the siren’s sound channel ducts facing the front of the vehicle. The speaker shall not in any way affect the ground clearance required for a particular vehicle. Variations to the location of the speaker in the engine compartment are permitted due to limited space in newer and smaller vehicles. The installed speaker shall not impede normal airflow to the engine or interfere with mechanical functions. If a suitable mounting location cannot be establish in the front of the vehicle, the speaker may be mounted in the rear of the vehicle with USSS approval.

6.0 HORN/SIREN RELAY INSTALLATION:

6.1 The horn/siren relay will be provided by the USSS. It shall be securely mounted under the dash (tie wrapped or bolted) in a manner where it remains accessible during troubleshooting or repair actions.

6.2 The connections made on the vehicle horn ring wire shall be male and female ¼” insulated quick disconnects; the horn ring side shall be male and the horn side shall be female.

Jumpers with the appropriate quick disconnects shall be used from these connections to the relay to allow the vehicle wiring to be restored to normal operation when the LMR system is removed.

6.3 Use the provided VIP cable assembly between the radio control head and the horn/siren relay. Absent the provided cable, twenty-two gauge wires shall be used following the color assignments in the accompanying horn/siren diagram provided by the USSS. Pin connections to the control head VIP shall be crimped or soldered.

7.0 EMERGENCY LIGHT INSTALLATION:

7.1 Emergency lights shall be mounted equal in height and positioned to allow maximum visibility when viewed from outside the vehicle.

7.2 Ensure lights and associated switches are connected to a good chassis ground.

7.3 Emergency light wiring shall be installed utilizing wire consistent with the manufacturer’s instructions and fused with a fast blow fuse.

7.4 A visor light shall be provided by USSS. Each USSS office will separately purchase “desired” emergency light equipment and provide them to the USSS POC who will coordinate installation with the contractor, unless otherwise stated. Installation wire shall be provided by the vendor performing the installation.

7.5 The U.S. Secret Service will normally purchase desired emergency lights utilizing funds other than funds allocated for use under this contract and provide the lighting to contractors at the time of installation, however it is permissible under this contract, at certain times and if approved by the USSS to utilize funds to purchase emergency lighting directly from a vendor on the condition that:

- Utilizing contract funds to purchase emergency lights shall not jeopardize completion of any radio, siren or other installation/removal to be performed under the allocated budget.

- Emergency lights are installed only by the vendor from which the lights were ordered.

- Use of contract funds to purchase emergency lights shall be approved by USSS management (e.g., SAIC, Branch Chief, Finance) prior to committing any contract funds for emergency light purchases.

8.0 GENERAL GUIDELINES:

8.1 Shrink tubing shall be used to insulate all crimp-on and soldered connections where wires and crimp on terminal lugs join (e.g., 12v + lead, light wiring, relay wiring)

ELECTRICAL TAPE SHALL NOT BE USED IN PLACE OF SHRINK TUBING

8.2 Equipment shall be mounted in a position that facilitates easy access when performing removal and maintenance actions.

8.3 Cables shall not be run under carpet except around edges of the floor. Keep wiring clear of areas normally used by the driver or passenger as foot rests. Do not run cables near or over the catalytic converter.

DO NOT TIE-WRAP CABLES TOGETHER THAT ARE ROUTED THROUGH

BARELY ACCESSIBLE LOCATIONS, rather tie wrap the exposed section of the cable leading into such areas, thereby allowing separation of the wires if trouble shooting or replacement actions are required. .

8.4 A rubber grommet shall be used when routing wires through the firewall or metal chassis anywhere on the vehicle to protect against chafing. Apply silicone compound around the grommet to prevent water entry.

8.5 If a disguised antenna is installed on the front fender as a replacement to the standard vehicular antenna and is then connected to a coupler for the AM/FM radio, the coaxial cable may be cut to accommodate the coupler. Do not cut the antenna cable in the section that has the shrink tubing. This portion of the antenna cable is part of the engineering providing the impedance match to the radio. The coupler shall be mounted securely behind the kick panel/dash so as not to rattle or fall into the passenger compartment. Antenna leads shall be kept clear of all electronic ignition components.

8.6 Exercise caution when installing trunk components. Do not block access to the spare tire/jack equipment or cause damage to any part of the vehicle systems (e.g., gas tank, AM/FM antenna amplifiers).
