Appendix A – Supply Chain and Program Management

1.0 Phase-in

The contractor shall be allowed a phase-in period at a minimum of 3 months to ramp-up to full performance. During this period, the contractor shall complete all tasks necessary to receive ‘F’ condition assets and meet the required Exchange Lead Time (ELT) and Remanufacture Turn Around Time (RTAT) metrics IAW Appendix B. The contractor will be required to fully meet remanufacture requirements in accordance with the 10yr TCI schedule and associated DLR sub-component support, further outlined in Appendix C.

2.0 Phase-out

During this period, the contractor shall complete all tasks required to ensure a timely and effective transition to a follow-on support strategy. This includes closing out all open orders, returning all government-furnished property (GFP) in acceptable "A" condition, and completing all Government reporting, tracking, and CDRL requirements.

3.0 GFP Management

All property owned or leased by the Government includes: Government Furnished Property (GFP), Government Furnished Material (GFM), and Government Furnished Equipment (GFE).

Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 45.

NOTE: No GFE will be provided in support of this contract. As such, any required materials or equipment will be the responsibility of the contractor.

NOTE: The contractor is responsible for providing all Contractor Furnished Material (CFM) necessary to meet the remanufacturing requirements and performance metrics outlined in this TRD. The contractor shall be proactively forecasting and procuring all necessary CFM to ensure a sufficient contractor rotable spares pool to support all requirements.

Government Furnished Material (GFM) will only be considered as a last resort, on a case-by-case basis, and only when the Government Contracting Officer determines it to be in the government's best interest (e.g., for economy, standardization, or expedited repair).

3.1 Government Furnished Property / Government Furnished Material

3.1.1 GFP is property in the possession of, or directly acquired by, the Government and subsequently furnished to the contractor for performance of a contract. The GFP to be furnished to the contractor is listed in Section J Attachment 1 (KC-46 LG PBL NSN List, Tab 1).

a. When the Government owned asset is in the possession of the contractor, the asset shall be accounted for, tracked, and stored in a secure area where they are protected and handled in such a manner against all damages, weather, and foreign matter. Further, the contractor shall secure the asset to prevent any damages, pilferages, or loss while in the contractor’s possession IAW DoD 5200.1-R. All costs associated with such storage will be at the contractor’s expense.

b. Refer to Section 6, paragraph 6.7 - 6.9 of this Appendix A for Government furnished property reporting requirements.

c. GFP shall only be used to support the USAF KC-46 until they have reached the end of their useful life and have been condemned and disposed of per TRD Appendix C Paragraph 2.17. GFP shall not be used to support commercial 767 aircraft.

3.1.2 GFM is property supplied to the contractor, for incorporation into an end item to be delivered under the contract or which may be consumed in the performance of the contract. It includes, but is not limited to, raw and processed material, parts, components, and assemblies. GFM is also referred to as materials and direct materials under the terms of the contract. A list of potential GFM to be furnished to the contractor is listed in Section J Attachment 1 (KC-46 LG PBL NSN List, Tab 2).

a. When a Shipset undergoes remanufacture and an “O&A Replacement Part” is determined to be beyond CMM repairability or non-repairable (Condemn/SCRAP), the Contractor may request a Government Furnished Material (GFM) replacement, provided that specific conditions are met and thoroughly documented. These conditions include the contractor lacking sufficient Contractor Furnished Material (CFM) inventory to replace the subcomponent, the government determines repair is not cost effective, or when commercial procurement of the subcomponent is unfeasible due to long lead times that would negatively impact performance metrics.

b. When a Shipset undergoes remanufacture and a “Firm Fixed Price (FFP) part” is determined non-repairable (Condemn/SCRAP) the contractor may request a Government Furnished Material (GFM) replacement, provided that specific conditions are met and thoroughly documented. These conditions include the contractor lacking sufficient Contractor Furnished Material (CFM) inventory to replace the subcomponent and procuring the subcomponent commercially would break performance metrics.

NOTE: Before submitting a GFM request, the Contractor is obligated to:

1. Attempt to overhaul the subcomponent if possible.

2. Replace the subcomponent using available CFM.

3. Attempt to procure the required subcomponent commercially.

c. Condemnation of Sub-components / GFM Replacement:

At the determination of 3.1.2 (a. or b.) certain subcomponents of an end item assembly may be condemned. If the sub-component is condemned, the condemnation shall be reported in CAV AF.

If GFM subcomponent is no longer repairable, the contractor will condemn the part. All GFM will be scrapped at the contractor’s facility and a turn-in will be completed in CAV AF in “H” condition. If the condemned subcomponents are to be supplied as GFM under the terms of the contract, contractor will requisition the necessary parts through normal USAF procedures (See attachment 13, Government Property Management and Instructions). The remaining reparable components will proceed through the repair line.

d. Refer to Section 6, paragraph 6.16 of this Appendix A for Government furnished material reporting requirements.

e. In the event that the Government provides a sub-component asset as Government Furnished Material (GFM), the cost of that GFM shall be deducted from the contractor's Firm Fixed Price (FFP) per Remanufacture. The adjusted price will be calculated as: FFP per Remanufacture - Cost of Government Furnished Material = Final Overhaul Price. This adjustment will be reconciled annually, as detailed in Appendix B, Section 5.10.3

* Cost of Government Furnished Material is defined as the AF Standard Unit Price (Acquisition Cost + Overhead Costs). This Standard Unit Price will be pulled from the Governments FLITES or SPM system.

f. GFM shall only be used to support the USAF KC-46 until they have reached the end of their useful life and have been condemned and disposed of per TRD Appendix C Paragraph 2.17. GFM shall not be used to support commercial 767 aircraft.

3.2 Contractor Property

The contractor shall provide any and all parts support other than GFP at their own expense.

Contractor Furnished Material (CFM) includes all materials owned/purchased by the contractor, outside of GFP, that is required in the remanufacture of the GFP. In the event that the contractor has procured CFM that does not get utilized over the course of the contract, no reimbursement will be provided by the Government.

3.3 Misidentified Material

Upon receipt of misdirected or misidentified material, contractor shall submit a Supply Discrepancy Report (SDR) in the WEBSDR system. In the event the contractor cannot access WEBSDR, then the Report of Discrepancy (ROD) shall be submitted to the Government Contracting Officer (CO), Program Manager (PM), Supply Planner (SP), and Contract Monitor (CM) for disposition. DLA CO will determine whether any additional costs incurred as a result of the handling and/or storage of these items, will be authorized to be paid with O&A funding and whether such funds are available.

In the case of an ‘A’ condition asset being misidentified in supply and shipped to the contractor as part of the overall D/O quantity, the contractor will identify those incorrect condition assets and submit an SDR or ROD to the Government CO, PM, SP, and CM for corrective action. At that time, a determination from the outcome of the SDR/ROD process will be made on the return shipment of ‘A’ condition assets and the Government shipment of additional ‘F’ assets back to the contractor to correct the required D/O quantity. In this instance the government will be responsible for correcting the discrepancy, return shipment, and associated shipping costs.

4.0 Surge Requirements

Routine, Mission Impaired Capability Awaiting Parts (MICAP), Surge, and Essential DoD contractor services: The contractor shall be responsible for returning serviceable assets in the time set forth in this contract. When surge requirements are known prior to the contract year, they will be included in the forecasted calculations provided to the contractor. USAF shall notify the contractor when a surge is expected. When surge requirements are not known prior to funding the contract year or the Government requires an asset for coverage of a MICAP requirement, or to pre-populate/pre-position stock in order to urgently improve readiness, the contractor agrees to enter into negotiations with the Government to expedite delivery of the needed asset(s).

5.0 Shipping Containers/Packaging

All Landing Gear parts must be packaged IAW associated Special Packaging Instructions (SPIs), available through the Special Packaging Instructions Retrieval & Exchange System (SPIRES) (https://spires.wpafb.af.mil). If a SPI is not available in SPIRES, the contractor shall package the item in conformance with MIL-STD-129 and ATA SPEC 300. If elements of these requirements conflict, the more restrictive requirement shall be used. If the contractor develops a packaging design, the contractor shall deliver it per CDRL A015.

The contractor may choose to reuse existing packaging and accomplish any associated repair of such packaging or procure new packaging. The contractor shall be responsible for ensuring that containers are in serviceable (reusable) condition. The cost associated with container repair or replacement is at the contractor’s expense.

5.1 Shipping and Transportation

Contractor is required to comply with all CAV-AF requirements identified in the applicable CDRLs and attachments to the contract. Additionally, upon completion of a remanufacture requirement, the contractor is required to print the DD1348-1 (in triplicate) from CAV-AF. Place one copy on the outside of the shipment container, one copy inside the shipment container, and retain the third copy for the contractor’s records.

Transportation costs associated with shipping ‘F’ condition unserviceable assets to the designated contractor storage locations will be processed and covered IAW Defense Transportation Regulation (DTR) 4500.9-R and Air Force Instruction (AFI) 24-203 utilizing the validated Transportation Account Codes (TACs) contained in the requisition documents. Return shipment from the contractor back to the USAF designated receiving location and all other transportation costs required to support this requirement will be borne by the contractor.

When the customer attempts to contact the contractor, they should be referred to the appropriate Government office (417th SCMS).

8.0 Over and Above (O&A)

In accordance with DFAR PGI 217.77 negotiations shall be in IAW DFARS Clause

252.217.7028. Request for consideration of over and above shall be in writing utilizing procedures identified below. If the Government determines that O&A is warranted, the parties shall negotiate a fair and reasonable price.

Work Requests (WRs): contractor shall identify any work that is required which would qualify as “over and above” IAW DFARS 252.217-7028. In the event that over and above work is identified, the contractor shall prepare a Work Request (WR). The following steps shall be followed:

Step 1 – Contractor shall prepare a Work Request. Each WR shall include at a minimum the following: data on the type of discrepancy disclosed, the specific location of the discrepancy, and the estimated labor hours and material required to correct the discrepancy. Data shall be sufficient to satisfy contract requirements and obtain the authorization of the Contracting Officer to perform the proposed work.

Step 2 – Contractor shall promptly submit the WR to the Contracting Officer, PM, and Engineer. The Government and contractor will then negotiate a settlement for the over and above work. Contract modifications will be executed to definitize all over and above work.

Step 3 – The Government team and CO shall review/approve work request(s) and Contracting Office shall send final approval to contractor prior to O&A related work commencing.

“O&A Replacement Parts" refers to the six (6) KC-46 landing gear shipset overhaul parts listed in Section J Attachment 1 (KC-46 LG PBL NSN List, Tab 3).

Due to the low failure and high replacement cost of these parts, their replacement is managed separately from the Firm Fixed Price (FFP) of this contract. Repair of O&A Parts shall be performed in accordance with the applicable Component Maintenance Manual (CMM) and accounted for in the FFP PPR cost of shipset overhaul. Any repair requirements beyond CMM limits, or the determination to replace a O&A Part, requires prior written authorization from the Government Contracting Officer. Replacement costs for O&A Parts are not included in the FFP and will be handled separately utilizing an O&A CLIN.

The O&A requests detailed below are examples of situations or occurrences deemed reasonable for submission to the CO, adhering to the previously described process above.

a) Additional funding is needed, beyond the shipset FFP to cover the higher cost of repairing an "O&A replacement part" instead of replacing it IAW Appendix C, Section 2.15.

b) Procuring a replacement part when an “O&A replacement part” is determined to be non-repairable (SCRAP) IAW Appendix C, Section 2.15.

c) Sub-component deemed Beyond Economical Repair (BER), the government will conduct an assessment to determine whether it will utilize O&A to:

Fund the additional costs required to repair the existing asset, effectively restoring it to a serviceable condition; or

Fund the additional costs for the contractor to provide a new, serviceable replacement asset.

d) Incident related work – refers to parts that require repair or replacement due to damage sustained or identified by documented mishaps or hard landings.

e) Missing Parts – Contractor procures missing parts and Government reimburses the contractor IAW Appendix C, section 2.1.3.

f) Any additional costs incurred as a result of the handling and/or storage of Misidentified Material IAW Appendix A, Section 3.3.

9.0 ITEM UNIQUE IDENTIFICATION (IUID) MARKING (IAW AFMCI

20-105 PARA. 3.12)

When required the contractor shall replace damaged markings, identification, and decals. In the event IUID markings are required for all end items and subcomponents to the end item IAW CDRL A014 found in section 6.10 of this Appendix A.

a) Each completed end-item will be permanently and legibly marked with the contractor’s facility identification. This identification will display the name of the contractor facility, date of maintenance and contract number. This identification can be by decalcomania, rubber stamp, or stencil. When using rubber stamp or stencil, use permanent, waterproof ink or paint of contrasting color; also, end-item identification plates shall reflect the latest configuration/update, i.e., National Stock Number (NSN), Part Number as applicable.

b) For items that do not have an IUID marking specifications the contractor shall develop the marking specifications in accordance with the latest version of MIL-STD-130N.

c) IUID markings currently in place on items undergoing remanufacture shall be protected from damage or removal during remanufacture. Ensure 2-D matrix IUID markings are readable per TO 00-25-260. Should IUID marking be rendered unreadable during remanufacture, the contractor shall notify the ACO for determination.

d) IUID markings which will be potentially destroyed during remanufacture due to technical direction (i.e. paint removal, sand blasting, etc.) shall be recorded prior to maintenance action and replaced with the same Unique Item Identifier (UII) as part of the remanufacture action.

e) The contractor shall submit the required and applicable data for legacy items to the

DoD IUID Registry per the data submission procedures at https://dodprocurementtoolbox.com/site-pages/overview-iuid-registry

10.0 Obsolescence / DMSMS Management

While the OEM (Boeing) is responsible for preventing obsolescence risks for new manufacture spare parts, it is possible that an obsolescence issue could impact the ability to satisfy the requirements of the contract. The contractor is responsible for monitoring and managing the loss, or the impending loss, of manufacturers or suppliers of components, assemblies, or materials required to satisfy the requirements of this contract. The contractor shall provide an Obsolescence/ Diminishing Manufacturing Source/Material Shortage (DMSMS) Management Plan IAW CDRL A017. At a minimum, the plan shall address the following: (1) means and approach for providing the USAF with information regarding obsolescence / DMSMS problems,

(2) planned resolution of current obsolescence / DMSMS problems, (3) parts list screening, (4) parts list monitoring, (5) processing Government Industry Data Exchange Program (GIDEP) (www.gidep.org) DMSMS Alerts (6) processing Service DMSMS Alerts, (7) communication with and availability of information to the USAF, (8) means and approach for establishing obsolescence and DMSMS solutions, and (9) plan for conducting DMSMS predictions. The “Program Manager’s Handbook – Common Practices to Mitigate the Risk of Obsolescence,” published by the Defense Microelectronics Agency may be used as a guide in developing an obsolescence / DMSMS Management Plan. All provisions of Paragraph 16, “ECP Submission and Approval” apply to all obsolescence/DMSMS Class I and II contractor recommended solutions. The USAF will advise the contractor of any obsolescence actions in process to avoid duplication of cost.
