Appendix C – Remanufacturing Requirements

1.0 Scope

Upon award of this contract, the contractor will assume total responsibility for overseeing remanufacturing operations for the parts contained herein in compliance with all TRD work requirements. This effort will support both the OC Tinker Depot's 10-year TCI requirements and field-level sub-component failures. Furthermore, the contractor is responsible for ensuring all provided assets are authorized for return to service and meet the specified performance metrics.

Projected TCI schedules anticipate an average annual requirement of 15 LG shipsets. However, this demand can fluctuate significantly. The Government will provide an annual TCI schedule, and the contractor will be responsible for meeting the specified quantities. The required quantities for sub-component remanufacture are subject to change. These quantities will fluctuate based on the annual number of failures and the availability of Air Force funds allocated to address these demands.

All work to be performed will be in accordance with the required CMMs and consistent with “Depot Level Maintenance”:

Includes, but is not limited to-

(a) Installation, inspection, localization, isolation, disassembly, interchange, repair, reassembly, alignment, and checkout; and

(b) Maintenance performed on materiel requiring repair, major overhaul, or complete rebuild of parts, assemblies, subassemblies, and end items, and including modification, testing, and reclamation.

Does not include the design or manufacture of new items.

2.0 Remanufacturing Process

Upon receipt, all unserviceable landing gear parts will be subject to disassembly, inspection and a complete remanufacture, modification/update, and test of each end-item and all associated components, when applicable, will be performed per 14 CFR part 43 and approved for return to service in accordance with the latest versions of applicable Component Maintenance Manuals (CMMs). The general work requirements in this landing gear remanufacturing effort include, but are not limited to, complete disassembly, cleaning and paint removal, stripping of plated coatings, nondestructive inspection, machining, grinding, coating replacement, reassembly, testing, and repainting in accordance with the applicable CMM and proper documentation in accordance with FAA form 8130. Any components requiring replacement during the remanufacture process shall be procured from the OEM, the approved source, or an approved used part.

2.1 Parts and Materials

The contractor is required to furnish all material and parts in support of the remanufacturing requirements, including replacement of condemned recoverable units. This includes purchasing/stocking of all parts required to support all repairs. The contractor must procure all new manufacture spare parts from Boeing or sources approved by Boeing IAW the OMIT license. OMIT license details are below in 2.1.1. Any deviations, waivers, and non-conformances of new manufacture spare parts shall be processed by Boeing IAW 14 CFR 21.618. Under no circumstance shall the use of a substituted part alter the configuration of the end item without prior approval. Replacement of failed parts with an older configured part is allowed only if the change does not return the next higher assembly or end item to an older configuration (downgrading/de-configuration) and if the configuration is an approved configuration in the applicable CMM.

2.1.1 OMIT License

Para 3.1 of the 23A OMIT license states:

Boeing grants to the U.S. Government license rights in the Licensed Materials as set forth in SCR H007(c)(2) “License Rights,” subparagraph (B)(iii). Except as set forth herein or as specifically authorized by Boeing, the U.S. Government will not disclose Commercial Proprietary Information to anyone. In accordance with Special Contract Requirement (SCR) H007 (a)(1)(B), such license excludes the right to manufacture new items or parts.

Subpara 3.1.1. of the 23A OMIT license states in a Depot Maintenance Activity Sublicense that:

The U.S. Government is authorized to disclose and provide the Licensed Materials to Third- Party Contractors, Contract Labor and Consultants as set forth in SCR H007(c)(2)(B)(iii)(a), provided that the Third-Party Contractors, Contract Labor and Consultants has executed a nondisclosure agreement.

2.1.2 Used Serviceable Material (USM)

The contractor shall limit the use of used components to minimize degrading USAF inventory of assets. It is authorized to procure used items if Form 8130 compliance and traceability along with components rework history is available and the item has been remanufactured per the applicable KC-46 CMM requirements. Structural Safe Life Limited Parts (SSLLP) and assemblies that contain SSLLPs shall not be used unless usage history demonstrates a minimum of 5,000 landing cycles remaining per the Airworthiness Limitations of D011T030-01-01 section C.

2.1.3 Missing Parts

During the course of performance, the contractor may receive unserviceable assets that are not complete due to missing repairable part(s)/subcomponent(s). Items that are designated as “consumable” and/or “throw-away” (i.e. authorized to be disposed of at the field level by applicable technical orders) are not considered to be missing parts. Assets may be missing parts that are readily visible upon initial receipt at the contractor’s warehouse, or may not be detected until the unit is inducted for remanufacture and disassembled. The contractor may choose to replace missing parts at no cost to the Government without submitting a missing parts notification. If the contractor elects not to replace the missing parts at no cost to the Government, regardless of when/where the missing part(s) are detected, the contractor shall notify the KC-46 LG Program Manager and Contracting Officer of the occurrence and provide the following information regarding the missing part(s): NSN, P/N, Description, Quantity, CDRL A016 GFP list item number (if applicable) and supporting documentation that demonstrates part is missing.

Once the notification is made and after collaborating with the contractor, the Government shall notify the contractor of the Government’s determination, which may include but is not limited to:

a) Depot/Field unit provides the missing part(s) to the contractor

The Government Integrated Product Team (IPT) shall submit a formal request to the designated depot or field unit outlining any missing parts required by the contractor. This request will include a detailed list of the missing items, specifying part numbers, quantities, and any relevant technical specifications. The depot/field unit is responsible for locating the requested parts within their inventory or supply chain. Upon location, the depot/field unit will promptly provide the missing parts to the contractor, ensuring proper packaging and shipping procedures are followed.

The Government IPT will coordinate with both the contractor and the depot/field unit to track the status of the request and ensure timely delivery.

b) SCM team provide the missing part(s) to the contractor as GFP

In the event that the missing parts are identified as NSNs listed within the Government Furnished Property (GFP) list of this contract, and the Government authorizes their provision as GFP, the Government has the option to provide the missing asset to the contractor as GFP. -- If this option is selected, the contractor will submit a Report of Discrepancy (ROD) to the Government Contracting Officer (CO), Program Manager (PM), Supply Planner (SP), and Contract Monitor (CM) for disposition. A requisition/condemnation of GFP shall then take place following the steps outlined in Appendix A, Section 3.1.2, paragraph c. and Attachment 13, GFM instructions.

c) Contractor procures the missing parts and Government reimburses the contractor

In order for the contractor to receive authorization to procure and be reimbursed for the missing part(s), a formal request must be submitted to the Contracting Officer in writing and contain the following elements: NSN, P/N, Description, Quantity, CDRL A016 GFP list item number (if applicable), and Price Estimate with Analysis. All reimbursement to the contractor for missing parts under this contract will be considered by the Government on a case-by-case basis using an O&A

CLIN.

The price estimate/analysis shall include a brief summary that utilizes current (within the last 365 days) market research data and includes a cost breakdown, basis of estimate on why the contractor believes the price is fair and reasonable (i.e. unit price, quantity, unit of issue, delivery schedule, competitive or sole source procurement, buy history, actuals, etc.). The contractor must procure all new manufacture parts from Boeing or approved sources IAW the OMIT license. Once more, this effort is not authorized to include the design or manufacture of new items.

If the reimbursement request is approved by the Government, the cost of the missing parts shall be provided through the O&A CLIN and process outlined in Appendix A, Section 8.

2.10 CMM Supplements and Changes

2.10.1 CMM Supplements

The Government will consider supplements to the CMMs. Until a supplement has been approved, the contractor shall proceed with the CMM as written and shall not delay the remanufacturing process on any component or replacement of the component while waiting for supplement approval. The Government’s time to review a supplement will not be used as a Government caused delay.

2.10.2 CMM Changes

Recommended updates to the CMM for errors identified in the CMMs shall be submitted through the Government to Boeing for their consideration. Other change requests to the CMM content will not be considered.

2.11 Critical Safety Item (CSI) Management

No parts on this contract have been designated as CSI. If any part is designated as CSI in the future, the contractor will comply with AFI 20-106, 25 Jan 2006, and AFI23-101, 8 Aug 2013 in performing work on all landing gear critical safety items.

2.12 Part Marking

The contactor shall apply part marking IAW applicable CMM requirements. Additional requirements to apply Item Unique Identification (IUID) may be required and may require an IUID marking plan IAW in Appendix A, Section 6, paragraph 6.10. (CDRL A014).

2.13 Airworthiness Approval Tags

The contractor shall apply the following to items ready to return to service:

2.13.1 FAA Form 8130-3

FAA Form 8130-3, Authorized Release Certificate, Airworthiness Approval Tag shall be used to document return to service airworthiness approval and provide identification and traceability. The contractor is required to submit this form upon completion of the remanufacturing process for each asset.

2.13.2 AFTO Form 95

AFTO Form 95 is a military form used to document repairs made to each item tracked by serial number and special repair items. All information contained on form AFTO 95 that is included with unserviceable landing gear parts shall be retained. Any applicable information concerning part history and special repairs shall be included on the reissued AFTO 95 attached to the highest assembly once the part has completed the remanufacture process.

2.14 Time Compliance Technical Order (TCTO)

The contractor shall comply with and accomplish all applicable TCTOs as directed by the Government. TCTOs will be issued as necessary due to Boeing issued Service Letters, Service Bulletins, Advance Design Notices, etc. If the compliance results in increased costs, the contractor will request an equitable adjustment in accordance with the Changes clause contained in the contract. The contractor may be required to supply historical data and perform inventory condition evaluations to support the development of TCTOs.

2.15 Parts Beyond CMM Repairability

For O&A replacement parts (as defined in TRD Main, Section 3.8) the contractor has the authority to determine that a unit is beyond CMM repairability. These determinations shall not alter the contractor’s obligations to meet the ELT/RTAT metrics, reliability, and other contract performance requirements within the contract price. The contractor is authorized to condemn and replace GFP initially provided at no cost to the Government.

If the contractor determines that the remanufacture cannot be accomplished within the CMM procedures the contractor shall promptly notify the CO, PM, and Engineer in writing and shall not perform further services on any such items except at the direction of the CO.

2.15.1 At point of notification the contractor and Government will begin the process of determining if the O&A part can be repaired. Contractor shall provide any information about potential repairs. If repair is not possible, the process moves to acquiring a replacement part, which involves either Government funding through the O&A CLIN (Appendix A, Section 8) or direct provision of the part from USAF inventory through GFM (Appendix A, Section 3.1). If the asset reaches the point where it’s scrapped, the contractor shall submit a request for disposition (RFD) to the CO, PM, and engineer. If these parties agree, and the asset contains salvageable Government Furnished Material (GFM) components, the PM will provide instructions for the disposition of those parts, or direct disposal in place.

If the part is deemed repairable, the contractor provides detailed repair information, including the part number, S/N, discrepancy, proposed plan, and cost, to the Government for review. The Government then decides whether to repair or replace the part. If the decision is to replace, the process reverts to acquiring a replacement part. If the Government approves the repair, funding is allocated via the O&A CLIN, and the contractor proceeds with the approved repair.

2.15.2 For FFP parts (as defined in TRD Main, Section 3.8) the contractor has the authority to determine that a unit is beyond CMM repairability.

Upon this determination, an assessment of the FFP part's repairability will begin. If repair is not possible, a replacement is needed. If repair is possible, the contractor decides whether to repair or replace the part. Should repair be chosen, the contractor proceeds with the repair under the initial FFP cost provided.

If replacement is chosen, or if the part was deemed unrepairable, the availability of a replacement part in the contractor's inventory is checked. If a replacement part is available, it is used. If not, it must be determined whether ordering a new replacement part will cause a breach of the Exchange Lead Time (ELT). To avoid breaking ELT, the contractor may request GFM from the USAF inventory (Appendix A, Section 3). If ELT is not a concern, the contractor orders a new part, under the initial FFP cost provided.

*A step by step process map of Section 2.15 can be found in Attachment 12.

2.16 Adding Repair to Assets outside of CMM

Per Section 2.15 the contractor may determine that a part that is currently beyond CMM Repairability due to high remanufacturing costs may be repairable using a more efficient process.

If a CMM supplement can allow a more efficient process that does not impact the form, fit, or function of the item, does not require a change to the Aircraft Maintenance Manuals (AMMs), and does not require a stress or fatigue analysis, the contractor may submit a CMM supplement request to the Government for consideration. The contractor shall be responsible for developing the CMM supplement, coordinating approval through the Government, and submitting appropriate documentation and justifications. Until a supplement has been approved, the contractor shall proceed with the CMM as written and shall not delay the remanufacturing process of any component or replacement of the component while waiting for supplement approval. The Government’s time to review a supplement will not be used as a Government caused delay.

2.17 Disposition of Condemned Parts

All contractor disposal actions of GFP must be authorized by the Government Contracting Officer, Program Manager and Supply Planner prior to disposal and must be reported during the monthly progress report IAW CDRL A001. All assets shall be disposed IAW the demilitarization (DEMIL) code assigned by the Equipment Specialist. All disposal actions shall be reported within the CAV-AF system and reconciled as applicable.

If requested the contractor must turn in the condemned GFP to the supporting DLA Disposition Services facility within 30 days. The contractor shall submit the USAF Standard Form 1428 (SF 1428 - Inventory Schedule B) for all detailed parts and end item condemnations.

2.18 Rob-Back/Cannibalization of Serviceable or Reparable Parts

Unless specifically prohibited by the controlling CMM, the contractor is authorized to rob-back Sub-Component/Line Repair Units (LRUs) that are in work in order to repair in work Shipsets/LRUs for the purpose of expediting deliveries. Rob-back is acceptable only when the schedule is critical and the part(s) within the Shipset/LRU are unserviceable and will take an unacceptable amount of time to repair or to order and replace. The contractor is also authorized to cannibalize serviceable parts from LRUs not yet in work for the purpose of expediting deliveries. However, in this instance the contractor is not allowed to cannibalize to the point the LRU is no longer repairable. All cannibalized parts are required to be replaced as contractor furnished material (CFM).
