1.0 SCOPE.

The USMC has identified a future need for Medium Hybrid Expeditionary Energy System

(MHEES). This Statement of Work defines the effort required to define this capability both technically and for affordability in greater detail for future development and transition to production (separate contract). The desired attributes for this capability are defined in the associated Purchase Description (PD).

The contractor shall provide the requisite program management and technical effort to define and demonstrate the stated capability. This program will be executed in a stepped fashion in order to refine the concept, layout, and eventual configuration while reducing risk.

This acquisition embraces the use of the contractor's configuration management to the maximum extent possible, along with the vendor’s product information and documentation to the greatest extent possible.

The contractor shall be responsible to establish, maintain, and deliver an item that has been proposed, accepted, and verified by the Government.

The contractor is responsible for providing all material, services, and necessary support documentation needed to complete the tasks identified in this SOW.

A key aspect of this project is the interface of the USMC family of future tactical generators with a hybrid system, and the associated means and issues to accomplish this. The contractor shall be responsible for all interfaces between contractor selected / contractor furnished components, and any contractor selected / government furnished components. There is no additional Government

Furnished Information or interface specifications.

2.0 APPLICABLE DOCUMENTS.

The following documents specified form a part of this SOW to the extent specified herein. The most recent revision of the referenced document at the time of contract shall be used unless otherwise specified. In the event of conflict between the applicable documents and this SOW, the SOW shall take precedence. Nothing in this document supersedes applicable laws and regulations unless a specific exemption has been obtained. The following Military Standards and Specifications shall have Mandatory Compliance during this contract, where applicable.

MIL-STD-129 Military Marking for Shipment and Storage

MIL-STD-130 Identification Marking of U.S. Military Property

MIL-STD-882 Standard Practice for System Safety

3.0 TECHNICAL APPROACH.

This program is structured as follows:

3.1 Design/Fabrication: The design portion of the program that is anticipated will consist of requirements definition, trade-offs analysis, and affordability assessment, followed by conceptual design for the MHEES models to address the proposed capabilities of the PD, culminating in the fabrication of two (2) MHEES systems. Any contractor specific testing shall be accomplished during this period of time. The contractor shall deliver all items capable of meeting the contractors proposed Product Specification, as well as all Critical Performance Parameters of the

Statement of Objectives. With delivery, the contractor personnel shall train Government personnel on operation and maintenance of the system.

3.2 System Safety. The contractor shall consider and implement safety engineering principles during all program phase efforts. System design and any operational procedures developed by the contractor shall identify hazards associated with the system by conducting safety analyses and hazard evaluations. Analysis shall include both operational and maintenance aspects of the system along with potential interface problems with planned subsystems.

3.3 Test Support. The contractor shall provide MHEES test support for 6 months after delivery of all items. This support shall commence on the date the last system is delivered to the

Government and shall be all-inclusive for parts, labor and travel to testing sites within 100 miles of Washington DC. Government testing is envisioned to be 6 months in duration. Any user level maintenance not addressed in the Operations and Maintenance Manual shall be covered under this service.

3.4 Technical Data

3.4.1 Product Specification. The contractor shall develop, maintain, update (as required), and deliver a Product Specification that describes the technical and functional performance of each

MHEES model. At 6 months after award, the contractor shall deliver a Draft Product

Specification. An updated Product Specification shall be delivered with the final items.

3.4.2 Affordability and Producibility Assessment. The contractor shall conduct and deliver an

Affordability and Producibility assessment of the MHEES models, documenting design, component, and trade-offs that drive parts and system cost, life cycle operational cost, and shall include fully burdened cost of energy. Results to date shall be briefed at each meeting/review, and all data, analysis and findings shall be incorporated in each delivered report. Government assumptions for cost factors will be provided at start of work meeting. A final assessment report shall be delivered with the units.

3.4.3 Operations and Maintenance Manual. This manual, in contractor format, shall contain a system description, set-up, operation, troubleshooting and basic maintenance instructions for use by test personnel. This manual shall be delivered in paper and electronic format concurrent with the MHEES items.

3.4.4 Monthly Progress Reports. For the life of the contract, the contractor shall provide monthly progress reports detailing technical progress, cost obligation/expenditure reporting, and upcoming planned efforts. These shall be in contractor format and submitted via email no later than 10 days following the end of each month to the Contracting Officers Representative.

3.4.5 Design & Fabrication Report. With delivery of the MHEES items, the contractor shall provide a detailed Final Report of efforts accomplished during the program. This shall be in contractor format, submitted as a MS Word document to the Contracting Officers

Representative.

3.5 Meetings.

The contractor shall attend or host the following meetings no less than prescribed below:

Purpose Frequency Locations

Base Contract - Post Award / Start of work Meeting Once Quantico VA

Base Contract - In Process Design Review @ 3 months Once Quantico VA

Base Contract - Final Design Review @ 9 months Once Contractor

Base Contract - Delivery/Test Review @ 18 months Once Quantico VA

3.6 Government Furnished Equipment: The Government will provide Standard DoD generators as GFE at the start of the build phase of the program. The appropriate mix of generator/s to provide will be determine at the Final Design Review (FDR) depending on the design proposed. With said generator/s will be one Operators Manual. The Government will also provide Integrated Solar Panel Cases assemblies (ISPCA) or an equivalent product. The number of ISPCA systems provided will be determined at the FDR.

3.7 Government Furnished Materials/Information. The Government will not provide any other materials or information outside of the SOW or PD Addendum for the conduct of this effort.

4.0 SECURITY REQUIREMENTS:

Any information provided to the contractor will be unclassified and sensitive unclassified information only. All contractor personnel requiring access to U.S. government sensitive

Information and Data shall possess a completed background investigation for this Public Trust

Position. The prime contractor and all sub-contractors (through the prime contractor) requiring such information shall certify in writing to the Government that personnel supporting this contract are "Qualified U.S. contractors" per DoD Directive 5220.22-M. Qualified U.S.

contractors are restricted to U.S. citizens, persons admitted lawfully into the United States for permanent residence, and are located in the United States. All personnel identified on the certification and/or supporting this contract shall be in compliance with Department of Defense, Department of the Navy, and Marine Corps Information and Personnel Security Policy to include completed background investigations (as required) prior to start.
