Statement of Work Job Performance Aids

1.0 SCOPE.

The scope of this contract is to provide and deliver a Job Performance Aid (JPA) for specified ammunition types, in videographed format, to augment Marine Corps Field Return Ammunition Inspection Guide (FRAIG).

1.1 BACKGROUND.

Marine Corps units return unused munitions to Ammunition Supply Points (ASP) for storage and reissue. ASP personnel are responsible for inspection of the returned munitions prior to acceptance for storage and reissue. With the exception of items in factory-sealed boxes, containers, or original packaging, all field-returned material must be thoroughly inspected to ensure that the ammunition is safe for storage at the ASP and acceptable for reissue.

Program Manager Ammunition (PM Ammo), in collaboration with Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Corona, publishes a FRAIG to assist ASP personnel during inspection of returned munitions. The FRAIG is currently available in DVD format or online on the Marine Ammunition Knowledge Enterprise (MAKE) in a searchable format. Users can search by Weapon or Ammunition Department of Defense Identification Code (DODIC) and find detailed information on each item to include printed inspection instructions.

Many ammunition types are complex with complicated geometry and require dozens of inspection points. For such ammunition, written instructions are subject to possible misinterpretation. Therefore, PM Ammo has a requirement to record inspection processes in a videographed format suitable for playback on multiple platforms (including laptops and tablets).
