This is a Statement of Work (SOW) for Large Aircraft Infrared Countermeasures (LAIRCM) MEON Repairs, issued by the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center. The SOW defines maintenance and repair services for the Multi-Purpose Electro-Optical End-to-End Infrared Testing System (MEON) to support U.S. Air Force, Army, Navy, and Foreign Military Sales customers. Repairs will be performed on a Firm Fixed Price basis for specific MEON configurations, with the contractor responsible for labor, repair materials, consumables, shipping, and coordination of repair assets.

The associated federal contract opportunity is a pre-solicitation sources sought synopsis seeking capabilities packages from potential sources, including small businesses, 8(a) participants, HUBZone businesses, women-owned businesses, and service-disabled veteran-owned businesses. The NAICS code is 334511 with a small business size standard of 1,350 employees. Interested firms must submit a five-page capabilities package demonstrating their ability to provide MEON repairs by 5:00 PM Eastern Time on 28 March 2025, with submissions to be sent to specified Air Force email addresses. The Government reserves the right to conduct a full and open competition or a small business set-aside based on the received capabilities packages.

SOW FOR LASER-X MEON REPAIRS

DEFINITIONS

Government: Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC)

LAIRCM Program Office

User: Department of Defense (DoD)

1. INTRODUCTION

This SOW defines the effort to be performed to provide maintenance and repair of the MEON, Multi-Purpose Electro-Optical End-to-End Infrared Testing System. Repair coverage shall be provided for the U.S. Air Force (USAF), U.S. Army (Army), U.S. Navy (USN), and Foreign

Military Sales (FMS) customers. The MEON repaired under this effort shall come from

Modification Centers, Test Activities, Upgrade Programs, System Integration Laboratories

(SILs) and Field Operations.

2. SCOPE

The scope of this effort shall be to support LAIRCM MEON Repairs. Repairs shall be performed on a Firm Fixed Price basis. Repairs are based upon the Contractor’s standard repair practices, and Best Value Manufacturing and Quality Plan. Acceptance of repairs shall be by

Manufacturing Test Procedure (MTP), incoming test procedures or applicable Acceptance Test

Procedures (ATP). New ATP or test procedures shall be created, or current procedures updated, as necessary, for the MEONs on this contract. The Contractor shall issue a Certificate of

Conformance upon completion of all MEON repairs. All material sent in for repair on this contract is Government furnished, and the title belongs to the Government. Turn-around time

(TAT) shall be dependent on material on hand and is on a best effort basis. TAT shall be measured based on a 3-month rolling average for all MEONs.

3. REPAIR

3.1 MEON Inductions/Repair

The Contractor shall repair and return all failed MEONs. Repair shall include labor, repair material, consumable material, subcontractor costs of repair, material management, collection of maintenance data, shipping costs, and coordination for the shipment of repair assets per direction of the Government. MEONs shall be inventoried upon receipt of the asset and returned from repair with the same inventory contents as were received. Replacement of missing expired and/or damaged MEON parts (e.g. Spare Battery, IR/UV Filter Source, Wrist/Shoulder Strap, Tripod, Laser Range Finder, Hand Grip, Hex Driver, etc.) shall not occur unless directed by the Government. (CDRL A016/DI-MISC-80508B). For confirmed fault conditions, repairs shall continue until complete. If a No Fault Found (NFF) condition is determined, the asset shall be tested and returned to service at the direction of the Government

Program Office. The contractor shall complete all repairs of the MEON as required to make the item serviceable to the qualified configuration, or any changes covered by previously approved configuration changes and does not make the item “like-new”. The Contractor shall issue a Certificate of Conformance upon completion of all MEON repairs.

3.2 MEON Configurations:

The following LAIRCM MEON configurations shall be repaired under this effort:

Support Equipment NSN (National Stock Number)

MEON 4920014983431

MEON 4920015354593

MEON 4920015364050

MEON 4920015699899

MEON 4920016283282

3.3 MEON Configuration Management.

Retrofit and Upgrade of the MEON to approved configurations shall be directed by the

Government via email prior to induction and accounted for under the repair activity.

3.4 Deviations & Waivers.

The existing variances and waivers shall apply to the repaired MEON.

4 Packaging, Handling, Storage and Transportation (PHS&T)

4.1 Packaging & Handling

The Contractor shall deliver, implement, and maintain preservation and packing methods and procedures IAW MIL-STD- 2073-1E, AFI 24-203, AFMCI 24-201, and MIL-STD-129R.

As such, all hardware and equipment shall be shipped as outlined below:

All assets shall be packaged/shipped in approved shipping containers. The Contractor shall notify the Government when assets are received in damaged or non-reusable containers.

MEONs shall be returned in the same approved container the MEON was received in.

4.2 Transportation

MEON shipment direction shall be coordinated with the United States Government (USG) representative to Continental United States (CONUS) locations. The contractor shall use best commercial practices and the most economical means of transportation commensurate with the

Government’s expressed need and agreed upon schedule to ship the serviceable end items. FMS

MEON shipment direction shall be coordinated by the USG representative. The Contractor is not responsible for export and/or transportation coordination to Outside the Continental United States

(OCONUS) locations. Export and OCONUS transportation shall be arranged by the USG representative.

4.3 Unique Item Identification (UID)

UID markings shall be applied on all MEONs at the top level only, for items under this effort. If the label has been damaged and is illegible the Contractor shall contact a USG representative to determine next steps for replacement of the label or disposition of the MEON asset.

5 Condemnation/Beyond Economical Repair (BER)/Secondary Usage of Assets

5.1 Condemnation/Beyond Economical Repair (BER)

The Contractor shall notify the Government if MEON repair costs are estimated to exceed the full contracted Firm-Fixed Price Repair price on contract. Written results of the MEON failure evaluations shall be provided to the Government via Contracts letter. Disposition/Scrapping of the MEON shall proceed under the guidelines established by the Contractor and a USG representative. Requests for condemnation shall be submitted by the Contractor, in writing, to the

Procuring Contracting Officer (PCO). Condemnation shall not be requested due to non-availability of replacement parts. The Government retains the right to examine any condemned items and test results for any times after the Contractor submits a condemnation request. The

Contractor shall notify the PCO (in writing) if an item is awaiting examination for over six months.

5.2 Option to Repair.

The Contractor, with Government concurrence, may choose to repair an asset that would otherwise be defined as BER if the item is obsolete or Diminishing Manufacturing Sources. Additional funding and associated fee shall be provided via contract modification if the repair is over and above the unit repair price established at contract award.
