PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

COMMANDER, NAVAL AIR FORCE RESERVE,

AVIATION MAINTENANCE SAFETY TRAINING AND SUPPORT,

PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

1.0 INTRODUCTION: Commander, Naval Air Force Reserve (CNAFR) has the requirement to provide all CNAFR Aviation maintenance workers, first line supervisors, and unit leadership with comprehensive training and support in personal standards of conduct as professional aviation maintenance technicians to improve safety and develop a sustainable culture of compliance and operational excellence. This training is necessary to preserve warfighting readiness by reducing the number and severity of aviation ground mishaps (AGM), the most ubiquitous type of mishap in Naval Aviation.

2.0 BACKGROUND: The Department of the Navy seeks to improve readiness by decreasing preventable mishaps to preserve life and assets. The Naval Safety Command (NAVSAFCOM) tracks data trends on all categories of aviation mishaps and has noted that reportable mishaps have increased across all services between 2013 and 2020. According to the 1 December 2020 Report to the U.S. Congress from the National Committee on Military Aviation Safety (NCMAS) the increase in mishaps has occurred most in the Navy and Marine Corps, most heavily in the aforementioned AGM category.

It is CNAFR’s goal to flatten and reduce the trend of Class C AGMs through reduction of preventable maintenance errors and improved compliance with all guidance. Proper training of key military personnel has been identified as an urgent course of action.

To this end, the CNAFR seeks an all-inclusive training and support program that will have minimum time encumbrance on our Sailors, is cost effective, and proven to reduce aviation mishaps. The training shall include: 1) a comprehensive and robust communication strategy; 2) operational challenges that activate objectives of the training; 3) unified talking points; 4) cognitive forcing tools for decision support on maintenance tasks; 5) briefing cards; 6) case study/analysis; 7) data reports with recommendations for unit-level leadership derived from the technicians trained at their unit and delivered within 72 hours of training; 8) provide in class, real-time technician and leader attitudinal assessments captured digitally with an anonymous audience response system (ARS); and 9) be proven in like-industry to reduce mishaps resulting from compliance-based errors stemming from personnel behaviors and attitudes that predispose units to unsafe maintenance practices.

In 2021, CNAFR utilized short-duration maintenance safety training proof of concept. That year the TYCOM had its fewest number of mishaps in the last 5-year period. This proof of concept resulted in a threefold budgetary return on the investment. The cost savings to the government are estimated to be an average of $2 million annually.

3.0 SCOPE: The new capability CNAFR seeks will deliver a comprehensive aviation maintenance safety training program to all Aviation Maintenance Workers, First Line Supervisors, and Key Leaders throughout the chain of command. Training will include tracking of maintenance attitudes with respect to procedural compliance, to include complacency, OPTEMPO pressures, susceptibility to errors, fatigue, and professionalism. The Contractor shall provide tools for briefing and debriefing high-risk evolutions like, aircraft moves, crane operations, applying hydraulic pressure, energizing circuits, canopy closures, jacking aircraft, and ground turns.

CNAFR requires the live-training to be delivered annually to all CNAFR Aviation Maintenance production rates as part of their professional indoctrination training. Then Contractor live-training will also be delivered to Commanding Officers, Executive Officers, Command Master Chiefs, First Line Supervisors, and others in aviation maintenance leadership to solidify CNAFR intent throughout the chain of command.
