About this file

This is a Performance Work Statement (PWS) for Landing Craft Air Cushion (LCAC) corrosion control cleaning services for the U.S. Navy. The PWS establishes the comprehensive requirements and standards that contractors must follow to perform cleaning operations on Navy landing craft stationed at Assault Craft Unit FIVE (ACU 5) at Camp Pendleton, California. The statement of work is organized around Navy Maintenance Requirement Cards (MRCs) and includes detailed cleaning procedures, technical specifications, and performance standards for various LCAC components and systems. The PWS specifies the use of particular cleaning methods, materials, tools, and safety protocols to ensure effective corrosion control while maintaining the operational readiness and structural integrity of the air cushioned vehicles used for ship-to-shore transport of personnel, weapons, equipment, and cargo.

The PWS is directly referenced in RFQ N00244-26-Q-0027, a small business set-aside solicitation with a base year and three option years of 12-month performance periods each. Revision 1 of the PWS was issued as part of Amendment 02 to the solicitation, which also included a tools and materials table under each MRC instruction section and a corresponding spreadsheet detailing required equipment and supplies for contract performance.

20PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

CORROSION CONTROL CLEANING TEAM

ASSAULT CRAFT UNIT FIVE (ACU 5)

AT CAMP PENDLETON, CA

PART I – Introduction

1. General: This is a non-personal services contract for support services to conduct craft cleaning on the Landing Craft Air Cushion (LCAC) for Assault Craft Unit FIVE (ACU 5) aboard Camp Pendleton, CA. The Government shall not exercise any supervision or control over the contract service providers performing the services herein. Such contract service providers shall be accountable solely to the contractor who, in turn is responsible to the Government.

1.1. Description of Services/Introduction: The contractor shall conduct LCAC craft cleaning at ACU 5 as defined in this Performance Work Statement. The contractor shall employ a labor force, with the appropriate skills and abilities to meet contract requirements. The contractor shall supply all required cleaning materials and tools, as well all required cleaning equipment such as pressure washers. The contractor shall appropriately store and dispose of all generated hazardous waste in accordance with Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and all local containment and disposal requirements. The contractor shall be responsible for the safety and accountability of all its employees and provide all required personnel protective equipment.

1.2. Background: Assault Craft Unit FIVE (ACU 5), located at Camp Pendleton California, provides the operational commander with fully manned, trained, maintained and properly supported LCAC ready to conduct prompt, sustained combat and non-combat operations. The LCAC is an air cushioned vehicle for transporting, ship-to-shore and across the beach, personnel, weapons, equipment and cargo of the elements of the Marine Air-Ground Task Force. It is a high-speed, over-the-beach fully amphibious landing craft, capable of carrying a 75-ton payload. It is used to transport the weapons systems, equipment, cargo and personnel of the assault elements of the Marine Air-Ground Task Force from ship to shore and across the beach. LCAC can carry heavy payloads, such as an M-1A1 tank, at high speeds. The LCAC payload capacity and speed combine to significantly increase the ability of the Marine Ground Element to reach the shore. Air cushion technology allows this vehicle to reach more than 70 percent of the world's coastline, while only about 15 percent of that coastline is accessible by conventional landing craft.

The ACU 5 compound at Marine Corps Base (MCB) Camp Pendleton is an administrative, operational, training, and intermediate and depot level maintenance facility for the west coast contingent of the Navy LCAC program. It includes 108 acres of service roads, administrative buildings, machine and fabrication shops, 8 LCAC hangars, food service kitchen and dining facility, sleeping and shower facilities, 400,000-gallon fuel storage and delivery complex, LCAC control tower with associated communication systems, wash rack, concrete LCAC service apron, logistics and parts warehouse, an operational emergency response fire department facility, armory, and over 1,800 feet of beach front. Associated systems include: potable water, sewer, contaminated water reclamation and LCAC rinse facility, 400 Hz power provided to the apron and hangars, 100-foot apron lighting and compound security lighting, emergency diesel power generation, low pressure compressed air, fire detection and suppression prevention, physical security and cyber systems.

As a tenant command on the Marine Corps Base, Camp Pendleton, ACU 5 must work with and through the base facilities organization to schedule and conduct repairs, upgrades and any new construction, while working through many other challenging processes such as environmental impact studies.

Given the uniqueness of the LCAC and the fact most Sailors involved in maintenance come from ships and only serve one tour of duty in the LCAC community, they lack familiarity with the craft and its systems. The learning curve for personnel is steep and makes all tasks related to maintenance challenging and time consuming.

In addition to complex maintenance, the LCAC requires in-depth cleaning to prevent corrosion on its aluminum hull and components. Even when not operating on the water, LCACs, by virtue of being located on the coast, are subject to severe corrosion due to salt and sand intrusion. Corrosion damage on LCACs is the number one driver of Non-Mission Capable (NMC) status at ACU5 and causes thousands of hours of costly weld repairs each year. Deep cleaning to remove salt and sand is necessary to keep the craft operational.

1.3. Objective: The goal of this effort is to improve the readiness and performance of LCACs at ACU 5. This initiative will also inform and potentially guide stakeholders throughout the LCAC community to the possible future of corrosion control / abatement within the program. The goal is to provide continuity in the skill level and consistency in the results, ultimately leading to an increased level of material and mission readiness at ACU 5.

1.4. Scope: The required services will be rendered exclusively on LCACs and only when on the compound at ACU 5 at MCB Camp Pendleton, CA. The contractor shall provide the following services:

1.4.1. Cleaning of individual LCACs (approximately 20 per year)

1.5. Period of Performance:

5.2 LCAC Preservation.

5.2.1 After the LCAC has been cleaned, Navy personnel will conduct a corrosion control inspection of the entire craft from top-to-bottom, and forward-to-aft. The inspection typically takes 3-5 days. Material discrepancies shall be noted and logged by Government personnel. Minor preservation work, to include light scrubbing and sanding, shall be performed by the contractor. The contractor shall complete all cleaning, and conduct minor preservation for each LCAC by the end of the 5th day of the inspection.

5.2.1.1 Using non-abrasive cleaning tools such as Scotch Brite scrub pads, the contractor shall remove surface corrosion in selected areas of the craft as identified by the Navy inspection team.
5.2.1.2 The contractor’s team supervisor shall interface with the Corrosion Control Officer, monitor the inspection, and assign personnel as necessary to address the discrepancies as they are discovered and documented. The intent is for the contractor to be working on previously inspected areas of the LCAC while the inspection is continuing in other parts of the craft. The supervisor is NOT a dedicated cleaner and shall train and instruct the cleaners during the course of performance.
