2.0 INTRODUCTION

This Performance Based Statement of Work (PBSOW) establishes the Government’s requirement for the awarded Contractor to provide Contractor Logistics Support, (CLS), Research, Development, Test and Evaluation (RDT&E) support and aircraft maintenance support and services on designated aircraft in direct support of The Presidential Helicopters Program Office, PMA-274. The program office has responsibility for providing current and future safe and timely helicopter transportation for the President and Vice President of the United States, heads of state and other official parties. The global nature of these commitments requires aircraft to deploy worldwide and operate in varying environmental and climatic conditions without mission degradation. A portion of the Program Manager’s tasking is to continually evaluate both legacy system sustainment and supportability requirements as emergent technologies, capabilities and modified mission needs are identified. The program office is required to support representative air vehicles utilized as Test and Evaluation assets.

The Direct/Indirect support are to perform organizational, intermediate, and depot level maintenance support and services. Currently these aircraft include heavily modified and unique NVH-3A and NSH-60F which will transition to support for the replacement helicopter system (VXX). The Contractor will also provide transient support and oversight for any of the primary aircraft assigned to HMX-1; i.e. VH-3D, VH-60N, MV-22, UH-60N and UH-3D, aircraft periodically hosted by PMA-274, as well as supporting the PMA-274 Program Manager. Services and support include, but are not limited to:

· Project maintenance and support in the form of fit checks, Engineering Investigations (EI), Trial Kit Installations (TKI), verification/installation of Technical Directives (TD) and Engineering Change Proposals (ECP).

· Flight Equipment and Upholstery Restoration support (Option CLIN X007).

· Power-plants and Test Cell operations support (Option CLIN X008).
