PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

ENGINE ROOM CONTROL SYSTEMS MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR

ERCS R&M (collectively “ERCS” contract)

1.0 BACKGROUND

Military Sealift Command (MSC) owns and operates approximately 130 ships. These vessels fulfill various missions such as underway replenishment, oceanographic research, cable repair, roll-on/roll-off, container carriage, special mission, and dry and refrigerated cargo support. MSC’s Engineering Directorate is responsible for aspects of ship maintenance, repair, alteration; Subject Matter Expert (SME) engineering support; Root Cause Analysis (RCA); Safety; Damage Control; Environmental Program support; and various Shipboard Inspection Programs (SIP) to assess MSC fleet material readiness.

The 12 T-AO 187 Class vessels are currently equipped with a TANO Engine Room Console (ERC) System.

The T-AO ERC Obsolescence Mitigation Program is in the process of updating the TANO Data Acquisition and Control (TDAC) analog input cards and modernizing the Remote Terminal Unit (RTU) Input/Output (I/O) collection hardware and software communication throughout the vessel to a WAGO Commercial off the Shelf (COTS) System. The USNS SUPPLY system was built and designed by the following L3 subsidiaries:

L3 Westwood (control workstation and electrical interfaces to the switchboard); L3 Henschell (Data Acquisition Units); L3 Maritime Systems (software); and L3 MAPPS (engine controller).

2.0 SCOPE

The purpose of this Indefinite-Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) ERCS contract is to obtain MSC N7-authorized services and L3 parts for the T-AO 187 Class Vessels and the USNS Supply. The L3 Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) contractor and any approved MSC non-OEM certified companies shall provide repair and maintenance of the Machinery Plant Control and Monitoring System (MPCMS) and related subsystems onboard.

L3 Harris Technologies, Incorporated (L3H) equipment and software is currently installed on a multitude of MSC vessels, which include the T-AO Class and T-AOE USNS Supply. Throughout the contract performance period, L3H equipment may be installed onto new ships within the MSC fleet while other ships will be retired from service. Service and support under this Performance Work Statement (PWS) may be expanded to additional ships if needed.

MSC approved non-OEM equivalents or OEM Contractors are to provide, but are not limited to, parts to maintain and support shipboard equipment and the following maintenance services: routine/periodic/annual service; equipment grooms; corrective maintenance; shop maintenance; shop work; Shipboard Maintenance Assessment Readiness Testing (SMART) Inspections; Service Equipment Casualties; new/overhauled parts supply; training; upgrade and sustainment and; other related tasks. Per the “Competition in Contracting Act (CICA, 41 U.S. Code, Section 453,” requirement to consistently increase competition, MSC reserves the rights of having one or more “on ramp” solicitations during the five-year ordering period to seek and add MSC screened, capable contractors to this IDIQ.

See references for detailed tasks that may be required. Specific task descriptions and instructions shall be provided with each Delivery Order (DO) for parts, or Task Order (TO) (which may include parts) PWS issued under this contract. All requested work performed under this agreement needs to be in accordance with current Regulations of American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) and United States Coast Guard (USCG) following the most current authorized version of Classification Procedures.

Some TOs will include emergent work and require a quick proposal submittal of days or even hours. Some services may require short travel notice; other work may require a quick study or analysis.

If additional repairs are discovered during performance of a TO, the Contractor is to submit for KO concurrence a Condition Found Report (CFR), price quote, and estimate of additional time/parts required to accomplish the additional work. The KO must authorize each item of additional work or parts orders prior to commencement of work.

5.2.1.2 Commissioning: Some situations may arise due to scheduling or workload conflicts where the onsite shipboard service technical representative may be required to attend the vessel during the first part of a routine overhaul, and then depart. Then at an unspecified amount of time later, the onsite shipboard service technical representative shall return to the vessel to complete the tasks, attend dock trials, and ride sea trials, also referred to as Commissioning.

5.2.1.3 Sub-Contractor. The Contractor must notify and gain approval from the KO in conjunction with the Principle Port Engineer (PPE) if they intend to utilize Subcontractors to complete the TO/DO.

5.2.1.4 Availabilities. Each vessel may have a regularly scheduled annual maintenance

“availability” period requiring the attendance of shipboard technical support. This technical support is required to bring any special tools or computer hardware/software not normally found in a shipyard environment. As part of a TO/DO, provide a detailed list of industrial assistance required to perform inspections. Be specific in the manpower, rigging, and access required for each instance so that the PPE can plan to accommodate the necessary industrial support.

The MSC Chief Engineer, or his designated representative, will acknowledge receipt and validate work performed to the KO.

5.2.1.9 Regarding the need for equipment Groom Contractor(s) need to prepare a test plan delineating all tests to be performed on core system components and functions to be assessed during performance of the shipboard groom. Additional parts may be required for upgrades or system modifications due to obsolete parts

5.2.1.11 Any additional requirement items other than a Groom that are not listed above, shall be pre-defined & detailed separately in the TO/DO. If these items are not detailed in the TO/DO, then are subject to a Contract Change Order (CCO).

5.2.1.12 Provide the services of a Shipboard Technical Representative leading up to and during dock and sea trials in the presence of Regulatory Bodies for Commissioning to demonstrate and verify proper operation of ship’s automation.

5.2.1.13 Any additional requirement items other than a Commissioning that are not listed above, shall be pre-defined & detailed separately in the TO/DO. If these items are not detailed in the TO/DO, then are subject to a Contract Change Order (CCO).

5.2.1.14 SMART Team Inspection Preparation and Demonstration. Provide Technician services to perform grooming and demonstration of the ship’s automation system in support of the ship’s SMART inspection. Any material required to be replaced due to faulty conditions found will be provided for through proper TO modification procedures.
