vi Performance Work Statement For

CV/CMV/MV-22

Integrated Maintenance Concept (IMC) Planned Maintenance Interval (PMI)

INTRODUCTION

This Performance Work Statement (PWS) provides the framework of the general tasks to be performed under the CV/CMV/MV-22 Integrated Maintenance Concept (IMC) Planned Maintenance Interval (PMI) Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Contract. The Fleet Readiness Center Western Pacific (FRC WESTPAC) will procure both scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) products and services within the scope of this contract through Task Orders (TOs) placed under this IDIQ contract. The tasks and detailed requirements for each aircraft provided in this Performance Work Statement (PWS), NAVAIR CV/CMV/MV-22 IMC PMI Requirements Specification, and in related documents accompanying each TO. A Statement of Objectives (SOO) may also be used. While there are differences between the CV-22, CMV-22, and the MV-22 aircraft, for the purposes of this document, CV/CMV/MV-22 and V-22 are considered equivalent.

Contract Goals and objectives FRC WESTPAC goals and objectives are to acquire depot-level aircraft MRO products and services for forward-deployed CV/CMV/MV-22 Type/Model/Series (T/M/S) aircraft. FRC WESTPAC intent is to award the IDIQ contract to a pool of highly qualified Contractors possessing required business practices and technical capabilities in order to increase the responsiveness and flexibility of the V-22 fleet.

Method of tasking The U.S. Government (USG) requirements issued under the IDIQ contract will be met through individual TO. Individual TO will be issued based on two different approaches: 1) the PWS/Statement of Work (SOW) approach, and 2) the SOO approach. These two approaches are described in 1.2.1 and 1.2.2 below.

PWS/SOW approach In instances where the performance objectives are clearly defined, the USG approach will be to issue a TO based on a PWS or SOW. Under the PWS approach, the USG will prepare a TO utilizing this PWS or a descriptive SOW to specify the work to be accomplished. Under the PWS approach, the NAVAIR CV/CMV/MV-22 IMC PMI Requirements Specification, related Depot Level Maintenance (DLM) Specification Interim Change Notices (SICNs), and the Contract Data Requirements List (CDRL) items (DD Forms 1423) referenced in this PWS specify the measurable results and outcomes. The USG will also provide other required TO documentation to the Contractor as appropriate.

SOO approach In the instances where the performance objectives are within the broad scope of this PWS but are not directly required by the NAVAIR CV/CMV/MV-22 IMC PMI Requirements Specification, the SOO approach will be used. The SOO approach is most likely to be used for urgent, emergent, or unscheduled aircraft maintenance needs. The SOO will describe the top-level objectives of the individual TO from which the Contractor may propose innovative alternatives. In addition to the SOO, the USG may include separate product performance requirements. The USG may also include a set of minimum data item requirements for the TO in the form of CDRL items (DD Forms 1423). The SOO approach provides the Contractor with flexibility to propose innovative approaches to satisfy the USG’s requirements. The Contractor's response to the SOO also demonstrates the Contractor's understanding of the effort to be performed. When the TO is awarded, a PWS or Statement of Work (SOW) based on the Contractor prepared-documentation shall replace the USG-prepared SOO.

Scope of PWS This PWS defines the requirement for Contractor performance of V-22 PMI, as well as other V-22 MRO tasks for both inducted and non-inducted aircraft. In general, requirements include inspections, maintenance and repair in accordance with the Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) CV/CMV/MV-22 IMC PMI specification, and associated MRO requirements. Additional requirements outside the scope of the IMC PMI specification include In-Service Repairs (ISR)/Drop-In Repairs (DIR), decontamination after operations in radioactive environments, customer service (squadron-funded requirements), aircraft modification, airframe change, and management, maintenance & repair of Government-Furnished Equipment (GFE). The NAVAIR CV/CMV/MV-22 IMC PMI Requirements Specification and associated documentation is herein referred to as the NAVAIR V-22 PMI Specification.

Background of USMC MV-22 and USN CV/CMV-22 United States Marine Corps (USMC) MV-22 and United States Navy (USN) CMV-22 aircraft supported under this contract are forward deployed and perform a variety of missions throughout the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command (USINDOPACOM) Area of Responsibility (AOR). The MV-22 are assigned to First Marine Aircraft Wing (1stMAW) squadrons aboard Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) Futenma, in Okinawa, Japan. These squadrons provide combat operational support to the armed forces of the United States and its allies, and provide Humanitarian Assistance and Disaster Relief (HADR) wherever required. These aircraft operate in all weather conditions during expeditionary, joint, and combined operations. Routine operation in harsh environments result in the need for significant upkeep to maintain the aircraft in a state of operational readiness, Operations in radioactive environments have also occurred in this AOR.

V-22 aircraft from other USMC and USN components and other Department of Defense Services may also utilize this IDIQ contract.

Explanation of USG Responsibilities and Relationships The Fleet Logistics Center Yokosuka (FLCY), FRC WESTPAC, and the Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) are the USG entities authorized to guide and/or direct the Contractor in the management and execution of this IDIQ and/or TOs. See Attachment (2) for a detailed explanation of USG responsibilities and relationships to include authority references. Other USG entities not included herein are not authorized to direct the Contractor in any way. For the purposes of this document, the Program Management Office (PMO) is FRC WESTPAC.

SCHEDULED AND UNSCHEDULED REQUIREMENTS

The requirements defined herein form the basis for MRO work performed for the USG as a part of this V-22 IMC PMI IDIQ contract. These requirements are categorized as “scheduled maintenance/basic requirement” which are the PMI tasks, and “unscheduled maintenance” which are any maintenance tasks identified outside of the specific PMI inspection requirements in NAVAIR V-22 PMI Specification other than defects in areas not normally accessed by organizational level personnel. The Contractor shall accept scheduled and unscheduled requirements as required by the USG.

Scheduled Maintenance/Basic Requirement - Planned Maintenance Interval (PMI) The Contractor shall perform the PMI scheduled maintenance as the basic requirement in accordance with the NAVAIR V-22 PMI Specification and released Depot Level Maintenance (DLM) Specification Interim Change Notices (SICN).

Induction of the Aircraft Induction occurs when the USG has delivered the aircraft, completed its reporting custodian responsibilities, and has made the aircraft available for the Contractor to begin work. The date of induction will be recorded as the day immediately following the USG delivery of the aircraft, unless otherwise established in the task order. V-22 inductions for aircraft configurations outside the NAVAIR V-22 PMI Specification will be coordinated by DCMA at least five (5) calendar days prior to the induction date.

The USG will make reasonable efforts to deliver aircraft no later than 1600, Monday through Friday. However, the Contractor shall receive aircraft at any time required by the USG.

Declassification of the aircraft will be completed by the USG prior to induction. The Contractor shall not perform operational checks on mission related systems that require classified equipment to perform such checks. If an aircraft is inducted with classified equipment installed, the Contractor shall immediately stop work on the aircraft and notify DCMA and FRC WESTPAC Integrated Product Team Lead (IPTL). The IPTL will ensure that the classified equipment is removed by qualified USG personnel, then notify DCMA when the aircraft is ready for the Contractor to recommence work.

During the aircraft induction, the Contractor and USG shall complete a joint aircraft inventory check, conduct a screening analysis of the logbook and aircraft records, and verify any recorded defects. The Contractor shall perform induction screening of aircraft logbooks per COMNAVAIRFORINST 4790.2C to identify high time components and unincorporated Technical Directives (TDs). The contractor shall notify DCMA and IPTL of any high time components discovered and any outstanding TDs.

The Contractor shall complete the engine and propeller inspection and preservation after aircraft induction or removal of the engine from a shipping container. The Contractor shall immediately notify DCMA and IPTL of unserviceable engines or of engines with major discrepancies. Unserviceable engines shall be removed from the aircraft and replaced in accordance with normal maintenance procedures by the Contractor. If an unserviceable engine can be made serviceable by use of organizational-level repair procedures, DCMA may negotiate with the Contractor to perform this task. The Contractor shall perform minor maintenance of aircraft engines (blending, removing and replacing engines, etc.) in accordance with applicable maintenance instructions.

The Contractor shall submit the following reports as required:

· Technical Directives Requirement 10 Day Report (CDRL A001)

· Discrepant Part on Induction Report (CDRL A004)

Cleaning/Preservation The Contractor shall perform aircraft washing and preservation in accordance with the NAVAIR V-22 PMI Specification and any applicable instructions.

Surface Conditioning of the Aircraft Surface conditioning consists of cleaning the aircraft, stripping the painted surfaces, removing corrosion, then painting the aircraft. The Contractor shall perform disassembly as required to complete this task. The Contractor shall provide the required facilities for the clean, strip and paint processes and shall comply with hazardous material handling requirements during this phase.

Disassembly of the Aircraft The goal for disassembly is to gain access to the portions of the aircraft that require inspection. The Contractor shall remove parts, components, structures, and substructures necessary to complete the requirements of the V-22 PMI inspection and evaluation. This includes the removal of additional components needed to investigate suspected damage. Disassembly is normally limited to the removal of bolts and screws. However, removal of rivets or high strength fasteners may be required to determine the extent of corrosion or permit inspection for suspected damage. Discrepancies discovered during disassembly shall be recorded and reported to DCMA and IPTL in accordance with paragraph 3.1.10.1 below.

Inspection/Evaluation of the Aircraft The Contractor shall perform a thorough and comprehensive inspection of selected aircraft structures and flight critical components by visual and appropriate non-destructive inspection (NDI) methods as described in the NAVAIR V-22 PMI Specification. This includes zones as defined in the NAVAIR V-22 PMI Specification as well as systems, components, and structures. The Contractor shall complete the mandatory non-destructive inspections and the flight-hour-based non-destructive inspections. All discrepancies discovered during this phase shall be recorded and reported to DCMA and IPTL in accordance with paragraph 3.1.10.1 below.

The Contractor shall identify and requisition all required repair parts and materials as early as possible to ensure completion of the PMI within the prescribed Turn Around Time in paragraph 4.2.1 below. Requests for USG engineering support shall be submitted periodically as the need for such requests are discovered and developed in accordance with paragraph 5.4 below.

The Contractor shall submit the following reports as required:

· Production Plan (CDRL A005)

· Scheduled Removal Cards Report (CDRL A007)

· Examiner and Evaluator (E&E) Discrepancy Report (CDRL A009)

· Non-Destructive Inspection (NDI) Report (CDRL A013)

· AVDLR Tracker Report (CDRL B001)

· Aircraft Awaiting Parts Report (CDRL B002)

· Daily Requisition Report (CDRL B009)

Maintenance, Repair, and Reassembly of Aircraft The Contractor shall perform repairs of systems, components, and structures in accordance with the NAVAIR V-22 PMI Specification and authorized Authoritative Engineering Documents (AED). The Contractor shall complete adjustments, checks, tests, repairs, component rework, preventative maintenance, and coincidental rework procedures per the applicable directives and publications.

After aircraft repairs have been accomplished, the Contractor shall reassemble the aircraft in accordance with the NAVAIR V-22 PMI Specification and other applicable documents. Such reassembly includes installation of parts or components and reinstallation of non-operational parts or components that were reported as ‘noted but not corrected” (see paragraph 3.2.1) as directed by the IPTL.

The Contractor shall ensure that parts and components either provided by or purchased by the USG are installed on the aircraft for which they were procured, unless otherwise permitted by the IPTL.

Repetitive Maintenance Related to Scheduled Maintenance/Basic Requirement Maintenance tasks that occur multiple times in the performance of scheduled maintenance/basic requirement (typically at least three times) may be considered “repetitive” maintenance. The USG may negotiate additional fixed prices for these frequently occurring maintenance tasks. The Contractor shall complete repetitive maintenance upon receipt of a task order issued by DCMA. There are no pre-defined repetitive maintenance tasks on this IDIQ contract. All repetitive maintenance items will be documented in this paragraph and negotiated into the contract as the repetitive tasks are identified.

Other Repetitive Maintenance Other repetitive maintenance tasks may include typical maintenance tasks that are outside the NAVAIR V-22 PMI Specification. Other repetitive maintenance tasks may be incorporated by negotiated modifications to the contract. Such modifications will be initiated when the USG determines that a task is severable from the routine requirements of the NAVAIR V-22 PMI Specification, is anticipated to occur frequently in the future, and has an established price history (usually two to three occurrences). These changes will be negotiated by DCMA with the Contractor prior to allocating costs on the contract.

Final Processing During final processing, the Contractor shall perform weight and balance of the aircraft, update the logbooks and ensure the inventory recorded at induction is returned to the aircraft in accordance with the NAVAIR V-22 PMI Specification Section 3-1 and other applicable documents except as noted in paragraph 3.1.7.2 below.

The Contractor shall furnish the USG with two (2) paper copies of aircraft sell package, one (1) copy on disk, and one (1) electronic copy emailed to DCMA and the IPTL.

The Contractor shall submit the following as the aircraft sell package as required:

· Technical Directives Report (CDRL A002)

· Scheduled Removal Cards Report (CDRL A007)

· Noted but Not Corrected (NBNC) Report (CDRL A010)

· Maintenance History Summary Report (CDRL A012)

· Noted and Corrected (NAC) Report (CDRL A014)

· Special Work Request Report (CDRL A015)

· PMI Man-hour/Material Cost Report (CDRL A016)

Aircraft Weight and Balance (AWB) The Contractor shall perform Aircraft Weight and Balance (AWB) in accordance with the COMNAVAIRFORINST 4790.2C_series and NAVAIR 01-1B-50_series instructions. The Contractor shall perform aircraft weighing using only approved platform scales. The Contractor shall verify platform scales used for AWB are certified and calibrated at time of use. The Contractor shall provide Chart A, Form B, Chart C, and Form F if a static version of Automated Weight and Balance System (AWBS) is made available by the USG. The Contractor shall update the Aircraft Custodian’s Weight and Balance Binder, including provision of an updated computer disk.

Prior to assigning new technicians to participate in AWB duties on a USG aircraft, the Contractor shall notify the Government Ground Representative (GGR) in writing and provide copies of training and certification documents.

The Contractor shall submit the following reports as required:

· Weight and Balance Reports (CDRL A011)

Operational Checks The Contractor shall perform all flight critical systems checks, operational checks, alignment, and rigging as required by the NAVAIR V-22 PMI Specification and for systems disturbed during contract performance regardless of system status upon induction. The Contractor shall also update logs and records, inventory equipment, sample hydraulic system, and service aircraft. Any inspections required for flight, such as the daily inspection, shall be completed based on the timeline for USG Functional Check Flight (FCF) crew arrival. This includes preflight and prestart checks, but does not include engine start, taxi or run-up. The Contractor is NOT authorized to start the engines, taxi the aircraft, or conduct any form of flight. All engine turn, taxi, and flight operations will be conducted by USG aircrew.

Functional Check Flight (FCF) V-22 FCFs shall be performed at the Contractor’s facility at the completion of PMI scheduled maintenance and prior to USG acceptance of the aircraft. The USG will provide the qualified aircrew to perform FCF. Contractor support during FCF shall include, but is not limited to, the following:

a. Provide appropriate ground turn, takeoff, landing, and forward flight coordination

b. All inspections required for flight

c. All repairs required for safety of flight

d. All required aircraft servicing

e. Firefighting and other airfield services

f. Post-flight inspections

The Contractor shall support FCF for each day that FCF is scheduled without interruption by weekends or designated holidays. On‐going FCF activities that extend outside normal business hours, including overtime, weekends, and holidays, regardless of responsible party, shall be supported by the Contractor when requested by DCMA or IPTL.

Discrepancies discovered during FCF shall be repaired in accordance with NAVAIR V-22 PMI Specification Section 2-1.

Government Acceptance Upon successful completion of PMI scheduled maintenance and FCF, the Contractor shall submit the DD250 to DCMA with the completed aircraft sell package per paragraph 3.1.7 above. USG personnel will reinstall classified, confidential and sensitive equipment.

Scheduled Maintenance/Basic Requirement - Miscellaneous Scheduled Maintenance/Basic Requirement Defects/Discrepancies Discrepancies can be discovered during any phase of the PMI scheduled maintenance by both the USG and Contractor personnel. The following are some examples of activities that can be used to identify scheduled maintenance requirements:

a. Review of aircraft logbooks and records

b. Operational and functional testing of systems

c. Examination of the aircraft and its associated components during PMI

d. Failure during fleet operational activities where the repair is outside of organic capabilities including crash damaged/battle damaged aircraft

Upon identification of a discrepancy, the Contractor shall use the criteria in the NAVAIR V-22 PMI Specification Section 2-1 and sub-paragraphs to classify each discrepancy and establish the defect correction criteria. Defects and/or discrepancies that meet the criteria in NAVAIR V-22 PMI Specification Section 2-1.4.1.a and b shall be considered part of Scheduled Maintenance/Basic Requirement. The Contractor’s defect classification and correction criteria shall be subject to review by DCMA.

The Contractor shall be responsible for the safety of the aircraft and the correction of discrepancies which are directly related to the specific inspection requirements until the aircraft is returned to the USG per NAVAIR V-22 PMI Specification paragraph 3-1.14. The Contractor shall correct all Scheduled Maintenance/Basic Requirement discrepancies. Discrepancies that result from the Contractor’s negligence shall be corrected at the Contractor’s expense.

Fueling/Defueling The Contractor shall defuel all V-22 aircraft brought to its facility for PMI in accordance with the NAVAIR V-22 PMI Specification and any other applicable instructions (e.g., NAVAIR 01-1A-35). The Contractor shall provide fuel for V-22 FCFs, V-22 return flights after completion of PMI, and return flights of other military aircraft flown to the Contractor's facility for the purpose of supporting and administering the contract.

The Contractor shall only use JP-5 or JP-8 fuel in support of the V-22. The Contractor shall credit the value of fuel removed from PMI aircraft at induction against the fuel provided to the USG under the same task order. The Contractor shall not bill the USG for fuel disposal costs.

The Contractor shall test all fuel removed from inducted PMI aircraft to ensure proper storage or disposition. The Contractor shall follow a certified commercial standard for fuel testing that either meets or exceeds the requirements of NAVAIR 00-80-T-109 and shall ensure that all fuel provided to the USG meets the required quality standards. The Contractor shall not hold the USG liable for cross-contamination between fuel removed from an inducted PMI aircraft and any fuel stored in bulk at either the Contractor's or a sub-contractor facility.

The USG will not provide fueling/defueling vehicles nor oil vehicles under this contract.

Other Aircraft Services The Contractor shall provide support for the USG to procure other general aircraft services for aircraft visiting the Contractor’s facility, to include procurement of Liquid Oxygen (LOX) and nitrogen. These other aircraft services will be requested and negotiated by DCMA on an as-needed basis.

Aircraft Records Maintenance The Contractor shall screen, maintain, and update the aircraft logbook and records throughout all PMI phases in accordance with the NAVAIR V-22 PMI Specification and COMNAVAIRFORINST 4790.2C. The Contractor shall provide to the IPTL and DCMA the information required for compliance with NAVAIR V-22 PMI Specification.

Unscheduled Maintenance Requirements The Contractor shall perform modifications and repairs in support of unscheduled maintenance requests. Unscheduled maintenance requirements are those required tasks identified during PMI which are not related to a specific PMI inspection requirement per NAVAIR V-22 PMI Specification Section 1-1.1.d. Requests for unscheduled maintenance can come from a variety of sources to include any US military service component or ally who fly a V-22 T/M/S aircraft. These aircraft include all V-22 aircraft in the USG inventory, crash and battle damaged aircraft, and Foreign Military Sales (FMS) aircraft.

Unscheduled maintenance can be initiated in several ways such as discovery during any PMI phase, request from the operational fleet, or an emergent, urgent need. Unscheduled maintenance requirements are further divided into four (4) subcategories:

a. Over and Above (O&A) Not Specified in PMI Requirement

b. In-Service Repairs (ISR)

c. Customer Service Requests (CSR)

d. Technical Directives (TDs) and Modifications

The Contractor’s defect classification and correction criteria for all unscheduled tasks shall be subject to review by the IPTL and approval by DCMA.

Over and Above (O&A) Not Specified in PMI Requirement Defects and/or discrepancies that meet the criteria in NAVAIR V-22 PMI Specification Section 2-1.4.1.c, d, e, f, and g may be considered to be an O&A task. Defects and/or discrepancies that are not in the scope of the PMI Specification shall be adjudicated on a case-by-case basis to determine if they can be included as an O&A task.

Discrepancies discovered within the 18” radius (other than the specific Scheduled Maintenance inspection requirement) as defined in NAVAIR V-22 PMI Specification shall be considered to be an O&A task.

The Contractor shall require approval from DCMA to proceed with the repair of any O&A task. The Contractor shall initiate an O&A repair process with DCMA with emphasis on rapidly processing the modification in order to start work as soon as possible. O&A repairs requiring greater than 200 man-hours to complete shall be reviewed by the IPTL before sending the O&A request to DCMA. DCMA will review and negotiate these requests on a case-by-case basis prior to authorizing the Contractor to commence work.

The Contractor shall be responsible for the safety of the aircraft and the correction of discrepancies which are negotiated and approved as O&A until the aircraft is returned to the USG per NAVAIR V-22 PMI Specification paragraph 3-1.14.

The discrepancies classified as intermediate- or organizational-level may be further classified as “noted but not corrected” (NBNC) using the guidelines in the NAVAIR V-22 PMI Specification. The Contractor shall present all candidate defects that can classified as NBNC to the IPTL for approval of the NBNC classification. The USG may elect to have Contractor correct the O- or I-level discrepancies; this will be negotiated by DCMA.

The Contractor shall submit the following report as required:

· Noted But Not Corrected (NBNC) Report (CDRL A010) In-Service Repairs (ISR) In-Service Repair requests typically come from the operational fleet or the V-22 T/M/S program office for work that either supplements or is beyond the capability of the component requesting the service. ISRs include, but are not limited to, tasks similar to the following:

a. Miscellaneous aircraft services

b. Corrosion control; rework

c. Drop-in repair; parts manufacturing

d. Management of radioactive materials and radioactive decontamination of aircraft The Contractor shall perform ISRs as negotiated with DCMA. Task orders for ISR work can be issued for both inducted and non-inducted aircraft. If the Contractor receives an ISR request directly from a component other than DCMA or PMO, the Contractor shall respond by forwarding the request to DCMA and IPTL for adjudication. DCMA will negotiate with the Contractor to incorporate ISR tasks into the task order.

It is common for ISR requests to require support at a forward-deployed location. See CFT support requirement at paragraph 5.2.2.

Customer Service Request (CSR) Customer Service Requests typically come from the operational fleet or the V-22 T/M/S program office for work that either supplements or is beyond the capability of the component requesting the service. CSRs include, but are not limited to, task similar to the following:

a. Special and phase inspections

b. Organizational and intermediate level services (including minor aircraft repairs and repair or manufacturing of parts and components)

c. Support equipment repair

d. Aircraft component or part repair

e. Application of non-standard paint finishes and color schemes The Contractor shall support CSRs as negotiated with DCMA. Task orders for CSR work can be issued for both inducted and non-inducted aircraft. If the Contractor receives a CSR directly from a component other than DCMA or PMO, the Contractor shall respond by forwarding the request to DCMA and IPTL for adjudication. DCMA will negotiate with the Contractor to incorporate CSRs into the task order prior to any work being performed.

Technical Directives (TD) and Aircraft Modifications.

It is common to incorporate TDs and approved aircraft modifications concurrent with PMI scheduled maintenance. The Contractor shall incorporate authorized TDs and aircraft modifications as negotiated in the associated task order. Place of performance may be at either the Contractor’s facility or at other locations as identified in the task order. The Contractor shall notify DCMA and IPTL when an extended contract delivery date (CDD) is required in order to complete a TD or aircraft modification, or if the CDD of a PMI aircraft will be delayed by Contractor performance required to complete a TD or aircraft modification.

The USG will normally provide modification kits, special materials, and special support equipment listed in the TD or aircraft modification instruction. In the event that the USG cannot provide such items, DCMA may negotiate with the Contractor to procure or manufacture the items.

The Contractor shall submit the following reports as required:

· Technical Directives Requirement 10 Day Report (CDRL A001)

· Technical Directives Report (CDRL A002)

· TDC Kit Receipt and Report of Kit Discrepancy (CDRL A003)

USG PRIORITIES

Quality, schedule, and safety are the USG priorities. The Contractor shall reflect these priorities in its execution of the contract requirements.

Quality Contractor’s Quality Control Program The Contractor shall comply with ISO 9001:2015 or equivalent requirements applicable to this ID/IQ. The Contractor shall implement a Quality Control Program establishing effective and efficient procedures for ensuring the quality of work performed under this contract. At a minimum, the Program shall specify the area(s) to be inspected on both a scheduled and unscheduled basis, frequency of inspections, and the title and organizational placement of the inspector(s). The Program shall also provide a description of the methods to be used for identifying, correcting, and preventing unacceptable performance. The Contractor shall generate and keep records documenting inspections and corrective or preventative actions taken. Records of inspections shall be kept and made available to the USG throughout the contract performance period and for the period after contract completion until final settlement of any claims under this contract.

Work Deck Validation Requirement Upon request from DCMA, the Contractor shall allow the V-22 FST to review and concur with initial work decks prior to the induction of the first PMI aircraft.

Ten (10) days prior to the scheduled start of FCF, the Contractor shall provide work decks to the USG QAR for validation that all items were correctly stamped and certified as work complete.

USG Quality Assurance Representative (QAR) The USG will assign a QAR who will be responsible for implementing DCMA INST 309 and performing quality assurance surveillance of the Contractor. The QAR will evaluate the Contractor’s Quality Control Program including an annual assessment of the effectiveness of Contractor’s Quality Control processes. The QAR will provide oversight and approve the inspection and verification of safety of flight, critical safety items, and select additional areas as identified by the USG pertinent to DCMA MAN 8201-2 and DCMA INST 8210.1C Change 1.

USG Quality Assurance Plan (QASP) The USG will monitor the Contractor’s performance in accordance with the QASP in Attachment (3). The Contractor shall abide by the QASP. The QASP is the primary process for the COR to perform contract surveillance functions and is distinct from the function performed by the USG QAR. A Surveillance Matrix is part of the Contract QASP and identifies performance objectives, performance standards, and surveillance methods that the USG will apply in its surveillance. The contents of the QASP and Surveillance Matrix are subject to revision at any time deemed appropriate by the USG. The USG reserves the right to survey all services called for in the contract and task orders. The absence of any contract requirement from the Surveillance Matrix shall not detract from its enforceability nor limit the rights or remedies of the USG under any other provision of the contract.

Corrective Action Plan (CAP) Within 10 days of receipt of a Corrective Action Request (CAR) from the GFR or GGR, the Contractor shall submit a CAP in accordance with DCMA MAN 8201-2 and DCMA INST 8210.1C Change 1. The CAP shall include the cause of the defect and the preventative measure(s) implemented to prevent any future occurrence.

If the Contractor fails to take necessary action to ensure future performance of the contract requirements, the USG may negotiate adequate consideration or enact other remedies as allowed by the contract and USG regulations.

Aircraft Acceptance Inspection Deficiency Report (AIDR) COMNAVAIRFORINST 4790.2C states the reporting custodian of the aircraft will submit the initial AIDR within five (5) calendar days after completion of the USG acceptance of FCF, then submit a supplemental AIDR 30 calendar days after USG acceptance of FCF, if required. The AIDR is used to document any deficiencies discovered after acceptance that may indicate faulty workmanship. The COR will review all AIDR findings to verify whether the deficiencies identified are indicative of faulty workmanship or nonconformance to the requirements of the contract which may result in Contractor correction or re-performance.

Contractor Correction or Re-performance under Warranty of Service Clause The Contractor shall correct, at no additional cost to the USG, all discrepancies identified in the AIDR and verified by the DCMA and the COR to be Contractor responsibility. The corrections or re-performance associated with the final AIDR disposition report shall be completed within ten (10) calendar days of receipt of notice. This may require the Contractor to travel to aircraft custodian’s location if the USG determines that it is unsafe or uneconomical to return the aircraft to the maintenance facility at the contract place of performance. If the Contractor corrects a deficiency and it is later determined that the Contractor was not at fault, DCMA will modify the task order to provide adequate consideration reimbursing the Contractor for its efforts. If the Contractor is unable to perform the work (e.g., due to the location of the aircraft) DCMA may take appropriate action, including modification of the task order to seek adequate consideration or seeking actual damages against the Contractor. Contract clause 52.246-20 Warranty of Services shall apply.

Schedule Turn Around Time (TAT) Expectation Turn Around Time (TAT) is one of the USG Key Performance Parameters (KPP) and is the most objective indication of the Contractor’s ability to successfully perform the requirements of this contract. The TAT is expressed in terms of calendar days. The Contractor bears the full responsibility and accountability for achieving the TAT. The Contractor shall plan, perform and manage its work to accomplish all scheduled and unscheduled services within the following TAT:

A “calendar day” is defined as the 24-hour period beginning at one second after midnight (00:00:01 a.m.) and ending on the following midnight (00:00:00). Calendar days include all weekdays (Sunday through Saturday), regardless of any other categorization such as holiday, weekday, weekend, workday, etc.

TAT shall begin on the day the aircraft is inducted and end after the completion of a FCF when the USG accepts the aircraft as recorded on the signed DD250. The USG reserves the right to change the TAT throughout the life of the contract. These changes will be negotiated with the contractor.

When DCMA requests the Contractor perform additional work beyond the scheduled maintenance basic requirement that cannot reasonably be accomplished within the TAT, the Contractor may negotiate an increase to TAT. DCMA may grant TAT extensions to accommodate delays related to completion of FCF that are caused by circumstances beyond the Contractor’s control. The Contractor shall ensure that any other work requested on non-inducted aircraft (e.g., CSR or ISR requirements) will not affect the TAT of an inducted PMI aircraft.

If the Contractor has not previously performed PMI on the V-22 aircraft, the first induction will be considered a prototype with emphasis on validating processes, developing workforce capability and identifying efficiency opportunities. Up to 25% variance from the TAT shall be allowable without incurring liquidated damages. Additional variance may be established at DCMA discretion where the Contractor is clearly performing all tasks in good faith.

Workload Expectation The Contractor shall be capable of supporting a nominal workload of two (2) to three (3) V-22 PMI aircraft simultaneously in flow. The USG will provide the V-22 induction plan on regular intervals to facilitate workload planning.

Surge Capacity Expectation The Contractor shall be capable of supporting surge capacity workload of four (4) to seven (7) aircraft simultaneously in flow (nominal workload plus surge). Surge capacity applies to both scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, and includes all necessary docks, space, tools, equipment and workforce manning.

Surge aircraft are those inducted for PMI in addition to the nominal workload. If the USG inducts more than three (3) aircraft into simultaneous flow, the fourth and subsequent inducted aircraft shall be designated as a surge aircraft for the duration that there is more than three (nominal) aircraft in flow. Surge requirements will be negotiated on a case-by-case basis. Surge aircraft will be subject to MAC task order competition. The Contractor may negotiate additional TAT for the surge aircraft.

When aircraft are inducted into Contractor facility for emergency drop‐in repair and maintenance, the Contractor shall coordinate with DCMA and the IPTL to establish workload priorities for drop-in aircraft and PMI aircraft already in work. When directed by DCMA, the Contractor shall, to the maximum extent feasible, increase production processing and/or capacity to accomplish drop-in and/or other O&A work requirements in accordance with the USG delivery schedule objectives/requirements. The Contractor shall take efforts to minimize delays to the delivery schedule of aircraft already in work.
