STATEMENT OF WORK

1. INTRODUCTION:

Naval Surface Warfare Center Philadelphia Division (NSWCPD) Code 421 is designated as the Lifecycle Manager (LCM) and In-Service Engineering Agent (ISEA) for US Navy diesel engines. The LCM and ISEA mission involves maintaining adequate and effective operational readiness, safety and mission effectiveness of US Navy diesel engines and their associated auxiliary systems. Additionally, NSWCPD works collaboratively and synergistically with Military Sealift Command (MSC) and the United States Coast Guard (USCG) to address lifecycle and in-service issues related to MSC and USCG shipboard diesel engine systems. In support of this mission, NSWCPD provides engineered solutions to fleet diesel problems.

Diesel Engine Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) design, construct, install, service, support and provide repair and replacement parts for the engines under their purview. They possess certain unique knowledge, experience and expertise, and access to technical information that is not available elsewhere.

In support of its Diesel Engine LCM and ISEA mission, NSWCPD intends to leverage off the contractor’s unique knowledge, experience and expertise, and access to technical information related to the engine lines listed in Appendix 1, for the purpose of improving in-service and lifecycle support initiatives. The contractor will assist NSWCPD in developing, delivering and executing engineered solutions to fleet diesel problems.

2. BACKGROUND INFORMATION:

Virtually all mechanical equipment needs continuing engineering support to solve operational problems. Military systems require a higher level of engineering support than commercial equivalent systems. The military systems normally push the leading edge of technology and are subjected to ever-changing and demanding environments and mission cycles. New problems are continually experienced after approval for operational use. The new problems are a result of greater exposure, changes in mission, changes in system weight or configuration, variations in manufacture or repair, aging of the hardware, maintenance concept changes, critical materials availability, and changing component coating and fuel compounds. (i.e.: Bio-Fuel technologies and similar advances). These changes in engine usage can be dramatic and can have a dramatic impact on safety, readiness, and mission effectiveness. Therefore, a direct contract relationship with diesel engine OEMs is essential to maintain these systems at full operational capability

3. SCOPE:
