1.1 BACKGROUND
NSWCPD Code 532, as the In-Service Engineering Agent (ISEA) for Condition Based Maintenance (CBM) assessment systems, requires support in the development, implementation and in-service maintenance of comprehensive, integrated condition-based assessment and continuous monitoring programs for surface ship equipment and systems. These efforts aim at achieving significant and real reductions in maintenance expenditures and increased equipment availability, while maintaining the operational survivability of naval ships and submarines. Program goals are to support total productive maintenance in a realistic waterfront effort that considers all aspects of system/equipment operation, maintenance, and logistics support. To execute its responsibilities, NSWCPD requires the support of maintenance engineering specialists to assist in the development, implementation, and in-service support of CBM software and cybersecurity requirements. This support requires responsive and high-quality services that only a specialized contractor can provide.
1.2 SCOPE OF WORK
The contractor shall provide software engineering, technical, logistics, training, and program support and sustainment for the development, prototyping, implementation and in-service support of Condition Based Maintenance (CBM) assessment technologies for naval ship systems on surface ship and submarine hulls for the Machinery Enterprise Information Systems Branch.
