Section C - Descriptions and Specifications

1.0 INTRODUCTION

This Statement of Work (SOW) provides Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division – Ship

Systems Engineering Station (NSWCCD-SSES) the ability to support various sponsors and stakeholders for various Navy Modernization Programs utilizing the Alteration Installation Team (AIT) process. This effort shall provide blue collar installation and technical services for upgrading Hull, Mechanical and

Electrical (HM&E) systems and deploying technologies which improve availability, increase reliability, ship mission readiness, and decrease maintenance and workload requirements for machinery systems and components. The target platforms of installation are primarily on U.S. Navy Surface Ships, Carriers, Submarines and Service Craft. In addition to the active and reserve U.S. Navy ships, this contract also supports HM&E upgrades on Foreign Military Sales (FMS) platforms, Army watercraft, Military Sealift

Command (MSC), land-based test sites, and other DOD platforms. This SOW outlines general contractor requirements and will be supplemented by specific work statements in individual task orders. Task orders will vary in the level and complexity of requirements, from full scope of the technical services of this SOW to narrow portions of the SOW.

Work performed under this SOW will require the contractor to have a NAVSEA 04XQ approved

Quality Plan/Quality Management System (QMS).

SUBSAFE work will not be authorized under this contract. However, there may be work performed within SUBSAFE boundaries and the offeror must have personnel that have SUBSAFE/SOC Awareness training prior to conducting work.”

2.0 BACKGROUND

The mission of the NSWCCD-SSES is to transition HM&E machinery technology to the U.S. Navy active/reserve Fleet, and support various sponsors for Navy Modernization Programs. This requires development and execution of various Ship Changes (SCs) and SHIPALTs to upgrade and maintain in a more cost-effective and timely manner the system/equipment readiness of various Navy HM&E and electronic systems. This contract primarily supports large Modernization Programs and/or critical-path

SCs/Alterations that are accomplished in Navy Chief Naval Operation (CNO) availabilities.

This contract covers blue collar support for installations primarily on U.S. Navy Surface Ships, Carriers Submarines and Service Craft. In addition, this contract also supports HM&E upgrades on

Foreign Military Sales (FMS) platforms, Army watercraft, Military Sealift Command (MSC), land-based test sites, and other DOD platforms.

As part of this mission, various NSWCCD-SSES Divisions support sponsors for program management or are In-Service Engineering Agents (ISEAs) for their system/equipment for the transition of new technologies through the various acquisition phases. The Alteration/SC installation process consists of several acquisition phases, including advance planning, Research and Development (R&D), ship check, surveys, assessments, fabrication, prototype/proof-in install, final design shipboard installation, testing, lessons learned gathering and completion/close-out. Alteration / SCs for ship specific systems and modifications must be authorized and mature in design before the work is to commence.

This contract covers large Modernization Programs where NSWCCD-SSES is the ISEA for various

HM&E systems and equipment. These Programs consist of critical-path SCs/Alterations that are typically complex in nature and are crucial to the execution of meeting key production, light-off and testing milestones during ship CNO availabilities. In addition, these installs are intricate in system arrangement, interface and distributive system impact. Some of the programs supported include, but are not limited to:

DDG51 Class Control systems: MCS, DCS, IBNS, GEDMS, Radar TLI, etc.

CG47 Class Integrated Ship Control (ISC) including interface to all sensor systems

LSD41/49 Class Mid-Life – MCS, SCS, LAN and PLMU

Scalable Integrated Bridge System (SIBS) / Electronic Charting Display Information

System – Navy (ECDIS-N)

R-114 Conversion – A/C and Refrigerant Plants

Hazardous Minimization Center (HAZMINCEN)

Submarine Program alterations (Title K SHIPALTs and A&Is)

Submarine Fleet alterations (Title D SHIPALTs)

Integrated Condition Assessment System (ICAS)

Carrier Navigation and Control Systems

Ship Steam, Auxiliary, Seawater, Compressed Air, Machinery Automation and Fluid systems

Steam/Diesel and 400 Hz/DC Electric Power systems

Machinery and Damage Control Systems

Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) and Firefighting systems

Submarine Sail system

Networks and LAN

This contract does provide for task orders for ship/system maintenance and ship/system repair services that are fully bounded and conform to NSWCCD-SSES command repair process and policy. This contract does not provide services for "open and inspect" accomplishment. It is anticipated that repair tasks may be required to complete the modernization effort, and will comprise a small percentage in each of the awarded task orders.

Examples of allowable repair work include:

(a) Equipment/system repair that interfaces with an approved SC/alternations and would need to be fully operational in order to successfully light off and test the SC/Alterations.

(b) Components and systems where NSWCCD-SSES is the In-Service Engineering Agent (ISEA) that requires specialized subcontractor support to repair damaged or faulty equipment.

(c) General Shipyard repair packages where the Shipyard does not have a ship repair contracting vehicle to complete availability. Be advised prior approval must be in place with NSWCCD-SSES Commanding Officer and senior leadership before this type of work can be placed on this contract.
