SECTION C – STATEMENT OF WORK
BACKGROUND
The Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division, Newport (NAVUNSEAWARCENDIVNPT) located in Rhode Island (RI) and the Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division, Keyport (NAVUNSEAWARCENDIVKPT) located in Washington (WA) are responsible for supporting all life cycle phases of the Lightweight and Heavyweight Torpedo systems including requirements definition, design, development, integration and test of torpedo upgrades and automatic test equipment, weapon procurement and production support activities, torpedo performance analysis and operational readiness, and technical support for foreign military sales. In support of these activities, these facilities maintain corporate and scientific/engineering knowledge and specialized facilities for planning, developing, and conducting research, advanced development, production hardware assessment and operational systems development for all torpedo systems including export weapons.
Currently, the United States Navy (USN) maintains an active inventory of MK48 Mod 6 and Mod 7 Heavyweight Torpedoes. The current Transducer Array/Nose Shell Assembly used in the MK48 Heavyweight Torpedo was last acquired in the early 1990’s. Recent assessments of the torpedo inventory have identified a need for the USN to acquire additional Transducer Array/Nose Shell Assemblies. In response, NAVUNSEAWARCENDIVNPT has completed an effort to modernize the Transducer Array/Nose Shell Assembly Technical Data Package (TDP) and is seeking to procure Transducer Array/Nose Shell Assemblies that meet the requirements within the TDP. The Undersea Weapons Program Office (PMS 404) will be sponsoring the Naval Undersea Warfare Center for the acquisition of these Transducer Array/Nose Shell Assemblies.
SCOPE
This Statement of Work (SOW) sets forth the work efforts required by the contractor to fabricate, assemble, test, inspect, package, and deliver First Article and Production Transducer Array/Nose Shell Assemblies for the MK48 Heavyweight Torpedoes. The Transducer Array/Nose Shell Assemblies shall be built in accordance with the build-to-print TDP, Attachment 1. All work to be performed under this SOW shall require a secure facility and personnel with required security clearances in accordance with enclosure XXX (DD-254).
The tasking per this contract shall include program management, preproduction – first article, production, and engineering and technical services.
Sponsors This contract is sponsored by the following organizations:
1) PMS404
Funding This contract is funded used the following categories:
1) WPN
2) FMS
