This Statement of Work (SOW) addresses the requirements and tasks associated with the design, manufacture, and delivery of Wire Repair Tool Sets (Delta) and Wire Repair Tool Sets (Completion), Part Numbers (P/N) 4214AS0100-1 and 4215AS0100-1 respectively, for the MQ-8C Fire Scout Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) Program. Technical Data Packages (TDP) and production-representative first article units are also required.

These Wire Repair Tool Sets are required for MQ-8C air vehicle wiring system repairs while deployed with or without the MH-60S. These sets will consist of ruggedized transit cases containing wire repair tools that will provide capabilities for MQ-8C repair requirements.

For the TDPs, the MQ-8C Delta set can utilize part number 4214AS0100-1 for the end item and part number series 4214AS0100 through 4214AS9999 for all required technical drawings. The MQ-8C Completion set can utilize part number 4215AS0100-1 for the end item and part number series 4215AS0100 through 4215AS9999 for all required technical drawings.

These Peculiar Support Equipment (PSE) end items are integral for the full complement of Support Equipment needed for initial outfitting of MQ-8C Squadrons to perform scheduled and unscheduled maintenance on MQ-8C Aircraft.

The program is requesting a five-year, Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ), firm fixed priced (FFP) contract. The initial (minimum) requirements are production-representative first article units and TDPs. The maximum procurable quantities of Delta Sets and Completion Sets under this procurement are (50) and (15) respectively.

3.0 ITEM UNIQUE IDENTIFICATION (IUID)

3.1 Item Unique Identification (IUID) Marking of US Military Property In accordance with DFARS Clause 252.211-7003 Item Identification and valuation, the Contractor is required to mark and register all end items and their components meeting the requirements called out in MIL-STD-130N. These include components for which the Governments unit acquisition cost is $5,000 or greater, or any component, subassembly or embedded part that is serially managed, mission essential or a controlled inventory item.

3.1.1 Construct and Method

Details on creating the UID and the marking method are contained in MIL-STD-130N. The UID may be either UID Construct #1 or Construct #2 with Construct #2 being the preferred method.

3.1.2 UID Location and Marking

The locations and marking methods selected shall bear no impact on the performance of the part and minimal configuration change(s) to the part. The UID (including 2D Matrix) shall be incorporated onto the data plate in accordance with Drawing 3909AS9999 Rev B (Identification Plate/UID Markings). If the 2D matrix can't be incorporated onto the data plate, a 2D matrix sticker can be applied onto the main data plate provided it can be done without covering any critical data. When the 2D Data Matrix is placed directly onto the data plate, the Part Number, Serial Number and CAGE human readable characters are not required. If the above cannot be accomplished, a separate data plate can be attached which contains the 2D Matrix plus the human readable characters for the Part Number, Serial Number and CAGE. This added data plate shall be attached in close proximity to the main data plate.

3.1.3 Permanency and Legibility

The UID marking and identification plates, tags, or labels when used on equipment, parts, assemblies, subassemblies, units, sets, or groups shall be permanent during the normal life expectancy of the item and be capable of withstanding the environmental test and cleaning procedures specified for the item. Legibility shall be as required for ready readability as per MIL-STD-130N.

3.1.4 UID Registration

The prime Contractor has the responsibility to furnish Item Unique Identification (IUID) data to the IUID registry. Data submission of IUID data and acquisition cost shall be via Wide Area Work Flow (WAWF), IUID XML file, IUID flat file or web entry. Additional information regarding data submission as well as the actual marking can be found at <http://www.acq.osd.mil/dpap/UID/>.

3.1.5 Records

The Contractor shall maintain an accurate, current list of UIDs for all manufactured items on this contract and supply to the Government upon request. The list shall include P/N, Serial #, CAGE, UID Location, Construct used, how it was marked and the registration method used.
