1.0 SCOPE

This Statement of Work (SOW) defines the efforts required for the production, testing (as applicable), and delivery of a SONAR Sounding Set, which includes SONAR receiver-transmitter, receiver-transmitter mounting bracket, remote depth indicator(s), SONAR simulator (test set with cables that connect to the receiver-transmitter and transducer), NTDS-A converter boxes, and associated technical documentation for ARLEIGH BURKE Class Destroyers and other navy ship classes.

1.1 Background

The SONAR Sounding Set measures the depth of water beneath the lowest projection on a vessel. The water depth is continually presented on a graphical and a numeric display, and shall be retained in memory and available for archiving. A pulse of electrical energy is converted to sound energy and transmitted downward by a transducer. When the energy strikes bottom (or any other object having acoustic properties different from those of water), a portion is reflected back to the transducer as an echo. This energy is re-converted to electrical energy for presentation. Because the speed of sound in water is assumed to be nearly constant, the amount of time which elapses between the transmission of a pulse and the reception of its echo is a measure of the distance travelled, or in this case, depth.

The Contractor shall establish uniform requirements and criteria for Failure Reporting, Analysis, and Corrective Action Taken to provide management visibility and control for reliability and maintainability improvement of hardware and associated software by using failure and maintenance data to generate and implement effective corrective actions to identify failure trends, improve repair procedures, and to simplify or reduce the maintenance tasks.

4.6 Test and Inspection Procedures and Reports

The Contractor shall provide a complete Technical Data Package (CDRL B005), Product Drawings/Models and Associated Lists (CDRL B006) and Commercial Drawings/Models and Associated Lists (CDRL B007).

4.7 Production Product Baseline Configuration Control

Upon receipt and approval of the Technical Data Package (CDRL B005), the Product Drawings/Models and Associated Lists (CDRL B006), and the Commercial Drawings/Models and Associated Lists (CDRL B007), the Government will establish a Product Baseline and will assume responsibility for configuration control during production of the SONAR Sounding Set.

Once the Product Baseline is established, the contractor shall submit revisions using Engineering Change Proposals (ECPs) (CDRL B008) to describe the proposed changes to technical documents and a Notice of Revision (CDRL B009).

An ECP should be submitted whenever the detail level physical configuration, material quality, operational or functional performance of equipment or installed systems will not be in compliance with baseline design related documents (Specifications, Contract Drawings, etc.), and a change to the baseline document is considered an appropriate means of resolving a design related issue. Documentation shall be developed in sufficient detail to enable Government review and evaluation of the merits of the proposed change, including cost and scheduling impact, ship class impact, and consequences if disapproved. All existing drawings and technical manuals impacted by the change shall be listed along with a brief narrative explanation of needed changes to incorporate the ECP if approved. Weight and moment data incidental to the change shall be provided. The Contractor shall also prepare applicable baseline document insert sheets, with specific word changes or proposed re write, to facilitate baseline documentation changes.

There are two (2) types of ECP classifications:

Class 1 Criteria:

•An ECP proposing a change to approved configuration documentation for which the government is the Configuration Documentation Configuration Authority (CDCA), and •Affects any physical or functional requirement in approved functional or allocated configuration documentation, •Affects any approved functional, allocated or product configuration documentation, and cost, warranties or contract milestones, or Affects approved product configuration documentation

Class 2 Criteria:

An ECP proposing a change to approved configuration documentation for which the government is the CDCA or that which is not a Class 1.

Class I ECPs must be dispositioned (approved or disapproved) for implementation by a properly constituted Government Configuration Control Board (CCB). After the CCB direction is issued, it is important to proceed expeditiously with the “definitization” process (obtaining a pricing proposal, auditing, fact finding, and negotiating the final price) for this change and issuing a supplemental agreement. Until the contract modification is received and bi-laterally agreed to by the Government and the contractor, the contractor is not authorized to proceed with the implementation of the proposed change. If concurrence or non-concurrence of Class II ECPs is not provided within the timeframe, the Contractor shall not consider Government concurrence.

Whenever the cost of implementing a proposed change is less than the threshold requiring certified cost or pricing data, the Contractor shall provide documentation explaining the nature of related costs as shown on the change document. Whenever the contract cost changes by an amount greater than the threshold requiring certified cost or pricing data, the Contractor shall complete such cost and pricing data as the Contracting Officer shall require detailing all related costs, and attach it to the change document. Requirements for cost and pricing data shall be determined by the gross amount of the change unless otherwise directed by the contracting officer.

Deviations and Waivers - In the event that a baseline design related document requirement cannot be met, and a change to the baseline document is considered inappropriate, the Contractor shall submit a Request for Variance (RFV)(CDRL B010). The explanation of "need for deviation" should provide detailed justification and consequences of approval, to include technical details explaining the degree of non-compliance or effect on ship equipment or system operation constraints. In a similar manner, a waiver shall document an "as built" configuration that departs from baseline documentation and should include any proposed corrections or modifications to better meet the intent of the baseline document (CDRL B011).

The NECP shall explain the nature of the problem, identify the applicable baseline document (i.e., CDRL, Contract Clause, etc.) and provide a detailed explanation justifying the proposed course of action desired to resolve the problem. Insert sheets for applicable documents shall also be attached to facilitate change action in the event the NECP is approved.

4.8 Information Assurance (IA)

In order to address IA requirements, any SONAR Sounding Set equipment shall not have any external USB ports, or external laptop computers. The design of all units shall ensure users shall not have access to a Windows bar without going through a changeable password protection means.

4.9 Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI)

The Contractor shall require access to CUI. CUI is official information that requires the application of controls and protective measures for a variety of reasons and has not been approved for public release, to include technical information, proprietary data, information requiring protection under the Privacy Act of 1974, and Government-developed privileged information involving the award of contracts. CUI is a categorical designation that refers to unclassified information that does not meet the standards for National Security Classification under Executive Order 13526, but is (a) pertinent to the national interest of the United States or to the important interests of entities outside the Federal Government, and (b) under law or policy requires protection from unauthorized disclosure, special handling safeguards, or prescribed limits on exchange or dissemination.

Access to CUI

Contractor personnel requiring access to CUI or user level access to DOD networks and information systems, system security and network defense systems, or to system resources providing visual access and/or ability to input, delete, or otherwise manipulate sensitive information without controls to identify and deny sensitive information, shall have security clearance eligibility.

The contractor shall comply with the most recent version of and revisions thereto of DOD Manual (DODM) 5200.01, DOD Information Security Program: CUI.

DOD Security classification guides and unclassified limited documents (e.g., For Official Use Only (FOUO), Distribution Statement Controlled) are not authorized for public release and, therefore, cannot be posted on a publicly accessible webserver or transmitted over the internet unless appropriately encrypted. At a minimum, the Contractor shall handle all data received or generated under this contract as FOUO material.

Operations Security (OPSEC)

Performance under this contract requires the contractor to adhere to OPSEC requirements.

Explanation of these requirements is detailed in the Operations Security Guide for Defense Contractors, available online at:
