1.0 Description of Services

1.1 Objectives: The objective of this effort is to award a contract that provides all the necessary parts and labor to repair, calibrate, and test the Air Data Test Set (ADTS). This will include providing obsolete parts resolution along with the necessary engineering support to investigate Deficiency Reports and Material Improvement Projects (MIPS).The contractor shall provide timely deliveries of serviceable end items and prompt data deliverables. Additionally, the contractor shall provide timely response to Surge and Mission Impaired Capability Awaiting Parts (MICAP)requirements, along with providing notification of production problems effecting deliveries and/or potential delivery schedule slippage. Timely and accurate reporting in Commercial Asset Visibility Air Force (CAVAF) shall be provided by the contractor.

Ultimately, the purpose of the effort under this PWS is to provide a continued flow of serviceable assets to the warfighter.

1.1.1 In this Performance Work Statement (PWS) document when referencing the repair of the ADTS, the process encompasses repairing the ADTS which also includes calibrating the assets.

This process will fall under one CLIN and dollar amount (see 4.3.1.1). The contract will reference this Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) line as “Repair/Calibration”. When this document references calibration, it is stating that the ADTS will receive an annual standard fine tuning “only” which is under one CLIN line and dollar amount. The contract will reference this CLIN line as “Calibration”.

1.2 Benefit to United States Air Force (USAF): The F-15 war fighter requires an item that meets an exact form, fit, and function as determined by their specific mission. Each ADTS must be able to properly measure the visual properties of the LRU being tested. The ADTS components are complex items and require specific procedures for repair and calibration. The F- 15C/D/E is currently used by the ANG, ACC, USAFE and PACAF and is scheduled to be in service until 2045. The ESTS system is used to support the F-15 aircraft platform and is not scheduled for replacement.

1.3 Background: The Electronic Systems Test Set (ESTS) is an intermediate-level avionics tester, also used at the Depot, that detects and identifies faults in 50 F-15 three-level maintenance Line Replaceable Units (LRUs). ESTS replaces parts of six obsolete Avionics Intermediate Shop test set stations for the F-15. The Air Data Test Set (ADTS) is used in conjunction with the ESTS and Interface Test Adapter (6) to interface 2 LRUs to the ESTS station. This Performance- Based Work Statement (PWS) establishes the procedures that will be utilized to have the F-15 ESTS, ADTS (NSN 4920-01-550-2455; PN 18906300001) calibrated and/or repaired and tested, then returned to the Air Force to meet user demands and performance requirements. It defines workflow, repair turnaround times, quality control, configuration control, and data item submittals. The ADTS are complex items and require specific procedures for repair and calibration. The F-15C/D/E is currently used by the ANG, ACC, USAFE and PACAF and is scheduled to be in service until 2045. The ESTS system is used to support the F-15 aircraft platform and is not scheduled for replacement.

3.3 Loss of Government Property

3.3.1 Definition of Loss of Government Property: In accordance with DFARS 252.245-7002, Reporting Loss of Government Property, “loss of Government property” means unintended loss of or damage to Government property including property that cannot be found after a reasonable search, loss due to inadequate storage, theft, loss due to lack of security, damage requiring repair to restore the item to usable condition, or damage that renders the property useless for its intended purpose or Beyond Economical Repair (BER). Loss of Government property does not include manufacturing defects, obsolescence, normal wear and tear, or purposeful destructive testing. Unless otherwise stated in the contract/order, loss of Government property does not include normal and reasonable inventory adjustments, i.e., losses of low priority consumable material, such as common hardware, as agreed to by the Contractor and the Government Property Administrator.

3.3.2 Reporting Loss of Government Property: The Contractor shall report loss of Government property in the GFP Module located in PIEE, https://piee.eb.mil/piee-landing/

3.4 Return of Government Property: All property provided by the Government remains the property of the Government and shall be returned to the Government as directed, but no later than completion of the contract/order, unless the Procuring Contracting Officer (PCO) directs the Contractor to retain the property for continued use under a successor contract. All Government property shall be returned to the Government in the condition provided unless approved in advance by the PCO.

Material or parts used for replacement shall be equal to or exceed the quality of the original material or parts. The material or parts used shall be entirely suitable for repair of this ADTS and shall be completely interchangeable without alterations of either the subassemblies or the ADTS itself. Parts which bear a national stock number designation may be replaced by a similar part, provided the alternate part is designated as an acceptable replacement by a federal catalog and approved by 409 SCMS System Engineering. Exchange of parts between assemblies and/or subassemblies is authorized with the agreement that the same number of assets be returned serviceable, unless the asset(s) is deemed “not repairable or condemned”. Parts removed for this reason shall not be cause for condemnation of assets. For the purpose of this PWS, any repairable end item input for repair under this contract shall be output to function at the appropriate part number configuration set forth under this contract.

4.8.5 Risk Assessment: The contract shall address the risk of using unknown sources and or unauthorized suppliers in the CPP. Application or technical risk assessments shall establish the effect that counterfeit parts may have on performance. Vendor or source of supply risk assessments shall establish the potential for obtaining counterfeit parts. Using any risk analysis tool acceptable to the Government, the Contractor shall conduct a risk assessment based upon item characteristics and how likely it is that a counterfeit part will be received. The Contractor shall identify and describe in the CPP how parts are selected for assessment and what risk is acceptable based upon the parts design, construction, material and functional requirements. At a minimum, analysis shall be completed for flagging high risk items, such as items that are obsolete, discontinued, rare, etc. The Contractor shall require completion of a trade study, documented within the CPP that shall facilitate determining whether 100% testing of parts procured from after-market sources is more cost effective than qualification or requalification of a manufacturer. (Ref. AS5553, paragraph 4.1.2, 4.1.3, appendix B, C, D)

4.8.6 Detection and Avoidance Responsibilities: The Contractor shall establish processes for the review and approval of contractor and applicable subcontractor systems for the detection and avoidance of counterfeit electronic parts and suspect counterfeit electronic parts, which processes shall be comparable to the processes established for contractor business systems under section 893 of the Ike Skelton National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2011 (Public Law 111–383; 124 Stat. 4311; 10 U.S.C. 2302 note).

Submittal of Certificates of Compliance indicating the parts are not counterfeit shall be acceptable for verification of testing. (Ref. AS5553, paragraph 4.1.4, appendix E)

4.8.8 Configuration Identification and Traceability: The Contractor shall identify and control the configurations of all systems, assemblies, subassemblies and parts, and enable mechanisms to provide traceability of parts. The Contractor shall report to the Government when control of the configurations of all systems, assemblies, subassemblies and parts, and mechanisms to provide traceability of parts are not possible. The Contractor shall identify the specific systems, assemblies, subassemblies and parts beyond the Contractors’ control. The Contractor shall be responsible for detecting and avoiding the use or inclusion of counterfeit materials and parts, to include procured assemblies and subassemblies, in such products and shall be responsible for the rework or corrective action that may be required to resolve the use or inclusion of counterfeit materials and parts.

The cost of counterfeit electronic parts and suspect counterfeit electronic parts and the cost of rework or corrective action that may be required to remedy the use or inclusion of such parts are not allowable costs under Department of Defense contracts , unless:
