1. DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES/GENERAL INFORMATION

1.1. Purpose

1.1.1. The purpose of the Performance Work Statement (PWS) is to define the repair and overhaul requirements for the KC-135 inlet and fan cowling specified in Attachment A of the PWS. The work encompasses the disassembly, cleaning, inspection, maintenance, reassembly, testing and finishing actions required to return the items to a serviceable condition. The contractor is responsible for having the repair capabilities to include appropriate technical data, repair documents, and license agreements, required to accomplish this repair. The Contractor is responsible for the scheduled delivery of a quality product.

1.2. General Information

1.2.1. Contractor employees shall identify themselves as Contractor personnel by introducing themselves or being introduced as Contractor personnel and displaying distinguishing badges or other visible identification for meetings with Government personnel. In addition, Contractor personnel shall appropriately identify themselves as Contractor employees in telephone conversations and in formal and informal written correspondence.

1.3. Work Requirements

1.3.1. The Contractor shall perform repair of the items specified in Attachment A of this PWS. The work encompasses the disassembly, cleaning, inspection, maintenance, reassembly, testing and finishing actions required to return the items to a serviceable condition. The work shall be accomplished IAW the Contractor’s latest repair instructions and specific work requirements in paragraph 1.3.12 through 1.3.14. In the event that a situation develops where the instructions conflict with the pertinent manual, this PWS shall take precedence. Return unit to a serviceable condition.

1.3.2. The Contractor shall replace any component parts that do not meet specified inspection requirements, or if there is any doubt as to its serviceability or longevity. Parts required to meet the requirements of 1.3.12 through 1.3.14 shall be part of the firm fixed price. Parts outside of these routine requirements may be submitted as over and above. This includes any part requiring replacement due to catastrophic failure, fatigue failure, or deterioration. The Contractor is advised to include the cost of replacing a percentage of each recoverable part in their repair cost proposal.

1.3.2.1. If the Contractor is not a Government Engineer approved source of repair for a recoverable part, this part shall be replaced with a new part per paragraph 1.8 or repaired by a Government Engineer approved source. The Contractor may propose their repair procedure along with substantiating documents for evaluation and possible approval for repair of the recoverable part. The Contractor shall submit the request for evaluation to the cognizant engineering office through the PCO for approval. The Government will not be responsible for any costs associated with development of any repair procedures unless it has been negotiated and approved by the PCO.

1.3.2.2. Identification of missing and/or externally damaged components must be revealed within five (5) business days after the asset is removed from the shipping container and reported to the PCO through the ACO in the form of a Discrepancy Report. Failure of the Contractor to identify missing and/or externally damaged components within five (5) business days may result in failure of the missing/damaged components to be covered under over and above.

1.3.3. Over and above work means work discovered during the course of performing overhaul, maintenance, and repair efforts that is—

(i) Within the general scope of the contract.

(ii) Not covered by the line item(s) for the basic work under the contract; and

(iii) Necessary in order to satisfactorily complete the contract.

Upon discovery of the need for over and above work, the Contractor shall prepare and furnish to the Government a work request in accordance with the agreed-to procedure.

The Contractor and Administrative Contracting Officer shall mutually agree to procedures for Government administration and Contractor performance of over and above work requests. If the parties cannot agree upon the procedures, the Administrative Contracting Officer has the unilateral right to direct the over and above work procedures to be followed. These procedures shall, as a minimum, cover—

The format, content, and submission of work requests by the Contractor. Work requests shall contain data on the type of discrepancy disclosed, the specific location of the discrepancy, and the estimated labor hours and material required to correct the discrepancy. Data shall be sufficient to satisfy contract requirements and obtain the authorization of the Contracting Officer to perform the proposed work; Government review, verification, and authorization of the work and Proposal pricing, submission, negotiation, and definitization.

The Government will review the work request and provide a response to the contractor within 15 calendar days if the over and above work request is approved by the Government. Approved work requests will result in contract modifications to definitize all over and above work.

Failure to agree on the price of over and above work shall be a dispute within the meaning of the Disputes clause of this contract.

1.3.4. For data provided through Contract Data Requirements List (CDRLs), see paragraph 1.4.1 for type and schedule requirements.

1.3.13. Inlet Cowling (65C18554-604/-772) Repair and Overhaul.

65C18554-604 inlet cowling is identified on the drawing and in the 1C-135-4-2 as an alternate assembly used on the KC-135R/T model aircraft. Data does not show a specific aircraft effectivity for this part number. Repair history has identified no -604 assemblies, however, there is a potential for a limited number to be overhauled under this effort. Replacement of parts on the -604 that are not common to the -772 assembly (in particular the 65C18562-601 acoustic panel installation) shall be handled as over and above.

Inlet cowling will be divided into two categories: repair and overhaul. Repair is intended as a temporary effort until overhaul is part supportable or if the cowling has been previously overhauled under this effort. The basic requirements will be the same for both effort but when implemented the overhaul will require replacement of all bonded panels.

1.3.13.1. The following overhaul tasks are considered basic to the requirements of this effort and shall be firm fixed price.

a. Tasks accomplished per section 1.3.12.

b. All repairs accomplished in accordance with T.O. 1C-135-3-1 and 1C-

135-3-4.

c. All engineered repairs developed to repair honeycomb core, skins and doublers of the inlet cowl bonded panel assemblies.

d. Replacement of improper blind rivets used in the attachment of the leading-edge skins.

e. Repair of leading-edge skins per T.O. 1C-135-3-4 (e.g. bump out of dents or doubler repairs).

f. Visually inspect part number 65C18554-737 (Tee Angle) for cracks.

Replace if cracked.

g. Repairs to acoustic panels will be limited to 50% of the allowable lost area by the T.O. to permit future repair. No more than 50% of the available negligible damage limits will be allowed in repair of the end item. When damage exceeds these limits, the part must be permanently repaired or replaced.

h. The Contractor shall replace exterior skin panels with large amounts of hail damage. Large is defined as repair exceeding 10% of the panel size or having more than 20 dents exceeding .030” in depth.

1.3.13.2. Overhaul. Accomplish all the requirements of 1.3.13.1 excluding bonded panel repairs. The parts listed in below shall be replaced 100% unless in lieu of bonded panel repair unless replaced under a previous repair effort.
