1.1 BACKGROUND

NFPC seeks machining services to perform machining services on 70/30 Copper-Nickel (CuNi) shaft sleeves after they have been cast. The finish, tolerance and final dimensions of machining can be found in the below sections, scope of work and applicable documents, with attachments.

The material covered in this contract will be used in a crucial shipboard system. The use of incorrect or defective material would create a high probability of failure resulting in serious personnel injury, loss of life, loss of vital shipboard systems, or loss of the ship itself. Therefore, the material has been designated as Special Emphasis SUBSAFE / LEVEL I material and special control procedures are invoked to ensure receipt of correct material.

1.2 SCOPE OF WORK

This scope of work comprises of the off-site rough machining service of 70/30 CuNi shaft sleeves as per drawing (detail 3A of Attachment 1). When complete, the shaft sleeves must have a minimum surface finish of 250 RMS. Following the completion of the machining process, the shaft sleeves shall be dimensionally inspected and all dimensions shall be recorded on CDRL A001.

The CLIN structure is as follows:

2.2. Appendix A; “Minimum Standard Quality Contract Requirements for Procurement, Modification, Repair or Overhaul of Non-Nuclear Level I Material SMICs L1, C1, S1 and Level I Support SMIC Q3, VG” (Attachment 2).

3.0. REQUIREMENTS

3.1.1. Contractor personnel should maintain strict adherence to the marking, machining and inspection requirement listed in Attachment 1.

The minimum quality requirements for LEVEL I Material are provided in Appendix A; “Minimum Standard Quality Contract Requirements for Procurement, Modification, Repair or Overhaul of Non-Nuclear Level I Material SMICs L1, C1, S1 and Level I Support SMIC Q3, VG”. Appendix A is a material part of this contract and the contractor shall comply with all requirements established in Appendix A (Attachment 2).

3.1.2. As a part of the Government’s Quality Assurance Program, the Government reserves the right to witness any of the manufacturing, testing, machining, or inspection operations conducted by the contractor or its subcontractor(s).

3.1.3. Prior to machining, the contractor shall record the casting heat number located on the Government furnished casting and affix the casting number to lathe in any method suitable to ensure number documentation and traceability. Upon job completion, the number recorded shall be vibro-etched as per requirement in Attachment 1. Failure to properly mark will result in the casting being rejected.

3.1.4. The contractor is to identify “Pour End” or “PE” and transfer the same text to rough machined shaft sleeve with a non-destructive marking method. The use of a black permanent marking pen or similar is an acceptable method to transfer the text.

3.1.5. The contractor shall machine the Inside Diameter (ID), Outside Diameter (OD) and Length (L) of the stock as shown in Attachment 1.

3.1.6. The contractor shall ensure Concentricity, Straightness and Surface Finish is achieved as stated in Attachment 1.

3.1.7. After rough machining, the contractor is to vibro-etch near each end and at mid length on the OD the following:

ASTM B369

ALLOY C96400

SSN 688 CL-203-4457003Z

“Casting Heat Number”

NFPC

3.1.7.1 The “Casting Heat Number” recorded must match the number previously recorded in step 3.1.3 to ensure traceability.

3.1.8. The contractor shall measure and record the requested dimensions at locations as listed in Attachment 1. The contractor shall record the measurements in accordance with CDRL A001 (Attachment 3).

3.1.9. The contractor shall record the tool control number and calibration due dates on all equipment used to take quantitative measurements listed in Attachment 1. The contractor shall record this data on a calibration record sheet.

3.1.10. The contractor shall coordinate with their local DCMA representative for inspection and acceptance prior to shipment to NFPC. The DCMA representative shall produce a nominal inspection report and send to NFPC. Contractor shall not package unit and close shipping crate until contacted by either DCMA or NFPC representative to ensure all inspections and sign offs are complete.

3.2. Material Handling

3.2.1 The Contractor is responsible for removal, custody/storage, reinstallation, and documentation of all Level I work incidental to the Contract. The Contractor shall have a process for removal, custody/storage, reinstallation, and documentation of all controlled work in support of work awarded under a Task Order. NSWCPD reserves the right to conduct audits of process. Material handling procedures shall provide methods for controlling Level I material from receipt through installation.

3.2.2 Level I material that is awaiting or undergoing receipt inspection or is in storage shall be physically segregated from non-Level I material as soon as practical to prevent commingling and unauthorized use. Segregation may be accomplished by use of separate cages, racks, bins, shelves, boxes or roped-off areas. Storage areas for Level I material shall be distinctly identified and marked. Segregation shall be maintained until the material is installed aboard ship or identified to a specific end-use.

3.2.3 Material control tags shall be used to positively identify Level I material in transit to avoid unauthorized movement, commingling and improper use.

3.2.4 Level I material may be issued for non-Level applications without segregation or removal of MIC markings provided the material is identified to its end use application.

3.2.5 Staging of Level I material with other material is acceptable for a specific job or fabrication process, provided the Level I material is clearly marked as required and the material for the specific job or fabrication process is grouped together, identified by the job or process number, and segregated from material grouped for other processes or jobs.

3.2.6 When material is actually being worked or being stored temporarily pending work adequate segregation between specific generic material types and from non-Level I material, as well as adequate physical controls, shall be instituted to prevent material mix-up.

3.2.7 Level I materials of different material types, grades or condition shall be segregated through physical separation unless readily differentiated by other attributes, such as size or physical appearance (i.e., material that is not subject to mix-up).

3.2.8 When physical segregation cannot be practically accomplished an alternate positive system of control shall be used. The method used shall ensure that different materials that appear to be similar are not mixed (unless such materials are approved alternates for each other as indicated by stock or part number).

3.2.9 Upon successful receipt inspection verification and application of appropriate Level I acceptance marking, the segregation and physical control requirements of paragraphs 6.2.1 and 7.3 above do not apply to assemblies and finished components which are not subject to mix-up.

3.2.10 Material awaiting disposition of an unsatisfactory or questionable condition shall be identified, such as by the use of tags to indicate the status of the material, and shall be segregated from accepted material. If such material awaiting disposition is already part of an assembly or installed aboard ship, its status shall be clearly identified, such as by tags.

3.2.11 If the disposition action for material rejects the material for Level I use, the material shall be promptly moved from any area in which Level I material is stored, worked on, or staged, and the Level I identification on the material shall be removed as soon as practical.
