STATEMENT OF WORK

(SOW)

For 80ft Explosion Proof Boom Lifts

PREPARATION DATE: 27 Sept 2022

PREPARING ORGANIZATION: 76 AMXG/MXDEC TINKER AFB OK 73145

1.0 SCOPE

The purpose of this Statement of Work (SOW) is to define the requirements for procurement of two (2) Explosion Proof Boom Lifts which shall be used to perform corrosion control operations on all weapon systems (E-3, KC-135, B-52, B-1B, Navy E- 6, Navy C-130, and AF C-130) in the 76 Aircraft Maintenance Group (76 AMXG). Two

(2) explosion proof boom lifts which are certified for use in a Class I, Division I hazardous location are required to support painting of Program Depot Maintenance (PDM) and contracted workloads in Building 2122, Building 2280, and Building 3225.

The explosion proof boom lifts provide the flexibility to perform tasks on various weapon systems and safer access to reach all areas of any aircraft. The boom lifts will help resolve facility support equipment, capacity, and capability limitations that currently exist throughout the Corrosion Control facilities.

The Contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, supplies, facilities, transportation, tools, materials, supervision and other items (e.g. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)) necessary to perform the requirements of this SOW and contract as defined in this Statement of Work (SOW). The Contractor shall provide and use only new parts and material unless authorized by the Contracting Officer (CO).

1.1 BACKGROUND

The 76 AMXG paint facilities support corrosion control operations (painting and chemically depainting) on all PDM and contracted weapon systems. There are currently six (6) explosion proof boom lifts being shared in four (4) aircraft paint docks. The explosion proof boom lifts are equipped with OSHA certified fall arrest systems which allow the employees to work outside the basket, making it safer to access difficult to reach areas. The boom lifts are also designed to allow personnel to safely access all areas of an aircraft, which would otherwise require the use of expensive maintenance stands specially designed for each weapon system. These explosion proof boom lifts are Class I, Division I safety rated for painting operations. The explosion proof boom lifts shall be exposed to large quantities of water during washing, rinsing, and chemical depainting of aircraft. The explosion proof boom lifts shall enable personnel to safely access all areas of any weapon system, regardless of the facility and available support equipment.

The limited quantity to support multiple aircraft, frequent usage of the boom lifts, and traveling between four (4) different paint docks has caused immense wear and tear on existing equipment. Two (2) of the six (6) existing explosion proof boom lifts are 8 years old and need to be replaced due to high maintenance cost, age of the equipment, and downtime to repair which has led to additional process flowtime on aircraft. Over the past year, at least two out of the six existing boom lifts were inoperable due to on-going repairs. Two (2) new explosion proof boom lifts are required to accomplish the mission.
