This Statement of Work (SOW) details fall protection inspection services for the 452d Maintenance Squadron at March Air Reserve Base in California. The scope requires a comprehensive annual inspection of fall protection systems for KC-135 and C-17 aircraft, involving hands-on examination of installed system components, verification of end terminations, checking for damage, performing minor repairs, and documenting findings. The contractor will inspect systems manufactured by Evan Corporation or Capital Safety Group, focusing on 3 systems across buildings 423, 2303, and 2306, with a total of 23 anchorage points.
The contract period is one base year with four twelve-month option periods. Key requirements include issuing a written report confirming system condition and OSHA regulation compliance, with an estimate for any additional repairs needed. The inspection will occur in secured aircraft hangars with an escort provided, and no government-furnished property will be supplied. Self-retracting lifelines (SRLs) manufactured or serviced after January 1, 2003, require factory recertification only if damaged, while earlier models need mandatory servicing.

Statement of Work
Fall Protection Inspection Services
March Air Reserve Base
1. Background. The 452d Maintenance Squadron at March Air Reserve Base, California, responsible for the maintenance of KC-135 and C-17 aircraft, adheres to stringent safety protocols as mandated by Department of the Air Force Manual DAFMAN 91-203, Chapter 13, "Fall Protection Requirements." This adherence ensures the safety of Air Force maintenance operations conducted by the Maintenance Group. Given that both KC-135 and C-17 aircraft exceed the four-foot threshold outlined in paragraph 13.1.1, which necessitates fall protection for tasks posing a potential fall risk of four feet or more, appropriate fall protection measures are unequivocally mandatory for all maintenance operations conducted on the top surfaces of these aircraft, regardless of whether the work is performed on the flight line or in hangars. This rigorous adherence to fall protection protocols underscores the commitment to the well-being of personnel while maintaining mission readiness.
2. Scope. The inspection services should include the following accomplishments:
2.1. The contractor will complete a hands-on inspection of all components of the installed system, visually verify all end terminations, tighten all lock nuts, and inspect for presence of cotter pins where appropriate.
2.2. The contractor will check for damage to all components including cable along its entire length, intermediate brackets and end termination, and inspect intermediate brackets for excessive deformation.
2.3. The contractor will perform minor repairs as needed and photo document any in-depth repairs that may be required.
2.4. The contractor will inspect user equipment supplied with the original system or replacement of same make and model, including harnesses and lanyards. The inspection will be limited to engineered system components installed by Evan Corporation or manufactured by Capital Safety Group and installed by others. For systems that incorporate Capital Safety Group equipment that were designed and installed by others, this does not include verification of the original design and is limited to confirmation that the manufactured components are in good working order.
3. Objectives. Complete the annual inspection of fall protection systems to ensure continued compliance with OSHA regulations and manufacturer recommendations.
4. Tasks/Requirements. At the completion of the inspection & repair the contractor will issue a written report attesting to the condition of the system and its conformance with
OSHA Regulations. Should any additional repairs be required, the contractor will prepare an estimate to undertake such work. In accordance with the manufacturer’s specifications, SRL’s (self retracting lifelines), including SRL’s with rescue winches, manufactured or serviced after January 1, 2003, require factory recertification only if damaged or subjected to impact. SRL’s manufactured or serviced prior to this date will need to be serviced. The cost of servicing the SRL and associated shipping costs are not to be included in the proposal.
5. Delivery. Inspection Services of this requirement should start immediately after contract award. The contractor will need to provide all necessary equipment in order to complete the required inspections on an annual basis.
6. Government-Furnished Property. None. The Government will not be providing any resources for the required inspection.
7. Security Requirements. As the Inspections will take place in active aircraft hangars in a secured location, the associated section will provide an escort. This escort will be present to accompany the contractor in the secured location, during inspections of the Fall Protection systems, and off of the secured location.
8. Place of Performance. All inspection services on this requirement shall be held at the 452
Maintenance Squadron, March ARB, CA in buildings 423, 2303, and 2306. There are 3 systems, 1 in each hangar as noted with a total of 23 anchorage points.
9. Period of Performance. One base year plus four (4) twelve-month options.
