About this file
This is a Statement of Work (SOW) for FM-200 fire suppression system inspection and testing services on the CGC Margaret Norvell, a U.S. Coast Guard cutter. The contractor must inspect and test FM-200 fixed fire suppression systems in three protected areas: the engine room, generator room, and emergency generator room, in accordance with Coast Guard maintenance procedures and technical publications. The work includes removing solenoid pilot valves, verifying fire panel operation modes, testing ventilation system shutdowns, confirming alarm activation (sirens, bells, and strobe lights), and simulating pressure switch activation. The contractor must also inspect and test all compressed gas cylinders for compliance with Code of Federal Regulations Title 49, Section 173.34, verify cylinder weights and pressures, and replenish all three primary and secondary systems to required cylinder weights. Upon completion, the contractor must conduct operational tests in the presence of a Coast Guard Inspector to demonstrate that all disturbed or repaired equipment functions satisfactorily.
The contractor must provide a certified technical representative from Chemetron Fire Systems who is familiar with FM-200 equipment and possesses manufacturer proprietary information, software, and tools. The representative must submit their name and resume at the arrival conference. The contractor is responsible for furnishing protective coverings to prevent contamination of non-affected vessel components and spaces, and for removing all protective measures and contamination upon work completion. All work must be coordinated with the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) prior to testing, with particular attention to safety procedures and the severe health hazards associated with FM-200 inhalation. The performance period is March 20-30, 2026, at the vessel's home port located at 100 MacArthur Causeway, Miami, Florida 33139. All discrepancies must be documented via Corrective Action Request (CFR) forms, and all applicable hoses must be renewed during the inspection process.
