Statement of Work (SOW) Robotic Lift System for the

Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)

1.0 Background

AJW-L has achieved significant success in the preparation, integration, and shipment of portable shelters supporting a wide range of FAA and customer mission requirements throughout the Continental United States (CONUS) and beyond. Since the program’s inception, AJW-L has delivered hundreds of shelters in support of critical FAA programs, including the National Airspace System Infrastructure (NASI), Unstaffed Infrastructure

Sustainment (UIS), Runway Status Lights (RWSL), and Power Systems Group (PSG), as well as numerous regional reimbursable projects, international customers, and military service partners. Building upon this proven track record, AJW-L continues to play a key role in supporting the FAA’s modernization efforts, including the Brand-New Air

Traffic Control System (BNATCS)—the FAA’s largest infrastructure modernization initiative since the advent of commercial aviation—by providing the shelter solutions and logistics expertise necessary to support evolving National Airspace System requirements.

2.0 Objective

The objective of this requirement is to identify and procure a robotic lift system capable of safely and efficiently lifting, positioning, rotating, and maneuvering portable shelter units utilized in FAA logistics and infrastructure support operations. The desired solution should be operable by no more than two personnel, utilize rechargeable battery-powered operation, provide a minimum lifting capacity of 18,750 pounds, offer at least six (6) inches of lift capability, include remote-control functionality, and provide 360-degree rotational movement. The system must be capable of accommodating rectangular portable shelter units ranging in size from 10 feet by 16 feet to 12 feet by 24 feet.

3.0 Scope of Work

The contractor shall provide a robotic lift system and all associated equipment, training, documentation, and support necessary to safely lift, position, rotate, and maneuver portable shelter units ranging from 10 feet by 16 feet to 12 feet by 24 feet and weighing up to at least 18,750 pounds. The system shall be designed for safe operation by a maximum of two personnel and include rechargeable battery-powered operation, remote-control functionality, a minimum of six (6) inches of lift capability, and 360-degree rotational movement. The contractor shall furnish all required operating manuals, warranty information, preventive maintenance documentation, safety certifications, and technical specifications, including electrical requirements for operation and charging.

Additionally, the contractor shall provide pricing for operator training with at least one unit, identify any certification requirements for operators, describe the training program and recommended training frequency, and provide information regarding the availability of replacement batteries, parts, and maintenance support. Prior to award consideration, the contractor shall be capable of conducting an on-site, no-cost, no-obligation demonstration of the proposed system to validate operational capabilities and suitability for FAA shelter handling requirements.

4.0 Technical Requirements
