About this file

This is a Statement of Objectives (SOO) for an electrical power extraction project at Arnold Air Force Base (AEDC), Tennessee, issued January 23, 2026, under SOO #16273-26-003. The primary objective is to install load banks connected to two generators and power supplies for starters across three separate test facilities to extract electrical power, including all required utilities, equipment, and controls. The contractor must deliver a comprehensive Statement of Work (SOW) that addresses design, procurement, fabrication, installation, inspection, testing, and checkout activities to achieve the performance requirements defined in the attached Performance Parameters document.

The contract requires identification of 12 minimum milestones spanning from Project Kickoff through On-Site System Orientation/Training, with specific design review expectations detailed in Appendix B. Data deliverables include technical documentation such as site plans, operational drawings, fabrication and installation drawings, analysis reports, equipment specifications, hazard tracking logs, risk assessments, permits, manufacturing and installation plans, failure modes analysis, test plans, examination and pressure test results, performance testing results, training materials, and user manuals. The Government will receive unlimited data rights to all contractor-provided technical data, analysis, drawings, and programming. The contractor must develop and maintain a quality control plan with corrective action procedures to ensure milestones are met. Training must be on-site with recordings provided to the Government for future reference. The SOO emphasizes maximum contractor flexibility to innovatively manage schedule, performance, risks, warranties, subcontracts, and data while maintaining clear government visibility into these elements.

Statement of Objectives (SOO) AEDC-Arnold AFB: Electrical Power Extraction

Distribution A: Approved for public release: distribution unlimited.

IRA-26-1254

1. Program Objectives The objective of this effort is to provide the capability to extract electrical power from three separate test facilities at Arnold AFB, TN. This will be achieved through the installation of load banks that can be connected to two generators to extract the power and a power supply for a starter at each facility. The project also includes all utilities, equipment, and controls required to support the new load banks. The minimum success criteria for the system are described in the attached performance parameters.

2. Contract Objectives At a minimum, the contract shall define the following:

2.1. Work to-be Performed:

Provide specific, performance-based, quantitative terms of the work to-be-done, in the form of a Statement of Work (SOW), to satisfy the performance requirements established in Attachment 1 – Performance Parameters. The SOW shall clearly identify and describe, in detail, all design, procurement, fabrication, installation, inspection, testing, and checkout activities required to provide a fully functional electrical power extraction system.

2.2. Milestones:

Planned, significant events shall be identified in the SOW, including a schedule identifying when each will occur. Milestones shall include, at a minimum:

Project Kickoff Meeting Requirements Review * Preliminary Design Review * Load Bank Design / Specification Approval Power Supply Design / Specification Approval Intermediate Design Review * Critical Design Review * Final Design Review * Completion of Fabrication and Installation Verification Readiness Review * System Readiness Review * On-Site System Orientation / Training

* See Appendix B in Attachment 1 – Performance Parameters for specific expectations regarding these design reviews.

2.3. Data Deliverables.

Tangible or intangible data items produced as a result of the work performed shall be identified in the SOW, as well as their anticipated delivery date, method of delivery, format, and quantity.

Data Deliverables for this effort shall include, at a minimum, all documentation identified in Appendix B in Attachment 1 – Performance Parameters, including the following:

Statement of Work Site Plan Operational Drawings (P&IDs, Schematics, Line Diagrams, or Wiring Diagrams) Fabrication and Installation Drawings Analysis Reports Equipment Specification for Major Equipment Hazard Tracking Log Project Risk Assessment Permits Demolition Plan Manufacturing Plan Installation Plan Concept of Operations Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) Verification, Validation, and Acceptance Plan System Test Plan Non-Destructive Examination Results Pressure Test Results Performance Testing Results Training Materials and Documentation User Manuals or Vendor-Supplied Maintenance Documentation

2.4. Data Rights:

The Government shall receive Unlimited Data Rights to all Contractor-Provided technical data, analysis, drawings, and programming produced in performance of the SOW.

2.5. Training:

The Government shall receive on-site orientation and training for all new equipment or systems. Training will be recorded by the Government for future use.

3. Quality Control Plan (QCP):

The contract shall define the development and maintenance of a quality control plan to ensure the requirements established within this Statement of Objectives, including all attachments, are met in accordance with the SOW. This shall include the development and implementation of procedures to meet milestones and to ensure appropriate corrective action is taken when milestones are not met.

4. Program Management Objective:

Allow offerors the maximum flexibility to innovatively manage schedule, performance, risks, warranties, subcontracts, and data so that it satisfies the user’s performance requirements (see Attachment 1 – Performance Parameters). Clear government visibility into the schedule, performance, and risks shall be maintained.
