STATEMENT OF WORK

Introduction/Background This Statement of Work (SOW) defines the requirements to support procurement of a Navigation Database Services (NDB) Update Service from GE Aviation Systems LLC (GEAS) in support of the KC-130J Block 8.1 Upgrade Program for The United States Marine Corps (USMC). This is a critical need because not having the most current electronic word-wide navigational maps required for safe navigation could potentially place the aircraft and its aircrew in peril. In addition, the KC- 130J would not be able to fulfill worldwide warfighter requirements, thus putting into jeopardy the ability to sustain ground troops in the Area of Responsibility (AOR).

This is a flight ready NDB, which is formatted such that it can be downloaded without requiring the use of an additional software tool then subsequently loaded into the Flight Management Computer Systems (FMCS) r This NDB shall be compiled into a unique format that is derived from National Geospatial Intelligence Agency (NGA) produced Digital Aeronautical Flight Information File (DAFIF) 8.1 data for Refueling Tracks and Jeppesen ARINC 424 data for all other record types. The Contractor shall provide the NDB Update Service by processing the data supplied using its proprietary techniques, and deliver processed data in the form of NDB files to the USMC exclusively for use by the USMC in support of its KC- 130J aircraft.
3.0 Period of Performance
