1. Scope

1.1. Scope: This document defines the tasks associated with the maintenance of Test Program Sets (TPS) running on the AN/ALM-246 Tactical Electronic Warfare System (TEWS) Intermediate Support Station (TISS) which support diagnosis and repair of the AN/ALR-56C Radar Warning Receiver (RWR). Deficiency Reports (DRs) written against the TPS’ will be investigated, solutions found will be tested and verified and the corrected software will be fielded to improve testing and testing verticality of the AN/ALR-56C system.

1.2. Background: The AN/ALM-246 Tactical Electronic Warfare System (TEWS) Intermediate Support Station (TISS) is used to maintain the AN/ALR-56C Radar Warning Receiver (RWR) for the F-15C/D/E aircraft. Over the past several years, numerous Deficiency Reports (DRs) have been issued for the AN/ALR-56C system which were eventually determined to be Test Program Set (TPS) issues. Verticality testing issues have been identified as a significant cause.

With the current operations tempo, every effort must be made to reduce shop flow time by correcting DRs that restrict serviceable assets from being available to the war fighter.

1.3. Affected Software: AN/ALR-56C TPS software and TISS station software will be maintained to correct DRs.

1.4. Period of Performance: The period of performance for the contract/order shall be one (1) year basic with four (4) one (1) year options.

1.5. Place of Performance: These services shall be performed at the Contractor’s facility in St.

Louis, MO.

1.6. Government Property to be Provided: Government property to be provided includes items provided under contract F33657-01-D0026-RJ84 which is already at the Contractor’s facility to support this effort. Government Property will be used with the new contract on a non-interference basis.
