USMC Training Device Study

1. PURPOSE

The purpose of this requirement is to perform a safety inspection and analysis of the existing Underwater Egress Training (UET) equipment, specifically the Cross Gantry Hoist

(XGH) and support structures at each of the four UET sites and deliver a report to the

Government detailing the findings of each inspection and analysis of the results.

2. SCOPE

The United States Marine Corp has issued a “No-Swim” due to a recent training accident in open water. On 30 July 2020, an Amphibious Assault Vehicle (AAV) sank off the coast of

San Clemente Island, California, 9 deaths. In response to the training accident, the purpose of this effort is to assess the safety and validate/verify the maximum load capacity of the existing trainer lifting systems. A structural engineering analysis and assessment of the existing Cross Gantry Hoist (XGH) systems and their corresponding support structures are required to verify the training device’s structural integrity as a result of age and usage rates.

3. PERIOD AND PLACE OF PERFORMANCE

A. Period of Performance

120 days

B. UET Locations

Marine Corps Base (MCB), Camp Lejeune, NC

MCB, Camp Pendleton, CA

MCB, Kaneohe Bay, HI

MCB, Camp Hansen, Okinawa, Japan

4. REQUIREMENTS

A. Security

The information provided to the contractor will be unclassified and/or Controlled

Unclassified Information (CUI). The contractor is not required or expected to have Facility

Clearance and contractor personnel supporting this effort are not required to possess

Personnel Clearance Levels. If the company has a DISS account, the FSO is required to establish, populate and own the DISS record of every contractor processed for and/or issued a CAC. Any contractor personnel requiring access to U.S. Government CUI shall possess a completed background investigation (minimum of a T-1/NACI) for this Public

Trust Position. Due to Insider Threat concerns, the Company is requested to notify the

MCSC AC/S G-2 Personnel Security Office (PERSEC Office) at 703-432-3952/3490/3374, within 24 hours, of any adverse/derogatory information associated with the 13 Adjudicative

Guidelines concerning any contractor performing on this contract, if they have been issued a CAC and/or a Building Badge.

B. On-Site Visits

The contractor’s engineering team shall travel to each location, to examine the structures and review all available documentation. The contractor shall coordinate the site visits with the Technical Project Manager (TPM) and with each Training Liaison Officer (TLO) at least 30-days prior to travel to that site. The Government will provide TLO information upon award.

The contractor shall inspect, validate and verify the as-built structure matches the OEM structural drawings and that no intervening modification, damage, corrosion, loss of structural integrity, or missed connection has occurred that would affect the intended operation or reduce the original capacity. Validation ensures that the as-built structure meets the Governments needs and objectives. Verification ensures that the as-built structure’s design meets all requirements and specifications. The government does not own the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) Drawings for this system. The OEM is

Survival Systems USA, Groton, CT.

The contractor shall conduct a visual inspection and measurement of the existing XGH and support structures and document any unauthorized changes or conditions that could reduce the loading capacity of the XGH as originally designed and constructed.

The contractor shall assess and evaluate the condition of the lifting device and associated structures to determine including but not limited to: needed repairs, maximum lifting capacity, and recommend changes. The Government cannot provide the required product drawings, manuals, nor “as built” structural analysis to be used as the basis of the assessment and evaluation. The contractor will need obtain access to these materials through the OEM.

C. Analysis and Report

The contractor shall perform a structural analysis of the XGH crane and structures including foundations based on its 24,000 pound load capacity for each UET location. This analysis shall use the current Federal, State and local Building Codes and standards and

Department of Defense (DoD) Unified Facility Criteria (UFC).

The contractor shall provide a report using Contract Data Requirements List (CDRL) A002 to the Government detailing the findings of each inspection, analysis of the results, and recommendations for each of the four UET locations.

D. Review/Recommendation Meeting

The contractor shall actively participate in a summary of findings meeting, hosted by the

US Government or contractor, to review all findings and recommendations.

E. Programmatic Schedule

The contractor shall visit each site, conduct engineering assessment, provide recommended corrective actions all within the 120 day PoP. The contractor shall deliver a draft Analysis and Report detailing each site assessment no later than 45 calendar days before contract end date.

The contractor shall provide a detailed schedule showing when they will visit each site, the length of time they will be on site and the time to prepare each Site Assessment Report.

The Government will deliver comments no later than 15 calendar days after the contractor’s initial Site Assessment Report delivery.

The contractor shall incorporate all government comments prior to final delivery of the

Analysis and Report and before the contract end date.

F. Government Provided Information

The Government will provide the contractor access to and/or copies of all inspections

(crane and load tests) conducted at each site over the last two-years. Additionally, the

Government will provide any available information on the wire ropes that are currently installed on the systems.

5. OPERATING CONSTRAINTS

The contractor shall not interrupt training operations when performing site inspections.

Inspections shall be coordinated with the site leads and TLOs to work around the training schedule to the maximum extent possible. During inspection if the contractor discovers a safety condition that requires immediate stoppage of training or halt the use of XGH and lifting systems, the contractor shall inform the site lead of training stoppage and provide the

Government recommendations for appropriate mitigations.

COVID Travel Restrictions for Okinawa, JA.

All Contractor personnel shall be fully vaccinated, as defined by the Center for Disease

Control (CDC), and provide a signed DD3150.

Contractors are required to enter data into SPOT for OCONUS travel.

6. DELIVERABLES

The contractor shall provide deliverable as described in this SOW. Format and delivery schedule for deliverable shall be outlined in the applicable CDRL.
