STATEMENT OF OBJECTIVES (SOO) – FORMAT

HIGH PERFORMANCE ROTOR ASSEMBLY FOR UH-60L

1.0 Purpose

The Army has a need to apply transitioning rotor technologies to the UH-60L in the areas of lightweight materials, active flaps and flap controls, hub mounted vibration suppression, and unloaded lift offset to provide improved hover and cruise efficiency and reduced noise and vibration levels. In order to proceed from Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 5 to TRL 7, the Army requires a demonstration of these technologies through the analysis, design, development, and fabrication of two prototypes and application of one prototype onto an existing aircraft for flight testing.

2.0 Technical Objectives

2.1 The contractor shall provide two (2) each prototype high performance rotor assemblies for UH-60L in accordance with the proposed design.

2.2 The contractor shall receive and inspect a Government Furnished Equipment (GFE) UH-60L aircraft to determine condition of all sub-assemblies. The contractor shall repair and replace parts as necessary to restore the aircraft to Condition Code A.

2.3 The contractor shall remove the existing rotor assembly from the GFE aircraft and disposition it according to Government furnished procedures. The contractor shall integrate one high performance rotor assembly onto the GFE aircraft.

2.4 The contractor shall prepare the aircraft for a series of demonstration flights, ensuring airworthiness considerations are addressed. The contractor shall conduct the demonstration flights of the aircraft for the purposes of proving out the new rotor assembly. The contractor shall gather test data necessary to determine effectiveness of the new rotor technology at improving hover and cruise efficiency and reducing noise and vibration levels.

3.0 Program Management Objectives

3.1 The contractor shall utilize effective program management techniques in order to ensure cost, schedule and performance targets are met.

3.2 The contractor shall perform configuration management functions in support of this effort to ensure that any necessary changes to the baseline technical documentation are recorded.

3.3 The contractor shall perform quality management functions in support of this effort in accordance with the contractor’s AS9100 compliant Quality Management System.

4.0 Other

4.1 The Government will provide one (1) each UH-60L aircraft from the aviation boneyard and the detailed specifications for the high performance rotor assembly.

4.2 The Contractor shall notify the Prototype Integration Facility (PIF) Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) prior to shipping any and all hardware deliverables and for Inspection and Acceptance purposes shall provide Government Quality Assurance access to the product. The Contractor shall submit receiving reports using Wide Area Work Flow (WAWF) in one of the electronic formats that WAWF accepts. A “receiving report” is the data required by the clause at DFARS 252.246-7000, entitled “Material Inspection and Receiving Report.”

4.3 The contractor shall comply with Contractor Manpower Reporting requirements as set forth in the IDIQ Contract Statement of Work, paragraph 4.0.

4.4 Government inspection will be at Origin. Government acceptance will be at Origin. FOB will be at Origin.

4.5 The government anticipates awarding a Cost-Plus Fixed-Fee (CPFF) Completion Order as a result of this SOO.

4.6 The required distribution statement for data requirements is:

Distribution Statement D: Distribution authorized to the Department of Defense and U.S. DoD contractors only due to administrative or operational use, 28 April 2016. Other requests shall be referred to the Prototype Integration Facility, Bldg 5405, Redstone Arsenal, AL 35898-5000.
