Section C - Descriptions and Specifications

STATEMENT OF WORK

C.1 BACKGROUND

C.1.1. The United States Army is modernizing the laundry system associated with the Force Provider (FP) program.

FP is a containerized system with the objective to provide a stand-alone base camp capability for a broad array of Combat Service Support and Homeland Defense missions. Force Provider was originally Type Classified Standard in May of 1994 as a 550-personnel module capable of being complexed/combined to support a brigade sized force of 3300 personnel. Recent configuration changes allow the new module to support 600 personnel per module via four expeditionary base camps supporting 150 personnel each. This configuration is referred to as Force Provider Expeditionary (FPE) Life Support Module (LSM). Each 150 personnel FPE LSM contains 1 - Expeditionary TRICON Self-Service Launrdy System (ETSSLS).

C.1.2. Additionally, there is a Joint Services requirement for the ETSSLS associated with this Statement of Work (SOW) in support of hospitals and other deployable base-camp systems. By introducing standardized assets to the Joint Services community, FPE LSM can improve its maintenance repair supportability. The commonality of repair parts can be used to assist other services in maintaining overall operational readiness.

C.2 GENERAL SCOPE

C.2.1. The effort described in this SOW pertains to the production of the ETSSLS.

C.2.2. The ETSSLS described in this SOW is housed in expandable shipping Triple Container (TRICON) which measure 8’x 8’x 6-1/2’ in shipping configuration and expands on two sides. The ETSSLS shall be built in accordance with the Government’s specifications, supplied Technical Drawing Package and supporting documentation. The ETSSLS shall be packed for shipment per the supplied ETSSLS Equipment packing plan (attachment 0003). Pack-out equipment is defined in the ETSSLS Equipment pack-out list (Attachment 0002). The ETSSLS has been developed, tested, and certified based on this supplied information.

C.2.3. The Contractor shall furnish all personnel, labor, engineering, services, equipment (except that expressly stated herein to be furnished by the Government), materials, supplies, and facilities necessary to fabricate, integrate and manufacture the ETSSLS and provide all support hardware and software as indicated in this SOW. The work and services to be performed by the Contractor are detailed in this SOW. The Contractor shall not initiate any task without written direction by the Contracting Officer.

C.2.4. The intent of this contract is to produce the ETSSLS via a five (5) year Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ), Firm Fixed Price (FFP) contract vehicle until either the Army Acquisition Objective is achieved, all returning FPE LSM modules are converted to the self-service laundry configuration, and/or all Joint Service requirements are met, whichever comes first. The U.S. Army intends to buy at least one ETSSLS asset, and as many as 120 per year subject to availability of funds.

C.2.5. If the requirements of this SOW, subsidiary specifications, standards, drawings, or publications are in conflict, the Contractor shall refer the area of conflict to the Contracting Officer or the designated Contracting Officer's Representative for resolution.

C.2.6. At any time during the contract, if the results are not acceptable, the Government reserves the right to terminate the affected portion of the contract.

C.2.7. The Government anticipates awarding one contract on a Best Value basis to a vendor demonstrating the ability to produce the ETSSLS to the technical specifications drawing packages provided.

C.3 CONTRACT REQUIREMENTS

C.3.1. Contractor shall produce the ETSSLS in accordance with the paragraphs below. The TRICON with expandable “bump outs” will be Government Furnished Equipment (GFE). Contractor(s) may substitute parts specified in the drawing package(s) with “equivalent” items. Equivalent items shall meet form, fit and function of the original item. Contractors offering “equivalent” items shall include technical, performance, and or test data verifying “equivalency”. Contractor(s) shall propose requisite test cost and schedule as part of their proposal(s) associated with their “or equivalent” submission(s) in order to meet or exceed the requirements in the technical specifications and the performance characteristics specified in paragraph C.4. Any proposed changes shall be proposed and completely documented in an Engineering Change Proposal (ECP) per paragraph C.13.2

C.3.2. Contractor shall produce the ETSSLS in accordance with Drawing Package 9-2-0356 (Attachment 0001). The ETSSLS is housed in an 8' x 8' x 6’6” Convention for Safe Container (CSC) and International Standard for Organiazatgion (ISO) certified TRICON container which is modified to include two expandable wing section on opposing sides. The wings are expanded for operation providing approximately three times the floor space of a basic, non-expandable TRICON. The ETSSLS shall provide laundry support to 150 personnel per week (approximately 750 lbs. per day).

C.3.2.1. The salient points associated with the ETSSLS design are:

C.3.2.1.1. Four (4) 18 – lb stackable light commercial washer/dryer units

C-3.2.1.2. Onboard water supply pumping system and onboard waste tank with integrated discharge pumping system.

C.3.2.1.3. Power and water connections to accommodate interface to the Force Provider Base Camp

C.3.2.1.4. Environmental control and ventilation maintaining internal temperatures of 60 – 90F with exterior temps of 33 – 120F

C.3.2.1.5. As built in accordance with the drawing package, the laundry shall pack-out in the expandable TRICON with all necessary support equipment required for “stand alone” operation.

C.3.2.1.6. The contractor shall provide a Contingency Spares Package (CSP). The CSP shall be based on the Contingency Spares List (CSL) in Attachment 0006. The CSL will be evaluated during contractor testing listed in paragraph C.15 The CSP will be finalized subsequent to that testing.

Other constraints are inherent to the as-built design and performance specifications described in subsequent sections of this document and or in the drawing packages. These constraints are not prioritized. The systems depicted in the drawing packages have undergone iterations of design modifications and testing in order to achieve full function across the performance requirements spectrum. Any recommended changes or modifications to the technical specifications and drawing package may require testing.

C.4.3. The containers shall meet ISO standards for inter-modal shipping and have CSC certifications for stacking nine containers high in shipping configuration. Containers shall accommodate interface with power inputs and outputs, water connections, ventilation, etc and otherwise completely integrate with the specific equipment associated with the ETSSLS it supports.

C.4.4. The completed and packed-out asset shall not exceed 9,500 pounds. Each system packs out within its container in accordance with the packing plan associated with each system.

C.4.5. The electric power demand shall not exceed the following power limits, Laundry, 36 KW, 208VAC, 3 PH;

The primary source of electric power is the 60 kW tactical quiet generator (supplied in the field), commercial power (60 kW, 208 VAC, 3PH, 50/60 Hz).
