Description: This F117 Sustaining Engineering and Supply Chain Management effort will provide full propulsion sustainment support (engine and QEC). This effort includes: sustaining engineering (recurring and nonrecurring), supply chain management, and overhaul and repair (depot and field support) performed on the F117 engine. These engineering support activities include detailed design engineering, maintenance engineering and systems engineering support, technical analyses, drawing and source data maintenance/updates, flight safety analyses, reliability/maintainability analyses, liaison engineering support, stress analyses, accident investigation, engineering feasibility studies, materiel deficiency report analysis, field problem investigation, and in-flight emergency response support. The F117 supply chain management effort will require the contractor to meet the specified performance work statement (PWS) performance measurements and administer the supply chain management program. This includes supply chain management logistics, forecasting of parts, long lead-time parts procurement, reparable forecasting, cataloging, obsolescence issues, integration with the Oklahoma City Air Logistics Complex (OC-ALC) for depot/modular level repair/overhaul support, delivery of serviceable assets to depots and approved repair stations, budget computations, what-if computations, Time Compliance Technical Order (TCTO) kit supportability, and hosting meetings to support the F117 program office with supply chain management logistics and Government requests for supply chain management data. The F117 overhaul and repair effort will require P&W to provide depot overhaul and field repair services for the F117 propulsion system to ensure a serviceable, ready-to-install engine to meet the required War Readiness Engines (WRE) and Serviceable Propulsion System (SPS) levels.
