Repair of Engine Extinguisher for use on MH-65

STATEMENT OF WORK (SOW) 70Z03826QB0000121 Page 1 of 5 Contractor Requirements 1. This requirement is for the repair of items listed in the following table utilized on the United States Coast Guard (USCG)’s H-65 helicopter. Upon receipt of the components, the contractor shall perform a test and evaluation to determine the condition of the item. Description Quantity National Stock Number Part Number Engine Extinguisher 15 1680-14-562-8832 10230-01 2. Test and Evaluation. If, after visual and functional inspections, an item is found to meet manufacturer's minimum performance specifications and is considered to be Ready for Installation (RFI) or is considered to be Beyond Economical Repair (BER) in accordance with (IAW) paragraph 11, the contractor will be allowed the firm fixed price for test and evaluation only. The contractor shall prepare a failure data report IAW paragraph 13 which shall be included with the returned component. The parts shall be marked "RFI” or “BER” and returned as-is. All other items shall be repaired IAW this SOW. 3. Repair. Non-RFI components shall be repaired and returned to RFI condition IAW the OEM minimum functional performance specifications and OEM’s most current CMM. Components shall be repaired for the specific fault noted on the DD Form 1577-2, Unserviceable (Repairable) Tag-Material, or CG-1577-A (11-90), Unsatisfactory Report Tag, which will be attached to each non-RFI item. The contractor shall perform an inspection and correct deficiencies found. This shall include, but is not limited to, replacement of missing or broken parts and the removal of any foreign matter or corrosion. In addition, the vendor must have the capability of releasing, capturing, re-using and/or refilling, and disposing of (as applicable) the existing extinguishing agent, and to complete successful hydrostatic testing on each extinguisher bottle to establish a new start date of the 5-year testing requirement. 4. During inspection and functional test, the presence of corrosion in a component shall constitute reason for a more thorough disassembly and inspection. Should corrosion be found, disassembly shall be made to the extent necessary to remove corrosion or replace the part, or parts, affected. Corroded parts shall be replaced, except in those cases where removal of corrosion from a part will not impair efficiency or safe operation of the part. Corrosion removal and treatment of affected areas will be accomplished IAW Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) specifications or Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Advisory Circular AC 43-4B, dated 09/11/2018, Corrosion Control for Aircraft. 5. Work under this purchase order shall be performed at the contractor’s facility or USCG approved facility. The contractor shall provide all necessary parts, materials, labor, tooling, test equipment and facilities to evaluate and repair the components listed in this purchase order at the firm-fixed prices listed in the schedule. If any parts or materials are not available to the Contractor and need to be provided as Government Furnished Equipment (GFE), the Contractor must make this requirement known in writing to the Contracting Officer for approval and indicate the reason they are unable to provide and the quantity for each GFE needed per component to be repaired. The contractor shall perform repair IAW applicable -- 1 of 5 -- Page 2 of 5 STATEMENT OF WORK (SOW) 70Z03826QB0000121 OEM’s Component Maintenance Manuals (CMMs), other repair specifications in lieu of an applicable CMM, and/or applicable test/acceptance criteria. Any deviations must be approved by the USCG. 6. The contractor must have access to required CMMs, repair specifications and/or test/acceptance criteria and any other required data to ensure all components are tested and repaired IAW the OEM’s current specifications and procedures. The USCG may review repair manuals and performance/test/ acceptance criteria as required. Original design or functional capabilities of the end item and parts thereof shall not be changed unless authorized or directed by the requirements of this SOW. 7. The Contractor must have access to all applicable documents and obtain current editions of all applicable documents. The USCG does not own nor can it provide the technical documents specified herein. Neither the closing date for receipt of offers nor contract award will be delayed pending receipt of these documents for any offeror. 8. Parts of a component found to be in a serviceable condition as a result of functional testing shall be reused. Missing parts and parts found to be defective or that require replacement by manufacturer’s instructions shall be replaced with parts meeting the manufacturer’s specifications and drawings or as otherwise authorized in writing by SRR Engineering. Replacement parts shall be new and accompanied with OEM traceability. The cost for parts that are replaced systematically during repair shall be included in the price listed in the schedule for these operations. Parts in serviceable condition from any Engine Extinguisher which would be found BER, can be used on other Engine Extinguisher(s) in this order as necessary if it could restore them to RFI condition. 9. Prices do not include components that have been cannibalized or severely damaged due to mishandling or crash damage. Additionally, the H-65 helicopter is used primarily around salt water at low altitude for search and rescue missions. Therefore, corrosion is to be anticipated and is considered "normal" for the aircraft. Corrosion does not constitute unusual damage. The USCG will be notified of components found to have excessive corrosion which may dictate an exclusion from the prices specified in the contract schedule. Such components shall be inspected, repair costs determined, and authorization to proceed obtained from the contract officer prior to commencement of work. 10. Components received which indicate obvious misuse, cannibalization or severe dam…
