- U.S. COAST GUARD HU25 SLAT REPAIR/OVERHAUL STATEMENT OF OBJECTIVES 10 MARCH 03 1.0 BACKGROUND The U.S. Coast Guard currently operates twenty (20) HU-25 aircraft manufactured between 1982 and 1984 by Dassault-Breguet Aviation SA-Avions Marcel. These aircraft are used differently from general aviation as HU-25 missions frequently operate within salt-laden environments. This condition accelerates the corrosive attack to the HU-25?s leading edge slats. Over the years the slats have been cannibalized and repaired several times. Repaired slats do not meet the Original Equipment Manufacturer?s (OEM?s) critical profile and contour dimensions for fit to aircraft which contributes to excessive labor hours during installation. History shows that a complete disassembly of HU-25 slats is necessary for thorough inspections, which commonly require outer skin replacement. Slats are serial number tracked under the Coast Guard?s Aviation Computerized Maintenance System (ACMS). This tracking also provides a historical record of repair, overhaul, and item location. In order to maintain better configuration control, the Coast Guard has assigned and labeled slats with unique Coast Guard part numbers reflecting complete slat assemblies (see ARSC Control Drawing 925-267). 2.0 OBJECTIVE A. The Coast Guard?s objective is to obtain services of a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) authorized repair center to effectively repair/overhaul and provide complete, ready-to-install HU-25 slat assemblies. Repaired/overhauled slats must meet the OEM?s critical profile and contour dimensions to ensure the fit to aircraft with minimal trimming and adjustment during slat installation. In addition, corrosion preventative steps shall be incorporated during repair/overhaul. 3.0 The Coast Guard anticipates two levels of repair for leading edge slats. First, a ?baseline repair? would be required for slats that are subject to limited damage, such as exterior corrosion or impact damage. This would require skin replacement and hardware. Second, ?overhauls? would be required for slats that also exhibit significant wear and/or internal corrosion. The offeror shall provide a cost break down for items above and beyond a baseline skin replacement. At a minimum, these two levels of service should be addressed in the offeror's technical and cost proposal. Offeror?s may propose additional levels of service. The offeror is responsible for all necessary functions to perform services requested. This includes, but is not limited, required tooling, test equipment, parts, material, engineering services, management, maintenance, non-serviceable slat storage, preservation, shipping, etc., to repair/overhaul slats. The offeror?s responsibilities to Coast Guard ACMS consist of ensuring that the significant component history corresponds with the component, and that all OEM service bulletins remain incorporated upon completion of work. Under a performance-based contract structure, performance metrics and service level agreements will be used to monitor the performance of this contract. The Coast Guard Aircraft Repair and Supply Center?s (ARSC) HU-25 Product Line and the winning offeror will baseline and monitor progress using agreed-to performance metrics and service level agreements. B. To meet the Coast Guard?s objectives the offeror will be required to meet the following criteria: 1. Technical a. Provide detailed work specifications for slat baseline repair and overhaul b. Provide a written Performance Metrics plan c. Provide evidence of and ability to maintain a Quality System acceptable to the Coast Guard d. Either possess or show ability to obtain adequate technical data, tooling and fixtures to meet the OEM?s critical profile and contour dimensions per the OEM drawings listed in paragraph 3.0. e. Provide separate cost breakdowns for slat baseline repair and overhaul Note: The Coast Guard considers a baseline repair as replacement of slat skins and required hardware to make complete slat assemblies. An overhaul is considered over and above the repair scope and includes replacement of internal assemblies and costly cannibalized components (i.e. bearing and rail supports, internal structures, rails, movable rib assemblies, etc.) 2. Past Performance a. Provide documentation for having performed repair/overhaul of similar or like items b. Provide Points of Contact for past performance documentation for the past two years. Include references? name, company, phone number, and e-mail address. 3.0 APPLICABLE DOCUMENTS The following Technical Specifications are applicable: a. OEM drawings: 1.
