Vendor will be required to install gear in accordance with the DHC-6 Twin Otter Components Maintenance Manual. All parts including axles, stays, compression blocks, bolts, fittings, bushings, washers, bearings will be provided by NOAA. Any miscellaneous parts, consumables and tools are to be provided by the vendor. This installation will fulfill a 5000 hour/ 60 month Dehavilland/Bombardier Main Landing Gear inspection requirement. The Main Landing Gear assemblies that will be provided have previously undergone the “D” Check Inspection in accordance with Maintenance Manual P/N PSM 1-63-2, page 203-207, including Service Bulletin 6/380.

OVER AND ABOVE DISCREPANCIES If any additional discrepancies outside of normal repair criteria are discovered during performance of the work, the selected discrepancies, will be provided in a written report to include any parts required, labor required, and cost estimate for the additional work. This work will be considered as “over-and-above” costs. The selected contractor will not proceed with the additional work until approval for the additional work is received from the Government Point of Contact. The selected contractor shall accomplish all the work in accordance with the manufacturer’s repair/overhaul manuals and applicable repair station procedures. Labor, Parts, Discounts, and Warranties The selected contractor shall provide all replacement parts, materials, and consumables.

Parts or components in an “as removed” condition will not be installed in the assemblies. Any part or component that has not reached its recommended service life but fails inspection and needs to be replaced will be treated as an “over-and-above.” Since the Government cannot determine which parts or components, if any, meet these criteria, bidding maintenance contractors shall provide, in writing, the labor rate they will charge the Government, per hour for “over-and-above” discrepancies. Secondly, bidding contractors are asked to provide what percent discount off list price for replacement parts will be given. Period of Performance Due to mission requirements and the limited number of spares possessed by the AOC the selected contractor is required to complete all work within 60 calendar days after receipt of the aircraft at the contractor’s facility. Should abnormal requirements and/or circumstances occur which would require an extension of this performance period, the selected contractor should immediately provide documentation to the CO and the POC as to the reason and extent of the abnormal requirements and/or circumstances that caused the delay in completing the work according to the schedule. The selected contractor shall also provide the best estimate of the extension required. Insurance against Loss or Damage to Government Property The selected contractor shall, at its own expense, provide and maintain during the performance of this work a minimum of $2,000,000.00 of insurance. The policies evidencing required insurance shall contain an endorsement to the effect that any cancellation or any material change adversely affecting the Government’s interest shall not be effective: a) For such a period as the laws of the State in which this work is to be performed prescribe; or b) Until 30 days after the insurer or the Contractor gives written notice to the Contracting Officer, whichever period is longer.
