(End of provision) DRAFT STATEMENT OF WORK CONTRACTOR TRAINING SUPPORT SERVICES FOR THE A1U Dated: December 5, 2012 1.0 GENERAL 1.1 SCOPE In order to ensure safe, economical and effective operational employment of these aircraft, and in keeping with the excellent stewardship of American tax-payer resources, the U. S. Coast Guard needs personnel properly trained in maintaining newly installed Avionics 1 Upgrade (A1U) aircraft equipment. The U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) seeks a contractor to develop a detailed hands on A1U maintenance troubleshooting training curriculum complete with troubleshooting instruction down to the A1U Line Replaceable Units (LRU)s for the USCG's Fleet of HC-130H aircraft. This effort requires the Contractor to develop a maintainer course for training USCG Fleet maintenance personnel for all newly installed A1U systems equipment to include training and use of maintenance procedure cards (MPCs). The maintainer course shall be developed in accordance with the guidelines specified in the USCG Training System SOPs. The contractor's course shall include but shall not be limited to, overviews of installed A1U equipment; troubleshooting instruction of all A1U systems equipment to the LRU level; fault Isolation procedures; safety requirements, scheduled maintenance training; and operational performance checks for A1U systems equipment. The primary USCG personnel rate to be trained with this course will be Aviation Electronics Technicians (AETs). All training materials and training aids developed for this task shall be considered property of the USCG and shall be delivered in its entirety as a requirement of completion of this task. The delivered course curriculum will be a complete "ready for use" training course that the USCG will use to train HC-130H AETs responsible for A1U system maintenance. 1.2 BACKGROUND The Coast Guard employs a bi-level maintenance structure consisting of organizational and depot level maintenance. Organizational level maintenance is maintenance performed at each Air Station by trained CG technicians and includes troubleshooting to the LRU component level as well as scheduled maintenance required by the precocity specified by the Maintenance Due List (MDL). Depot level maintenance includes repair of inoperable systems equipment that can only be repaired by the OEM or designated USCG depot center(s).
