Scope of Work: The contractor shall provide all personnel, supervision, professional expertise, vehicles, tools, materials, services, equipment and quality control to perform quarterly preventative maintenance and repairs of equipment listed in Appendix "A" for the Great Falls MRI Trailer.

Contractor shall inspect, test, calibrate and service the equipment, as required in accordance with manufacturer, industry and statutory requirements, in order to prevent premature equipment failures and to extend equipment life in accordance with the Statement of work (SOW). 3. Background: The Montana Health Care System has a portable MRI system installed in a 40" box trailer equipped with utility systems, backup generator, HV/AC, and patient lift system. This trailer is considered a medical facility that performs diagnostic procedures and will require maintenance, inspection, testing, and repair in accordance with NFPA and Joint Commission requirements. B.RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE CONTRACTOR For the equipment listed and the agreed upon contract cost, the contractor shall provide the specified services necessary to maintain the equipment in good operating condition and to support and assist in a third party annual and or semi-annual inspection and testing. This service is further defined below: MAINTENANCE 1.Lubrication All parts of the machinery and equipment requiring lubrication should be lubricated at regular periodic intervals with lubricants of a grade as recommended by the manufacturer. The use of excessive amount of lubricant should be avoided. 2.Guide Rails Guide rails, except those of elevators equipped with roller or other guiding members not requiring lubrication, should be kept well lubricated, but an excess of lubricant should be avoided. Rails on which lubricant is used should be cleaned down at least once a year. Where necessary, a non-flammable or high flash point solvent should be used to remove excess lubricant, lint and dirt which will accumulate on them and which presents a hazard in case of fire in the hoistway. Where sliding type safeties are used, it is important that guide rail lubricants, or pre-lubricated or impregnated guide shoe gibs where used, be of a type recommended by the manufacturer of the elevator which will not reduce the holding power of the car safety. Rust preventative compounds such as paint, mixtures of graphite and oil and similar coatings should not be used as they may interfere with and in many cases prevent proper operation of the car safety. If it is considered necessary for any reason to use any of these substances, the manufacturer of the elevator will be consulted before applying the substance. The VA will be given a written statement from the manufacturer that they were contacted and approval was given. 3. Oil Buffers The oil level should be checked at least once per quarter and the buffer kept full to the level indicated by the manufacturer. The manufacturer of the buffer should be consulted as to the proper grade of oil to be used in the buffer. Buffer plungers shall be kept clean and shall not be coated or painted with a substance which will interfere with their operation. 4. Controller Contactors and Relays Controller contractors and relays shall be kept clean and free from dirt and should be lubricated where necessary as recommended by the manufacturer (Quarterly). 5. Car Safety Mechanisms All moving parts of car-safety mechanisms should be kept clean and free of rust and dirt and should be lubricated at frequent intervals. This is especially important where the equipment is exposed to water or corrosive vapors or excessively damp conditions. Corrosion or rusting of the parts may prevent operation of the safety (Quarterly). C. PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE (PM) Contractor personnel will provide preventative maintenance service at quarterly intervals. The time interval between preventative maintenance checks shall be greater than five (5) days and less than ten (10) days. Contractor shall inspect, test, calibrate, repair and service the equipment, as required by the manufacturer, industry or statutory requirements, to prevent premature equipment failures and to extend equipment life. This service may be performed separate from or in conjunction with other service. The contractor shall, during the first effective month of the contract, supply to the VA for approval by the Contracting Officer or their representative, a proposed preventative maintenance (PM) checklist which will be used by the contractor's personnel during their PM visits. PM service calls will be scheduled in consultation with the VA to take place during the normal duty hours and at the convenience of the VA. The VA will be given two (2) complete copies of the PM checklist after each PM is completed. D.

The emergency response time-frame remains the same twenty -four (24) hours per day, seven (7) days per week, three-hundred sixty-five (365) days per year. G.
