PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS)/ STATEMENT OF WORK (SOW) Inspection of ALCO Engine Cylinder Heads Overhauled Requesting Agency/Section: US Army Corps of Engineers, Philadelphia District Wanamaker Bldg. 100 Penn Square East Philadelphia, PA 19107-3390 Place of Performance: Fort Mifflin 6400 Hog Island Rd. Philadelphia, PA 19153-5098 PERIOD of PEFORMANCE: Work to be completed no later than 150 days after date of contract. STATEMENT OF WORK SPARES DESIGNATION: MD-09-05-22 It is the Government's intention to have a total of fifty (56) ALCO model 251-C marine engine cylinder heads overhauled. Contractor shall provide all labor, parts, materials, equipment and services required to rebuild and overhaul engine cylinder heads in accordance with ALCO specifications MI-11020G, DRP-12200N, and DRP-12400H. "It is the contractor's responsibility to re-build the parts to the latest revision of the manufacturer's specifications." NOTICE TO CONTRACTOR: Prospective vendors should be aware that the ALCO part numbers listed throughout this package were those available to us at the time. The Government realizes that numbers are constantly being revised or superseded, especially with GE/ALCO now being FM/ALCO under Coltec Industries, and now Fairbanks Morse/Alco Engine Div. It is the contractor's responsibility to ascertain which parts numbers have been changed and automatically use the newer parts numbers for parts, so long as the part being provided is still the exact same OEM part. If the parts themselves have been altered, then the contractor must notify the Government representative or Contracting Officer. The Contractor is to provide documentation to the origin of all parts used in overhauling the 251-C cylinder heads. The description provided herein identifies the ALCO 251 style engines used on board the U.S. Army Dredge McFARLAND. The correct rebuilt head is to be determined by written description of parts to be utilized more so then the part number. Much discussion arises from which part numbers are current versus those superseded. Again, the correct unit is to be determined by narrative description more so then part number. NOTE: The contractor is responsible for shipping charges both for receiving the material to be refurbished, and once the material has been rebuilt and being returned to the Government. The contractor can either make arrangements with his own carrier or have the Government pick a carrier. In either event, the shipping charges shall be collect to the Contractor. Coordination for shipment of the engine heads shall be with Richard Burns, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Fort Mifflin Distribution Center, at 1-215-365-5095. "It is the contractor's responsibility to re-build the parts to the latest revision of the manufacturer's specifications." No engine head will be condemned because of the casting or serial number. It is understood that a newer style head casting have been developed and utilized on some ALCO engines, especially those that run at a much higher speed then those used by the Dredge McFARLAND. For his reason, ALCO has been condemning the older serialized engine heads. The government is not changing out the current Dredge McFARLAND engine heads to the newer style, which required a one-time adapter kit. It is our intent to continue to utilize the older style engine application. The only reason an engine head casting is to be condemned is because of the lack of rebuilding ability, due to cracks, pitting, corrosion, or test failure. The repair facility must be willing to accept this condition prior to submission of bid or accepting award of the purchase order. AT THIS TIME, THE GOVERNMENT WILL NOT PURCHASE NEW STYLE HEADS. Any casting condemned for any reason must be returned to the Government, with a written explanation of why it is being condemned. The casting itself must be marked in an indelibly marking "CONDEMNED". These units are Government property and are to be treated as such, no matter what the condition or status. It is the intent of this acquisition to completely disassemble, thoroughly clean the ALCO engine heads and parts, then to rebuild, overhaul, test, and return to serviceability. The ALCO engine heads are for the 251-C model diesel engine. All work shall be in strict accordance with the below listed and all ALCO rebuilding instructions, bulletins, and service manual MI-110206; DRP-12200N; DPR-12400H, MI-11020G; and EB-11020. REQUIREMENTS: These requirements are to be completed in conjunction with the information provided by ALCO rebuilding specifications, requirements, and service manual MI-11020G, and applicable publication listed on the preceding page. A. After disassembly of the heads and parts, examine all parts including valves, seats, springs, valve stem guides, and yokes. Measure all clearances and dye test for cracks, and then report findings in writing to the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) via the Condition Report, one condition report per cylinder head. B. The stripped heads shall be dipped in a solution that will clean all internal passages free of scale, sediment and carbon accumulations. After cleaning, re-dip the heads in a neutralizer and flush with fresh water. C. Hydrostatically test heads to 70 lbs. With 190 degree water as per ALCO instruction MI- 11020G and prove tight. D. Re-roll fuel injection sleeve, if leaking. E. Replace all valve guides, only with ALCO guides. All guides shall be contractor furnished. F. Replace existing valves for the intake ports; replace valves with new contractor furnished ALCO brand 30-degree valves. This shall include all standard or oversized valve seats for intake valves. All valves and seats are to be ALCO authorized parts. Any boring or machine work for the installation of oversized valve seats shall be done at the Contractor's expense. G. If oversized seats are necessary or required, then all work shall cease for that cylinder head and the COR shall be notified immediately. Unless otherwise specified, the unfinished head shall be preserved, marked with condition, and returned to the Government, at which time the government shall not pay a full item price. The government may choose to replace this unit with another in need of repair. A reduced price for the work accomplished shall be submitted and be examined. If necessary, the contract will be modified, for the unfinished unit (s). H. Provide new snap rings and spring seats, with authorized ALCO parts, for the new contractor furnished 30-degree ALCO valves and any other minor parts or hardware necessary to install the valves. Insure proper seating of the new all valves to the all valve seats. Grind and lap as necessary to ALCO specifications. I. Machine grind and lap in all exhaust valves to the contactor furnished new valve seats standard or oversized. Contractor shall provide and install new spring seats and locks. Check concentricity of the valves to the seats in accordance with manufacturer's instructions and service manual MI-11020G. Replace all springs with only authorized ALCO replacement parts. Exhaust valves, which are worn beyond ALCO, requirements shall be replaced with new OEM exhaust valves. Any exhaust valve, which must be renewed, will be paid for separately by modification to this contract. J. Reassemble the heads as per MI-11020G. Blank off as required and test with compressed air. Prove intake and exhaust valves are tight. Any minor repairs, adjustments or regrinding and lapping shall be completed and the heads re-tested. If any heads cannot pass a second re-testing, this will be brought to the immediate attention of the C.O.R. at which time a determination will then be made to see if the engine head wear is beyond serviceable limitations. K. Check condition and re-install the two nozzle clamp studs, special plug for stud, and two special studs for H.P. fuel lines. If any of these are missing or are defective, provide and install exact ALCO replacements. Replacement parts will be Contractor furnished and paid for separately as a modification to the contract. L. Completed heads shall be wiped clean again, the outer perimeter given a coat of heat resistant primer, and when dry, a final coating of heat resistant enamel gray paint. Then each head shall be covered with a light liquid preservative material. Provide and install cardboard compression joint guards and strap them securely over the lapped compression joint surfaces. The head shall either be tightly wrapped with a moisture proof self-adhering wrapping material or place in an extra heavy duty tightly sealed plastic bag.008 inch thick minimum. Each finished engine head shall be packaged individually. One unit per container. M. Package containers can either be made of wood, a totally enclosed crate of 5/8-inch plywood minimum, with chocking and blocking to eliminate shifting in transit or handling. The lid must be secured with either lag bolts or Phillips head wood screws. This will eliminate destroying the crate to remove the head. N. As an option, the Contractor can provide substantially extra heavy duty full flapped slotted cartons having a minimum bursting strength of 600 psi, with a double faced corrugated fiberboard liner for sides. The engine head is to be chocked in place with fan fold type corrugated fiberboard material. The entire carton is to be sealed with extra heavy duty packing tape and stapled. Finally, the cartons are to be banded tightly closed with ½ inch to ¾ inch steel strapping material, two straps per carton. O.
