This amendment updates solicitation W911N226QA001, revising the Performance Work Statement (PWS) to remove all references to Halotron units. Key changes include modifications to various contract line items (CLINs) for six-year maintenance, hydrostatic testing, and recharge services. Specifically, Halotron-related services are replaced with FE36, Class D, 20lb ABC, 15lb CO2, 5lb CO2, Water Mist, and Wet Chemical alternatives, with corresponding adjustments in estimated quantities. Several CLINs, including those for Class D 6-year maintenance, FE36 hydrostatic testing, and Wet Chemical recharge, were entirely deleted. The amendment also updates the list of contract documents, replacing an older PWS version with a revised one. These changes ensure the solicitation accurately reflects current requirements by eliminating Halotron-specific provisions and updating related service descriptions and quantities.
