The Performance Work Statement (PWS) outlines the Repair and Return Program for Bradley Fighting Vehicles as part of the Elbit contract. The primary objective is to enhance the repair turnaround time for serviceable components, facilitating improved supply availability for military operations. The document details the responsibilities of the contractor, including receiving unserviceable items, conducting inspections, and ensuring components are restored to designated Condition Codes (A for serviceable, B for acceptable with qualifications, and F for unserviceable but reparable).
The PWS stipulates repair requirements, including documentation, turnaround schedules (not exceeding 90 business days), and strict protocols for scrapping components that cannot be repaired. It includes appendices listing the specific National Stock Numbers (NSNs) for repair and detailed contract document summaries. Additionally, it emphasizes the contractor's accountability in tracking repairs, maintaining compliance with technical specifications, and providing detailed repair reports. The directives aim to ensure that the military receives efficient and reliable components essential for mission readiness while adhering to the necessary government regulations and approval processes.
