    Attachment 3 - Statement of Work (SOW).pdf
    The United States Coast Guard seeks a certified contractor to provide overhaul and repair services for Hamilton Sundstrand manufactured aircraft components, specifically the 14RF-37 propeller assembly and associated parts. The goal is to maintain the airworthiness of its HC-144 Maritime Patrol Aircraft fleet. Contractors must have access to appropriate OEM publications and be FAA-authorized. Offerings should include component teardown, inspection, repair, and testing, adhering to OEM specifications. Emphasis is on prompt service, with turnaround times varying based on the level of service required. The Coast Guard anticipates two levels of service: "Repair," focusing on specific defective conditions, and "Overhaul," involving more extensive work. Both levels have different turnaround time requirements. Contractors are responsible for providing all necessary resources, including tooling, manuals, and parts, with some specific replacements mandated during overhauls. The scope also includes compliance with corrosion treatment protocols, as these components are often exposed to salt-laden environments. Environmental and preservation guidelines must be followed to ensure the safety and longevity of the repaired or overhauled parts. Documentation, tracking, and reporting are crucial, with contractors responsible for detailed records and reports using specified formats. The Coast Guard will evaluate proposals based on the contractor's ability to meet these requirements, with added focus on OEM compliance, turnaround times, and cost-effectiveness. Key dates and contract details are to be determined.

This data allows the agency to assess the offeror's ability to deliver on time and within budget, which is a key consideration for future procurements.
