Description: The U.S. Army is seeking to locate potential source(s) that can provide contractor logistical support (CLS) and depot repair of all fielded configurations of the Enhanced Position Location Reporting Systems (EPLRS) Receiver-Transmitter (RT), begin ning in about April/May 2009. The length of this CLS effort is six (6) years with four (4) 1 year option, for a total of a ten year effort, involving approximately 1100 RT repairs per year. The CLS effort consists of depot repair effort to include: inspe ction, diagnosis, and troubleshooting, testing, verifying functionality to restore the end items and repairable subassemblies or equivalents to serviceable condition. The CLS effort shall also upgrade, revise, and process logistics data and requirements as applicable, and perform other tasking as required, to successfully support the fielded EPLRS RT radios. The functional capabilities for which the end item was designed will not be changed, modified, or altered. The functional configuration will also not be changed, modified, or altered during repair unless directed by a Government approved Engineering Change Proposal (ECP). The CLS effort shall provide depot repair for all Government Furnished Equipment (GFE) hardware and ensure that all GFE remains in se rviceable condition. The CLS effort shall perform the minimum required to return any GFE equipment to a serviceable condition for its intended operational use. The CLS effort shall repair end items received from authorized users in the United States Army ( USA), the United States Air Force (USAF) and Air National Guard (ANG), the United States Marine Corps (USMC), and any other authorized Government agencies in other US military services. The CLS effort shall then return serviceable replacement end items wit hin a repair turn-around-time (TAT) of thirty (30) days from the induction of said item into the Contractors facility, thru the Army Standard Supply System repair process. The repair process also utilizes Commercial Asset Visibility (CAV) which allows the Government to monitor the rate of stock usage at the contractors plant and assist in preventing zero stock balance availability. TAT measurement will begin upon the contractors receipt of the repairable item accompanied by a properly executed DD Form 1149, or equivalent, and end upon placement of item into Depot stock. Special shipping support will be provided by the contractor to establish a worldwide express address to support all customers including outside of continental United States (OCONUS). Th e contractor shall obtain all necessary customs and other government authorizations, licenses, and permits to ship equipment to, and receive equipment from any OCONUS location. Identification of the proposed location or locations of depot maintenance suppo rt must be provided to the Government in response to this sources sought notice. In addition to the above described repair services, the Government requires field service representative (FSR) support, management of design changes and ECPs as directed by t he Government, and perform hardware upgrade and retrofit of fielded systems, which for DOD now number in total RTs in the field of over 19,000. Note that the Government only owns performance specifications for the RT, and the RT internal drawings/design /repair procedures are proprietary to the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) Raytheon Company. The performance specification for the latest production configuration of the EPLRS can be emailed to interested parties by contacting Mr. Victor Pinlac, (73 2) 532-5467, Fax 732-532-9135, E-mail: victor.pinlac@conus.army.mil or Ms Lynda Macdonald, IMS, Comm 732-532-4189, FAX 732-532-9135, email, Lynda.MacDonald@conus.army.mil, Lynda.MacDonald@us.army.mil.
