ACCUMULATOR, POINT DAVIT

Statement of Work (SOW) / Performance Work Statement (PWS)

This document outlines the requirements for the contractor to perform overhaul services on a specific hydraulic accumulator (NSN: 3040-99-355-4929), aiming to restore it to a "like new" condition.

• Inspection and Overhaul: Contractor must inspect, estimate, and replace the internal bladder of the specified hydraulic accumulator.

• Parts: Only new original equipment manufacturer (OEM) parts are acceptable. The Coast Guard will provide bladder kits.

• Label Plates: Existing label plates must be removed and replaced with new metallic label plates showing make, model, serial numbers, and performance information.

• Paint Removal & Application: Existing paint must be removed, and surfaces prepared for painting. A Polysiloxane paint system (Color "SPAR" 10371) is required, meeting SFLC Standard Specification 6310.

• Testing: All overhaul tests must be witnessed by a Coast Guard Quality Assurance Representative (QAR). This includes an operational test and a pressure test to 3000 PSI (207 BAR) for 10 minutes with less than 1% pressure loss.

• Documentation: A detailed estimate, test results, and calibration records must be submitted.

• Assembly & Preservation: The overhauled accumulator must be delivered fully assembled, drained, with port openings capped, and wrapped in foam wrap.

• Packaging & Marking: Each accumulator must be individually packaged in a fully enclosed wooden container, with specific marking requirements including NSN, Item Name, Part Number, and "Coast Guard SFLC Material, Condition A."

• Overhaul must return the accumulator to its original performance and appearance.

• All tests must be successfully completed and witnessed.

• Calibration of test equipment must be traceable to NIST.

• Not explicitly stated, but implies contractor's facility for overhaul and testing, with final acceptance at destination.

• Contractor must immediately notify the Contracting Officer of any discrepancies in the unit received for overhaul.

• The Coast Guard will determine the disposition of any accumulator found unsuitable for repair.

• Contractor must maintain a test equipment calibration program.

• A warranty is required, guaranteeing the item against defects for 90 days after installation and up to two years after delivery.

This document is the "Packaging and Marking Guide For DoD" published by the Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) in March 2014. It serves as an informational guide for familiarization purposes and is not intended to replace contractual requirements, specifications, or regulations. The guide details various methods and standards for military packaging, preservation, and marking of items for the Department of Defense.

This guide is highly relevant for bidders who will be responsible for packaging and marking goods procured by the DoD. It outlines:

• Locations of Packaging Requirements: Where to find packaging and marking specifications within solicitations and contracts (e.g., Section D - Packaging & Marking, Section J - Attachments).
• Hazardous Materials Packaging: Regulations and requirements for packaging hazardous materials for land, water, and air transport.
• Packaging Methods: Detailed descriptions and illustrations of various military preservation and packing methods (e.g., Method 10 through Method 52), including specific requirements for waterproof bags, containers, and the use of desiccants and humidity indicators.
• Packaging Codes: An introduction to the Packaging Requirement Codes (PRC) system used in MIL-STD-20731E(1) to specify packaging details.
• Inspection Provisions: Details on preservation and packing inspections, including visual examinations and leakage/heat-sealed seam tests.
• Package Markings: Types of markings required, including identification, bar code, address, and special markings (e.g., hazardous materials, fragile, shelf-life).
• Key Specifications and Standards: References to relevant military standards (MIL-STD) and ASTM standards that govern packaging and marking.

Bidders should consult this guide to understand the expected standards for packaging and marking their deliverables to ensure compliance with DoD requirements.
