A multi-disciplined engineering team with expert knowledge and reach back to corporate Bell resources is needed to provide repair instructions which may require modification support, accident investigation support, re-qualification data, and technical order changes in support of the TH-1 and UH-1 rotary platforms referred to in this document as H-1. Life-cycle sustainability for the H-1 necessitates Bell engineering support available through this contractual agreement. While the government had a full data package delivered with the aircraft in the 1960’s, the data was/has not been maintained over the years to a level that sufficiently captures all design changes since aircraft delivery. At any given time, the H-1 organic depot acquires engineering assistance to resolve Periodic Depot Maintenance (PDM) issues beyond the published technical orders. This Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) engineering support contract enable the United States Air Force (USAF) System Program Office (SPO) engineers access to expertise and engineering data to effectively resolve any PDM issue and manage requirements. This contract is to obtain engineering support from the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). This support will provide the United States Air Force (USAF) H-1 System Program Office (SPO) technical expertise greater than that possessed, access to OEM proprietary data including but not limited to structural/component data, drawings, qualification data, and analysis techniques as required to adequately maintain operational, safety, suitability, and effectiveness (OSS&E) for the H-1 platform. The specific tasks will require the expertise, analysis techniques, and proprietary data held only by the OEM. The effort regularly delivers the following to the Government: technical reports, monthly status reports, agendas, minutes, and a final report.
