The requirement is for repair services for one (1) 9500B/3200 Oscilloscope Calibrator (Serial Number 045727) 1.0 DESCRIPTION OF MALFUNCTION: Unit intermittently fails self-test R002.007: 18.001 MHz Phase Lock Loop. 2.0 CONTRACTOR REQUIREMENTS: The contracted agency shall provide the following: 2.1 Full unit repair. 2.1.1 Service provider shall provide all technical materials to include schematics. 2.1.2 Service provider shall provide all personnel required to complete the SOW. 2.1.3 Service provider shall provide all facilities to complete SOW. 2.1.4 Service provider shall provide all tools to complete SOW. 2.1.5 Service provider shall pay for shipping all items back to the customer. 2.1.6 Service provider will provide warranty service for 90 days for all items repaired. 2.2 Calibration service to manufacturer's specifications. 2.2a Certificate of calibration meeting DI-QCIC-80798B standards. 2.2a.1 Data Item Description DI-QCIC-80798B requires the calibration certificate to include (NOTES shown below are to assist the PMEL's interpretation and verification of the requirement): a. Title, e.g. "Calibration Report" or "Calibration Certificate". b. Name and address of laboratory, and the location where the calibrations were carried out, if different from the address of the laboratory. c. Unique identification of the calibration report or certificate (e.g., the serial number), and on each page an identification in order to ensure that the page is recognized as a part of the calibration report or certificate, and a clear identification of the end of the calibration report or certificate. d. Name and address of customer. NOTE: A requirement for the name and address of customer may be waived with customer coordination/concurrence. e. Identification of the method used. NOTE: The calibration report or certificate may identify the method used in a manner similar to the following *examples: a calibration procedure number; an ASTM, IEC, or other standard specification; or a narrative description of the method used (i.e. compared with laboratory standard X at 10 points between 10% and 100% of full scale). f. A description of, the condition of, and unambiguous identification of the item(s) calibrated. g. Date of receipt of the calibration item(s) where this is critical to the validity and application of the results, and the date(s) of performance of the calibration. h. Reference to the sampling plan and procedures used by the laboratory or other bodies where these are relevant to the validity or application of the results. NOTE: The calibration report or certificate might not reference a sampling plan as sampling plans rarely apply to calibration; sampling plans normally are used in testing laboratories. i. The calibration results with, where appropriate, the units of measurement. NOTE: Units of measurement would be appropriate if needed by the User (calibration factors, correction factors, etc) to operate the TMDE. j. The name(s), function(s) and signature(s) or equivalent identification of person(s) authorizing the calibration report or certificate. k. Where relevant, a statement to the effect that the results relate only to the items calibrated. l. The conditions (e.g., environmental) under which the calibrations were made that have an influence on the measurement results. m. The uncertainty of measurement or a statement of compliance with an identified metrological specification or clauses thereof. NOTE: A calibration report or certificate that contains a statement of compliance to original manufacturer's specifications (with any exceptions or limitations noted) may satisfy this requirement. n. Evidence that the measurements are traceable (to NIST). 2.3 Manufacture shall provide sufficient shipping materials to protect the item from damage during shipment to customer.
