Corrosion Prevention Advocate; CPA

Who We Are:

Headquartered in Washington, DC, Versar Global Solutions provides full mission lifecycle solutions for challenges faced by our government and commercial customers in the natural, built, and digital environments. With nearly 2,000 team members around the world, and a rich legacy spanning more than 70 years, Versar Global Solutions delivers a broad array of planning, analysis and risk management solutions, project and program management, operations and maintenance services, and information technology applications for environmental management and remediation projects, mission critical facilities and installations, and in support of readiness and contingency operations.

The CPA shall support the Corrosion Program Office and aviation corrosion efforts through policy, process control, technology insertion, training, and aircraft corrosion mapping. This position shall support aviation engineering analyses by providing technical information on aircraft systems and components.

* This position is contingent upon award.

Submit air station LCI reports, aircraft corrosion mapping reports, aircraft corrosion hot spot reports, aircraft corrosion mitigation reports, reports on the monitoring of the organic coating process, and the annual aircraft corrosion report.

• Complete the following by the mutually agreed timeline:
• Fabricate test components and fixtures.
• Provide technical information to support aircraft engineering analysis.
• Provide corrosion program support and attend meetings designated by the CPM.
• Provide support to promulgate the ASB’s strategic corrosion goals. The support shall require research, development, and improvements to corrosion control processes and policies.
• Participate in LCIs as the Corrosion Representative at air station units IA W CGTO PG 85-00-300. LCIs typically last five (5) days.
• Manage corrosion mapping program for Government airframes. Perform quality assurance of the data submitted on MPC cards. Within twenty-one (21) calendar days of receipt of corrosion mapping documentation from the Government, approve and release the aircraft Corrosion Mapping ALMIS report. Within twenty-one (21) calendar days of receipt of corrosion mapping documentation from the Government, provide a corrosion mapping report for that aircraft to the CPM.
  
  The corrosion mapping report shall include environmental data that affected the corrosion on the aircraft, the locations of the top ten corrosion occurrences ("hot spots") of corrosion, the top ten locations that required the most man hours to repair, corrosion mapping images from select "hot spots", relevant photographic images of the aircraft taken by the Contractor as the aircraft is processed through the PDM cycle, and if appropriate, amplifying information about the aircraft corrosion.
• Provide a corrosion mitigation report for corrosion "hot spots" identified by the CPM.
• The report shall identify the type(s) of corrosion, an analysis of the corrosion, the root cause(s) of the corrosion, and recommendations for corrosion mitigation. The recommendations shall include a method to measure the performance of the corrosion mitigation.
• Provide classroom and hands‑on corrosion training. Develop curriculums and course materials for the training. Acquire necessary material (such as non‑ready for issue or scrap components) for the training. All material used for training shall be approved by the CPM before use.
• Monitor, analyze, and compile reports with recommendations for corrosion prevention methods, corrosion testing procedures, corrosion technology insertion, storage preservation, and addressing specific or fleet aircraft corrosion issues. Communicate with ALC divisions, Air stations, DOD, and industry on technical issues related to corrosion prevention methods and technology.
• Monitor the organic coatings process. The organic coating process consists of depainting surface preparation, and the application of the coating system. Perform coating thickness tests, gloss tests, and color tests.
• Perform coatings tests. Monitor DOD and industry coating specifications and attend training as directed by the government.
• Ascertain that the…
