PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

Wireless Performance Work Statement

1.0 Overview

The Department of the Navy (DON) is seeking a multi-agency solution to satisfy the repetitive needs for the enterprise-wide commercial wireless mobility requirements of the DON, Department of Defense (DoD), and other federal agencies. This solution will provide Wireless Mobility Telecommunication services and devices to Military Members and Federal Civilian Agencies within the 50 United States. This procurement anticipates a multiple award contractual ordering solution to provide end users a best value solution for their current and future dynamic wireless mobility requirements. The awarded Multiple Award, Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity contract(s) will be for a base year plus nine (9) twelve-month option periods. This procurement is needed to ensure mission critical support to Military Members and Federal Civilians is sustained without interruption for wireless mobility services, including devices. Services under this procurement cover usage in the 50 United States, US territories, and while traveling internationally for Military Members and Federal Civilians stationed within the 50 States and US territories. Task Orders issued under this contract shall be tailored to the specific needs of each command or organization. This new procurement, Spiral 4, will replace the existing suite of IDIQ contracts; the DON Multiple Award Contracts, Spiral 3.

As a major user of Wireless Mobility Telecommunication services (to include related software, hardware, firmware and equipment), it is estimated that the Department of Defense (DoD) alone represents nearly 550,000 lines of service; using cell/feature phones, smartphones, tablets, data devices and other wireless devices and equipment. The overall objective of this procurement is to provide a contractual framework that allows Government-wide agencies, with numerous geographically dispersed end users, to operate as a single customer thereby achieving economies of scale for pricing, services and devices.

1.1 Background

For over fifteen years, the Department of the Navy (DON) has been effectively acquiring and managing wireless mobility services. The previous and current DON Wireless Services Contracts, Spirals 1, 2, and 3, have met sourcing strategy objectives that-- (1) offer only those wireless plans aligned with actual usage; (2) deliver competitively priced wireless service packages (inclusive of devices), (3) standardize rate plans among all wireless providers to maximize competition and obtain even lower pricing; (4) capitalize on changes in the marketplace; (5) incorporate improved industry standards and technological advances (technology leveling); (6) offer “free to use” Expense Management tools to monitor and manage wireless usage and provide near real-time visibility of Enterprise-wide and customer- specific usage; (7) provide visibility of wireless mobile device inventory; and (8) provide wireless data for analyses of trends to identify ordering improvements for efficiencies, performance plan optimization, and cost-savings opportunities. The DON Wireless Services Contracts have been the “gold standard” for supporting DON and DoD wireless mobility needs. The Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) determined the DON Wireless Services contracts were “best in breed” at providing a cost-effective, best-value solution for sustained mission critical wireless services for the military and enhanced communication capabilities for the Warfighter. OSD directed and mandated all of DoD to use the DON Wireless Spiral 3 contracts for wireless mobility services and devices. The DoD mandate will remain in effect for the follow-on solution, the DoD Wireless Services Contracts Spiral 4. Spiral 4 will capitalize on changes in the marketplace realized since award of the previous contract, by incorporating improvements in industry standards, advances in technology and more competitive pricing plans.

1.2 General Scope

The scope of this contract covers the Government’s DON, DoD and Government-Wide Agencies requirement for commercial wireless mobility and cellular telecommunications services [hereinafter, wireless telecommunications includes all wireless mobility technologies and related operations]. Contractor shall be responsible for providing services that conform with acceptable industry standards and the mission-essential functions outlined by the Government in individual Task Orders. In this performance based statement of work, the Contractor will be responsible for utilizing only up-to-date technology in delivering the services required, to include providing the most current repeaters, towers, Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) services and equipment.

In providing services throughout the life of the contract (a ten-year ordering period) in Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) services and equipment, the resulting contracts and contractors will keep current with ever-changing technology and services over the life of the contract. The Spiral 4 Wireless Contracts are not a “supply” contract and will not provide wireless, mobile, cellular, and other devices and equipment to customers without the procurement of associated wireless services under the contracts. This contract shall provide a flexible means of meeting and sustaining the Government’s need for fast, safe, secure, dependable, and stable telecommunications services to include the most up-to-date secure devices to communicate data, voice, text, graphics and pictures. At no additional cost, contractor will deliver the services via the most efficient, up-to-date infrastructure that can be adapted to military missions.

This contract cannot be used for civilians to purchase other than “official use” wireless services. To repeat, hardware devices and equipment can only be acquired in conjunction with services.

Funding for wireless mobility services will be obligated at the Task Order level, as the contracts themselves are not funded. Services shall not be provided under these Contracts unless an Ordering Officer or Authorized User have placed a Task Order.

2.0 Wireless Mobility Services Scope and Prices

The Request for Proposal is to be solicited using the procedures as identified in FAR 15 Contracting by Negotiation and FAR 16.505 Ordering. Each contract will consist of services organized by Exhibit Line Item Numbers (ELINs) to include service plans that are--

(1) Standard Wireless Mobility Services Only; (2) Standard Wireless Mobility Services with Devices, (3) Other Enhanced Wireless Mobility Services & Devices; (4) Paging Services and Devices.
