The manufacturer certified technician in Yokosuka will also function as the Site Lead for this effort. Technicians will be responsible for initial troubleshooting support, emergency response, on-site training (hands-on support instruction to government O&M providers), peripheral equipment support, and project/engineering support as required. The technician will be on site Monday through Friday between 0800 - 1645 Japan Standard Time and will receive day to day direction from the Site Lead or the Contracting Officer’s Representative at the respective location. The contractor shall ensure that remote engineers are available to help diagnosis and solve any switch issues that the onsite tech requires assistance

Extended travel beyond 7 days is not anticipated as OSTA technicians should be able to mitigate outages in a timely manner. All contractor personnel required by the contract to provide OSTA overseas shall possess all required passports and visas and shall have obtained all required immunizations prior to such employment. In addition, the contractor shall obtain for those personnel departing from CONUS all necessary clearances and identification.
