Statement of Work

Firing Range Services – Detroit, MI

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has a requirement for a firearms range to conduct advanced firearms training. The agency’s training requirements are contingent upon a variety of factors (e.g. new hires, retirements, separations, revised training curriculum, etc.). If additional training hours are required above and beyond the contracted number of hours, they are within the scope of the contract. However, in no instance shall the contractor exceed the contracted number of hours without prior, written consent of the Contracting Officer. This written consent will take the form of a contract modification to add additional hours.

The range must comply with applicable, local, state and federal regulations, including but not limited to, lead exposure. The contractor shall submit its most recent certification of lead exposure testing and/or its most current OSHA compliance certificate/letter and air sample for lead.

If an award is granted and OSHA standards are not in accordance with regulation, the government has the unilateral right to terminate the contract at any time via a written signed modification.

The following OSHA programs are applicable:
