SCOPE OF WORK

The U.S. Forest Service seeks support services for all its international travelers on assignment outside the United States.

Those to be supported include short-term TDY travelers and a limited number of long-term assignees who are employees or affiliates carrying out the mission of the U.S. Forest Service on international assignments around the world. In addition to comprehensive medical and security emergency assistance, including medical and political evacuation services to supplement what may be provided by the U.S. Department of State or other US Government agencies, services should include consolidated and up-to-the-minute information resources and alerts available prior to and during a trip to support and promote sound choices leading to the greatest levels of health and safety for Agency travelers and assignees while traveling internationally.

BACKGROUND – The U.S. Forest Service (USFS), through all divisions, sends Temporary Duty (TDY) travelers and assignees on special assignment to all regions of the world. After a lengthy review of what services may or may not be required by or provided to these travelers under Department of State TDY policies, the requirements of USG travelers under Department of State and USDA TDY international travel policies, and after reviewing recent incidents, it has been determined that acquiring outside expertise and comprehensive information, medical and security assistance support services to supplement those services provided by partner agencies is necessary to ensure the Agency is providing the best possible information and on-the-ground support for its personnel and affiliates on assignment outside the United

States.

SCOPE – The objective of this acquisition is to obtain superior, comprehensive and integrated information, medical and security services that are provided to all Agency affiliated travelers and assignees, at any time, for any international trip.

We seek services that require very little maintenance on behalf of USFS staff, and which are managed such that there are few administrative barriers related to enrollment, verification of eligibility for services, and action initiated and followed through on emergency mitigation, response and resolution.

TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS –

The USFS has a need for comprehensive medical and security support, information, and evacuation services for approximately 1000 international trips each year made by USFS TDY travelers and for approximately 30 assignees stationed abroad on long-term assignments that may or may not be accompanied by dependents.

Customized web pages and links that allow for the consolidation of information and increased efficiency.

Customized pages and links with information specific to USFS procedures shall be readily available alongside the information provided by the vendor on their services webpage. Email alert notification systems to serve travelers, personnel in International Programs and supervisors of TDY travelers.
