TITLE OF CONTRACT

Storage, Maintenance, Repair, Operation, Mobilization, Training and 3D Response Services Depopulation, disposal, and decontamination)

BACKGROUND

The U.S. National Veterinary Stockpile (NVS) is the nation's repository of critical veterinary supplies, equipment, and service resources. It exists because of the nation’s concern after 9/11 that terrorists could release animal diseases of catastrophic proportions that would

• deplete State and local response inventories,

• generate surge requirements that would overwhelm commercial sources, and

• prevent unaffected States from providing significant help for fear of the threat crossing their borders

The NVS’ ability to deploy within 24 hours large amounts of critical veterinary resources ensures States have what they need to respond to catastrophes and other outbreaks.

The NVS deploys products like animal vaccine, antivirals, equipment, or therapeutic products to appropriately respond to damaging animal diseases affecting human health and the economy that are likely to be unavailable in sufficient quantities for large outbreaks. States, industries (as part of the incident command system), and NVS commercial partners will use the products and related equipment to respond to large-scale outbreaks. The NVS utilizes its commercial partners to store its inventory in multiple locations and in sufficient volume to ensure its ability to respond to multiple, large-scale, simultaneous animal disease outbreaks.

Depopulation, Disposal, and Decontamination (3D) commercial partners will use the equipment to respond to large-scale outbreaks. Irrespective of who uses the equipment, the NVS must have methods to adequately store and maintain equipment between deployments and to ensure equipment is repaired or recondition after deployments to ensure it is ready for the next deployment.

TYPE OF CONTRACT

A Firm Fixed Price (FFP) contract will be used for the store, stage, maintenance, repair, shipment and/or transport of government owned equipment for mobilization and/or training of 3D contractors with or without equipment for 3D activities or to rapid respond to animal disease incidents.

CONTRACT OBJECTIVES

The NVS seeks a contract to 1) Strategically store, stage, maintain, operate repair, ship, deploy and/or transport its equipment to rapidly respond to animal disease incidents.

The contractor shall not use any materials, chemicals, or compounds which the COTR determines would be unsuitable for the intended purpose or harmful to the surfaces to which applied.

The contractor must procure and store common repair parts to fix minor repairs, The NVS will provide the contractor a list of common repair parts. The NVS will provide the contractor guidance on parts and reimbursement procedures for repair parts.

Contractor must maintain operational readiness which requires the contractor to preform inspections, conduct maintenance and in the case of the foam units produce foam throughout the year.

Operational and Performance Standards:

The NVS has established the following operational and performance standards to insure the ability to respond to a damaging animal disease incident is maintained. Contractors must be able to maintain the operational and performance as stated below:

• The NVS maintains a 98% operational readiness rate (ORR) for a 30 day period for all its stockpiled equipment.

• To meet this 98% ORR metric one unit cannot be in non-mission capable maintenance (NMCM) status (service) for more than 7 business days.

• The NVS must be notified of any issues discovered during inspection within 24 hours so a repair plan can be established.

• Parts identified during inspection/maintenance should be ordered and received no later than 72 hours after repair plan establishment.

• Once the parts are received the unit should be scheduled for maintenance and repaired no later than 24 hours to bring the equipment back to a Fully Mission Capable (FMC) status, Site Visits

The NVS is required to conduct at a minimum one site visit to each contractor’s location during the year. The NVS will plan the site visits in conjunction with the maintenance plan provided by the contractor. The NVS will schedule the site visit one month prior to the scheduled quarterly maintenance schedule provided by the contractor. The NVS will provide the contractor a copy of the NVS 3D SOP which outlines the details of the inventory and maintenance documentation to be completed during this site visit. During the site visit, preventative maintenance, recurring maintenance, producing foam, staging equipment for transport, and the redistribution, relocation and reconfiguration of NVS equipment may be observed.

Training The NVS provides a comprehensive training program designed to train our commercial partners.

The training provides contractors the opportunity to experience class room and hands on training in the preparation, deployment, and operation of foam depopulation equipment that could be provided by the NVS in response to damaging animal disease outbreaks affecting human health and the economy. The training ensures the NVS is capable of deploying within 24 hours, highly proficient foam equipment operators, as well as properly maintained foam equipment in the event of a damaging animal disease outbreak or natural disaster. The training event will consist of a mixture of seminar, discussion and hands-on technology demonstrations. This training helps the NVS program and participating stakeholders and partners refine their skills, knowledge, and procedures before they have to use them in an actual event. NVS staff will be present and will oversee the training.

Upon contract award contractors must be able to provide the number of personnel requested by the NVS to participate and attend in all training events. The NVS usually conducts 3 to 4 training events per year. The contractor must ensure that all trained personnel would be able to respond to animal event if requested.

3D Response Service and Staging of NVS Equipment

The NVS uses Partnerships with all-hazards response companies that can arrive quickly and provide large numbers of trained personnel with equipment to help when a State does not have enough of its own personnel. Contractor must be able to rapidly respond to animal disease incidents within 24 hours of notification with or without NVS Equipment. Contractor must be fitted with all equipment required to respond to a response. This equipment includes respirators, goggles, coveralls, work gloves, work boots and hard hats. All levels of PPE to include gloves and boot covers.

Staging Equipment for Transport

Staging of equipment will depend on the support requested by a state and decisions made by the NVS based on the type of support i.e. 3D contractors support, without or without equipment or equipment or Equipment support only.

The NVS will determine the most economical way for the equipment to be shipped. If the contractor has the ability to pull the NVS wedge trailer the contractor may be asked to provide a cost estimate for completing this action. If accepted the contractor will be tasked to complete the loading and proceed to the response location using their equipment.

If the contractor does not have the capability to tow the NVS wedge trailer the NVS may elect to use the wedge trailer and have a commercial carrier tow the unit. In this case the 3D contractor would be required to prepare the equipment for loading and complete loading upon the arrival of the towing road tractor.

The NVS may also decide to use commercial flatbeds to move the equipment. If this is the decision that is made the 3D contractor will be required to position the equipment for loading and provide forklift loading support once the trailer arrives on location.

OSHA REGULATIONS

Contractors shall know, understand, and comply with the OSH Act of 1970 and implementing regulations (29 CFR 1910 and 1926) as it pertains to their work activities. The OSH Act is administered by the U.S. Department of Labor in conjunction with the federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) or OSHA-approved state programs. Contractors must also comply with OSHA regulations and the General Duty Clause, which state that each employer “shall furnish to each of their employees employment and a place of employment which are free from recognized hazards that are causing or are likely to cause death or serious physical harm to his employees.” Furthermore, the contractor must comply with OSHA recordkeeping requirements (29 CFR 1904) using OSHA logs 300, 301, and 300A, Logs of Occupational Injuries and Illnesses. The contractor must report all work-related fatalities to OSHA within 8 hours. The contractor must all report all accidents in which one or more people experience inpatient hospitalizations, amputations or losses of an eye, to OSHA only if they occur 24 hours of the work-related incident (29 CFR 1904.39).

HEALTH MONITORING

Contractors shall track all employees working on APHIS job sites. Potentially exposed employees shall be monitored for the development of illness consistent with influenza, [e.g., respiratory symptoms and/or conjunctivitis (i.e., eye infections)] after their first exposure and for 10 days following demobilization.

Prior to beginning response activities, the Contractor’s Safety Officer shall establish contact with local (e.g., county) and state public health departments for the jurisdiction where response activities will occur.

During response activities, the contractor shall update the APHIS Safety Officer and State and local public health departments with any change in the location of the contractor response and changes in the number of contractor employees mobilized in the state. The Contractor’s Safety Officer shall notify the APHIS Safety Officer and the State and local public health departments if monitored employees become ill with influenza like illness during deployment. Ill employees shall seek prompt medical care under the direction of State and local public health departments, who will give notification prior to arrival at the health care provider’s office or clinic that the ill employee may have been exposed to an HPAI virus.

To ensure adequate monitoring of influenza like illness following demobilization, demobilization information for each contractor responder will be shared with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in the same format used by APHIS. State and local public health department personnel will oversee the responder monitoring in the ten days following demobilization. State and local public health departments will use contact information provided by the contractor solely to monitor for influenza like illness in exposed employees. CDC has indicated that the State and local public health departments will keep this information confidential and that they will not maintain the information beyond the 10 day monitoring period.

SAFETY PROGRAM IMPLEMENTATION

Contractors shall establish and maintain a safety program for their employees. This program will include maintaining and auditing safety performance for compliance with applicable federal, state and local regulations, and established safety and environmental requirements, including but not limited to the contractor’s safety and hazard communication programs.
