PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS)

9 February 2026 Army Training Models

Part 1 Introduction

1.1. Description of Services/Introduction: The Headquarters, Department of the Army (HQDA) Deputy Chief of Staff Operations, Directorate for Training G-3/7, is the functional proponent for Army Training and for strategic resourcing within the framework of the Planning, Programming, Budgeting, and Execution (PPBE) process. The G-3/7 has sponsored the development of a suite of software applications to answer these questions. In this capacity, the G- 3/7 Training Directorate provides oversight and management for the training resource applications developed and supported outside HQDA. The Directorate for Training G-3/7 is the functional proponent for Regionally Aligned Readiness and Modernization Model (ReARMM), Munitions and Collective Training. In this capacity, the G-3/7 Training Directorate provides oversight and management for the training resource applications developed and supported outside HQDA.

1.2. Background: These applications are collectively referred to as the Army Training

Models (ATM). The ATM contract supports critical training programs to include collective training, operational readiness, and institutional training. These models provide analytical support to develop funding requirements for Army-wide collective and individual training and are used to support resource decision making within the PPBE at HQDA and in subordinate commands. The ATM contract provides critical support needed to develop and defend training and operational readiness resource requirements and funding strategies for Army training programs consistent with Army Policies and Priorities in The Army Plan and to meet the timelines of the PPBE process.

The Department of Defense’s shift to strategic competition against near-peer threats requires the Army to adopt a supply-based unit readiness model. The new model must accomplish two requirements. It must provide dedicated periods to modernize and build enduring warfighting advantages in the Army of 2030. Additionally, the model must support integrated deterrence by providing a consistent supply of ready units with regional understanding and competence to meet global campaigning and directed readiness requirements. To meet the requirements of the strategic context, the Army developed a new force generation model. The Regionally Aligned Readiness and Modernization Model (ReARMM) is flexible and predictable. It also creates an Army that is regionally aligned to Combatant Commanders (CCDR) regions and modernized to support the National Defense Strategy (NDS).

1.3 Objectives: The Contractor shall provide subject matter experts with a focus and emphasis to providing experience and continuity with specific emphases on the planning, programming, budgeting, and execution of the programs that support and resource a wide range of requirements for the Army. Additionally, the Contractor shall provide subject matter experts with a focus and emphasis on providing long-term continuity with specific emphases on the planning, programming, budgeting, and execution of the programs that support and resource modernization.

1.3.1 The Contractor shall provide technical and programmatic support for the Training Directorate. Support includes but is not limited to programmatic and analytical support for the Operational Tempo (OPTEMPO), Collective Training, Institutional Training, Mission, Intelligence programs, technical assistance, and subject matter expertise directly supporting the Regionally Aligned Readiness and Modernization Model (ReARMM), and Collective Training in support of the Chief of Staff, Army (CSA), as well as Operational Analysis for the G3-5/7 Training Directorate.

1.4 Scope: The Contractor shall provide services for various activities required to ensure that the ability and means needed to support Army Training requirements are adequately defined, resourced and managed. This effort incorporates requirements from the Director of Training, Army G-3/5/7 for programmatic and analytical support.

1.5 Period of Performance: The period of performance shall be for one (1) Base period of 12 months, plus four (4) 12-month option periods.

Part 2

Total Army Integration

2.1 The ATM must meet the needs of stakeholders at all levels for HQDA to synchronize training and operational readiness resource management across the Army and ensure that the training management community applies a consistent training resource management methodology.

The ATM are used to provide input to internal applications by Forces Command (FORSCOM), Western Hemisphere Command (WHC), T2COM and US Army Special Operations Command (USASOC). The ATM also support and receive input from the Army Centers of Excellence (CoEs), Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Army for Cost & Economics (DASA-CE) and HQDA.

The Army National Guard and the Office of the Chief, Army Reserve, along with their subordinate commands, use the ATM for decision support analysis and to make recommendations across all phases of Planning, Programming, Budgeting, and Execution.

2.2. Due to the broad usage of the Army Training Models, the Contractor will frequently interact with these stakeholders, receive data and feedback from them, and (when approved) make improvements to the software applications to support them. Any proposed modifications to the ATM that emanate from stakeholder feedback must be coordinated with the Contracting Officer’s Representative in HQDA, Office of the Deputy Chief of Staff, G3/5/7, Training Directorate (DAMO-TR) prior to formal inclusion in the model. The Contractor shall ensure no development work duplicates or is incompatible with other ATM features.

Part 3

Objectives

3.1. The overarching objective of the ATM is to provide a common understanding of training resource requirements and funding across the Army by formalizing the HQDA standard methodology for training resource management. The ATM consist of an information management system along with three primary models and a collection of enabling sub-applications.

3.2. The Training Resource Model Information System (TRMIS) is the user interface by which stakeholders access information produced by the ATM, planning factors, ATM inputs, and training execution data used to validate the models. TRMIS facilitates information sharing between HQDA and T2COM and provides the ability to calculate per capita rates.

3.2.1. The Training Resource Model (cTRM) determines the resource requirements needed for operational units to perform their collective training and operations. Sub-applications of cTRM include, but are not limited to:

3.2.1.1 The Battalion Level Training Model (BLTM) which defines activities performed by individual unit types, organizations, or entities and

3.2.1.2. The Man-Day Model (cMRM) which defines training days required above the statutory 39 days a year for the reserve component.

3.2.2. The Aviation Training Resource Model (cATRM) determines the resource requirements needed for aviation units to perform their training and operations.

3.2.3. The Institutional Training Resource Model (cITRM) determines the resource requirements needed to send individual students to be trained at Army schools. Sub-applications of ITRM include, but are not limited to:

3.2.3.1. The Course Level Training Module (CLTM) which documents Program of

Instruction (POI) data,

3.2.4. Resource Prioritization Database (1-n) which functions as a resource module for the management of Operations and Maintenance, Army (OMA) and Reserve Personnel, Army (RPA) requirements.

3.2.5. Monthly Army Performance Review (MAPR) provides Official Army equipment air and ground activity execution.

3.3. Extension of these applications and methodologies to subordinate commands provides a consistent, credible methodology for calculating and presenting training resource requirements.

These utilities support cost factor processing, force structure processing, modernization plans, and other key input data sources.

Part 4

Operating Environment

4.1. The Army continually adapts to meet changing conditions. To remain relevant, the ATM must adapt to a complex and dynamic operating environment that this contract supports.

Sources of change may include, but are not limited to, changes to force structure (both operational and generating force), training strategies, authorized equipment, deployment strategies, and cost factors.

4.2. The software must be capable of supporting revision to training strategies such as the Regionally Aligned Readiness and Modernization Model (ReARMM) or any other emerging Army strategy. Changes to Army budget data elements such as Management Decision Execution Package (MDEP), Army Management Structure Code (AMSCO), Dollar Type, Object Classes, and training readiness definitions will require the ATM to adapt accordingly. This will require the contractor to adapt these software programs and models to changing Army data structures and environments

4.3. Reports will continue to evolve to meet changing needs for data to articulate training resource requirements to agencies outside the Department of the Army, within the Army Staff and to disseminate guidance to subordinate Army Commands. These revisions will cause the Army to reassess the outputs of the ATM to ensure they are responsive to Senior Leader needs.

4.4. the Contractor requires expertise in training resource requirements development, training, force management, logistics and financial policy and systems analysis as well as fluency in the development of appropriate software tools to facilitate data analysis and training resource management. These skills are necessary to anticipate, conceptualize, and implement changes to the ATM rapidly and effectively.

4.5 As a general statement, all contractor requested travel and hiring actions shall be coordinated with the COR.

5.1. This Performance Work Statement covers the full spectrum of software support and maintenance within the full suite of ATM, and establishes the baseline for any major software modifications, as well as full spectrum of analysis and support required to support HQDA G3 and DAMO-TR. The Contractor shall provide technical and programmatic support for the Training Directorate. Support includes but is not limited to program management, technical assistance, and subject matter expertise directly supporting the Regionally Aligned Readiness and Modernization Model (ReARMM), Munitions and Collective Training in support of the Chief of Staff, Army (CSA), as well as Operational Analysis for the G3-5/7 Training Directorate. The contractor shall furnish the necessary personnel, functional support, software, materials, facilities and other services as may be required to perform the work contained in this PWS.

5.2 BASIC TASKS.

Tasks performed on this contract generally fall within one of five categories. These categories are (1) Software maintenance, (2) Software development, (3) Training, (4) Custom Analysis (5) Staff Support.

5.2.1. Software Maintenance:

The Contractor will maintain all software necessary to accomplish the objectives of this contract.

Software maintenance includes routine enhancements to existing applications. As technology advances, the contractor will migrate the software applications as directed by the COR. The contractor is responsible for maintaining DoD/Army Risk Management Framework (RMF) and ensuring that all delivered application or modifications to software complies with RMF requirements; Also documenting all ATM models and utilities for end users.

5.2.2. Software Development

5.2.2.1. In addition to existing applications, other applications are emerging to capture information, introduce new technologies, and to better disseminate and share sensitive OPTEMPO resource decisions. Though they perform many different functions, these ATM applications are structured to operate within a common technical architecture where software code is a shared resource among multiple applications.

5.2.2.2. Shared code is efficient by design; the successful Contractor must ensure that this approach is also effective in meeting the needs of the diverse client community supported by this project.

5.2.2.3. A key feature of this requirement’s definition process is the establishment of a linkage between the force structure contained in the cTRM and the force being supported within the cITRM. This linkage is critical to ensuring that all training resource requirements are based upon common force structure decisions. Outputs of the cITRM include a projection of anticipated student workload based upon a given force structure and the costs associated with the courses anticipated to be required to support that force.

5.2.3. Development Objectives: Consistent with available time and resources, the COR will prioritize development projects which may include the following:

• Continue any work associated with migration to the cloud. (as required by the government)

• Linking ATM reports to Program Optimization and Budget Evaluation (cPROBE) to load change packages directly from TRMIS.

• Automating the reconciliation process

• Developing a user interface to resolve “Z-lines” collaboratively between HQDA and other stakeholders

• Developing a user interface to conduct cut drills and excursions (either funding based, or end strength based)

• Developing and updating as appropriate an application that tracks OPTEMPO and other training or operational readiness resources.

• Developing a user interface which allows the comparison of two non-sequential

ATM positions.

• Developing a capability to produce POM and budget reports, and produce historical program reports across 15 or more years for Army Senior Leaders (ASL), HQDA, and Army Materiel Command (AMC), Assistant Secretary of the Army (Acquisition, Logistics, & Technology (ASA (ALT)), and others

• Developing a user interface which allows users at all levels to drill down into the drivers and factors underpinning specific data. Be able to quantify the impact of updating these drivers and factors on training or operational readiness resources.

• Developing a capability to project Training Equipment Maintenance resource requirements for use in Budget Formulation and Execution.

• Developing user and software interface to train Training and Doctrine development products.

5.2.4. Training. Training includes providing materials for understanding the ATM and providing live instruction on the ATM. The Contractor shall publish a data dictionary which defines all fields used in the ATM. The data dictionary will include a list of all valid data elements for each field along with their meaning. The Contractor shall provide ATM information briefings to stakeholder staff as deemed necessary by the COR. The Contractor shall provide information briefings and assistance visits to stakeholder locations (determined by the COR) which experience ATM reporting problems or require ATM training.

5.2.5. Custom Analysis. The Contractor will provide direct on-site, analytical support to the DAMO-TR. This analytical support satisfies analytical requirements which cannot be accomplished by users using TRMIS. Custom analysis which is performed routinely will be reported to the COR so that it can be used to inform software development priorities. Database maintenance requires the contractor to understand the Army data inputs and to conform the inputs from all required systems that support the ATM. This includes data structure changes, converting data to input into ATM, and data outputs to supported systems.

5.2.6 Staff Support. The contractor shall provide staff support to select Army training commands, institutions, and centers as requested by the Commands. The contractor must have a minimum of five years military staff experience, a thorough understanding and working knowledge of training, force management, logistics and financial policies and systems within the framework of PPBE.

The scope of this task varies with the mission and is intended to represent a type of skill set needed to meet all current and anticipated requirements. This staff support is intended to capture those requirements where dedicated support is needed to satisfy mission objectives. Actions performed are similar to HQDA staff support tasks and include analysis of all inputs to the models and decision processes as well as effective use of the outputs of the models to develop training resource guidance and issues up and down the chain of command.

5.3. Specified Tasks

5.3.1. The three specified tasks are Populate, Update Per Capita Rates, and Reconcile data.

The Contractor shall populate the ATM with financial (requirements and funding), force structure (manning and equipment), training strategies, cost factors, command requirements, workload and student data and conduct focused, functional and technical analyses in support of Program Development and Budget Formulation and Execution.

5.3.2. Working through the COR, the Contractor will annually execute a data call to update to all Per Capita cost factors. Once collected, the Contractor will review the data for completeness and validity and present to the COR for validation. The Contractor will assist government Subject Matter Expert (SMEs) as they research and explain any significant variations from the previous year’s data. Once the data is validated, the Contractor will compute the Per Capita rates which will then be delivered to the COR. Development of the Per Capita rates must consider financial (one-time and enduring obligations and Special Items of Interest (SIIs) and workload (population and student load) data. The Contractor shall report any shortfalls experienced during the data collection and validation process to the COR and suggest modifications to remedy these issues.

Additionally, this task addresses the interoperability of the training models with other systems and agencies and includes verification of external data compatibility with the training application processes.

5.3.3. The contractor shall facilitate reconciliation of program requirements and funded levels.
