1. (U) Introduction

(U) This Statement of Work (SOW) describes the non-personal services required to support the mission of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA), Security and Installation Directorate’s (SI) Counter Insider Threat Office (SII) Behavioral Science Team (BST).

1.1. (U) Background

(U) NGA has charged SII with detecting, deterring, and mitigating threats to NGA personnel, technology, information, and systems by analyzing combined data sources to identify anomalous events and threats posed by trusted insiders. SII supports the NGA Security and Installations Directorate (SI) in fulfilling its mission to make geospatial intelligence (GEOINT) happen by providing premier protections, security, and facilities.

(U) This contract will be supporting the Behavioral Science Team (BST). The BST’s mission is to facilitate a safe, secure, and productive work environment by deterring, detecting and mitigating potential threats to NGA personnel, facilities, data, and systems through the expert application of psychological science. BST executes this mission through four activities: Consultation, Training and Education, Research and Development, and Liaison.

2. (U) Scope

(U) The Contractor shall provide technical support services, personnel and supervision to support SII’s BST tasks and responsibilities as defined by this SOW.

2.1 (U) Description of Work

· (U) Consultation – Integrate established and emerging psychological principles and best practices into current and future efforts to deter, detect and mitigate potential threats to the agency by providing expert national security psychology consultation to relevant internal and external stakeholders and mission partners. Examples include, but are not limited to:

· (U//FOUO) Case Consultation: Provide case consultation for a variety of stakeholders and mission partners [e.g., Office of Counterintelligence (SIC), Personnel Security Division (SISP), other SII divisions, and Threat Management Unit (TMU)]. Case consultation offers the application of national security psychology expertise to case-specific consultation questions, often identifying intelligence gaps and effective strategies for gathering essential information (e.g., interview techniques). When appropriate, utilize direct assessment or indirect assessment methods in support of case consultation.

· (U) Direct Assessments. Conducts direct psychological assessments on behalf of the agency, in support of agency initiatives, and IAW the SII mission. Direct assessments often are a component of consultation to SISP adjudication and assessment of applicant and incumbent police officers for the Office of Protective Services (SIP), but may conduct direct assessments for other purposes (e.g., psychological assessment and selection). The agency is the primary client of BST assessments.

· (U//FOUO) Indirect Assessments. Conduct indirect assessments on behalf of the agency, in support of agency initiatives, and IAW the SII mission. The agency is BST’s primary client benefitting from the assessment, and the focus typically involves managing risk to agency personnel and mission.

· (U) Organizational and Management Consultation: Provide consultation to leaders and teams regarding management, leadership, personnel, and systemic organizational matters. Examples include, but are not limited to identification of and response to concerning behaviors, problem solving, team dynamics, motivation, performance enhancement, operational resiliency, workforce trends and post-incident reviews.

· (U) Individual Consultation: Provide individual behavioral science consultation to advance the SII and NGA missions. Individual consultation does not establish a doctor-patient relationship and is not healthcare.

· (U) Training & Education (T&E) – Educate relevant stakeholders in the theoretical and empirical bases of behavioral science and national security psychology related to the deterrence, detection and mitigation of potential threats by providing expert training briefs, presentations and educational courses. Examples include, but are not limited to:

· Elicitation awareness and defensive strategies

· Incorporating behavioral science into counter insider threat programs

· Capabilities briefings

· Operational resiliency and retention in high-stress, high-OPTEMPO assignments.

· (U) Research & Development (R&D) – Innovate and advance the science of counter insider threat and national security psychology by improving existing methods and developing new methods to deter, detect and mitigate potential threats through behavioral science R&D and the application of scientific rigor to current methods and process improvements. Common R&D activities and work products include, but are not limited to:

· Policy review

· Survey research

· White papers

· Validation studies

· Executive summaries

· Project briefings

· Literature reviews

· Academic inquiries

· (U) Liaison – Communicate innovations, findings, lessons learned and best practices throughout the DoD, IC, and broader community, as appropriate, to aid others in the deterrence detection and mitigation of potential threats.

· (U) Build and maintain strong collaborative relationships with other national security psychologists and associated professionals within the counter insider threat, military, forensic, law enforcement, security and counterintelligence communities

· (U) Collaborate on developing innovative solutions to real-time national security problems.

· (U) Routine Administrative Functions – Perform routine administrative functions that meet program and performance objectives within the thresholds identified in this SOW. Routine administrative functions are sub-tasks required to ensure mission success while performing the required tasks. Examples of routine administrative functions (the list is not all-inclusive) are below:

· Providing input to a case management system or database, developing metrics, and program evaluation activities are routine administrative tasks.

· Timely completion of documentation in a manner consistent with professional standards

· (U) Maintain Licensure – Maintain a full, current and unrestricted license to practice clinical psychology in the United States (including United States Territories)

2.2. (U) Contractor Support

(U) Contractors shall support the Government in developing work products:

· (U) Quality and performance metrics for all activities, including hours of effort toward each activity

· (U) Workload tracking through the SII case management system

· (U) Verbal consultation to stakeholders and mission partners

· (U) Written consultation reports, including informal (e.g., e-mail) and formal (e.g., psychological evaluation) reports

· (U) T&E briefs, presentations and courses, including supporting materials (e.g., presentation slides/notes)

· (U) R&D activities and written products (e.g., modeling, policy review, survey research, white papers, validation studies, executive summaries, project briefings, literature reviews, and academic inquiries)

· (U) Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), instruction manuals, training materials, etc., that support process improvements or other advancements

· (U) Program/Project documentation historical and current, non-record and records.

· (U) Detailed trip reports for all trips, conferences, or similar off-site meetings.

(U) Access to CUI will be pursuant to DFARS clause 252.204.7012. The prime contractor shall include this clause, including paragraph (m), in subcontracts, or similar contractual instruments, for operationally critical support or for which subcontract performance will involve covered defense information, including subcontracts for commercial items, without alteration, except to identify the parties. The Contractor shall determine if the information required for Subcontractor performance retains its identity as covered defense information and will require protection under this clause. Contractor personnel shall not release any unclassified information, regardless of medium (e.g., film, tape, document), pertaining to any part of this contract or any program related to this contract, unless the COR has given prior written approval or in performance of a project that has been scoped and negotiated by NGA.

(U) NGA will assess and authorize Contractors to process classified information on government-owned information systems, conduct oversight of such information system processing, and provide information system security guidelines IAW with FAR clause 52.204-21 and other information system security control policies, standards, and procedures.
