Vision Statement To be the premier Instructor/Operator (I/O) support service provider for Capability Program Executive for Simulation, Training, Test and Threat (CPE ST3) Medical Training Aids, Devices, Simulators, and Simulations (TADSS).

1.0 Introduction

This Performance Work Statement (PWS) establishes the general performance requirements necessary to execute tasks within the Medical Simulation Training Center (MSTC) Instructor Operator Support Services (MIOSS) contract. The CPE ST3 has a requirement to provide Instructors / Operators (I/Os) for Medical TADSS worldwide. The efforts described in this PWS are required to support teacher-led medical based training and situational scenario-based training, and provide services related to medical TADSS instruction and operation. The MIOSS contract will support MSTC TADSS during the contract period of performance.

1.1 Mission

To provide I/O support services in the MSTCs which strengthen the Warfighters’ skills required to successfully perform mission requirements. Deliver effective teacher led medical training with a standardized training platform for both classroom and simulated battlefield conditions. The MSTC program supports training for medical and non-medical personnel including Active Duty, Reserve, and National Guard, with priority given to deploying units. The MSTC’s goal is to better prepare Soldiers for the application of medical interventions under combat conditions.

1.2 Background

The MSTCs are standardized Army training assets located at various military installations worldwide, delivering effective medical training with a standardized training platform. The MSTC provides medical training and education on new battlefield procedures and equipment, while affording military members the ability to provide comprehensive training in several formats such as the classroom setting, practical hands-on training, trauma lanes, and distance learning. Each MSTC configuration consists of a Medical Training Command and Control Center (MT-C2) which integrates and controls the Instructor Support System (ISS), and Virtual Patient System (VPS) that contains all the MSTC training devices and critical technologies.

Training devices include bleed/breathe patient simulators, dead-weighted simulators, airway management simulators, partial task trainers and moulage kits that replicate single patient polytrauma injuries. In addition to program of record (PoR) training aids, cadavers may also be utilized for training. Training Soldiers, leaders and units is the vital ingredient that ensures the readiness of the force to accomplish this mission. To be effective, training must provide Combat Medics with opportunities to practice their skills in a realistic operational environment.

Conditions are tough and realistic as well as physically and mentally challenging. The MSTC uses scenarios and situational training exercises to train and evaluate Soldiers, Combat Lifesavers and Combat Medics in medical, trauma and evacuation skills. The use of Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC or TC3) in tactics, techniques and procedures is required to reinforce care under fire and tactical field care.

1.3 Scope

The primary requirement described in this PWS is for the contractor to provide continuous, uninterrupted I/O support for the MSTCs as well as support for other miscellaneous courses and training events located at Army MSTCs throughout the CONUS and OCONUS. The Government is purchasing a single-award Firm-Fixed-Price contract operational capability. To successfully deliver this capability, the Contractor must meet or exceed the Government’s defined minimum technical specifications for staffing presence, qualifications, and shift coverage. The requirements described in this PWS are primarily to facilitate Combat Medics enhancing their skills and honing their tactics, techniques and procedures, Military Occupation Specialties (MOS) proficiency and skills to complete their wartime mission.

MSTCs’ primary training focus is on Combat Medic (68W Military Occupational Specialty (MOS)) sustainment training and non-Combat Medic training, Tiers I and II. This training includes Medical Education and Demonstration of Individual Competence (MEDIC) (TC8-800 Tables) and Combat Life Saver (CLS) and all other applicable medical tiered medical training per DoDI 1322.24 or as designated by the Medical Center of Excellence (MEDCoE).

MSTC locations are funded for training of US Army personnel (e.g., Active Army, Army Reserve/National Guard (ARNG), United States Army Reserve (USAR), and Department of Army Civilians (DAC's).

2.0 Applicable Documents

Note: The Government reserves the right to change performance locations or adjust the Minimum required personnel over the life cycle of the contract. Any Government-directed changes to the MMSB or locations that impact the Contractor's cost of performance will be executed via a bilateral, equitable adjustment modification in accordance with the Changes clause. To ensure continuous cost reasonableness and establish a defined pricing methodology for scope changes, any equitable adjustment—whether an additive cost for increased scope or a deductive credit for reduced scope—shall be calculated strictly utilizing the fixed, fully burdened labor rates and ceiling prices established in the Contract Pricing Schedule

3.0.5 The Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer (KO) and Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) in writing of any personnel departure that causes staffing levels to drop below the Mandatory Minimum Staffing Baseline.

3.0.6 In accordance with FAR 52.246-4, Inspection of Services—Fixed-Price, if the Contractor fails to fill the vacancy with a qualified replacement the Government shall reduce the fixed monthly invoice price to reflect the reduced value of the services. This reduction is not a penalty, but a commensurate reduction for services not received.

The Contractor must maintain the Mandatory Minimum Staffing Baseline (MMSB) at all times. In the event of a staffing shortfall (including Short-Term Absences or Permanent Vacancies), the Government will assess financial deductions in accordance with the terms, conditions, and grace periods explicitly defined in Section H.1.1 and H.1.4.

3.0.7 Validation of Replacements

The Government reserves the right to review the qualifications (e.g., resumes, certifications, and required credentials) of replacement personnel if concerns arise regarding their ability to meet PWS labor category requirements. Should the Government determine that a replacement does not meet the minimum qualifications specified in the PWS, the individual will not be accepted as meeting the baseline requirement. In such cases, the position will then be classified as “Vacant,” and applicable deductions will continue until a fully qualified candidate begins performance.

3.0.7 Deliveries

The Contractor shall submit a Monthly Staffing Report (MSR) detailing the status of all positions required to meet the Mandatory Minimum Staffing Baseline. The MSR must be attached to the monthly WAWF invoice.
