Section C – Performance Work Statement

Performance Work Statement (PWS) For U.S. Marine Corps Training & Education Command (TECOM) Range and Training Area Management Branch (RTAM) Military Operations Data Support

C.1. BACKGROUND

The updating and sustainment of Military Operations (MILOPS) Geographic Information System (GIS) feature dataset and the twenty-nine (29) feature classes, contained within, are operationally important to the safe and efficient utilization of United State Marine Corps (USMC) Ranges. MILOPS GIS data is paramount to the maintenance and sustainment of the Range and Training Area (RTA), as well as safely de-conflicting space and time for live fire operations. These GIS data elements, also provide the backbone of the warfighters most basic warfighting map, the Topographic Line Map (TLM).

The TLM is the standard baseline cartographic map used for Military Installation Maps (MIM) and its purpose built variants the Military Installation Map Installation Commander’s Special (MIMICS) which are both extremely portable and consumable in Department of Defense (DoD) tactical systems. This action will produce professional MIM and MIMICS products for use aboard USMC installations.

The Range Managers Tool Kit (RMTK) suite of tools provide the Range Control Officer (RCO) a three dimensional (3D) area of interpretation for the firing weapons and quantify the associated risk to life and property in conformance to official Marine Corps policy.

Each CAC is issued with a “ctr@usmc.mil” e-mail account that the individual Contractor employee is responsible to keep active by logging in on a regular basis (at least twice a month), sending an e-mail and clearing any unneeded e-mails. Contractors and Contractor employees are prohibited from “auto-forwarding” their .mil e-mail account to their .com e-mail account. If the “ctr@usmc.mil” e-mail account is not kept active, G-6 will deactivate the account and CAC will lose its functionality. Contractor employees shall solely use their government furnished “ctr@usmc.mil” e-mail accounts for work supporting the USMC, conducted in fulfillment of this contract, and shall not use a Contractor supplied or personal e-mail account to conduct government business. The use of a Contractor or personal e-mail account for Contractor business or personal use is allowed, but only when using cellular or a commercial internet service provider.
