Part 1

General Information

1. GENERAL: This is a non-personnel services contract to provide specialized role player, subject matter expert support to the 3rd Security Force Assistance Brigade (SFAB) during the conduct of a Validation

Exercise (VALEX). The Government will not exercise any supervision or control over the contract service providers performing the services herein. Such contract service providers shall be accountable solely to the

Contractor who, in turn is responsible to the Government.

1.1 Description of Services. The contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, supplies, transportation, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and non-personal services necessary to perform specialized role player, subject matter expert support as defined in this Performance Work Statement (PWS). The contractor shall perform to the standards in this contract.

1.2 Background. A requirement exists within the Security Force Assistance Brigades (SFABs) to provide unit level pre-deployment validation exercise (VALEX) training prior to combatant command utilization.

The 3rd SFAB shall conduct a VALEX iteration during the period 16-27 September 21 to prepare its advisor teams for deployment to the Central Command (CENTCOM) area of operations (AO). Because of the specificity of the deployment site, this iteration shall simulate the attributes of the CENTCOM AO as closely as possible. The objective of this VALEX iteration is focused on executing individual and collective tasks, supporting tasks, and advanced skills while immersed in a simulated CENTCOM AO to provide the combatant command with fully qualified units.

One of the skillsets currently not fully tested until arrival in theater is the ability to effectively engage with

U.S. embassy personnel to include General Officers, Senior Defense Officials/Defense Attaches

(SDO/DATT), and Regional Security Officers (RSO) as well as senior echelon Foreign Security Force

(FSF) personnel. To bridge this mission-critical gap and bring the required and qualified instruction to 3rd

SFAB Advisors immediately, this specialty must be contracted. There is insufficient time in the 3rd SFAB training cycle for a trial-and-error learning period. The contracted company must arrive at the training location fully prepared to provide up-to-date tactics, techniques, and procedures, with the full confidence of the 3rd SFAB Exercise Control Group (ECG) on the first day of training.

1.3.2. Rehearse geographic disparity between teams and command elements

1.3.3. Simulate, incorporate, synchronize, and exercise supporting role players and equipment during all appropriate phases of operations to effectively replicate the typical mission profile currently being executed overseas in the CENTCOM AO by 3rd SFAB. Simulate the environments encountered by 3rd SFAB personnel during operations in the CENTCOM AO

1.4 Scope. The contractor shall provide 3rd SFAB with an Academic Professional, Interagency Instructors, Prolonged Field Care Instructor, a Foreign Security Force role-player support package, and Department of

State role-player support package.to provide critical Subject Matter Expert (SME) training support.
