1. BACKGROUND

Vandenberg Space Force Base (VSFB) current infrastructure is highly dependent on its’ end-of-life and end-of-support Synchronous Optical Network (SONET). A Ciena-based Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) Optical Transport Network (OTN) architecture is now operational and ready for the migration of circuits from SONET. The migration priorities, plan, and template configurations have been developed and tested. This performance work statement accomplishes the migration of 500 circuits.

2. OBJECTIVES

The contractor shall migrate 500 government-furnished SONET circuits to the DWDM network, providing all necessary engineering, planning, material required to facilitate the migration (fiber/copper cables, DSX Patch panels, etc.), and implementation services. Key objectives are to:

a. Develop and submit a migration design, solution, and integrated master schedule;

b. Provide the necessary fiber or copper cables and DSX patch panels required to move connections to DWDM;

c. Acquire a quantity of DWDM hardware that may be needed to accommodate this migration;

d. Execute the migration of circuits per the approved design, solution, and schedule;

e. Perform all testing and turn-up of circuits to the Government’s acceptance criteria;

and

f. Furnish required documentation and status reports.

3. REQUIREMENTS

The contractor shall perform the following tasks:

3.3 The Migration Survey and Design Solution

The Contractor shall perform migration surveys at each site where circuits will be migrated. As necessary, the Contractor shall provide a design and solution (including proposed installation activities) based on the results of the design survey required for this PWS.

Prior to any component requisition, the Contractor shall provide List of Material specifications to SLD 30/SC for review/approval.

A design solution for each site shall, at a minimum, include, but is not limited to, the List of Materials, and Rack Elevations showing the position of Part 2B added materials (i.e., patch panels). Design Solution acceptance yields the Final Design which shall be in place 15 days before installation begins.

The Integrated Master Schedule and Final Design deliverables require Government concurrence or acceptance. If that acceptance is not received via email within 10 days of submission, then acceptance is implied.

VSFB Launch and Test Range Systems (LTRS) changes must follow Engineering Change Proposal (ECP) and Installation Readiness Review (IRR) processes. The contractor shall assume responsibility for or otherwise support Government efforts involved in these processes, including creation of related artifacts.

3.4 Equipment

The Contractor shall obtain and install the equipment listed in the List of Materials, Section 15, at the end of this document.

3.5 Implementation/Migration

Perform the physical migration of circuits according to the approved Integrated Master Schedule and Final Design. For each circuit, this includes: disconnection from the SONET system, installation of any new fiber patch cables or connectors, re-terminating at the DWDM equipment, configuring the Ciena equipment, and verifying operation. All labor, tools, cables, consumables, test equipment, and transportation required for migration are contractor-furnished, except as noted in PWS Paragraph 6 (Government Furnished Property).

3.6 Testing and Acceptance

Following the migration of a circuit or circuits migration, the Contractor shall use Ciena’s Monitor Control Plan (MCP) network management to confirm that the circuit(s) are operational.

In the event test results are unacceptable, the Contractor shall perform necessary repair actions until test results are satisfactory. After the Contractor has taken appropriate corrective action, all tests, including those previously completed and related to the failed test/corrective action, shall be repeated until successfully completed.

Final Acceptance of a migrated circuit will be by the Government Project Manager or assigned representative using MCP to confirm circuit performance.

3.7 Project Management

Contractor shall provide an on-site Contractor Project Manager (CPM) to coordinate all aspects of the site survey, engineering solution, installation, testing, and acceptance certification. CPM shall be responsible for all Contractor team member supervision and labor/resource management activities. The CPM shall be on site (at VSFB) for any on-base project activity. The CPM shall be responsible for scheduling, organizing, and leading weekly meetings to track planning and progress of the project from planning through completion and Government acceptance.

The CPM shall be responsible for providing a weekly status report or IPT meeting minutes deliverable in Contractor format.

The CPM shall coordinate the timing of all contract and subcontract activities to ensure smooth synchronized migration activities by all contractor team and Government members. The effect of the CPM effort shall minimize Government involvement. (For example: timing the circuit provisioning and fiber connections). This coordination includes, but is not limited to, coordinating with Government offices for site access, coordinating Government provided escorts as appropriate, electronic laptop access, Inside Plant fiber connections, and final quality assurance inspections.

CPM shall consolidate and present design, floor diagrams rack elevations for approvals. CPM shall be able to brief project details and answer detailed questions about all facets of the project that might affect each site. CPM shall attend range approval and range scheduling meetings to deconflict against critical launch activities and schedules. During these meetings, CPM shall brief project status when requested.

The CPM shall assist the Government with completing any site approval forms with design specific information to garner final approval for installation. Such forms may require, but are not limited to site component make, model, rack elevation, floor diagram.

All references to keys herein include key cards and key fobs. No keys issued to the Contractor by the Government shall be duplicated. The Contractor shall develop procedures covering key control. Such procedures shall include turn-in of any issued keys by personnel who no longer require access to locked areas. The Contractor shall immediately report any occurrences of lost or duplicate keys/key cards to the CO.

In the event keys are lost or duplicated, the Contractor shall re-key or replace the affected lock/locks only at the direction of the CO. However, the Government may replace the affected lock/locks or perform re-keying. When the Government performs replacement of locks or re-keying because of Contractor key loss or duplication, the total cost of re-keying or the replacement of the lock/locks shall be deducted from the monthly payment due the Contractor.

In the event a master key is lost or duplicated, all locks and keys for that system shall be replaced by the Government and the total cost deducted from a payment due the Contractor.

The Contractor shall prohibit the use of Government issued keys/key cards by any persons other than the Contractor’s representatives. The Contractor shall prohibit the opening of locked areas by Contractor representatives to permit entrance of persons other than Contractor representatives engaged in the performance of assigned work in those areas, or personnel authorized entrance by the CO.
