PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT
PART 1. GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1 Description of services: The contractor shall provide, except as identified in Section 3 as Government Furnished, all personnel, labor, training, supervision, tools, equipment, materials, supplies and transportation necessary to provide guard services at McNary Lock and Dam.
1.2 Background: McNary Lock and Dam is a federal facility operated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). The proximity of the project to a relatively large population base and Project’s missions in hydropower, navigation, fish passage, and general recreation require that the Project, its property, and the personnel working in, on or around the facility be provided a reasonable assurance of security.
1.3 Objectives:
1.3.1 Access Control: Security Guards (SG) shall ensure only authorized personnel are allowed unrestricted access to the Project that all visitors are properly identified, and access controls are communicated and followed. In the event of unauthorized access, the guard will take the appropriate corrective actions. The nature of accomplishment shall be guided by Force Protection Standards, the Operations Project Manager, Project Security Point of Contact, or District Security Office.
1.3.2 Physical Security: Relates to the detection, monitoring, reporting and reacting to any activity which appears to indicate intrusion, vandalism, theft, or other criminal or malicious activities on U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Property. The objective of the guard program in this instance is to provide a deterrent to any individuals considering or attempting any activity which may result from intent to cause harm or damage, and provide a means of response to incidences in occurrence.
1.3.3 Assistance: The guards shall respond to requests for assistance by USACE personnel or the public while on Federal Property. The guards will provide minimal administrative tasks (i.e., printing sign in sheets, completing incident reports, etc.) in support of providing that assistance or contact the appropriate authority to provide assistance. The nature of conduct in providing assistance will be guided by the Operations Project Manager, Project Security Point of Contact, or local standard operating procedures (SOPs).
1.4 Scope: Guards shall be armed guards. Duties of the SGs are categorized by three distinct areas: Routine, Non- Routine and Provisional. Routine Duties: Duties performed daily or several times a day regardless of Force Protection levels or Security Standards are considered to be routine duties. Routine duties may normally be found within the Guard SOPs or Project SOPs provided by the Government and specific on-site orders. Non-Routine Duties: Duties performed on a one-time or infrequent basis are considered non-routine. Notification to the guards performing these duties may be minimal and as short in duration as to be provided upon the beginning of that day's shift. Provisional Duties: Duties which are non-routine, but carried out over an extended duration or period of time, and are expected to be non-permanent (performance is dependent upon existing situations which are temporary in nature) are considered to be provisional.
1.4.1 Period of Performance: The period of performance will be for one (1) Base year of 12 months and four (4) option years of 12 months. The period of Performance reads as follows:
Base Year: 04/01/2020-03/31/2021 Option Year 1: 04/01/2021-03/31/2022 Option Year 2: 04/01/2022-03/31/2023 Option Year 3: 04/01/2023-03/31/2024 Option Year 4: 04/01/2024-03/31/2025
1.4.2 Type of Contract: The government anticipates award of a firm fixed-price commercial service contract.
1.4.3 Duty Days and Hours: Services are required; hours of coverage will be 24 hours a day/7 days a week, 365 days a year. The nature and configuration of shifts performed will be at the discretion of the contractor providing required duties and responsibilities are conducted as outlined in this performance work statement.
1.4.4 Stationing: The Operations Project Manager or the Project Security POC will establish positioning stations for the SGs. The station will be manned as guided by the Operations Project Manager, Project Security POC or local SOPs. During normal duty hours (0600-1700) Monday through Thursday the guard station will be manned constantly during high traffic hours in order to provide the appropriate assistance and access control. High traffic hours will be identified by the Project Manager or the Project Security POC.
1.4.5 Absences and Breaks: The utilization of all breaks (including lunch) shall be coordinated between the SGs and the Project Security POC. The guards will not request relief from Government employees as it shall be the Contractor's responsibility to provide relief for any reason that the guard station might be left unattended with the exception of an unusual situation, emergency or crisis within the duty area of responsibility requiring the attention or assistance of the guard(s), or in the performance of duties as guided by the Operations Project Manager and outlined in local SOPs. If the station is left unattended for any reason with exception to the reasons previously stated or guard services are not being performed during any time during duty days, the Contractor is deemed to have provided non-conforming services for which an equitable price adjustment is warranted in favor of the Government.
1.4.6 Federal Holidays, Non-duty Days, and Alterations to the Work Schedule: The Contracting Officer may, by written modification, alter hours of work, days of duty, personnel required, and scope of duties as deemed necessary by the Government as threats, security conditions, or requirements impacting on mission accomplishment change.
Federal Holidays (Recognized Holidays: New Year’s Day, Martin Luther King Mr.’s Birthday, President's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veteran's Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day) and Holidays declared by Presidential Proclamation shall be considered duty days and services will be required. Infrequently, there may be an occasion when additional coverage is required for an impermanent duration due to construction work, visits by dignitaries, or other unforeseen events. In these events the Government may request additional guard coverage through the Labor Hours CLINS for the respective base year and each option year without modification to this contract. The request will be in writing by the Contracting Officer or their authorized representative and will be provided as soon as possible to the contractor but not later than 24 hours prior to the performance of duty.
1.4.7 Contingency Plan for non-coverage: The contractor will provide the COR with a contingency plan for the event of non-coverage by current employees. This plan shall be provided within 30 days of contract award, and shall include provisions for any manner of approved employee time off, injuries, replacement of personnel in the case of non-compliance to standards.
1.4.8 Security Requirements: There are no special security classifications for this contract.
1.4.9 Individual Reliability Program: In accordance with AR 190-56, Chapter 3, all SGs shall meet the standards of the Individual Reliability Program (IRP) prior to obtaining and in maintaining employment.

OPSEC is an analytical process to identify Critical Information (CI), identify threats to that Critical Information and the related vulnerabilities and risks of exploitation to that CI, and identify, develop, and implement countermeasures to protect that CI. CI is specific facts about friendly intentions, capabilities, and activities vitally needed by adversaries for them to plan and act effectively so as to guarantee failure or unacceptable consequences for friendly mission accomplishment. CI includes those facts, which individually, or in the aggregate, reveal sensitive details about Untied States Government and/or SWF or, the contractor’s Security or operations related to the support or performance of the Statement of Work (SOW) or the Performance Work Statement (PWS), and thus require a level of protection from adversarial collection or exploitation not normally afforded to unclassified information. OPSEC supplements, but does not replace traditional security practices such as Physical Security and Information Security. OPSEC is essential to ensure the initial and continued success of our mission, operations, systems, and procedures.
1.4.12.8.2.1 All contractor employees, to include subcontractor employees, requiring access to Army installations, facilities, controlled access areas, or require network access, shall complete AT Level I awareness training within 30 calendar days after contract start date or effective date of incorporation of this requirement into the contract, whichever is applicable.

1.4.12.8.2.6 All contractor employees and associated sub-contractor employees must complete the DoD IA awareness training before issuance of network access and annually thereafter. All contractor employees working IA/IT functions must comply with DoD and Army training requirements in DoDD 8570.01, DoD 8570.01- M and AR 25-2 within six months of employment.
1.4.12.8.2.7 All contract employees, including subcontractor employees who are not in possession of the appropriate security clearance or access privileges, will be escorted in areas where they may be exposed to classified and/or sensitive materials and/or sensitive or restricted areas.
1.4.12.8.2.8 The Prime Contractor Company must have a Facility Clearance (FCL) at the appropriate level (IAW the NISPOM DOD 5220.22-M and AR 380-49) prior to the start of the contract awarded period of performance.
