DRAFT (Subject to Change) Development and Maintenance of the Chemical Accountability Management Information Network (CAMIN)
Performance Work Statement (PWS)
1 General Information:
Scope: The Contractor, as an independent Contractor and not as an agent of the Government, shall provide the necessary resources (except for those identified as Government furnished property) to perform the work described herein for services for the Chemical Materials Activity (CMA). The scope of the Chemical Accountability Management Information Network (CAMIN) is to provide accountability and reporting data to generate documentation in formats described in the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC). CAMIN is integral to the reporting of the Army’s Toxic Chemical Munitions (TCM) and Bulk Agent (BA). System operation is critical for recovered chemical warfare materiel accountability. The CAMIN system accounts for the Army’s Toxic Chemical Munitions (TCM) and Bulk Agents (BA). The Stockpile Management Office (SMO) uses CAMIN to monitor the status of the recovered chemical warfare materiel, monitor inventory levels, monitor stock movements and transfers, maintain basic catalog data, process materiel release requests and orders, issue-controlled document numbers, plan and report annual inventory, and maintain historical information on past transactions. The CAMIN system contains data maintaining International Treaty Declarations in compliance with the Multilateral Chemical Weapons Convention. The database includes historic production facility data, and past transfers of production equipment.
1.1 Background/General Information: CAMIN is a system used to maintain toxic chemical munitions and bulk agent (TCM/BA) accountability data in accordance with (IAW) Department of Defense (DOD), Department of the Army (DA), and Army Material Command (AMC-R 740- 28), to store Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC) reporting data and generate documentation in formats described in the CWC. Through the CAMIN, CMA accesses a database developed for the U.S. Army and its Executive Agent for Chemical Treaty Compliance (EA-CTC), and generates treaty required documentation. This contract will provide services to the Stockpile Management Office (SMO) fulfillment of chemical treaty requirements for the center for treaty Implementation and Compliance (formerly the Executive Agent for Chemical Treaty Compliance) in the main areas of:(1) Program Management (2), Cybersecurity (3) Meetings, Reports and Materials (4) System Maintenance (5) Technical Support Services (6) Training/Certification and (7) Demobilization and Retirement.
Objective: The objective of this effort is to maintain and update CAMIN system functionality, maintain system operations, and provide user support.
Specific Tasks: (1) Program Management (2), Cybersecurity (3) Meetings, Reports and Materials (4) System Maintenance (5) Technical Support Services (6) Training/Certification and (7) Demobilization and Retirement.
Mission: SMO’s principal mission is to manage CAMIN and ensure Toxic Chemical Munitions (TCM) are stored in a manner that is consistent with established policy and procedures (AMC-R 740-28), that affords maximum safety and protection of the workforce, the environment, and surrounding communities. SMO must also manage the CAMIN system in compliance with the DOD Chemical Weapons Treaty and the Army Wholesale Accountability missions. SMO, as the National Inventory Control Point (NICP) is responsible for the full accountability of the TCM/BA with direct authority for the recovered chemical warfare materiel until demilitarization. This includes all logistics and accountability functions associated with the wholesale supply account. SMO maintains the NICP records for TCM/BA indefinitely, as they are subject to review/inspection by the Chemical Weapons Treaty inspection team members. SMO operates and maintains the CAMIN website, which provides the tools to maintain the inventory, initiate and process request for movement, document destruction, and provide management reports to all levels of Department of Defense/Department of State (DoD/DoS). SMO provides training to CAMIN users located at the chemical activities as well as a higher headquarters. SMO provide CAMIN management, user, and system technical support assistance. CAMIN must comply with Army Regulations 25-1 and 25-2, as well as DoD Instruction 8510.01, 19 July 2022. CAMIN satisfies Army goals for web (or browser) based information systems, public key enablement, and reductions in servers and applications.
