(draft) Performance Work Statement-Unified Tech Service Base IDIQ (v3).docx

Technical Services Directorate Unified IDIQ PWS v1 26 May 2022

C.1 SCOPE:

The Technical Services Unified IDIQ contract is intended to provide support for the software development, IT infrastructure and cybersecurity services provided by the Software Engineering Center (SEC) Technical Services Directorate.

In addition, this single award IDIQ contract is intended to create an integrated contractor and government partnership to achieve the following Technical Services Directorate organizational goals:

a. Organizational wide understanding and adoption of the values and principles described in the Agile Manifesto.

b. A DevSecOps culture and practice that demands cross-functional, cross-team collaboration to implement automated pipelines for rapid software changes and deployment throughout the Army.

c. Cybersecurity is treated as a continuous effort throughout the software development life cycle from design through implementation and maintenance. Cybersecurity will be addressed earlier and throughout the process by the collective team.

To achieve these goals, this contract is designed to facilitate flexible, mobile and agile staffing to provide the right knowledge and skills where needed, when needed to perform at mission relevant speeds.

While executing this contract it is anticipated the task orders will be issued for work execution according to one of the following three patterns:

Development: Task orders for development work will target the generation of previously unavailable software, system or service capabilities. These task orders will augment teams which typically utilize the Agile Scrum framework to incrementally deliver usable software, system configurations or services aligned with the government provide statement of objectives.

Sustainment: Task orders for sustainment work will target maintaining the availability of existing software or system capabilities. These task orders will augment teams that typically utilize the Kanban framework to generate process flow and consistent output frequency.

Technical Support: Task orders for technical support work will target the delivery of discrete software development, cyber security and information technology expertise and capabilities in support of development and sustainment teams both internal and external to the Technical Services Directorate. These task orders will augment teams that typically utilize an Information Technology Service Management framework to fulfill individual service requests.

C.13.2 Sexual Assault and Sexual Harassment Training Criteria

C.13.2.1 Definitions.

a. "Sexual Assault" means - A crime defined as intentional sexual contact, characterized by use of force, physical threat or abuse of authority or when the victim does not or cannot consent. Sexual assault includes rape, nonconsensual sodomy (oral or anal sex), indecent assault (unwanted, in appropriate sexual contact or fondling), or attempts to commit these acts. Sexual assault can occur without regard to gender or spousal relationship or age of victim.

b. “Consent” will not be deemed or construed to mean the failure by the victim to offer physical resistance. Consent is not given when a person uses force, threat of force, or when the victim is asleep, incapacitated, or unconscious.

c. “Sexual Harassment” is a form of sex discrimination that involves unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature when:

(i) Submission to such conduct is made either explicitly or implicitly a term or condition of a person's job, pay, or career, or

(ii) Submission to or rejection of such conduct by a person is used as a basis for career or employment decisions affecting that person, or

(iii) Such conduct has the purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering with an individual's work performance or creates an intimidating, hostile, or offensive working environment. This definition emphasizes that workplace conduct, to be actionable as "abusive work environment" harassment, need not result in concrete psychological harm to the victim, but rather need only be so severe or pervasive that a reasonable person would perceive, and the victim does perceive, the work environment as hostile or offensive. Any person in a supervisory or command position who uses or condones any form of sexual behavior to control, influence, or affect the career, pay, or job of an employee is engaging in sexual harassment. Similarly, any employee who makes deliberate or repeated unwelcome verbal comments, gestures, or physical contact of a sexual nature in the workplace is also engaging in sexual harassment.

C.13.2.2 Categories of sexual harassment are:

a. Verbal - Examples include telling sexual jokes; using sexually explicit profanity threats, sexually oriented cadences, or sexual comments; whistling in a sexually suggestive manner; and describing certain attributes of one's physical appearance in a sexual manner.

b. Nonverbal - Examples include staring at someone, blowing kisses, winking, or licking one's lips in a suggestive manner. The term may also include printed material (for example, displaying sexually oriented pictures or cartoons); using sexually oriented screen savers on one's computer; or sending sexually oriented notes, letters, faxes or email.

c. Physical Contact - Examples include touching, patting, pinching, bumping, grabbing, cornering, or blocking a passageway; kissing; and providing unsolicited back or neck rubs.

C.13.2.3 Contractor Policy. Contractor policy shall comply with the policy adopted by the DoD to prevent sexual assault and sexual harassment. The DoD policy includes the following provisions:
