PART I - CONTRACT STATEMENT OF WORK

C.1 BACKGROUND

The John A. Volpe National Transportation Systems Center (Volpe Center) is a Federal fee-for-service organization within the Office of Assistant Secretary for Research & Technology (OST-R) of the United States Department of Transportation (USDOT). The Volpe Center’s mission is to improve the nation’s transportation systems. In partnership with sponsoring agencies, the Volpe Center provides technical research and analysis services to the USDOT, other Federal agencies, state agencies, and other organizations and businesses in connection with the transportation-related components of their missions.

The Volpe Center’s focus is research and innovation in all areas of transportation to improve the transportation system for the future. The Volpe Center is an active partner with several agencies in defining and implementing the future transportation system. For example, the Interagency Planning Officer (formerly known as the Joint Planning and Development Office (JPDO)) has developed an interagency framework in which several executive agencies of the U.S. Government, including the USDOT, are participating in developing the future aviation system. Within the USDOT, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is leading the future aviation system activities.

The Volpe Center supports the FAA’s Air Traffic Organization (ATO), Program Management Organization (PMO) in system management, development, engineering and deployment activities using a variety of Federal and Contractor personnel. Currently, the Volpe Center’s Traffic Management Infrastructure Services (TMIS) contracts are providing significant ongoing support to the ATO PMO.

The work under this contract is currently being performed as a portion of the work within the much larger scope of the TMIS contracts.

The organizational design of the PMO, as approved by Congress, aims to facilitate, through a single FAA organization, the effective definition, design, development, and deployment of nearly all of the ATO’s capabilities in the National Airspace System (NAS).

One of the two branches within the PMO is the Air Traffic Systems (ATS) Directorate which is characterized by developing, deploying and operating systems that deliver services to all segments of the

NAS:

• Systems that provide accurate and reliable surveillance and automation for aircraft separation services provided by controllers to pilots

• Systems that support decision-making for traffic flow managers

• Systems that provide services directly to pilots for improved safety and efficiency

While the five groups that make up the ATS Directorate share the same mission and strategic goals, each group has its own unique set of programs and initiatives. The groups that make up the Directorate are as follows:

• AJM-21 – Air Traffic Management Programs, focuses on the air traffic automation systems that controllers use to manage aircraft in National Airspace. Major programs that reside in this group are En Route Automation Modernization (ERAM) and Terminal Automation Modernization and Replacement (TAMR).

• AJM-22 – Decision Support Programs, focuses on the support programs air traffic controllers, pilots, and airlines use to make informed decisions during aircraft operations. These programs also help increase air traffic flexibility and capacity, allowing for more dynamic NAS operations.

• AJM-23 – Surveillance Services Group focuses on the surveillance systems that provide the complete picture for operations taking place in the National Airspace. These systems range from traditional ground based radar to more advanced GPS based positioning systems.

• AJM-24 – Terminal Field Operations Support is responsible for ensuring the successful deployment and sustainment of systems residing in the terminal domain. This group also helps coordinate major software updates and hardware upgrades in the field.

• AJM-25 – En Route and Oceanic Second Level Engineering, is responsible for ensuring the successful deployment and sustainment of systems residing in the En Route and Oceanic domains. This group also helps coordinate major software updates and hardware upgrades in the field.

Each group within the ATS Directorate is responsible for systems that support tactical operations today, as well as for developing new tools that are forming the basis for NextGen. The Directorate plays an integral part in each of the Define, Design, Develop, Deploy, and Sustainment Phases of life-cycle management.

The other branch of the PMO, the Enterprise Services Directorate (ESD), develops, acquires, deploys, maintains, sustains, and improves navigation, communications, weather, and aeronautical information products and services for the NAS. Navigation Services covers projects in the following areas: Global Positioning System (GPS) Satellite-Based Augmentation, GPS Ground-Based Augmentation, Ground Systems, Lighting Systems, and Technical Support. Communications Services provides communications and telecommunications services consistent with International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) standards required for air traffic control within the NAS. It provides communications infrastructure and services for the Department of Defense (DOD) to ensure interoperability with the NAS. Weather services provide sensor, processor, and distribution systems required to provide accurate forecasts for timely air traffic decisions.

C.2.II CLIN 0200 - RISK, ISSUE AND OPPORTUNITY MANAGEMENT

C.2.II.1 Task Area 1 – Risk, Issue and Opportunity Management

Risk, Issue, and Opportunity (RIO) Management is a systems engineering and program management process focused on identifying, analyzing, assessing, monitoring and tracking events throughout the life of a program or project that may have a negative impact on program success considering technical, cost, and schedule facets. The power in the RIO management process is in the development, tracking and implementation of step-by-step plans to lessen (or increase, in the case of opportunities) the likelihood and/or consequences of the event (i.e., negative impact on program success) occurring. The implementation of each step in the plan ranges from simple coordination efforts to large scale engineering analyses. RIO Management is a key ongoing activity throughout the FAA’s Acquisition Management System (AMS) lifecycle and is performed from the mission analysis phase through the service life extension phase.

The PMO’s RIO management process was tailored and developed as a tiered and integrated process.

RIO’s are identified and managed at the program level (Tier 3); the directorate level (Tier 2); and at the AJM-2 and AJM-3 level (Tier 1). The key functionality of this process is that RIOs satisfying the set criteria for elevation to a higher level tier (including if the RIOs are shared across multiple programs) are appropriately identified and subsequently up-leveled for visibility and/or management. RIO Management activities include, but are not limited to:

• Facilitate the Government’s development or enhancement of a tailored RIO process for each organization, make suggestions regarding successful Government monitoring of organizational compliance with the process guidance, and capture lessons learned which will then be provided as feedback to the Government for use in its continuous process improvement.

• Coordinating with Subject Matter Experts (SMEs), stakeholders, management, and project team members to:

o Identify RIO;

o Develop RIO statements appropriately capturing the root cause or essence of the RIO;

o Analyze and assess each RIO; and o Develop thorough step-by-step plans to address the RIO’s likelihood and/or consequence and continually track their progress.

• Facilitate RIO Management board meetings.

• Implementing or assisting in the implementation of the step-by-step plans, as appropriate.

• Administration and maintenance of the ATS RIO Management database.

• Development of custom reports for the ATS RIO Management database.

• Providing technical input, coordination and oversight for development of associated

Knowledge Sharing Network RIO Management sites.

• Coordinating with RIO Managers at other levels of the tiered ATS RIO Management process, as necessary.

• Development of risk reports summarizing planned and potential risk mitigations, the probability of each risk being realized, the effectiveness of mitigation activities, and the level of effort spent for risk management activities.

• Coordination with responsible parties and subject matter experts to develop and update risk mitigation plans.

• Generation of white papers and briefings applicable to the RIO process.

C.3 SUSTAINABLE ACQUISITION REQUIREMENTS

To the maximum extent possible and consistent with FAR Part 23, during the performance of the work under this SOW, the Government requires the Contractor to provide or use products that are energy efficient (ENERGY STAR® or FEMA- designated); water-efficient; bio based; environmentally preferable (e.g., EPEAT-registered or non-toxic or less toxic alternatives); non-ozone depleting; or made with recovered materials. Unless otherwise identified in this SOW or in an individual task order, each recovered materials or bio based product provided and delivered must meet, but may exceed, the minimum recovered materials or bio based content of an EPA- or DOA-designated product.
