1.0 Introduction

This TO PWS provides for non-personal advisory and assistance services (A&AS) to fully support Aerospace Research, Development, Test and Evaluation (RDT&E) activities at the AFTC. It embraces strategic and enterprise-wide concepts by making these services available in support of interrelated and joint RDT&E efforts. An enterprise-wide approach provides, in terms of benefits, the ability to expand and create new relationships in pursuit of shared developments, new technical areas, e.g. unmanned aerial vehicles, and maximize synergies, efficiencies and interoperabilities within and between these stake holder units to fully support these systems. This TMAS 2 TO is the Contractor’s tool for providing agile, responsive and affordable A&AS, innovative processes, concepts and solutions, cost savings, continuous process improvements, and best commercial practices in support of AFTC, its partners, alliances and customers. Execution success relies on a Government-Contractor partnership working in unison, within a multi-functional team, e.g.

AFTC's TMAS Project Management Office (PMO), to meet or exceed the key objectives and goals of the TMAS Program. While the TMAS Program primarily focuses on robust systems engineering and technical assistance services, it is AFTC’s primary source for all A&AS requirements as defined in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 2.101, Definitions, as supplemented.

1.1 96TW Mission and Background.

The 96th Test Wing (96TW), headquartered at Eglin Air Force Base (AFB), is host to a wide range of activities that support all services, multiple Department of Defense (DoD) agencies, Contractors, and Allied Nations. The 96TW, under the command of AFTC, is the test and evaluation center for AF air-delivered weapons, navigation and guidance systems, Command and Control (C2) systems, and AF Special Operations Command (AFSOC) systems. The wing provides expert evaluation and validation of the performance of systems throughout the design, development, acquisition, and sustainment process to ensure the warfighter has technologically superior, reliable, maintainable, sustainable and safe systems. The 96 TW performs DT&E across the complete system life cycle for a wide variety of customers. The 96 TW executes DT&E enabling the warfighter to put weapons on target in all battle space media while also providing support for all other Eglin missions as the installation host wing. In addition to deploying combat ready forces, Eglin provides a full spectrum of support to the Department of Defense’s (DoD's) largest, most dynamic AF Installation. The Eglin Gulf Test Range provides approximately 120,000 square miles of overwater airspace, covering the eastern third of the Gulf of Mexico from the Florida panhandle to the Florida Keys. The land range covers 724 square miles and contains 70 specific test and training areas, including an approved depleted uranium test range and the only qualified air-to-ground supersonic range east of the Mississippi River.

1.2 Scope.

The scope of this TO is to provide any A&AS services to any present or future AFTC unit (or any successor to AFTC) and to non-AFTC organizations (or their successors) identified in the task order solicitation.

The purpose of the Test Wing Enterprise System (TWES) Advisory & Assistance Services (A&AS) Tool is to collect detailed test mission cost data and/or detailed project cost data provided by each Contractor supporting the Technical and Management Advisory Services (TMAS) 2 Task Orders in accordance with (IAW) CDRL A003. The data will then be able to be extracted in a tailorable manner to meet various Government needs, as well as, provide an automated, electronic input into applicable JOCAS systems to facilitate the collection of reimbursable charges from test customers.

b. The Contractor shall provide in a frequency IAW CDRL A003 all actual Contractor and Subcontractor costs into the TWES A&AS Tool for all support described in the PWS.

Subcontractor costs cannot be treated as a Material Cost. The Contractor shall identify and allocate all direct, overhead, and indirect cost types IAW the CDRL A003. The costs reported shall include fully burdened labor rates. The Contractor’s cost accounting system (CAS) shall have adequate internal checks, balances, and audit steps to isolate and identify erroneous or incomplete data and procedural deviations. The Contractor’s uploaded file must pass both format and content validations by the TWES A&AS Tool to enable successful uploading. Format errors will prevent the file from being uploaded in its entirety. Content errors of uploaded files will be identified via the TWES A&AS Tool to aid the Contractor in resolving the errors. Submittals will be date/time stamped within the TWES A&AS Tool.

c. The Contractor shall upload into the TWES A&AS Tool a flat-file IAW CDRL A003, the government-specified format and the specific government-provided codes. The Contractor shall assign all costs to either a direct reimbursable budget authority (RBA) Job Order Number (JON) or an indirect direct budget authority (DBA) JON and corresponding Work Breakdown Structures (WBSs), respectively. JONs and corresponding WBSs are provided by the supported Government organization unit to the individual contractor employee/contractor task lead upon initiation of the specific tasking. The Government organization unit will also communicate to the individual contractor employee/contractor task lead when the JON/WBS is no longer available for charging. The contractor shall also get determination by the Government in determining the JON/WBS for job-related training costs. Sub-element organization units (aka Customer Support Codes [CSCs]) are identified in a TMAS 2 government-provided code table provided by the TWES A&AS Program Manager. In addition, Dummy JONs will be provided by the TWES A&AS Program Manager for organizations/CSCs that do not use JOCAS, or otherwise do not get their funds reimbursed. The government-provided code table may be modified throughout the entire Task Order period of performance to accommodate changing government units, non- JOCAS programs, etc.

d. The Prime Contractor’s designated personnel authorized to upload into the TWES A&AS Tool will be identified as Uploaders in the TWES A&AS Tool. Up to two (2) Government-provided laptops requiring computer access cards (CACs) issued by a Government sponsor will be provided to the Prime Contractor’s designated Uploaders to allow for uploading from an off-base location. The government provided laptops shall be routinely taken to a designated on-base government unit for configurations and mandatory upgrades.
