CHAPTER 1
GEODSS OVERVIEW
1.0. MISSION. The GEODSS Program is comprised of three Detachments (Dets) at geographically-separated locations at Socorro, New Mexico (Det 1); Diego Garcia, British Indian Ocean Territory (Det 2); and Maui, Hawaii (Det 3). Each Det operates with three optical telescopes (referred to as optical sensors throughout the PWS). The 21st Operations Group (21 OG), Peterson Air Force Base (AFB), Colorado, has responsibility for all GEODSS Dets. The GEODSS system supports the United States Strategic Command (USSTRATCOM) and theater war fighter’s requirements through the detection and surveillance of deep space satellites. The system detects, tracks, identifies, and reports on all deep-space man-made objects in the Earth’s orbit within the telescopes’ field of view. The GEODSS Dets perform the mission using three 1-meter telescopes each with a 1.68 degree field of view; low light level, electro-optical cameras;
and high speed computers. These optical sensors detect sun light reflecting off of space objects.
Mission operations are conducted between civil sunset and sunrise. Satellite information is provided to the Joint Space Operations Center (JSpOC) at Vandenberg AFB, California.
1.1. SCOPE. The Contractor shall provide non-personal services to manage, operate, maintain, and provide logistical and general support services for the GEODSS system at Det 1, Det 2 and Det 3. In addition to providing GEODSS system operation and maintenance (O&M) requirements, contracted services include exercises and testing, communications-electronics maintenance management, electronic systems maintenance, logistics management, communications, environmental, civil engineering, occupational health, security and information management requirements. Contracted services shall also be provided in support of system upgrades and modifications. The Contractor shall perform organizational level maintenance on system upgrades and modifications once they are accepted by the Government.

1.1.2. N-CSDS Sidecar. N-CSDS sidecar is being deployed to GEODSS Det 1, Socorro, NM, Det 2, Diego Garcia, BIOT, and Det 3, Maui, HI as part of the mission system. The sidecar hardware improves space situational awareness (SSA) responsiveness by integrating existing space surveillance network (SSN) sensors, processing and control nodes into a net-centric environment without impacting current mission operations. The N-CSDS sidecar consists of one standard rack containing 7 Dell servers, 2 Level 7 switches, and other associated hardware and the software.
NOTE: The provisions of Chapter 4 also apply: maintenance of the sidecar shall follow all standard maintenance practices. Additional information shall be provided on Net-Centric Sensors and Data Sources (N-CSDS) support requirements as system documentation and technical orders (TOs) are finalized.

2.1. SENSOR OPERATIONS. The Contractor shall accomplish the sensor mission IAW STRATCOM Directive (SD) 505-1(S), Volume (Vol) I and II, and JSpOC taskings. Operate all available sensors during the operational period to meet taskings. Ensure that all available sensor time in excess of that required to accomplish taskings is used to perform area searches, developing/testing approved tactics techniques and procedures (TTPs), future tactics improvement proposals (TIPs), or other tasks. In addition, the Contractor shall:
2.1.1. Mission Scheduling. Accomplish mission scheduling before the start of the operational period by identifying routine and special metric taskings, Space Object Identification (SOI) signature gathering and raw video collection, and any TIPs to be accomplished during the operational period. Special metric tasking of high interest to HHQ shall be jointly planned and executed among the 3 detachments whenever possible. Incorporate SOI taskings to maximize system accomplishment of daily, weekly, and monthly tasking requirements. Schedule attempts to provide time separation within weather, equipment, and tasking constraints based upon weekly or monthly requirements. The Contractor shall coordinate with the Det/CC prior to testing out preliminary procedures for potential TIPs. The Contractor shall coordinate with the Det/CC prior to implementing proposed TIPs that have been tested.
2.1.2. Taskings. Accomplish Higher Headquarters (HHQ) taskings and reporting requirements issued by the JSpOC, the Distributed Space Command and Control-Dahlgren (DSC2-D), National Air and Space Intelligence Center (NASIC) and USSTRATCOM.
2.1.2.1. Metric Taskings. Perform metric taskings as directed by JSpOC in the Consolidated Tasking List (CTL) and associated updates.

If object is not tracked due to the above limitations, notify the Contracting Officer Representative (COR).
2.1.3. Manually Tasked Objects. Enter taskings manually if not received through normal channels. Perform manual scheduling, special sensor settings and other special techniques. The Contractor shall document unique procedures that are not included in technical orders, for potential tactic improvement proposal (TIP) consideration on an AF IMT Form 4326 or in locally developed procedures. AF IMT Form 4326s and proposed locally developed procedures shall be submitted to the Det CC for review/processing and potential initial approval for use through AFSPC/A3, and/or at the discretion of the 21 SW/CC.

2.1.7. Sensor Contractor Controlled Availability (Acc ) and Operational Availability (Ao ) by
Site.
2.1.7.1. Acc Calculation. Provide the monthly calculation for Acc in the QSR. Maintain an overall sensor Acc each calendar month of not less than 99% to meet mission operational requirements defined in SD 505-1(S) Vol I and II. See Section 2, GEODSS Service Summary.
Acc is expressed as a percentage and represents that portion of time the system is performing its assigned mission based on the Contractor liable downtime (CLD) relative to a specified operating time. The Acc is calculated on a monthly basis as follows:
Acc = Active Minutes – CLD Downtime
Active Minutes
2.1.7.2. Acc Sample Calculation. If a site had three sensors available and all three were 500 minutes of available operational time, the total active hours would be 1500 minutes. If two sensors were available for the entire period and one sensor was not available for 75 minutes because of Contractor personnel operator error, the calculation for Acc would be calculated as
Acc =1425/1500=.95. See Appendix E for Acc formula definitions.
2.1.7.3. Ao Calculation. Provide the monthly calculation for sensor Ao in the QSR. See
Appendix A, Report Number R1-1.2. Ao is expressed as a percentage and represents that portion of time the system is performing its assigned mission based on the system downtime relative to a specified operating time. See Appendix E for Ao formula definitions.
Ao = Active Minutes – Downtime
Active Minutes
2.1.8. GEODSS Operations Training Plan. Develop and implement a GEODSS Operations Training Plan designed to keep operators proficient in GEODSS mission system requirements.
Standardize the training program across the three GEODSS sites. Conduct initial and monthly recurring training, using a task-based approach, addressing mission performance requirements in this chapter. Monthly recurring training shall cover all individual tasks within a one-year timeframe. Provide a copy of the training plan at contract start and updates as changes occur.

Personnel on leave or on temporary duty (TDY) shall receive recurring training prior to their first duty shift upon return. Certify in writing that operations personnel have completed all applicable training for an operational position. No individual shall perform any system operations task for which they have not been trained unless under the direct supervision of fully trained and certified personnel. Documented completion of recurring training as outlined above and within the Contractor’s Operations Training Plan shall constitute annual re-certification.
2.1.8.2. Maintain individual training records for all operations personnel. Training records shall reflect all training received on- and off-site.
2.1.8.3. Provide initial on-site hands-on-equipment operations training for AF personnel. When the Contractor is training a military member, a minimum of one sensor shall remain in operational mode. All available sensors shall be made available for the trainee to use, provided a certified Contractor is overseeing him. The Contractor shall not be held accountable for any mission degradation or equipment damage due to the actions of a certified military member.
