PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS)

24 January 2019

1.0 DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES

1.1 Background. This requirement is to provide operational, functional and technical support to the Air Mobility Command (AMC) Directorate of Operations (A3) Joint Exercise Division (A3Y) and the 618th Air Operations Center (AOC) Tanker Airlift Control Center (TACC) Director of Global Readiness (XOP), to advise in budgeting, programming, planning, conducting, and reporting AMC participation in Chairman, Joint Chiefs Staff (CJCS), Combatant Command (COCOM), and Joint National Training Capability (JNTC) sponsored exercises. The program includes Command Post Exercises (CPX), Field Training Exercises (FTX), Computer Assisted Exercises (CAX) using the JLVC (Joint Live Virtual Constructive) construct, USTRANSCOM and AMC system testing – either in direct support to USTRANSCOM or in support of AMC/A6 on new releases to AMC systems, seminars, and no-notice interoperability exercises. Many of these exercises require modeling and simulation support to portray activities HQ AMC engages in as part of real world day-to-day air mobility operations. The exercises are used to train the command (defined as HQ AMC, 18th Air Force (18 AF), 618 AOC, 621 CRW and other MAF components) in global joint operations and assess the commands capability to meet air mobility requirements in fast-paced and stressful environments.

1.2 Objectives. This requirement is multi-faceted and is intended to aid AMC/A3Y in developing realistic exercise scenarios and training materials to train the HQ AMC Staff, 18 AF Staff, the 618 AOC (TACC), subordinate AMC units, and supported command staffs, as well as the Joint Staff and service staffs in joint operations with an emphasis on air mobility operations.

Success in achieving these objectives is dependent upon contractor personnel having extensive and current knowledge of air mobility operations and the myriad factors which must be considered in planning joint operations. Contractor employees shall have a minimum of 6 years Mobility Air Forces (MAF) operational experience (either flying or support (Command and Control (C2), Air Evacuation (AE), Logistics, etc.)), in planning and conducting exercises using procedures outlined in the Joint Event Life Cycle (JELC). Contractor knowledge of command relationships, responsibilities, functions and the C2 systems used to conduct joint operations is critical to successful execution of this contract. Contractor employees shall have knowledge of and experience (minimum six years of experience) in using both Joint Operational Planning and Execution System (JOPES) and AMC C2 systems of record is also critical (ref para 9.1).

Other objectives include providing AMC support in coordinating operational requirements to technical planning efforts in creating AMC C2 modeling and simulation data which supports the COCOM and Theater AOC efforts; preparing exercise documentation, participating in exercise planning conferences and troubleshooting execution issues of a technical nature and documenting the results. For the purpose of this requirement, the term “exercise” refers to Joint/Combined Exercises and Air Force Level CAXs and supported is defined as 24 hours a day/7 days a week (24/7) during execution.

1.3 Scope. The contractor shall support AMC in planning (operational, functional and technical) and conducting CPXs and CAXs to train the HQ AMC staff, 18 AF Staff and the 618 AOC (TACC). The contractor shall support AMC/A3Y in developing and maintaining the command Joint Training Plan (JTP) and review AMC Mission Essential Tasks (METs) and the associated conditions and standards on an annual basis. The contractor shall ensure AMC exercise objectives are clearly identified with AMC METs, coordinated with United States Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM), and integrated into the overall exercise scenario to ensure optimum training value. The contractor shall develop, as determined by AMC/A3Y, Exercise Directives, Exercise Briefings, Control Staff Instructions (COSINs), and other training materials and attend planning conferences as directed by AMC/A3Y to coordinate AMC exercise participation with the Joint Staff, Services, and other commands. The contractor shall provide constructive airlift schedules for use in CPXs and CAXs, provide manpower for the AMC Exercise Control Group (ECG) and/or the Exercise Response Cell (ERC). Following each supported exercise involving either the AMC staff, 18AF, 618 AOC (TACC) and MAF Wings and units participation, the contractor shall provide an after-action report to AMC/A3Y. The After-action Report (AAR) shall include appropriate observations in the Joint Lessons Learned Information System (JLLIS) format. The contractor shall develop, with AMC/A3Y, inputs to the USTRANSCOM Hot Wash briefing and after-action items for USTRANSCOM and USAF as needed by AMC/A3Y. The contractor shall provide AMC/A3Y and AMC/FMAT (Financial Management Assessment Team) with annual JEP flying hour and commercial contract cost estimates for the Budget Review (BR) and Program Objective Memorandum (POM) and report actual airlift costs on a monthly basis to the Joint Staff, Services, USTRANSCOM, and exercise sponsoring commands. The contractor shall assist the sponsoring commands in developing their JEP annual airlift budgets as needed for the upcoming two years, maintain an updated estimate of costs for the operating year, and provide AMC/FM with quarterly reports of costs incurred for the past three months and estimated airlift costs for the next three months.

The contractor shall also provide support to AMC/A3Y and HQ AMC/A6I in translating USTRANSCOM and Theater Air Mobility operational requirements into technical planning efforts, loading AMC/C2 modeling and simulation data onto AMC/A6 maintained and provided systems (for example: Global Decision Support System (GDSS), Consolidated Air Mobility Planning System (CAMPS), etc.). Also, prepare exercise documentation and participate in exercise planning conferences as required / directed by AMC/A3Y. Contractor shall coordinate operational and technical exercise-related issues with USTC, AMC, Numbered Air Forces (NAFs), COCOMs, developers, and other organizations. Contractor shall provide operational support for AMC Joint/Combined and Air Force Exercise taskings, to include working with AMC/A6I on the development of accurate technical architecture requirements and drawings.

Contractor shall facilitate troubleshooting of C2 systems outages and communications problems on behalf of AMC/A3Y (operational issues) during relevant Joint/Combined and Air Force exercises.

1.4. Surge. At the discretion of the Contracting Officer Representative (COR) and Contracting Officer (CO), surge dollars may be authorized for periods or tasking requiring immediate or sustained effort deemed out of the ordinary and require the contractor to exceed the hours of operation prescribed in the PWS. An example of this could be contractor support of an added no-notice COCOM exercise event due to changing national interest requiring the contractor to work beyond the normal work hours.

All work to be performed under this CLIN will be identified and approved by the COR and the CO. The CO will request the contractor submit a quote for this effort based on the COR’s determination. The COR and the CO will then evaluate the quote. Upon approval by the COR and the CO, a modification will be issued to exercise the surge CLIN.

The decision of whether or not the work to be performed is chargeable to Surge Hours rests solely with the Government. The COR not approving Surge Hours shall not be construed by the contractor as being a reason for an excusable delay or providing the basis for failing to provide the services required by the contract.
