Dated: 17 July 2026

PWS 2

1.0. INTRODUCTION / BACKGROUND: The mission of the 505th Command and Control Wing (CCW) is to build the predominant air and space command and control (C2) capability for joint and combined warfighters through training, testing and exercising under the direction of the United States Air Force Warfare Center (USAFWC), Nellis AFB, NV. The 505 CCW consists of two subordinate groups, the 505th Test and Training Group (TTG) located at Hurlburt Field, FL and the 505th Combat Training Group (CTG) located at Nellis AFB, NV, and one Detachment, 505 CCW, Det 1 located at Fort Leavenworth, KS. While the 505 CCW has subordinate squadrons and detachments at various locations around the Continental United States (CONUS), the task order will focus on the 505th CTG and Detachment 1.

1.1. The 505h CTG consists of four subordinate squadrons, the 505th Combat Training Squadron (CTS), 705th Combat Training Squadron (CTS), 805th Combat Training Squadron (CTS) and the 505th Communications Squadron (CS). This task order will focus specifically on the 505th CTS.

The 505th CTS delivers joint theater environments and world class scenario generation and exercise control for operational C2 warfighter training. The 505 CTS is located at Hurlburt Field, FL.

1.2. The 505 CCW Det 1 primary mission (ref AFI 10-251 and ACC Sup 1; USAFWC CAC MOU; and 505 CCW Mission Directive) is to provide support to CAC and MCTP by integrating CSAF/CSA directed JTTI into Army Contingency Expeditionary and Deployable Expeditionary Force (CEF/DEF) JNTC exercises at JTF, Corps, Div and BCT levels. Det 1 facilitates the replication of the Air Component and provides theater specific, accurate, relevant, doctrinally correct Joint/Combined Air Component interaction during planning and execution of exercises for Army and Air Force units preparing for combat. Det 1 is located at Fort Leavenworth, KS.

1.3. ASSOCIATE CONTRACTOR AGREEMENT: While not directed under this PWS, security support is critical to effectively execute the tasks listed in this PWS. It is vital the Contractor works seamlessly with any Contractor that interface with the 505 CCW for related to Security support for mission execution success.

1.4. CUSTOMER INTERFACE/INTEGRATION: The contractor shall appoint a Contract Lead to oversee all aspects of contractor performance.

1.4.1. Establish processes which encourage efficiencies to achieve savings for tasks associated with this PWS.

1.4.2. Meet with the government Program Manager and/or contracting official as requested.

1.4.3. Sufficient and timely response to requests for information.

2.0 TASK ORDER OBJECTIVE: The contractor shall provide exercise/mission support services for Air Operations Center Replication Cell (AOC RC) activities for the 505th CTS, Hurlburt Field, FL and Det1, Fort Leavenworth, KS.

3.0 REFERENCE: This Task Order invokes the provisions of the associated GSA OASIS IDIQ contract and PWS.

PWS 3

4.0 PROGRAM SCOPE: The contractor shall promote capabilities that mitigate training gaps in joint exercises and home station training by replicating AOC functionality and operational functions of air, space, and cyberspace power in the 505 CTS (see Appendix A for typical calendar year events). The AOC RC plays a critical role in facilitating accomplishment of joint training objectives. The AOC RC will support Joint and Service exercises and training programs accredited within the Joint National Training Capability (JNTC). The government’s intent is for the contractor to provide realistic and scalable AOC products and processes appropriate to the organizational level of the training audience. Depending on the specific training program, exercise or event, the training audience may range from the operational level of the Joint/Combined Force Commander to airmen, soldiers, sailors and marines at the tactical level.

The AOC RC participation overlays elements of air, space and cyberspace power doctrine by replicating the air component products to drive the effects of Joint All Domain Command and Control (JADC2) and the relevant processes to do such. The intent is to demonstrate and establish an understanding within the training audience of the full air, space and cyberspace capabilities presented through the Combined or Joint Force Air Component Commander (CFACC or JFACC C/JFACC), and the Combined or Joint Air Operations Center (CAOC or JAOC C/JAOC). Effective synchronization of air, space, and cyberspace power effects into the ground, maritime, or space scheme of maneuver and/or employment will enhance command and control concept development for future joint contingency operations.

4.0.1. The AOC Replication Cell provides AOC functionality requested by other Service components to support their joint training events. This AOC Replication Cell will assist in both the planning and execution phases of these events. The AOC RC may be called upon to augment Exercise Control Groups supporting other joint training events or to augment focused collection efforts for the purposes of developing tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP). For smaller training events, this Replication Cell may be the only Air Force participant and may be called upon to plan and execute the Air Force AOC portion of the exercise. In larger, more complex training events, the Replication cell will be augmented by other forces (i.e., NAF, Reserve/Guard or other Exercise Control Groups), sourced through the ACC exercise staffing process, or Joint Force exercise planning element. The AOC RC will provide the core Air Component capability and continuity throughout the planning and execution process. This corporate capability will strengthen event planning and execution and will allow augmentees to rally around a persistent, professional Replication Cell capability and spin-up for execution in an effective manner.

The AOC RC shall accomplish the following AOC-related tasks:

4.0.1.1. Day-to-day air, space and cyberspace operations; assist with rapid reaction, positive control, coordination and deconfliction of weapons employment and integration of the total air, space and cyberspace effort.

4.0.1.2. Use of all-source intelligence and weather information to support air, space and cyberspace operations planning, execution and assessment.

4.0.1.3. Use of airspace control procedures and coordination of airspace control activities for the Airspace Control Authority (ACA) when the COMAFFOR/CFACC is designated as the ACA.
