TAT Performance Work Statement (PWS) – HD TATs Sample TAT #2 – "Homeland Defense and Security / Critical Infrastructure Protection"

Homeland Defense and Security and Critical Infrastructure Protection Support for the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Homeland Defense and Americas’ Security Affairs.

1.0 BACKGROUND

The Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Homeland Defense and Americas’ Security Affairs (OASD (HD&ASA)) is responsible for the supervision of DoD homeland defense activities, defense support of civil authorities, and Western Hemisphere security affairs for the Department of Defense. OASD (HD &ASA) provides overall supervision of homeland defense activities of the Department of Defense. These activities include but are not limited to the

Defense Critical Infrastructure Program (DCIP); domestic antiterrorism; the Defense Continuity

Program; other homeland defense-related activities; and alignment of homeland defense policies and programs with DoD policies for counterterrorism and counter-narcotics. OASD (HD & ASA) coordinates with the Heads of the DoD Components, the Under Secretary of

Defense for Personnel and Readiness (USD(P&R)), and the USD(AT&L) on matters regarding the readiness posture of forces, to include critical infrastructure protection and chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and high-yield explosives (CBRNE) response forces.

OASD HD & ASA has a requirement to obtain homeland defense (HLD) and critical infrastructure protection-related scientific and technical analyses, exercise development and training on behalf of the United States Pacific Command (USPACOM. USPACOM's homeland defense)'s mission and objectives consist of assuring the protection of U.S. citizens, territory, and critical infrastructure and the security of the rear area which supports and sustains the ability of USPACOM forces to operate forward.

HLD requires preparation for, prevention, preemption, deterrence of, and defense against, aggression targeted at U.S. territory, sovereignty, domestic population, and infrastructure; as well as the management of the consequences of such aggression and other domestic civil support. CIP measures identify, assess, protect and monitor essential cyber and physical infrastructures and ensure that those infrastructure assets necessary to execute mission-essential functions are available when needed to execute the USPACOM mission. Anti-terrorist and Force Protection measures serve to deter and disrupt terrorist plans and operations in order to preserve the fighting strength of USPACOM forces for executing contingency and wartime operations in the USPACOM area of responsibility (AOR). Integration of USPACOM HLD efforts with related federal, state and local civil agency, as well as with private sector efforts is necessary to assure coherent comprehensive results. Conducting exercises and games to develop concepts, validate plans and develop the warfighting skills of the operating forces in this new mission area are essential to future success.

As a result, USPACOM has an urgent requirement for technical research, development and computer engineering, science and information technology, and implementation of complex activities required to facilitate HLD planning and policy development, and the integration of

HLD doctrine and procedures at Headquarters, USPACOM, with those of federal, state, and local government, law enforcement, and emergency management agencies throughout the USPACOM area of responsibility (AOR).

3.0 TASKS

3.1 (Task 1) – Post-Award Orientation Conference

The post-award orientation conference will be held within 30 days of award. The contractor shall schedule and conduct this meeting, in coordination with the requiring activity (RA) Technical Point of Contact (TPOC), the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) and Contracting Officer (CO). Within 5 business days, the IAC will provide the TPOC with meeting minutes and a copy of the slides; a courtesy copy of these, including a list of attendees, shall be provided to the COR and CO.

The purpose of the post-award conference is to: 1) explain unique characteristics of the IAC model; 2) identify stakeholders roles and responsibilities; and 3) establish a common understanding of cost, schedule, and performance expectations. Instructions for post award orientation can be found at http://iac.dtic.mil/support_docs/appendix_g_tat_post_award.ppt.

The contractor shall create the following deliverables in support of this task:

Kickoff Brief and Minutes (Deliverable 4.1)

3.2 (Task 2) – STI Relevance Assessment and Gap Analysis

IAC TAT POCs shall maintain close coordination with Basic Center Operations (BCO_ personnel/resources, to ensure TAT performance builds on the breadth of the BCO knowledge base. TAT performance provides an opportunity to validate BCO research/scientific and Technical Information (STI) in a specific, operational context. Further, TAT operational requirements provide real-time assessment of areas where STI is most needed. The intent of this task is to explore and document the relevance of BCO STI resources in supporting TAT requirements, as well as to identify potential gaps in the BCO knowledge base based on TAT requirements. Section J attachment 4 provides additional details on inter relationship of the TA efforts and the BCO contractor within the IAC program. The template for the literature search and gap analysis is provided at http://iac.dtic.mil/support_docs/appendix_f_lit_search.xlsx.

The STI relevance assessment and gap analysis performed annually, builds on the STI literature search performed by the BCO contractor as a part of PWS development, prior to award of the TAT. It identifies, by PWS task, how much STI (gathered from DTIC databases, IAC Quad Charts in DoD Techipedia, and other sources) has been actually used to inform the work performed under the current TAT. The HDIAC BCO shall provide the number of relevant STI search results (from the literature search, or subsequent post-award searches) that was actually employed in executing the PWS task. For the pre-award literature search performed by the BCO, the results will be provided to the TAT awardee (i.e. the contractor performing this PWS) upon award of this TAT. In conducting the STI Relevance Assessment and Gap Analysis, the contractor shall, for each search term, highlight noteworthy examples of how STI significantly contributed to the performance of that particular task. For each task, identify any perceived gaps in the knowledge base (e.g., the task required information on XYZ, but the literature search did not turn up STI on XYZ). These "STI Gaps" serve as a signal for the BCO that they may need to build knowledge in XYZ (i.e., establish focused STI collection for "XYZ"), especially as the BCO notices trends where similar entries are made in this column across multiple TATs.

STI Relevance Assessment and Gap Analysis (Deliverable 4.2)

DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES

1.1 Background. The Department of Defense (DoD) Information Analysis Center (IAC) Program operates in accordance with (IAW) DoD Instruction 3200.14, Principles and Operational Parameters of the DoD Scientific and Technical Information Program, 13 May 97 through Change 3 dated 28 June 2001. DoD IACs function as specialized subject focal points, supplementing the Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) services within DoD Directive DoDD 3200.12, DoD Scientific and Technical Information Program (STIP), 11 Feb 98. All DoD IAC’s are directed to operate IAW all directives, instructions, regulations, and military standards. The DTIC IAC Program Management Office (PMO) is responsible for administrative and operational management of all DoD IACs. Technical report number AD-A184 002, Information Analysis Centers in the Department of Defense, July 87, provides a detailed review of the IAC concept, the 30-year history and the IAC role in the transfer of Scientific and Technical Information (STI). Technical reports can be ordered by DTIC-registered users.

In order to facilitate use of STI, the DTIC IAC PMO undertakes a variety of activities focusing on the development, identification, access, analysis, processing, and dissemination of STI. In accordance with guidance in the FY2008 National Defense Authorization Act, the IAC Program has undertaken an initiative to transition from a single award to a multiple award environment. IAC Program operations encompass two primary categories: Basic Center Operations (BCO) and Technical Area Tasks (TATs). The function of the BCO, which is performed under a separate contract, is focused on Information Collection, Processing/Management, Analysis and Dissemination, with typical activities including maintaining a library, maintaining a presence in the technical community, and growing the library collection (based on relevant research), maintaining a web presence, promoting customer awareness, preparing and publishing a newsletter, maintaining a Subject Matter Expert (SME) network database, and responding to technical inquiries. TATs encompass emerging government requirements and necessitate a rapid and authoritative response, integrating the expertise of a diverse cadre of professionals positioned across various organizations, including representatives from government, industry and academia. The level of research and analysis are above and beyond that required by the Basic Center Operations. The HD TATs provide this advanced level of research and analysis to the DoD Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation (RDT&E) and Acquisition communities. The terms "task order" (TO) and "technical area task" (TAT) are used interchangeably throughout this PWS.

The IACs provide the long-term institutional memory of STI for the DoD (reference the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) 235.010); along with the ability to avoid duplicating STI holdings and analytical capabilities in various Research and Development (R&D) support components. Specifically, HD TATs efforts assist in creating new STI, which is added to the repositories of the respective IAC BCOs, based on the technical focus of the STI. Additionally, HD TATs efforts provide scientific and technical advice to Government, industry, academia, and other approved domestic users in the areas of homeland defense and security. The STI products and services provided under HD TATs efforts are intended to increase the productivity of the RDT&E community, as well as other scientific and engineering groups.

1.2 HD TATs Objectives. The objectives of the HD TATs efforts are to:

a. Draw from and build on the homeland defense and security (HD&S) knowledge base of BCOs and in turn add to that knowledge base through the development and delivery of STI resulting from R&D and R&D-related A&AS services. Foster a connection and engage collaboratively with IAC BCOs performing work in relevant subject areas so as to maximize utilization of BCO products and services and minimize unnecessary duplication of effort.

b. Conduct and/or support a wide range of homeland defense and security related studies, evaluations, and analysis of methods;

c. To promote standardization within the field of homeland defense and security related technology in the DoD environment;

1.3 HD TATs Mission. The mission of the HD TATs contract is to provide RDT&E and R&D-related Advisory and Assistance Services (A&AS) for the vital technical areas delineated in the Technical Scope portion of this Performance Work Statement (PWS). In performing HD TATs research and analyses, the contractor shall facilitate use of existing STI, while reducing unnecessary duplication of research, information collection and analysis, and information dissemination efforts. Furthermore, the contractor shall minimize and/or reduce redundant generation of HD TATs related STI.

1.3.1 Breadth of Support. The technical scope described in this PWS includes homeland defense and security- related work effort necessary to support the following activities:

1.3.1.1. Basic and applied RDT&E activities carried out by DoD components, other U.S. Government agencies and departments and their contractors, state and local governments, as well as international organizations in which the U.S. Government is a member or participant;

1.3.1.2. Military or similarly related operations conducted by DoD components and other U.S. Government agencies and departments or international organizations to which the United States belongs or foreign governments with which the United States has international agreements for military or related operations;

1.3.1.3. Development of doctrine, tactics or plans by DoD components, other Government Agencies and Departments, and foreign military organizations that the Department of Defense provides military assistance and sales;

1.3.1.4. Basic and applied research carried out by industry, academia, and other institutions where the results of such research are expected to provide benefits to the U.S. Government in the future.

1.3.2 RDT&E Services. RDT&E services may constitute applied research and/or development efforts for the primary purpose of advancing scientific and technical knowledge or applying that knowledge to the extent necessary to achieve agency and national goals.

1.3.3 A&AS Services. A&AS services shall be focused on enhancing the productivity of the Defense Research and Engineering community in performing their mission of ensuring that warfighters today and tomorrow have superior and affordable technology to support their missions, and to give them revolutionary war-winning capabilities.

A&AS services as related to R&D focus areas may be applicable to one or more of the following categories:

Management and professional support services - Contractual services that provide assistance, advice or training for the efficient and effective management and operation of organizations, activities (including management and support services for R&D activities), or systems. These services are normally closely related to the basic responsibilities and mission of the agency originating the requirement for the acquisition of services by contract. Included are efforts that support or contribute to improved organization of program management, logistics management, project monitoring and reporting, data collection, budgeting, accounting, performance auditing, and administrative technical support for conferences and training programs.

Studies, analyses and evaluations - Contracted services that provide organized analytical assessments/evaluations in support of policy development, decision-making, management, or administration. Included are studies in support of R&D activities. Also included are acquisitions of models, methodologies, and related software supporting studies, analyses or evaluations.

Engineering and technical services - Contractual services used to support the program office during the acquisition cycle by providing such services as systems engineering and technical direction to ensure the effective operation and maintenance of a weapon system or major system as defined in Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular No. A-109 or to provide direct support of a weapon system that is essential to research, development, production, operation or maintenance of the system.

1.4 Technical Scope. The broad technical scope described herein includes all Homeland Defense and Security-related RDT&E and R&D related A&AS services. These services may support all aspects of identified or potential military, national security-related, and dual use applications of related technologies and methods, as well as the development of tools and techniques that enhance the mission of the DoD Research and Engineering community. TATs can be multi-million dollar efforts, may involve multi-year performance, may involve work for other than DoD customers, may be performed at multiple locations (to include performance outside the Continental United States), require Top Secret facility clearance, and may require personnel clearances up to Top Secret (compartmented and collateral). TATs are not government staff augmentation support services. The level of research and analysis are above and beyond that required by the BCOs. Specific examples of the types of tasks the contractor shall perform under TATs are listed below. This list is not all inclusive but representative of typical TATs tasks. Each TAT (task order) may consist of only one task or may consist of multiple tasks. Over the last 3 years, the average CBRNIAC TAT has been $5.7M. All efforts shall be related to the Homeland Defense and Security-related focus areas listed below in paragraph 1.4.2. The contractor shall not provide staff augmentation services under any scope area. All services must include an analysis component and generate new STI.
