VTC/AV Lifecycle Support at Hill Air Force Base – Performance Work Statement
This Performance Work Statement (PWS) defines the requirements for Video Teleconferencing (VTC) and Audio-Visual (AV) system sustainment at Hill Air Force Base, the Utah Test and Training Range (UTTR), and Little Mountain Test Facility (LMTF). The contractor must provide technical solutions and design services, procurement and installation of new systems, user training, and ongoing maintenance services. All personnel must obtain security clearances and comply with DISA Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIG) and cybersecurity requirements. The scope covers both traditional VTC systems and Microsoft Teams-based solutions. Implementation services require industry-certified technicians holding InfoComm CTS-D, CTS-I, or minimum AVIXA CTS certifications. The contractor must deliver a monthly VTC/AV Maintenance Activity Report (MAR) by the 5th business day detailing support requests, response times, resolution status, and STIG compliance efforts, and provide a staffing roster within 10 business days of award with updates within five business days of personnel changes.
The contract categorizes systems into three complexity tiers: Tier 3 (Microsoft Teams maintenance only), Tier 2 (unclassified VTC with minimal equipment), and Tier 1 (secure, classified systems with dual capability supporting both secure and unsecure channels). Response timeframes for maintenance requests are 4 business hours for emergency (critical) issues, 2 business days for routine (medium) issues, and 3 business days for minor (low) issues, with resolution required within 1, 5, and 7 business days respectively. The contractor must monitor systems for end-of-life notifications and STIG compliance, providing written recommendations within three days of identifying non-compliant components. Proposed solutions must include complete component lists, costs for equipment/delivery/engineering/installation/maintenance, schedules, and block diagrams. The contractor shall provide one-year labor warranty on new installations, manage all warranty issues, and bear costs for equipment shipment for repairs and replacements. All personnel require SECRET clearances or interim SECRET clearance at contract start and throughout performance, and must complete required training including OPSEC, security awareness, and environmental compliance courses. Standard hours of operation are 0800–1600 (80 hours per two-week period) with no service required on 11 federally approved holidays, though emergency support may be required outside normal hours with 60 minutes' notice for national commitments.

All Contractors, subcontractors, their employees, associates, and consultants who have access to 416 critical information must comply with Air Force Instruction (AFI) 10-701, Operations Security 417 (OPSEC), and applicable local guidance. OPSEC is a systematic means of identifying and 418 protecting information which an adversary could use against the interests of the US. The critical 419 information list (CIL) identifies sensitive information which requires protection. Counter-420 measures (CM), sometimes called OPSEC measures (OM), are control standards with which all 421 personnel must comply to protect critical information, within AFI 10-701. 422

Due to sensitivity, the following cannot be provided prior to contract award: 424 The sponsor must provide or approve OPSEC training curriculum for use by the Contractor. 425 Training must include awareness topics, CIL, CM/OM, threat/vulnerability, awareness of 426 family/friends, and disciplinary action for non-compliance. The following will be provided (if 427 not included in provided training materials): CIL, CM/OM, adversarial collection threat, OPSEC 428 guidance (AFI 10-701 and applicable local guidance) specifically as it applies to the sponsor’s 429 organization, mission, and the contract. 430
3.15.2 The Contractor must identify personnel who will have access to critical information and 431 ensure they have completed required OPSEC training IAW AFI 10-701, Chapter 5, prior to 432 allowing access to critical information.

The Contractor may 434 create or adapt OPSEC training in lieu of sponsor provided training, provided the new training is 435 reviewed and approved by the sponsor. The Contractor may request approval from the sponsor 436 to streamline refresher training by removing awareness topics IAW AFI 10-701, paragraphs 437
5.2.1 and 5.2.2 (only personnel for which a record exists indicating they have been trained on 438 OPSEC awareness at some previous point in their career), organizational and contract specific 439 training must be continued IAW AFI 10-701, paragraphs 5.2.3 and 5.2.4. The Contractor must 440 track OPSEC training statistics including total number of personnel with access to critical 441 information, a list of their names, date of OPSEC training completion, and when annual refresher 442 training is due. Training must be provided before personnel are allowed access to critical 443 information. The Contractor must ensure all personnel comply with OPSEC standards and 444 practices as trained. Training may require modifications based on updates to critical 445 information, CM/OM, intelligence threat, or other fundamental changes to the OPSEC program. 446 Prior to seeking approval through Hill AFB Public Affairs, any information to be released 447 outside of official U.S. Government channels, via any media, must be coordinated through an 448 OPSEC review by (Gov. Organization’s OPSEC program manager/coordinator). 449
