Western Currency Facility Security Device Operations & Maintenance
PART 1
GENERAL INFORMATION
1. General: This is a non-personal services contract to provide on-site operations and maintenance services for the Bureau of Engraving & Printing (BEP) Western Currency Facility’s Security devices and components. The Government shall not exercise any supervision or control over the contract service providers performing the services herein. Such contract service providers shall be accountable solely to the Contractor who, in turn is responsible to the Government. Services procured under this PWS shall not be personal services, advisory and assistance, or inherently governmental in nature.
Operation and Maintenance of the security equipment includes scheduled preventive maintenance, unscheduled corrective maintenance/repairs, operations, and maintenance of all sub-components (e.g., access control, intrusion detection, closed circuit television, etc.), and other related miscellaneous work. The Contractor shall, to the extent possible, minimize impacts on facility operations when performing all maintenance services. The Contractor shall establish and maintain a Preventative and Corrective Maintenance Program which is subject to approval by the Contracting Officer’s Representative.
The contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, tools, materials, supervision, management, labor, supplies and other items, as necessary, to plan, schedule, perform the operation & maintenance, reconfiguration and re-engineering, monitoring, and emergency repairs of the security equipment and all sub-components.
1.1 Description of Services/Introduction: The contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, supplies, management, labor, facilities, transportation, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and non-personal services necessary to perform security device operations and maintenance services as defined in this Performance Work Statement except for those items specified in Part 3 as government furnished property and services. The contractor shall perform to the standards in this contract.
1.2 Background: The Western Currency Facility is a high security facility providing a complete physical security solution to augment the protection of BEP securities, its personnel, and visitors.
1.3 Objectives: Provide high quality preventative and remedial maintenance services to insure proper operational condition of equipment such that, downtime is kept to an absolute minimum, and the service life of the hardware reaches its full potential.
1.4 Scope: The contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, tools, supervision, management, labor, materials, supplies, transportation and other items as necessary to plan, schedule, perform; operations, maintenance, reconfiguration and re-engineering, monitoring, and emergency repairs as defined in this performance-based work statement (PWS), except as specified in Part 3 as government-furnished property and services, at the Western Currency Facility, 9000 Blue Mound Road, Fort Worth, Texas.

The headend servers are maintained by others.
The Contractor is expected to comply with all required Federal, State, and Local laws, licenses, and regulations. It is the responsibility of the Contractor to comply and be current with all applicable laws and licensing requirements. It is especially important to note that the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Special Publication 800- 53 rev 5, Security and Privacy controls for Federal Information Systems and Organizations, and the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) require government offices to install and maintain an alarm system that monitors physical access to the location to prevent breaches of personal identifiable information in both electronic systems as well as paper documents.
All equipment, devices, software, and hardware must be compatible with the existing equipment and software. Any software additions or upgrades must be fully supported by the manufacturer and not proprietary to any other company. All equipment software and hardware must possess the capability to feed back to the facility’s security suite. Items found to be non-compatible will be replaced by the persons who installed it at no additional cost to the government.
1.5 Period of Performance: The period of performance shall be for one (1) Base Year of 12 months and (4) four 12-month option periods. The Period of Performance reads as follows:
Base Year 01 May 2024 through 30 April 2025 Option Period 1 01 May 2025 through 30 April 2026 Option Period 2 01 May 2026 through 30 April 2027 Option Period 3 01 May 2027 through 30 April 2028 Option Period 4 01 May 2028 through 30 April 2029
