H2F Performance Team PWS Draft.pdf

Performance Work Statement (PWS)

9th Mission Support Command, U.S. Army Reserve-Pacific

Holistic Health and Fitness (H2F) Performance Team (HPT)

1.0 GENERAL INFORMATION

1.1. Title: Army Reserve Holistic Health and Fitness (H2F) Performance Team (HPT).

1.2. Background: The United States Army Reserve (USAR) is operationalizing the Holistic Health and Fitness (H2F) System to ensure sustained Soldier readiness, resilience, and deployability. Unlike the Active Component, Reserve Soldiers train intermittently, which creates unique challenges for maintaining physical conditioning, mental acuity, and medical readiness.

This operational tempo, often described as a "39-Day" model (referring to annual training and weekend battle assemblies (BAs) or multiple unit training assemblies), requires a support structure that also empowers Soldiers during their civilian lives ("Other 28 Days"). Lessons learned from prior USAR H2F pilot activities indicated that the greatest impacts were realized from in-person engagements and that a novel approach is required to deliver the H2F System to a geographically dispersed, part-time force. This contract provides the professional services necessary to execute key aspects of the H2F System, providing continuity and expert guidance aligned with the USAR H2F implementation strategy.

1.3. Type of Contract: Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP).

1.4. Period of Performance (PoP): The contract will include a 12-month base period, with four

(4) 12-month option periods.

● Base Period: 1 October 2026 – 30 September 2027

● Option Period 1: 1 October 2027 – 30 September 2028

● Option Period 2: 1 October 2028 – 30 September 2029

● Option Period 3: 1 October 2029 – 30 September 2030

● Option Period 4: 1 October 2030 – 30 September 2031

1.5. Place of Performance: Primary duty location will be Fort Shafter Flats, Honolulu, HI with TDY required at the facilities at: Fort Shafter Flats, Honolulu, HI; Hilo, HI; Maui, HI; Joint Base Lewis-McChord, WA; Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Anchorage, AK;

Wainwright, AK; Pago Pago, American Samoa; Barrigada, Guam; Camp Zama, JPN; and Camp Humphreys, S. Korea. Travel to subordinate unit locations will be required to support the mission.

1.6. Hours of Operation: Contractor personnel shall provide services aligned with USAR training schedules. The concept of a standard 40-hour workweek may not directly apply;

instead, effort will be tied to supporting scheduled USAR training events, program development, reporting, and approved ancillary tasks. This requires a flexible schedule, as work will frequently occur outside of traditional Monday-Friday business hours, including evenings and weekends, to align with Inactive Duty Training, Annual Training, BAs, and other scheduled events at multiple unit locations. No overtime payment is authorized unless explicitly approved under the contract.

Hours worked begin at the first designated place of duty for the day and end at the last designated place of duty for the day during a scheduled support period.

2.0 OBJECTIVES

The overarching objective of this contract is to improve Soldier readiness, holistic well-being, and retention across the Army Reserve by providing embedded human performance expertise.

This will be achieved by integrating a Human Performance Team (HPT) of professional health and performance experts who will assess, educate, train, and support Reserve Soldiers and their leaders. These efforts are designed to empower Soldiers to take charge of their health, measurably enhance fitness scores, reduce the incidence and severity of both acute and overuse Musculoskeletal Injuries (MSKI), improve body composition in accordance with Army standards, and optimize the overall effectiveness of unit training. The HPT will serve as a force multiplier, enhancing the capability of leaders to implement and sustain the H2F system.

3.0 SCOPE

The Contractor shall provide non-personal services through an interdisciplinary HPT consisting of full-time equivalent (FTE) contractor personnel. The team's primary function is to provide education, program development, and advisory support; it does not involve the direct supervision of Soldiers. The team shall be comprised of:

● Registered Dietician

● Cognitive Performance Specialist

● Strength and Conditioning Coach

● Athletic Trainer

The primary location for the team will be Fort Shafter Flats, Honolulu, HI with travel to U.S. Army Reserve facilities as listed in paragraph 1.5. Contractor staff shall interface with Army Reserve command teams, with Brigade / Battalion H2F Integration Teams (HITs) and with unit leadership to deliver H2F services. This contract does not replace government positions and does not assign the contractor tasks that are inherently governmental, nor closely associated with inherently governmental functions.

4.0 Concept of Support & Travel

4.1 Supported Commands: This HPT will be contracted to support the 9th Mission Support Command and its direct reporting units.

This will require routine and recurring travel to subordinate unit locations to deliver H2F services, education, and subject matter expertise, primarily during BA weekends and Annual Training periods.

4.3 Travel Requirement: All contracted personnel must be available for regular CONUS and OCONUS travel. Travel will be pre-approved by the COR and is a routine and expected part of contract performance, as outlined in the PWS. Travel to certain locations will require a valid U.S.

passport.

Technical Exhibit 4: HPT Contractor Dress Code

This Technical Exhibit establishes the dress and appearance standards for all H2F Performance Team (HPT) contractor personnel. The purpose is to ensure a professional, consistent, and appropriate appearance that is adaptable to the diverse environments in which HPT members will perform their duties, including office settings, classrooms, fitness centers, and field training locations. Adherence to these standards is essential for maintaining credibility, safety, and a professional rapport with Soldiers and leaders.

2.0 Guiding Principles

The HPT dress code is guided by the following principles:

● Professionalism: Attire shall always be professional, clean, neat, and in good repair.

Personnel represent the H2F System and shall always present a professional image.

● Safety & Functionality: Attire shall be appropriate for the specific task and environment, prioritizing safety and allowing for required movement and function without restriction.

● Respect & Inclusivity: Clothing and accessories shall be respectful and inclusive. Items with pictures, emblems, symbols, slogans, or writing that could be perceived as lewd, offensive, vulgar, obscene, political, or promoting drugs/alcohol are strictly prohibited.

● Adaptability: Personnel must be prepared to transition between different environments (e.g., from a classroom briefing to observing an outdoor training event) and should have appropriate attire available.

3.0 Standards of Dress by Environment

3.1 Business Casual / Professional Attire

This is the standard for office work, professional meetings, command-level briefings, and formal classroom instruction.

● Tops: Collared shirts (e.g., polo shirts, button-down shirts), professional blouses, or sweaters.

● Bottoms: Slacks, professional trousers, or khaki-style pants. Skirts of professional length are also acceptable. Denim / jeans are not authorized unless specifically permitted for a unit "spirit" or "casual" day.

3.2 HPT Training Attire

This is the standard daily uniform for most HPT activities, including unit visits, group educational sessions, and general support during Battle Assemblies. This attire presents a unified, professional team appearance.
