PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS)

for

Defense Personnel and Family Support Center (DPFSC)

Marketing, Advertising, and Fulfillment Services

7 June 2018

1.0 INTRODUCTION

DPFSC requires comprehensive fulfillment and fully integrated advertising and marketing service to support the

Call Center; Computer/Electronics Accommodations Program (CAP); Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve

(ESGR); Federal Voting Assistance Program (FVAP); Office of Reintegration Programs (ORP); Strategic

Communications; and the Transition to Veterans Program Office (TVPO).

2.0 BACKGROUND

2.1 This is an ongoing requirement in support of DPFSC programs whose mission is to develop and promote supportive work and voter environments for uniformed service members through outreach, recognition, and educational opportunities that increase awareness of applicable laws, and resolves voter informational gaps and employment conflicts.

2.1.1 The contractor shall provide supplies and services for on-going sustainment of the DPFSC Fulfillment services program in support of the CAP, FVAP, ORP, TVPO and ESGR missions. As such, the contractor will provide program management and execution services for the Product Items List. For CAP, these events and services are authorized in accordance with DoDI 6025.22, Assistive Technology (AT) for Wounded, Ill, and Injured Service

Members which provides support for an interdependent AT system between DoD Human Resources Activity’s

(DoDHRA) Computer/Electronic Accommodations Program (CAP), the Military Health System (MHS), and the

Recovery Coordination Program. For FVAP, these services are authorized in accordance with DoDI Instruction

1000.04, Federal Voting Assistance Program (FVAP),10 USC 1566 and 52 USC 20301 (Uniformed and Overseas

Citizens Absentee Voting Act) which mandates the provision of informational material to the voting public in order to enhance informed voting decisions. For ORP, these events are mandated by Public Law 110-181, Section 582, Yellow Ribbon Reintegration Program and DoDI 1342.28, DoD Yellow Ribbon Reintegration Program (YRRP) which directs the Services to provide information and referral to applicable reintegration programs and services for

Service members and their families during the deployment cycle. For TVPO, Department of Defense Instruction

(DoDI) 1332.35, Transition Assistance for Military Personnel; Title 10 United States Code, Chapter 58- Benefits and Service for Members being Separated or Recently Separated; and, Veterans Opportunity to Work (VOW)to Hire

Heroes Act of 2011, guide the requirements of the program. For ESGR, these events are mandated by DoD

Instruction (DoDI) 1205.22, Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR).

2.2 CAP provides assistive technology and accommodations to support individuals with disabilities and wounded, ill and injured Service members throughout the Federal Government in accessing information and communication technology. CAP pursues this mission by being responsive to customer needs by providing appropriate and justified assistive technology, accommodations and support services to eligible customers.

2.3 ESGR is a national program whose mission is to develop and promote supportive work environments for

Service members in the Reserve Components through outreach, recognition, and educational opportunities that increase awareness of applicable laws, and resolve employment conflicts between the Service members and their employers. ESGR pursues this mission through recruiting and organizing volunteers to carry the employer support message at the local level. This requirement directly supports approximately 4,000 volunteers in the 50 states, the territories of Guam, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, and the District of Columbia who serve Service members from all Reserve Component, employers, and their families.

2.4 FVAP’s mission is to support the uniformed services, their families and overseas citizens with absentee voting. This is accomplished through stakeholder engagement, educational initiatives, and the removal of obstacles and challenges that hinder successful execution of multi-level election experiences.

2.5 ORP promotes the well-being of Reserve Component Service members, their families, and communities throughout the military life cycle. ORP has established itself as the premier resource for readiness, resiliency, and reintegration for the RC community through the coordination of programs and activities of the Military Departments to the extent that they relate to Reserve Component military families.

2.6 TVPO promotes, advances, and instills a culture of career-ready Service members throughout their Military

Life Cycle through career readiness planning and transition assistance policy and program oversight. The program enhances existing partnerships and develops new internal and external ones to leverage the capabilities of DoD and these partners to create an environment for a seamless transition for career-ready Service members.

30 day phase-out period prior to the designated contract completion date. During this period, the incumbent

Contractor shall make available to the incoming Contractor personnel, a representative who is versed in the operation and the functions to be performed. Inventories of DPFSC supplied material shall be conducted jointly with the COR or designated government representative, the incoming contractor, and the incumbent Contractor.
