PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS)

for

DoD CIO Support Services for the DoD Positioning, Navigation and Timing Enterprise (PNT Enterprise)

March 15, 2018

1.0 INTRODUCTION

1.1 DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES: The Office of the Department of Defense (DoD) Chief Information Officer (CIO) requires management, programmatic and systems engineering support services for the DoD Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) Enterprise, including national security, civil, commercial, and international cooperative aspects involved in acquisition, deployment/fielding, and operation of all DoD GPS, PNT and Navwar systems. The contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and nonpersonal services necessary to perform technical and analytical services as defined in this Performance Work Statement at the contractor’s office location in the Washington, DC metropolitan area and at US Government locations of the C4&IIC Directorate of the Office of the DoD CIO.

1.2 BACKGROUND: The DoD Global Positioning System (GPS) has been operational for over 20 years and is well established as a military utility fulfilling a multitude of requirements as the predominant PNT source for the warfighter. Recently, awareness has been growing among government and industry leaders regarding the value of PNT for global economic and national security sectors. This awareness is primarily based upon the ubiquitous presence of GPS as a single source delivery system for PNT information. However, it has shifted what was once a GPS-centric focus to what is now being referred to as the PNT Enterprise. As a dual-use system, DoD-provided GPS supports all sectors with its separate military and civil services.

Efforts to address GPS vulnerabilities within the broader PNT Enterprise will require methods and policies applicable in classified military and open public/commercial sectors. Further, the rapid emergence and evolution of cyber threats and the explosive growth in use of autonomous platforms place ever-changing demands on both preservation and control of capabilities derived from the PNT Enterprise.

DoD CIO is responsible for DoD PNT (including radio navigation systems) policy oversight and planning, for DoD participation in Federal PNT and radio navigation system policy development and planning and for GPS and Navigation Warfare (Navwar) policy, program oversight and planning. Both Congressional legislation and Presidential directives have mandated that the proliferation of federally provided radio navigation systems be reduced and that the DoD-provided GPS be promoted as both a national and international standard, dual-use (military and civil) PNT system. These same mandates also direct the DoD to ensure the protection of GPS for use by US and coalition allies, while preventing adversary use of civil GPS (or like systems) and not unduly impacting peaceful use of civil GPS (or like systems) outside a theater of operations. Further, recent Congressional legislation has focused on ensuring complements to GPS are also employed in the event GPS reception is disrupted by natural or hostile interference. In carrying out the congressional and presidential direction, CIO is responsible for ensuring the DoD addresses a number of GPS, PNT and Navwar acquisition, integration, sustainment, and modernization challenges before the full benefits envisioned for

GPS and other DoD PNT systems can be realized. To ensure that the proper expertise and planning are focused on these key GPS and Navwar issues as well as those associated with other DoD PNT/radio navigation systems, the DoD conducts ongoing assessments, analyses, and evaluations supporting the broad scope of program and system oversight activities as well as policy development and planning.

1.3 SCOPE: This PWS addresses core support to be provided to the DoD CIO. Core support will consist of a broad range of programmatic, research and system engineering support, technical analyses, assessments and policy formulation support with respect to the research, development, acquisition, procurement, deployment/fielding, and operation of all DoD GPS, PNT and Navwar systems including national security, civil, commercial, and international cooperative aspects of the DoD PNT Enterprise.
