PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS)

FOR TASK ORDER ONE (1)

Office of Cost Assessment and Program Evaluation (OSD-CAPE)

Enterprise Visibility and Management of Operating and Support Cost (EVAMOSC) May 20, 2020

General Information

1. GENERAL: This is a non-personnel services contract to provide Database Design, Implementation, Operation, and Data Platform Sustainment Services. 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.

1.1 Description of Services/Introduction: The contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, supplies, facilities, transportation, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and non-personnel services necessary to perform Database Design, Implementation, Operation, and Data Platform Sustainment Services as defined in this Performance Work Statement except for those items specified as government furnished property and services. The contractor shall perform to the standards in this contract.

1.2 Background: The mission of the Office of the Secretary of Defense Cost Assessment and Program Evaluation (OSD-CAPE) is to provide the Department of Defense (DoD) with timely, insightful and unbiased analysis on resource allocation and cost estimation problems to deliver the optimum portfolio of military capabilities through efficient and effective use of each taxpayer dollar. In achieving this mission, one of OSD-CAPE’s primary goals is to provide data driven insight into the costs of major acquisition programs. This detailed analysis enables responsible budgeting and proactive management decisions so that the Department can control cost and achieve savings. In recent years, the DoD has focused on understanding the costs incurred by weapons systems during the sustainment phase and underlying causes of these cost outcomes. However, despite renewed emphasis on controlling sustainment costs, the DoD lacks complete, accurate, and granular data on operating and support (O&S) costs for many major acquisition programs., including ground vehicles.

1.2.1 10 U.S. Code, Section 2337a (Guidance on Life-Cycle Management) assigns responsibility for “developing and maintaining a database on … actual operating and support costs for major weapons systems” to the Director, CAPE. While OSD-CAPE has historically administered its responsibility for O&S cost data via policy for Military Department data requirements, the enterprise O&S database required by Title 10 does not currently exist within the DoD. The lack of available O&S cost data has made it difficult to calculate sustainment costs for multiple systems, including ground vehicles. To address these deficiencies, OSD-CAPE will develop a data system to simultaneously address current O&S cost data deficiencies and its statutory requirement. The resulting Enterprise Visibility and Management of Operating and Support Costs (EVAMOSC) data system will address known issues with O&S cost data completeness, accuracy, granularity, and reporting frequency.

1.2.2 OSD-CAPE intends to develop and deploy the EVAMOSC data system in increments. This Performance Work Statement covers the tasks and objectives associated with EVAMOSC Task Order 1, which will aim to meet O&S cost data requirements for U.S. Army weapons systems during the base period.

1.3 Objective: The primary objective of this effort is to develop and deploy the EVAMOSC data platform to collect cost data on U.S. Army major weapons systems, while implementing a design and architecture that is scalable to include weapon systems across the DoD in future increments. The EVAMOSC data system will incorporate technologies for ingesting, aggregating, standardizing, visualizing, reporting, and securing a large amount of data (i.e., over 75 sources) from an array of systems currently serving multiple functional communities: financial management, logistics, maintenance, human resources, property, and acquisition. The primary challenge in this effort is development of the business rules and logic model required to map O&S cost data from the aforementioned disparate functional areas to individual Army weapon systems.

1.3.1 This effort will demonstrate an enhanced capability to aggregate and fuse multiple data sources to provide complete, accurate, and granular O&S cost profiles at a required frequency (monthly in most cases). This investment in O&S cost data infrastructure will improve the DoD’s ability to understand the costs associated with operating and sustaining major weapon systems, the quality of lifecycle cost estimates for future programs, and the capability to identify and manage root causes of O&S cost growth.

1.3.2 The EVAMOSC data platform and production environment will reside in an OSD-CAPE provided on Amazon GovCloud environment and will host the development and test environments necessary to produce O&S cost data profiles for major weapons systems. For the purposes of this document, the term “EVAMOSC data platform” applies to all Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) software and customized code deployed above the operating system in CAPE’s existing virtual computing environment. The EVAMOSC platform will then transmit, or otherwise make available for ingestion, these cost data profiles for production and publication on the OUSD (Comptroller) ADVANA platform. The ADVANA platform will host any public-facing applications to enable broader DoD community to access EVAMOSC data.

Furthermore, CAPE will use ADVANA’s “platform-as-a-service” capabilities to address all Authority-to- Operate (ATO) and user management requirements associated with exposing the published EVAMOSC data and associated applications to NIPR access. While the contractor is required to generate data to assist with security administration, authority to operate, and risk management framework processes, he will not be inherently responsible for execution of these functions for either the EVAMOSC or ADVANA platforms. The diagram below depicts the relationship between EVAMOSC and ADVANA.

1.4 Scope: The contractor shall perform Database Design, Implementation, Operation, and Data Platform Sustainment support, to include technical, administrative, and professional services, for the purpose of developing and implementing the OSD-CAPE EVAMOSC system.

1.5 Period of Performance: The period of performance shall be for one (1) Base Period of 12 months and four (4) 12-month option periods.

1.6 General Information:

1.6.1 Quality Control: The contractor shall develop and maintain an effective quality control program (QCP) to ensure services are performed in accordance with this PWS. The contractor shall develop and implement procedures to identify, prevent, and ensure non-recurrence of defective services. The contractor’s quality control program is the means by which he assures himself that his work complies with the requirements of the contract. The QCP shall be delivered via electronic mail within 30 days after contract award. Amendments/changes to the QCP shall be delivered to the task monitor (TM), COR and KO within three business days following any change (Deliverable: Quality Control Program).

1.6.2 Quality Assurance: The government shall evaluate the contractor’s performance under this contract in accordance with the Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan. This plan, developed by the Government, is primarily focused on what the Government must do to ensure that the contractor has performed in accordance with the performance standards. It defines how the performance standards will be applied, the frequency of surveillance, and the minimum acceptable defect rate(s).

5.4 EVAMOSC Data Acquisition and Preparation: This task, from the US Government’s perspective, is the most challenging aspect of the work required for EVAMOSC and represents the greatest value to OSD- CAPE and the DoD. This task focuses on acquiring and preparing data from DoD business systems in order to compile and present complete, accurate, and granular O&S cost profiles for major weapons systems. See Technical Exhibit 5 for a list of data sources. The objective is to develop and sustain data acquisition and business rule automation for O&S cost data reporting requirements and analytics. The Contractor shall generate EVAMOSC data from disparate Service business systems to produce complete O&S cost data profiles, as defined by the most recent version of the OSD-CAPE 2014 Operating and Support Cost Estimating Guide, for all Major Defense Acquisition Programs and any Type-Model-Series (TMS) or Mission-Description-Series (MDS) derivatives of the original programs (e.g., M1A2, M1A2SEP, M1A2SEPV3, etc.). See Technical Exhibit 5 6 for a list of US Army programs. The contractor shall work with DoD business systems owners from the Defense Agencies and Military Departments to determine what data is needed to complete an O&S cost data map for US Army major DoD weapons systems. Once the contractor determines the data owners and data elements required to provide the desired O&S cost data output for US Army weapon systems listed in Technical Exhibit 6, the contractor shall implement an automated ingest approach of data from each identified source system. The Contractor’s ingestion approach shall include the automation of business rules, quality checks, and the development and sustainment of memorandum of agreements and system interface agreements. EVAMOSC Task Order 1 will focus on U.S. Army weapons systems, and the contractor will be responsible for collecting and reporting cost data from Fiscal Years 2015 and beyond. To the maximum extent possible, the contractor will leverage congruencies between the data needs for US Army weapon systems and other Military Department weapon systems to enable concurrent development.
