PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

LOGISTICS COMBAT ELEMENT (LCE) DIVISION

UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS MUNITIONS REQUIREMENTS PROCESS (MCMRP)

CLASS V (W)

1. BACKGROUND

1.1. The United States Marine Corps (USMC), as required by the Office of the Secretary of Defense

(OSD), quantifies munitions requirements in accordance with DoD Instruction 3000.04, Department of

Defense Munitions Requirements Process (DoD MRP). DoD Instruction 3000.04 establishes policy, assigns responsibilities, and prescribes procedures for generating, developing, and disseminating DoD

MRP products. It is DoD policy to establish a Total Munitions Requirement (TMR), with guidance from

Secretary of Defense Memorandum, "Guidance for the Development of the Force (GDF)", Secretary of

Defense Memorandum, "Guidance for the Employment of the Force (GEF)", and Under Secretary of

Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics (USD (AT&L)) Memorandum, "DoD MRP

Implementation Guidance (DoD MRP IG)" that arm military forces to perform their assigned military missions. Additionally, it is incumbent upon the Services to ensure that munitions requirements developed are visible, accessible, and understandable to the rest of the Department (except where limited by law, policy, or security classification).

1.2. The USMC, through the Marine Corps Munitions Requirements Process (MCMRP), determines the

USMC's munitions inventory requirements. The purpose of the MCMRP process is to develop Class

V(W) munitions requirements for USMC ground forces in accordance with the DoD MRP. The requirements are used to develop munitions procurement and maintenance plans and justification of budget requests in the Service’s Planning, Programming, Budgeting and Execution process (PPBE).

1.3. The MCMRP methodology is compliant with the DoD MRP, which currently defines the TMR as the sum of the War Reserve Munitions Requirement (WRMR) and the testing and training requirement

(TTR). The DoD MRP defines the WRMR as the sum of the global floor (GF) and strategic readiness requirement (SRR). GF consists of munitions needed to deter and complete combat operations per the

DoD MRP and National Defense Strategy (NDS). SRR consists of additional munitions for treaties or statutory obligations to allies. TTR consists of munitions needed to train the force and test weapon systems. The elements that make up the TMR may change as DoD MRP guidance evolves.

1.4. The requirements for munitions included in the MCMRP process are computed by the contractor under the purview of the Logistics Combat Element Division (LCED). Inputs include scenario descriptions, unit densities, system fielding plans, force employments, munition inventories, weapon performance, targets descriptions, target assignments, and mission parameters. Some of the requirements are threat-based and some are associated with supporting tasks. Threat-based MCMRP computations account for destroying the enemy threat allocated to the USMC (ground forces only). Munitions computations associated with supporting tasks sustain a specific number of days of combat and are generally the product of rounds per shooter per day, number of shooters, and number of days.

1.5. Computer models have been developed to assist in developing inventory requirements. Currently there are three over-arching computer models in the MCMRP modeling suite. They are the Class V(W)

WRMR Software System (WRMRSS), Ammunition Funding Analyzer (AFA), and the Requirements

Generator (ReqGen). The MCMRP Class V (W) modeling suite is operational on Personal Computers

(PC's) and includes a Graphical User Interface (GUI) to simplify use. These models contain over 300,000 lines of code in C, C#, VBA.

2. SCOPE

2.1. This Performance Work Statement (PWS) specifies the technical and program support required for the United States Marine Corps Munitions Requirements Process (MCMRP) Class V (W) in accordance with the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) and the Office of the Commandant of the Marine

Corps (CMC) guidance.

2.2. The scope of work required by this contract requires operation and sustainment of methods and resources to produce ammunitions requirements models, analysis and modification of the models, database development and management, validation, verification and possibly accreditation, data entry, requirements computation, assessment of results, documentation and on-call munitions requirements analysis to support the Logistics Combat Element Division (LCED), Capabilities Development

Directorate (CDD), Deputy Commandant Combat Development & Integration (DC CD&I) as authorized by Marine Corps Order (MCO) 8000.7A which delegates responsibility to LCED for the MCMRP Class

V (W) process.

3.1.3. The Contractor shall develop munitions requirements numbers (not Joint Capabilities Integration and Develop System requirements), gain access to numerous classified and unclassified systems/databases in accordance with mission requirements, and be familiar with USMC organizational structure, weapon systems, and munitions. The Contractor will be working closely with Ammunition

Integration Officer, LCED, CDD, DC CD&I in planning the MCMRP update cycle. The LCED will be a conduit to most organizations pull/push of data to support the MCMRP, but the Contractor may have to communicate with other organizations to obtain information and data, and to document justification for assumption and data changes. Primary examples include Operational Analysis Division and Total Force

Structure Division of CD&I for scenario data and force composition used in modeling, and Joint

Technical Coordination Group for Munitions Effectiveness to ensure integration of the Joint Munitions

Effectiveness Manual methods for munitions effectiveness estimates with the MCMRP computational methods.

3.1.4. MCMRP documentation regarding models, database and reports on POM requirements are the responsibility of the contractor. The documents published in support of the MCMRP are listed in paragraph 4 and are subject to change.

4. Tasks

The contractor shall provide munitions inventory requirements and overarching analysis with supporting justification to inform decision-making. The results will be utilized to assess program inventory objectives and priorities for munitions programs investment strategies and to support USMC programming. Documentation of this effort by the contractor will provide traceability for these results. In fulfilling the requirements specified herein, the services shall demand ingenuity, creativity, careful attention to detail, and sound study. Where appropriate, the Contractor shall provide recommendations to the Government on how to make the MCMRP process and products more meaningful and operationally relevant. The Contractor shall support all MCMRP POM cycles in progress during the period(s) of performance. Contractor must review and understand MCMRP requirements and instructions for each cycle. The procedures of execution within each of these cycles may be similar and overlapping yet could change drastically. The Contractor must be able to adapt to these changes.

4.1. Task 1: Analysis

4.1.1. The Contractor will be required to provide on-site support. This may consist of information exchange that warrants in-person meeting and participation in formal Ammunition Working Group events in accordance with MCMRP activities. On-site Support may include demonstrating the use of modeling tools such as the Requirements Generator, providing insight into modeling tools, methodologies, and sharing other relevant information as necessary.

4.1.2. The Contractor shall attend and support combatant command Phased Threat Distribution (PTD) working groups, which are held typically 1-3 per year. This requires in-depth knowledge and https://www.quantico.marines.mil/Info/Base-Access/ understanding of targets, weaponeering, target pairing, munitions capabilities and effects, and USMC capabilities. The Contractor shall ensure that threat data is entered into the models and a detailed analysis of the MRP threat allocations is used to prepare MRP change recommendations. Any discussions, issues, assumptions, methodology, and database changes related to the models shall be documented and taken for action if directed by the LCED. Additionally, when requested, the Contractor shall provide a PTD

Comparison that will compare two or more PTDs with summary narratives of changes.

4.1.3. The Contractor shall provide on-call support to the LCED and be prepared to support short-notice

MCMRP tasks, changes, updates, and surge during periods of high operational tempo.

4.1.4. Once all data is collected for the current MCMRP POM cycle, the Contractor shall make computations to develop ammunition requirements and prepare output reports. The Contractor shall deliver the reports described below as directed by LCED. Submission dates and reporting requirements for DoD MRP reports will be derived from Joint Staff and/or OSD guidance each cycle. Guidance can be from the current DoD MRP Instruction, Implementation Guidance, Executive Steering Group direction, and Joint Staff offices. Note that the report formats and data elements are subject to change at any time and the Contractor must be able to adapt.

4.1.4.1. Detailed TMR Report. There are multiple report formats for the TMR. This format is established by the LCED to support internal Marine Corps use. It includes a detailed accounting of all components of the TMR in order to promote understanding of modeling assumptions. The Contractor must be prepared to update the format of this report in response to evolving direction from LCED.

4.1.4.2. Summary TMR Report. This report displays the TMR at an unclassified level of detail. This format is established by the LCED to support internal Marine Corps use. Its primary use is for

POM/budget development and TMR promulgation.

4.1.4.3. DoD MRP Unconstrained Reports. These report formats are in accordance with applicable DoD

MRP guidance and include unconstrained munitions consumption and the TMR. Munitions consumption refers to the munitions required to defeat targets allocated to USMC ground forces by the DoD MRP. The results are from an unconstrained model run that removes financial constraints on munitions inventory or availability. The unconstrained TMR represents the desired mix of munitions and is the official source of munitions requirements. While a majority of the munitions in the unconstrained run are the most capable variants, some legacy munitions may be modeled on a case by cases basis as determined by the LCED.

4.1.4.4. DoD MRP Constrained Reports. These report formats are in accordance with applicable DoD

MRP guidance and include constrained munitions consumption and the Constrained Munitions

Assessment (CMA). The results are from a constrained model run that limits results to current inventory and the projected future inventories based on a specific budget. The purpose of the CMA is to support the development of the OSD-required Sufficiency Assessment, which is used to inform programmers and

DoD leaders during the POM deliberations. In the CMA, legacy munitions are modeled once primary munitions reach their inventory constraint.

4.1.4.5. DoD MRP Sufficiency Assessment (SA). The SA identifies changes in results between the unconstrained run and the constrained run, in terms of key metrics such as targets unable to be defeated due to insufficient munition inventories. Operational planners assess these metrics against their operational plans in order to prepare a munitions assessment. The Contractor shall deliver the SA no later than 30 days after completion of the TMR and CMA.

4.1.4.6. DoD MRP Munitions Inventory Report. This report format is in accordance with applicable DoD

MRP guidance. The current format includes projected munition inventories, projected gains to munition inventories, and projected losses to munition inventories.

4.1.4.7. Munitions Consumption Dashboard. This is an interactive spreadsheet (referred to as a

"dashboard") that displays a graphical representation of the data submitted in the DoD MRP consumption reports. It is used to analyze consumption data generated from multiple models runs. The report provides an overview, detailed kills, detailed expenditures, expenditures per kill, and summary worksheets.

4.1.4.8. Combat Planning Factor (CPF) Report. Combat planning factors are average expenditure rates that are derived from scenario modeling. The combat planning factor report identifies combat loads and expenditure rates for each relevant combination of weapon type and munition type. For each combination, the data is separated by ground combat element (GCE) and non-GCE and the rates are split into assault rates and sustain rates. The current format includes a section that groups the data by weapon type and a section that groups the data by munition type. The report also includes ancillary rates for applicable munitions.

4.1.4.9. CPF-Based Requirements Report. This report provides a detailed break out of the calculation of elements of the TMR that are based on CPFs, notional units, and a number of days of expenditures (such as LFORM and ACM). This report shall be provided as necessary. Contractor format is acceptable with concurrence of the LCED.

4.1.4.10. Scenario Requirements by Increment Reports. These reports provide munition requirements for modeled scenarios incrementally (typically in 10-day increments), which assists component commands and supporting establishments with conducting logistics supportability analyses. A summary version of the report lists requirements by munition type and increment, while a detailed version of the report lists requirements by munition type, increment, and force flow employment. These reports shall be provided as necessary. Contractor format is acceptable with concurrence of the LCED.

4.1.4.11. TMR Comparison Reports. These reports compare TMR quantities generated from multiple models runs. The format varies according to the level of detail requested. Comparisons that display more detail are classified while comparisons showing less detail are unclassified. The format can also vary according to purpose of the comparison - from simple numerical comparisons to interactive spreadsheets with graphical displays to detailed narratives that identify the reasons for changes to the TMR. Contractor format is acceptable with concurrence of the LCED.

4.1.4.12. Shortfall Calculator. This interactive report is a tool that aids LCED in making recommendations for changes to munitions funding. Current capabilities include calculating inventory projections, calculating funding shortfalls, charts that display projected requirements and inventories over a ten-year span, and other features to support the ability to conduct "what-if” drills for funding changes.

The contents and capabilities of the Shortfall Calculator change often, and the Contractor must be able to incorporate changes for new data and analytical requirements. The Contractor will update and provide the

Shortfall Calculator with each new TMR and as requested.

4.1.5. The Contractor shall submit a monthly progress report to the Contracting Officer’s Representative

(COR) no later than the tenth (10th) day of the following month for work accomplished from the first

(1st) through the final calendar day of the previous month. This report shall be provided in electronic media compatible with conventional MS Office application. The report shall include at a minimum the following information:

• Comparison of planned versus actual task order performance by PWS and WBS elements

• Task progress during the past month, plan for the coming month
