CLAUSES INCORPORATED BY FULL TEXT

Performance Work Statement

(Genealogical Support Services)

1. Background

The Headquarters Marine Corps Casualty Section (MFPC), Military Personnel Services Branch, Manpower, and Reserve Affairs (M&RA) has a requirement to obtain non-personal professional services for a certified Genealogist.

The requirement is for the technical expertise of the certified Genealogist to locate family members of Marines unaccounted for from past wars.

American service members from previous wars who did not return home alive or whose remains were not recovered are considered “unaccounted for.” After a specific period of time, if no new information was received to confirm that these individuals were alive, a Presumptive Finding of Death (PFOD) was issued by the appropriate Service Secretary declaring them deceased, even if remains were not recovered. The Marine Corps has over 3800 Marines that were lost in military operations in World War II, Korea, Vietnam, and the Cold War. Of the over 3800, the Marine Corps has been unable to locate family members of approximately 2849. The Marine Corps is often tasked with priority requests to locate living descendants of unaccounted for Marines from past conflicts when the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency (DPAA) believes they have recovered remains or have remains of unaccounted Marines in their Identification Laboratory. The skills of a professional certified genealogist are required to complete this mission.

2. Scope

The Contractor shall be required to provide the labor, supplies, materials, and facilities to assist the Casualty Section in locating family members of over 2700 Marines previously unaccounted for from World War II, approximately 149 Marines unaccounted for from the Vietnam War and the Korean War, and to locate family members of Marines previously recovered and identified from the Vietnam War, the Korean War and the Cold War when additional remains are recovered and identified.

The Performance Work Statement (PWS) is for the non-personal services for a certified Genealogist for the procurement and delivery of One Hundred fifty (150) cases. The Casualty Section is responsible for identifying relatives of Marines unaccounted for from past wars to donate a Family Reference Sample (FRS) for Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) testing.

3.0 Tasks and Specifications:

The contractor shall be responsible for locating and providing contact information for the closest living family member. The objective of this requirement is to locate and provide contact information of the closest living family member, referred to as the “Primary Next of Kin” per Department of Defense Instruction 1300.18 (Personnel Casualty Matters, Policies and Procedures). Additionally, provide contact information on living DNA eligible family members for approximately 2700 Marines unaccounted for from World War II and approximately 149 Marines unaccounted for from the Vietnam War, the Korean War and the Cold War, for the purpose of collecting Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), paternal (Y-DNA), and autosomal / nuclear (auDNA - children of service member) for FRS comparisons, and to locate family members of Marines previously recovered and identified from the Vietnam War, the Korean War, the Cold War, and World War II when additional remains are recovered and identified, in accordance with the Performance Work Statement.

The expectation is that the contractor will establish direct contact with any relatives of the deceased

Marines to fulfill the requirements of this contract. Below are specific steps for potential relative/DNA donor contact:

1. The contractor shall contact the potential relative/DNA donor via phone and email (if available) to confirm relationship to the decedent on each case.

2. The contractor shall spend no more than one (1) business day, per case, to determine the complexity and potential amount of time required for each case. When it is determined that the level of complexity in any given case will require more than one (1) business day to complete, due to adoption, foster care, etc., the Contractor must notify the Casualty Section representative for discussion and guidance.

3. If within 24 hours of the initial attempt to establish contact the potential relative /DNA donor is not responsive, the contractor will execute a total of two (2) more attempts to contact, not exceeding a total of three (3) attempts within a 72 hour, or three (3) business day period. At no time will the contractor send more than one email or leave more than one phone message in one (1) business day.

4. If the potential relative/DNA donor does not respond within 72 hours, or three (3) business days of the last attempt, the contractor may move-on to the next potential relative/DNA donor found on the genealogy reportIf the contractor has any questions or requires guidance, the contractor shall contact the Government representative (Name will be provided at award).

5. The DPAA and the Armed Forces Medical Examiner have requested maternal relatives be located for (mtDNA) DNA analysis and paternal relatives be located for contact, Y chromosome (YSTR) DNA analysis and Nuclear (Autosomal) (au-STR) DNA analysis.

Below, are specific tasks in specific order that will be required:

3.1 The contractor shall first identify the Marine’s closest living family member, referred to as the “Primary Next of Kin” per Department of Defense Instruction 1300.18 (Personnel Casualty Matters, Policies and Procedures). Then, proceed as follows:

3.2 The contractor shall identify, if feasible, at least two maternal (mtDNA) DNA eligible relatives of the Marine. Continue to Task 3.3.

3.3 The contractor shall identify, if feasible, at least two paternal (Y-DNA) DNA eligible relatives of the Marine. Continue to Task 3.4

3.4 The contactor shall identify, if feasible, at least two nuclear / autosomal (auDNA) DNA eligible relatives of the Marine (service-member’s children if applicable).

3.5 The contractor shall report all potential Next of Kin (NOK) found as a result of the genealogy search, including any whose relationship is not DNA eligible (e.g., relationship is that of a paternal niece). The contractor shall report the NOK’s contact information (to include name, address, phone number, email, etc.) to MFPC within 7-10 days of receipt of the request from MFPC, once Contractor obtains verbal authorization from NOK. Information attained from the contractor must result in a successful contact with a NOK 90% of the time.

3.6 Should attempts to find the Marine’s NOK be unsuccessful, the contractor shall inform MFPC. Based on information provided, MFPC will make a case status determination.
