PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

2d Marine Division Survivable Conventional Force Requirements and Technical Analysis of Expeditionary and Combat Operations for Commanding General, 2d Marine Division (2d MarDiv)

BACKGROUND. The objective of this PWS is to conduct technical research and analysis of force sustainment, training, and integration with other Service, Joint, Agency, and Coalition forces. This analysis also includes the development of recommendations in order to enhance the survivability of the conventional force (2d MarDiv). The specific tasks described below delineate activities in the context of vulnerability identification, mitigation, and the subsequent increase to survivability of 2d MarDiv personnel and equipment. The tasks expressed in this PWS support the enhanced survivability of the warfighter. The Contractor shall provide reports, briefs, documents, presentations, continuity and crisis action planning, feasibility studies, Mission Assurance (MA) assessments, and recommended plans to 2d MarDiv.

In the execution of this PWS, the Contractor shall work with entities/stakeholders in addition to 2d MarDiv including the following: II Marine Expeditionary Force (II MEF), 2d Marine Logistics Group (2d MLG), 2d Marine

Aircraft Wing (2d MAW), 2d Marine Expeditionary Brigade (2d MEB), and 2d MarDiv Major Subordinate

Elements (MSE).

1.0 General Guidance.

2.1 The Contracting Officer Representative (COR) will work with the Contractor pursuant to the scope of the tasks defined in the PWS. The COR is not authorized to direct the Contractor, or take any actions that would change the contract or commit the Government in any way.

2.2 CONTRACTOR'S UNAUTHORIZED WORK PERFORMANCE. The Contractor shall not perform work that deviates from contract requirements and specifications. If the Contractor deviates from contract requirements and specifications without approval of the CONTRACT ADMINISTRATOR and/or the CONTRACTING OFFICER, such deviation shall be at the risk of the Contractor and any cost related thereto shall be borne by the Contractor.

2.3 The Contractor shall submit Monthly Status Report (MSR), and additional reports as required by the

Government. At the onset of a project, the Government will provide a detailed requirement. The Contractor shall produce a schedule in the MSR that outlines the steps to take and a timeline to completion. Upon acceptance and approval by the Government, the Contractor shall meet the schedule and forecasted delivery date of all deliverables by taking all reasonable measures to fulfill the requirement. The Contractor will provide the COR an annual summary of analysis and recommendations related to background, objectives, assumptions, and specific results in the form of a Final Technical Report (FTR) prior to the expiration of the Period of Performance (PoP).

3.0 Tasks. The Contractor will perform the following tasks, associated deliverables and will provide monthly status reports on each task. A listing of each task and deliverable is provided in Table 3-1. Deliverable formats with either be in Contractor format, or Government format. The Government will determine the format on a task-by-task basis.

3.1 Strategic and Long-Range Planning. This task, and associated sub-tasks, involves research, analysis and the development of recommendations and reports regarding 2d MarDiv capabilities with the demands of theater and global campaign plans as published by Marine Components and current National Military Strategic guidance.

3.1.1 Conduct vulnerability analysis of 2d MarDiv aligned areas of operations and develop reports, recommended actions, and/or input to Operational Plans (OPLANs). Ensure analysis and recommended actions describe reconciliation of 2d MarDiv capabilities with the demands of theater and global campaign plans as published by

Marine Components and current National Military Strategic guidance. Prepare these documents to be of sufficient caliber, as determined by the G-3 staff, to facilitate executive level decision making through the four-star level.

These documents shall include Red Team and Alternative Analysis methodologies which support Commanding

General (CG) decision making by providing alternative Courses of Action (COAs) and perspectives, and by identifying overlooked opportunities and proposing alternatives to mitigate risk and associated fiscal requirements.

This analytical support to 2d MarDiv senior executives will prepare them for Service senior executive decision making bodies such as the Ground Board, Executive Off-Site, and General Officer Summit. Conduct analysis and develop recommendations regarding future plans methodologies and processes to enhance plans product quality for the 2d MarDiv G3. Develop and deliver tailored training to 2d MarDiv Current Operations Future Operations/Plans, and Training to provide them with key critical thinking and operational analysis skills to enhance their ability to inform the commander with operational planning products.

3.1.2 Conduct analysis and develop recommended conventional force survivability- and lethality-enhancing concepts, capabilities, technologies, and solutions. Analyze strategic and long-range plans and operational concepts regarding 2d MarDiv employment and develop analysis and reports to improve plans, concepts, and fiscal assessment for an overall Division Development Program. Provide recommendations to 2d MarDiv regarding effectively balancing operational requirements against available and limited resources by analyzing the impact of budget, material readiness, and manpower availability against necessary training to enhance survivability and complete all Mission Essential Tasks (METs). This analysis will increase efficiency of training and employment, thereby maximizing survivability of forces once deployed. Identify emerging Science and Technology innovations and any survivability technology infusion issues while analyzing the increase in functional capabilities to the military end user provided by the underlying technology. Provide analysis of the integration of existing and future

Live-Virtual-Constructive Training Environment (LVC-TE) initiatives. These initiatives can enhance and augment live training as well as provide efficient means to maintain readiness and survivability in a fiscally austere environment.

3.1.3 Conduct functional analyses and develop products that mitigate vulnerabilities. Products shall include reports that detail prototype technologies recommendations regarding the execution of 2d MarDiv operational planning, effectiveness, and readiness, which align to Theater campaign plans and joint exercises, various contingency plans, Operational Plans, Marine Corps Force Management Plan, and II MEF Annual Training Guidance and the 2d

MarDiv Campaign Plan. Develop these products according to Marine Corps Planning Process Doctrine; events and milestones shall be captured in 2d MarDiv Training and Exercise Employment Plans (TEEP), which best posture 2d

MarDiv for sustained warfighting readiness, enhanced survivability, and improved mission accomplishment and also published in a quarterly Fragmentary Order.

3.1.4 Conduct analysis and develop recommendations regarding 2d MarDiv aligning its efforts to Man, Train, and

Equip its forces according to Headquarters Marine Corps (HQMC) and Higher Headquarters (HHQ) requirements balanced against current capabilities and readiness of the units sourced against these requirements. Develop survivability and vulnerability-based recommendations to conventional force feasibility which provide 2d MarDiv decision makers with responsive and accurate insight into key readiness elements such as personnel, supply, readiness and training. These recommendations, which support rapid deployment, are critical to combat effectiveness and will ultimately minimize the Operating Forces (OPFOR) mission.

3.2 Exercise Analysis. This task, and associated sub-tasks, involves research, analysis and the development of recommendations and reports regarding 2d MarDiv exercise requirements.

3.2.1 Conduct survivability and lethality related technical and logistical analysis and recommendations during the

Joint Exercise Life Cycle (JELC) and for the exercise life cycle (ELC) of non-Joint exercises, to achieve mission rehearsal objectives in accordance with OPLANs. These recommendations shall include recommended Plan of

Action and Milestones (POA&M), Standard Operating Procedures (SOP), and Logistics Briefs in Support of

Exercises.
