1 INTRODUCTION
BACKGROUND 1.1
The Marine Corps has fielded and improved a host of Command, Control, Communications, Computer, and Intelligence (C4I) systems and networks that have become essential to modern warfighting, whether executing security cooperation, counter insurgency, or humanitarian operations.
Because many C4I systems were fielded without fully trained Marines to successfully and continuously accomplish the Command and Control (C2) mission, Marine Corps Tactical Systems Support Activity (MCTSSA) provided support for those systems. This effort also filled the gap of technical expertise, where a Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) did not exist or MOS training was limited or not available.
MCTSSA supported programmed/fielded C4I systems where business case analysis indicated a centralized support process as the preferred alternative, and systems developed in response to an Urgent Unfunded
Needs Statement (UUNS) that were delivered without organic support.
Because MCTSSA provided effective and efficient support, many Marine
Corps programs of record chose to reduce reliance on program/specific
Field Service Representatives (FSRs) and support C4I systems/applications through MCTSSA and define that support in the
Life Cycle Sustainment Plan.
In response to the growing need for C4I Tactical Systems Support
(TSS), MCTSSA established the Operational Forces Support (OFS) group to provide critical, highly specialized interoperability and integration support. OFS includes over-the-shoulder training and troubleshooting for multiple fielded C4I systems and associated networks for in garrison and deployed Marines. Additionally, OFS provides communication between the operating forces and the Marine
Corps Systems Command (MARCORSYSCOM) Program Managers and Program
Executive Offices to address system performance and sustainment issues for fielded systems, resulting in problem resolution and engineering change opportunities.
OFS consists of the Operating Forces Tactical Systems Support Center
(OFTSSC), a help desk staffed by an integrated team of Marines, civil servants, and TSS Contractors available 24 hours a day, Contractors strategically embedded with Marine units worldwide, and highly trained teams deployed from OFTSSC to support various training exercises and contingency operations. OFS provides technical systems expertise for troubleshooting and issue resolution, tactical communications network analysis and diagnostics, and fielded C4I system setup, maintenance, system engineering, technical support, configuration management, and over-the-shoulder training.
Support is provided to Marine Corps units, deployed and in garrison, preparing for and participating in major exercises, to include joint and coalition events, and special purpose missions: Examples include:
the Weapons and Tactics Instructor course, Special Purpose Marine Air-
Ground Task Force (SPMAGTF) expeditionary operations, Dawn Blitz, Island Viper, Marine Expeditionary Unit deployments and Deploying
Group System Integration Testing, and other events in the Continental
United States (CONUS) and Outside CONUS (OCONUS).
OFTSSC provides escalating levels of technical support to operating forces in CONUS and OCONUS.
The three levels of support include:
Tier 1: C4I systems support is provided by personnel who resolve issues in real-time utilizing the OFTSSC online knowledge repository or resolving basic requests for system software, password resets, and account creation.
Tier 2: OFTSSC subject matter expert (SME) personnel, with significant knowledge and experience with specified fielded C4I systems, are consulted to resolve an issue.
Tier 3: MCTSSA SMEs outside of OFTSSC (typically experienced C4I systems and applications engineers) are consulted. If necessary, issues are transferred to a MARCORSYSCOM program office or the
C4I system developer or integrator for resolution.
OFS provides the Marine Corps the flexibility to meet the operating forces C4I technical needs at a high level of performance. OFS works in collaboration with other technical and field service engineering support contracts and Contractors maintained by ongoing programs and systems within the Marine Corps and other Department of Defense (DoD) agencies, such as Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center Atlantic (SSC
Atlantic) and Naval Surface Warfare Center Crane. These efforts are coordinated by OFS at MCTSSA and the program managers at MARCORSYSCOM.
SCOPE 1.2
This Performance Work Statement (PWS) defines the non-personal technical service support efforts required by MCTSSA TSS to meet the operating forces technical support requirements for fielded C4I systems. Support under this effort includes, but is not limited to;
11 hours per day (0630 to 1730), five days a week (Monday through
Friday) at the MCTSSA OFTSSC; full time on-site support of Marine
Corps units worldwide, contingency operations support, training exercise support, and over-the-shoulder training. Additionally, the successful Offeror may be required to provide shift work and on-call support at OFTSSC during off hours (1730 to 0630 Monday through
Friday) and 24 hours a day Saturday and Sunday, based on operational requirements.
TSS support includes technical expertise and assistance with installation of fielded C4I systems, troubleshooting, issue resolution, tactical communications network analysis and diagnostics, maintenance, system engineering, technical support, configuration management, and over-the-shoulder training. Support is provided to
Marine Corps units that are deployed, in garrison, and preparing for or participating in major exercises including combat operations.
Examples include: SPMAGTF expeditionary operations, I Marine
Expeditionary Force (MEF) Amphibious Exercise, and Cobra Gold; Marine
Expeditionary Unit (MEU) deployments and Deploying Group System
Integration Testing, and other events in CONUS and OCONUS.
The primary objective of this service is to provide technical support to MCTSSA OFTSSC and the operating forces worldwide with continuous support of fielded tactical C4I programs of record to ensure that
Marines can successfully set up and operate fielded C4I tactical systems. Table 3-1 and Table 3-2 list the systems, units, and organizations supported under this PWS.
