PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS)

FOR

External Evaluation (EXEVAL) Training Support Services Missouri Army National Guard (MOARNG), Homeland Response Force (HRF)

1.0 General: This is a non-personal services contract to provide Missouri HRF Region VII – External Evaluation 2024 (EXEVAL24) Crisis City contractor support for SCVS reset. The Government will 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 Scope: The contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, tools, materials, supervision, and quality control necessary, except as specified in Paragraph 3.0 as Government Furnished, to perform SCVS Reset Services at Crisis City KS, as defined in this PWS. Contractor personnel assigned to this contract shall possess the skills and expertise necessary to perform the requirements in this PWS.

1.1.1 Objectives: This PWS establishes performance requirements for contractor tasks necessary to reset SCVS. These SCVS were built to be realistic, challenging, and maintainable, and to provide skill lanes required to conduct National Guard (NG) CBRNE Response Enterprise (CRE) training as identified in the Training and Evaluation Outlines/CATS. The training venues provide strategic and tactical challenges of such complexity that repetitiveness does not breed familiarity with the training prop and training lanes. The SCVS is of sufficient size and complexity to keep the Search and Extraction (S&E) teams training in a realistic condition and environment, so individuals gain valuable experience and expertise working on a simulated "real world" structural collapse.

1.2 Background: In conjunction with the National Guard Bureau (NGB), Missouri HRF Region VII is tasked to develop and support regional training and exercise activities aimed at enhancing domestic contingency readiness. Missouri HRF Region VII ensures these functions are integrated and complementary where appropriate. NGB uses Structural Collapse Simulators (SCS) to simulate the collapsed state of buildings due to a natural disaster or a domestic terrorism event. The use of these simulator venues supports regional training and exercises to enhance domestic contingency preparedness exercises and evaluations of CBRNE Enhanced Response Force Package (CERFP), Homeland Response Force (HRF) and other CBRNE response capabilities. A SCVS is a location where one or more SCS are used to simulate the collapsed state of buildings.

1.3 Period of Performance (PoP): The POP for this requirement will be:

• Post Award Kick-Off Meeting: TBD (Approximately 10 days after contract award)

• Phase-In Period: TBD (Preparation for Contract Performance)

• Contract Period: 15 July 2024 - 19 July 2024

• EXEVAL24 Crisis City After Action Review: TBD

2.0 Definitions and Acronyms:

2.1 Definitions:

2.1.1 Breaching and Breaking: The most dangerous skill to perform in a collapse condition as it is the most likely to initiate, by battering a broken building, a secondary collapse. Typically done by jack hammering on concrete to make a hold to make entry to break down an object. Atypically, as carefully as possible, widen any existing opening to allow access to responders and entrapped victims.

2.1.2 Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and Explosives (CBRNE) Enhanced Response Force Packages (CERFP): The CERFP teams and WMD-CSTs provide a phased capability; WMD-CSTs detect and identify CBRNE agents/substances, assess the effects and advise the local authorities on managing the effects of the attack. The WMD-CSTs also assist with requests for other forces. The CERFP teams locate and extract victims from a contaminated environment, perform mass patient/casualty decontamination, and provide treatment as necessary to stabilize patients for evacuation. The teams are specially trained to respond to a weapons-of-mass-destruction incident. The WMD-CSTs are dedicated units of National Guard personnel on active duty, whereas the CERFPs are comprised of existing National Guard units in traditional reserve status. They can be mobilized in state active duty, Title 32, or Title 10 status. Each CERFP can be ready to deploy to an incident site within six hours of notification of a CBRNE or WMD incident.

2.1.3 Confined Space: A space that is large enough and so configured that an employee can bodily enter and perform assigned work; has limited or restricted means for entry or exit (for example, tanks, vessels, silos, storage bins, hoppers, vaults, and pits); and is not designed for continuous employee occupancy. Typically, confined space entry training is to ensure clean air is inside a confined space. The removal of victims in a "permitted space" is what most training covers. Atypically, in a collapse there is no permit, no attendant or anyway to follow the prescribed guidelines.

2.1.4 Contractor: A supplier or vendor awarded a contract to provide specific supplies or service to the Government. The term used in this contract refers to the prime.

2.1.5 Contract Manager: A person delegated to ensure performance of the contract. The name of this person and an alternate who shall act for the contractor shall be designated in writing to the Contracting Officer. The CM or alternate shall have full authority to act for the contractor on all contract matters relating to daily operation of this contract.

2.1.6 Defective Service: A service output that does not meet the standard of performance associated with the PWS.

2.1.7 Deliverable: Anything that can be physically delivered and includes non-manufactured things such as meeting minutes or reports.

2.1.8 Dual Status Command: Dual status command allows one commander to command both federal (Title 10) and state forces (National Guard in Title 32 and/or State Active-Duty status) with the consent of a governor and the authorization of the president. This centralized command and control construct provides both the federal and state chains of command with a common operating picture through the eyes of the DSC. It also enables the DSC to maximize his or her federal and state capabilities, as well as facilitate unity of effort from all assigned forces.

2.1.9 Homeland Response Force: Composed of approximately 310 personnel, encapsulates lifesaving capabilities including Search and Extraction, Decontamination, Emergency Medical, Security, and Command and Control (C2). Each HRF will be staffed with Army National Guard Soldiers and Air National Guard Airmen. HRFs provide a scalable capability to bridge a gap between initial National Guard (NG) response and Title 10 capabilities.

2.1.10 Key Personnel: Contractor personnel that are evaluated in a source selection process and that may be required to be used in the performance of a contract by the PWS. When key personnel are used as an evaluation factor in best value procurement, an offer can be rejected if it does not have a firm commitment from the persons that are listed in the proposal.

2.1.11 Lifting and Hauling: The term hauling implies that rigging equipment is used to move a heavy object. Typically moving a heavy object with technology. Atypically, to use what is in the surrounding area without returning to a cache for technology.

2.1.12 Physical Security: Actions that prevent the loss or damage of Government property.

2.1.13 Quality Assurance: The Government procedures to verify that services being performed by the Contractor are performed according to acceptable standards.

2.1.14 Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP): An organized written document specifying the surveillance methodology to be used for surveillance of contractor performance.

2.1.15 Quality Control: All necessary measures taken by the Contractor to ensure that the quality of an end product or service shall meet contract requirements.

2.1.16 Rubble Pile: informal term for Structural Collapse Venue Site.

2.1.17 Shoring: The goal of shoring is to stabilize the object that is causing an unacceptable risk to extractors. Stabilizing can be accomplished by other means such as tying back and cribbing, both are faster than shoring and require fewer materials.

2.1.18 Structural Collapse Simulator (SCS): A structure, tunnel or collapsed building, use to simulate a normal structure in a collapsed state due to either a natural disaster or a domestic terrorism event.

2.1.19 Structural Collapse Venue Site (SCVS): A physical location, as in a training area.

A site where there is one or more structures to simulate the collapsed state of buildings due to a natural disaster or a domestic terrorism event. SCVS is typically constructed of substantial material such as sea containers, concrete slabs, concrete tubes, and a multitude of concrete debris to simulate the collapse of a structure.

2.1.20 Subcontractor: One that enters into a contract with a prime contractor. The Government does not have privity of contract with the subcontractor.
