PERFOMANCE WORK STATEMENT

PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

Demonstration and Assessment Team Support Services

1.0 BACKGROUND

The Demonstration and Assessment Team (DAT) seeks to leverage Discovery, Investigation and Innovation (DI2) of Science and Technology (S&T) efforts to explore potential solution sets for existing and future warfighting capability gaps. The DAT assists the S&T community to identify, exploit, and enable war fighting solutions through leveraging the S&T communities and bridging/linking these efforts to warfighter identified capability gaps. The DAT seeks to bring the S&T community and warfighter together in an organized iterative fashion to help create effective solutions that meet warfighter requirements. The goal is to involve the warfighter from the beginning to end of the development cycle, to include the conception of an idea. Once synchronized, these potential solutions are subject to early and frequent experimentations, demonstrations, and assessments conducted within the operating forces, and the gathering of end user/war fighter feedback. Operational Force Integration and Engagement (OFI&E) process and Experimentation, Demonstration & Assessment (EDA) operations, enhance greater requirements definition for the technology developer through direct warfighter input and feedback. The OFI&E process simultaneously introduces new techniques or technologies to the warfighter, and further helps to ensure that a viable enabling capability is fielded to the operating forces at the end of the development cycle. The DAT seeks through the execution of the OFI&E process, the design of realistic EDA to facilitate and enhance S&T efforts through the warfighter’s view of operational effectiveness and operational suitability (military value) leading to enabling, vice restrictive, capabilities – faster.

3.6.7.4 Demonstration and Assessment Pre-event Documentation. The contractor shall assist in the development or modification of demonstration and assessment execution documentation for the conduct of demonstrations and assessments. The contractor shall ensure scenarios and test events support the ability to assess technologies; the technical capabilities, operational utility, effectiveness, and suitability. Demonstration and assessment documentation includes, but is not limited to, both planning and event execution documentation as reflected below:

Demonstration and Assessment Planning. The contractor shall provide technical and analytical support in all phases of supported activities. Phases include but are not limited to planning, execution and reporting of demonstrations and assessments. Support is required in the actual planning and execution of demonstrations and assessments;

oversight of demonstrations and assessments conducted by others; review, analysis, and reporting of demonstrations and assessments. The contractor shall support the development of assessment execution documents and data management and analyses plans, conduct of demonstrations and assessments, performance quick look and post assessment analyses, conduct of data reduction and reporting, and preparation of assessment summaries and reports (CDRL A004).

Planning Documentation. Planning Documentation, depending on the project being supported, may be called a Demonstration and Assessment Management Plan (DAMP), an Integrated Assessment Plan (IAP), or other appropriate title. Regardless of the document title, these documents are analogous to a Military Campaign Plan and are normally used if the particular project will have multiple assessment events (over 1-3 years) within the period of performance of the contract. Planning documentation will serve as the capstone document used by the program team for demonstration and assessment planning and identification of data collection requirements during specified events. The purpose of the document is to provide an over-arching framework and guidance for the conduct of the demonstrations and assessments for the program. Each specific demonstration and assessment evolution will be specifically conducted in accordance with the criteria and framework of the exercise and the data collection framework contained in this document (CDRL A004).

Each Planning Document will normally include, but not limited to, the below:

o Program Overview o Demonstration/Assessment Mission o Demonstration/Assessment Methodology

Critical Operational Issues Document Review results Scenarios, vignettes Concepts of employment and Tactics, Techniques and Procedures (TTPs).

o Field Execution Planning o Assessment Metrics

Demonstration/Assessment Execution Documents. Implementation of the Planning

Documents will be through a series of Demonstration / Assessment Execution Documents. Depending on the event, these Execution documents may be titled differently; e.g. Demonstration Execution Document (DED), Assessment Execution Document (AED), Letter of Instruction (LOI), etc. Regardless of the title, each execution document will describe an executable plan for collecting, analyzing, and reporting the assessment objectives and the specific metrics that will be used for a specific event. Each execution document will describe what will happen, when it will happen, where it will happen, who is responsible for making it happen, and how it will happen IAW CDRL A004.

Demonstration and Assessment Execution. The contractor shall provide coordination and execution support during rehearsals, warfighter/user training, prototypes fabrication and modifications, data collection, communication, and documenting lessons learned.

Demonstration and Assessment Reports. The contractor shall prepare After-Action

Reports that document the RDT&E effort and system performance results of the demonstration. Depending on the event, these reports may be titled differently: e.g., Technical Demonstrations, Quicklook, Limited Operational User Assessment (LOUA) and Operational User Assessment (OUA) Reports. Each report may include, but is not limited to: objective, approach, execution, data summaries, analysis, conclusions, and recommendations on the technology or improvement opportunities IAW (CDRL A001).
