Section C - Description/Specifications/Statement of Work

Stewards of the Sea (SOTS) Public Outreach Performance Work Statement

1. Scope: U.S. Fleet Forces Command (USFF) requires that the project identified in this statement of work be non-severable. This issue requires immediate action in order to provide equipment and materials for Stewards of the Sea (SOTS) public outreach related to at-sea training and testing. The U.S. Navy's SOTS program was initialized in 2013 to help combat misinformation regarding the Navy's environmental impacts during at-sea training and testing. The SOTS branding is utilized to give the general public information on the Navy's environmental messaging concerning at-sea training and testing activities. Providing the public with this valuable information assists in less issues during the permitting process for the training and testing activities.

2. Stewie Mascot Costume Design Specifications: Stewie is the Navy's environmental mascot and is a representation of a (green) sea turtle with the globe displayed on his back shell. The design for replacement STEWIE mascot outfits requires development and two new exterior suites need to be purchased. Information on requirements for the development of new STEWIE mascot outfits are:

a. All the design features must be owned or capable of being obtained by the U.S. Navy and not under a copyright by another entity.

b. Designed to represent the look, established in May 2023, of STEWIE as displayed in the graphic titled Stewie- Full-Final(2023May) .png.

c. To match official Navy colors, the front is Navy blue with gold edging, and his name "STEWIE" (prominently displayed on the right breast) in gold.

vii. Open area at mouth, covered by a black screen to block viewing into the head from outside (allows air flow)

viii. Head needs to provide the wearer with enough visibility so that they can see where they are walking

ix. White hat, in the likeness of a Navy Sailor's Dixie cup, attached to the top, to match the image

1. Stewards of the Sea(R) logo in full color, sewn on as an embroidered patch, centered on the front of the Dixie cup

2. Size of SoTS logo should match ratio of Stewie's 2023 version design (diameter of logo is approximately 75% of the distance from the bottom to the top of the brim on the Dixie cup), centered top and bottom of the front facing hat's brim, and centered above Stewie's face

x. Several small holes, to be unseen, in the head near the top, outside the area covered by the white hat, so as not to reduce the strength of the structure, but to allow for some heat to escape; to be covered by exterior fabric.

xi. Small, lightweight, internal mounted fan in the head. Fan should be situated to provide the most efficient air flow through the head-piece.

1. Need to have easy access to the fan's power switch

2. Need to have easy access to the fan's battery compartment for replacing batteries

3. If fan has internal rechargeable batteries, the power port must be easily accessible and compatible with using a 115-volt U.S. standard plug

xii. Inside: a one size fits all, helmet, with cushions for wearers head, securely fastened to the inside

1. Internal helmet height adjustable up and down for 2 inches.

2. Internal helmet needs to have multiple holes in the sides and top to allow heat to escape from wearer's head.

xiii. Straps to hold the head peace on while wearer moves around so it does not slip off the wearer's head. The straps need to be adjustable for different sized individuals, comfortable, and easily used by the wearer.

g. Shell:

a. Task 1. Create graphic layout for and purchase two retractable informational rollup graphics.

i. The first task will be for replacing SOTS display portable retractable banners. The final layout and information should be done in accordance with the SOTS branding guide, utilizing the SOTS brand, and look similar to the current versions of these items.

The types of photos for the backdrop will correlate and correspond with the information on the backdrop.

The information to be used is on the titled "SOTS_Retractables(2019v)_PWP_ MarineLifeProtect.jpg". If possible, it should be developed utilizing the same text and photos used for the Shipboard Plastic Processing portable retractable banner developed in Task 1.

iii. Information for the graphic is as follows:

1. Made of sturdy material to be useable and for outdoor use

2. Landscape layout with dimensions of approximately 8 foot long by 6 foot high, plus or minus 1 foot on either dimension (7-9ft L x 5-7ft H)

Due to the recent name change of the geographical area formally known as the Gulf of Mexico the MMIDs has been updated, changing the title verbiage from Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America.

These sheets are very popular and need to be purchased in a large quantity for the SOTS inventory to support the FY26 SOTS scheduled events, which are a part of the U.S. Navy and Nation's 250th anniversary celebration events.

The requirements for purchasing these items is a follows:
