Q&A

1. Question: Is on- base lodging available to the contractor, especially for OCONUS workshops?

Answer: On base lodging can be arranged for CONUS events if requested. All lodging and ground transportation for OCONUS events will be coordinated via PACFLT Fleet Training Coordinator as a group. OCONUS on base lodging is preferred and will be used where available; if unavailable, hotels nearby within US Gov’t per-diem rates will be utilized.

2. Question: Will the contractor have access to the dining or grocery facilities during the OCONUS assignments?

Answer: Yes; temporary orders authorizing use of the commissary and exchange will be issued for OCONUS events.

3. Question: For assignments in Japan and South Korea, will the contractor have access to transportation by the installation? For instance, in South Korea and Japan, there are buses that travel between installations. This would be helpful in cases where the installations are in close proximity to each other. For example Busan and Chinhae.

Answer: All OCONUS ground transportation will be coordinated for the group via the PACFLT Fleet Training Coordinator.

This is typically in the form of van rentals, funded by COMPACFLT or airport shuttle services sponsored by the military and may incur a small individual fee.

4. Question: Upon arriving at the airport in Japan and South Korea, will the contractor be able to utilize transportation provided by the USO to be transported to the military installation?

Answer: All OCONUS ground transportation will be coordinated for the group via the COMPACFLT Fleet Training Coordinator. This is typically in the form of van rentals, funded by COMPACFLT or airport shuttle services sponsored by the military and may incur a small individual fee.

5. Question: Will the contracting officer at each installation be our sponsor?

Answer: All contractor logistics will be coordinated via the PACFLT Training Coordinator who will coordinate with each installation on their behalf (e.g. lodging, transportation, security access to the installation, facilities, etc.)

6. Question: Where can I locate the most recent per diem schedule that the government follows?

Answer: United States (CONUS): https://www.gsa.gov/travel-resources, Foreign Per-diem Rates (OCONUS):https://aoprals.state.gov/content.asp?content_id=184&menu_id=78,Defense Travel management Office (CONUS and OCONUS): https://www.travel.dod.mil/Travel-Transportation-Rates/Per-Diem/Per-Diem-Rate-Lookup/

7. Question: Where can we find more information and costs for MilAir or Patriot Express for transport within Japan?

Answer: MilAir is typically not used because of schedule changes, cancellations, unless MilAir is the only available option (Diego Garcia) and will be coordinated via the PACFLT Fleet Training Coordinator. Current one way MilAir costs between Singapore and Diego Garcia is $1,144.00. May be higher in 2024.

8. Question: Due to travel complications, can we exclude Japan sites from our bid?

Answer: No. The intent of the contract is to provide consistent on-site training throughout the Pacific Fleet Area of Responsibility.

(i) Contingency operations;

(ii) Humanitarian or peacekeeping operations; or

(iii) Other military operations or exercises designated by the Combatant Commander.

(2) Contract performance in support of U.S. military forces may require work in dangerous or austere conditions. The Contractor accepts the risks associated with required contract performance in such operations.

(3) Contractor personnel are not combatants and shall not undertake any role that would jeopardize their status.

Contractor personnel shall not use force or otherwise directly participate in acts likely to cause actual harm to enemy armed forces.

(c) Support.

(1) Unless the terms and conditions of this contract place the responsibility with another party, the COMUSK will develop a security plan to provide protection, through military means, of Contractor personnel engaged in the theater of operations when sufficient or legitimate civilian authority does not exist.

(2) (i) All Contractor personnel engaged in the theater of operations are authorized resuscitative care, stabilization, hospitalization at level III military treatment facilities, and assistance with patient movement in emergencies where loss of life, limb, or eyesight could occur. Hospitalization will be limited to stabilization and short-term medical treatment with an emphasis on return to duty or placement in the patient movement system.

(ii) When the Government provides medical treatment or transportation of Contractor personnel to a selected civilian facility, the Contractor shall ensure that the Government is reimbursed for any costs associated with such treatment or transportation.

(iii) Medical or dental care beyond this standard is not authorized unless specified elsewhere in this contract.

(3) Unless specified elsewhere in this contract, the Contractor is responsible for all other support required for its personnel engaged in the theater of operations under this contract.

(d) Compliance with laws and regulations. The Contractor shall comply with, and shall ensure that its personnel supporting U.S Armed Forces in the Republic of Korea as specified in paragraph (b)(1) of this clause are familiar with and comply with, all applicable—

In the Republic of Korea, all contractor employees subject to this clause shall comply with the same DoD immunization requirements applicable to Emergency Essential DoD civilians—INCLUDING ANTHRAX IMMUNIZATION. The Government will provide, at no cost to the Contractor, any Korean theater-specific immunizations and/or medications not available to the general public.

(3) Contractor personnel have all necessary passports, visas, and other documents required to enter and exit a theater of operations and have a Geneva Conventions identification card from the deployment center or CONUS personnel office—if, applicable.

(4) Country and theater clearance is obtained for contractor personnel. Clearance requirements are in DOD

Directive 4500.54, Official Temporary Duty Abroad, DOD 4500.54-G, DOD Foreign Clearance Guide, and USFK Reg 1-40, United States Forces Korea Travel Clearance Guide. Contractor personnel are considered non-DOD personnel traveling under DOD sponsorship.

(f) Processing and departure points. Deployed contractor personnel shall—

(1) Under contingency conditions or under other conditions as specified by the Contracting Officer, process through the deployment center designated in the contract, prior to deploying. The deployment center will conduct deployment processing to ensure visibility and accountability of contractor personnel and to ensure that all deployment requirements are met;

(2) Use the point of departure and transportation mode directed by the Contracting Officer; and

(3) If processing through a deployment center, process through a Joint Reception Center (JRC) upon arrival at the deployed location.

(g) Personnel data list.

(1) The Contractor shall establish and maintain with the designated Government official a current list of all contractor personnel that deploy with or otherwise provide support in the theater of operations to U.S.

military forces as specified in paragraph (b)(1) of this clause. The Synchronized Predeployment and Operational Tracker (SPOT) is the designated automated system to use for this effort.

(2) Contractor personnel may wear military-unique organizational clothing and individual equipment (OCIE) required for safety and security, such as ballistic, nuclear, biological, or chemical protective clothing.

(3) The deployment center, the Combatant Commander, or the Sponsoring Agency shall issue OCIE and shall provide training, if necessary, to ensure the safety and security of contractor personnel.

(4) The Contractor shall ensure that all issued OCIE is returned to the point of issue, unless otherwise directed by the Contracting Officer.

(n) Changes. In addition to the changes otherwise authorized by the Changes clause of this contract, the

Contracting Officer may, at any time, by written order identified as a change order, make changes in Government-furnished facilities, equipment, material, services, or site.
