1.0 Scope.

The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWCAD) Webster Outlying Field (WOLF) provides engineering, integration, and mission support services to numerous Navy, Joint, and coalition forces worldwide utilizing numerous platforms and integrated capabilities. These capabilities typically require integration and coordination with existing infrastructure as well as the addition of new capabilities as the mission requirements dictate. The NAWCAD WOLF provides engineering design, tailored Systems Engineering (SE), and product acquisition in the development, integration, and fielding of solutions for warfighting capability gaps. Duties include the application of rapid development, rapid prototyping, and Systems Integration in the development of product-based solutions in areas to include Combat Integration & Identification Systems (CI&IDS), Ship & Air Integrated Warfare Systems (SAIW), Special Communications Mission Solutions (SCMS), Air Traffic Control & Landing Systems (ATC&LS), Airborne Systems Integration (ASI), and Integrated Command and Control (C2) and Intelligence. Due to the rapid nature of the work performed by the NAWCAD WOLF, all phases of the acquisition life cycle are present to provide products and services from concept through fielding. Training, operational support, and life cycle sustainment support are also required for limited durations in support of emerging operational needs.

NAWCAD WOLF provides the personnel, facilities, and processes required to design, prototype, develop, integrate, install, modernize and provide engineering lifecycle support for airborne, shipboard, expeditionary small craft (land and sea), and shore based systems for Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Combat Systems, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C5ISR) systems, sensors, command/operation centers, intelligence management, and identification for Navy, DoD, and other government agencies.The objective of this Multiple Award Contract (MA) Indefinite Quantity Indefinite Delivery (IDIQ) Contract (MAC) is to support new and emerging requirements and growth across the NAWCAD WOLF services portfolio using a strategic sourcing vehicle. RAPID MAC contractors will be competing for (TOs) that complement, augment, or add to (but will not duplicate) the current services in the six (6) functional areas outlined below provided within the NAWCAD WOLF portfolio.

Normal working hours are usually eight and a half (8.5) hours (including a thirty-minute lunch break), from 0730 to 1600 each Monday through Friday (except on the legal holidays specified in paragraph 3.1.4.1.2). Some supported Government offices have flexibility to start as early as 0600/0630 and end as late as 1800, Monday through Friday. Support required outside normal working hours may be required at the TO level.

3.1.4.1.1 Compressed Work Schedule (CWS). CWS is an alternative work schedule to the traditional five (5) eight and a half (8.5) hour workdays (which includes a thirty-minute lunch) worked per week. Under a CWS schedule, an employee completes the following schedule within a two-week period of time: eight (8) weekdays are worked at nine and a half (9.5) hours each (which includes a thirty-minute lunch), one (1) weekday is alternately worked as eight and a half (8.5) hours (which includes a thirty-minute lunch) and one (1) weekday is not worked by the employee. The result is eighty (80) hours worked every two (2) weeks, with forty-four (44) work hours one (1) week and thirty-six (36) work hours the other.

The Contractor may allow its employees to work a CWS schedule. If the Contractor chooses to allow its employees to work a CWS schedule in support of this Contract, any additional costs associated with the implementation of the CWS schedule vice the standard schedule are unallowable costs under this Contract and will not be reimbursed by the Government. Additionally, the CWS schedule shall not prevent Contractor employees from providing necessary staffing and services coverage when required by the Government to the COR/ACOR.

3.1.4.1.2 Holidays. The Government observes the following holidays:

3.1.4.1.3 Installation closure. When Federal facilities are closed by the Government or when Federal employees are officially excused from work due to a holiday or a special event, severe weather, a security threat, or any other Government facility related problem that prevents Federal personnel from working at the Government facility, Contractor personnel assigned to work at that facility in support of such Federal employees shall follow their parent company’s policies.

While generally Contractor personnel may not perform work on-site at a Government facility without oversight from Federal personnel, in very limited circumstances, work being performed by Contractor personnel may be deemed mission essential and performance of such mission essential work may be authorized to continue at the Government facility despite the facility being otherwise closed for normal operations. The circumstances permitting work being performed by Contractor personnel to be deemed mission essential are extremely limited and generally only apply to performance of efforts related to public health, safety, or matters related to national security. The cognizant Contracting Officer (KO) must concur with any determination that work being performed by Contractor personnel is mission essential.
