To ensure operational sustainment, Naval Station Newport is required to follow Rhode Island state environment regulations for water testing. At this point in time, Naval Station Newport does not have the organic capability to perform their own environmental state approved lab testing on site and requires a commercial contract to successfully perform the required services.
1.5 Verification of
Workload and Conditions
Throughout the PWS, the workload data is generally referred to as being in Sections C and J. Section C provides data such as descriptions, specifications, and the statement of work. Section J provides data such as system descriptions, inventories, maps, floor plans, and tables to represent the type, quantity, and location of services to be provided.
As prescribed in FAR 52.237-1, offerors or quoters are urged and expected to inspect the site where services are to be performed and to satisfy themselves regarding all general and local conditions that may affect the cost of contract performance, to the extent that the information is reasonably obtainable. In no event shall failure to inspect the site constitute grounds for a claim after contract award.
1.6 Climate Patterns Climate patterns and weather are typical of this gorgeous geographic area.
Local weather is strongly influenced by the Atlantic Ocean, due to the proximity to the coast. RI has a humid continental climate with warm summers and cold winters. The climate is generally milder along the coast, particularly in the winter. January temperatures in Newport, RI average 38 degrees F high and 23 degrees F low. July temperatures average 78 degrees F high to 64 degrees F low. However, summer temperatures may reach the lower 90 degrees F and temperatures in the winter can fall below 0 Degrees F. Precipitation (rainfall and snowfall) in RI is distributed throughout the year. Most areas receive approximately 46 inches of liquid yearly, although parts of the coast are somewhat wetter.

Any block of text marked “Informational Notes” throughout Annexes 1 through 18 is subject to this disclaimer. Offerors may not rely upon the "Informational Notes" as material representations of the Government. Information provided in "Informational Notes" does not create a contractual requirement on either party to this contract.
Clarifying Information describes client expectations in a more detailed manner than the Performance Objective and Performance standard alone.
Constraining Information describes limitations to the work performed to meet the Performance Objective and Performance Standard.
Requirement Information further describes client requirements associated with each Performance Objective.
1.8 Navy Approach to
Service Contracting
The Department of Navy (DoN) spends over $1 billion in annual obligations to meet global requirements for facility operations and maintenance provided through Facility Support Contracts (FSC) and additional billions to provide other base operations support services (OBOS). The Head of the Contracting Activity (HCA) of the Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) has focused increased attention on re-engineering FSC contracts in response to customer and industry feedback, budget constraints, and the impact of a variety of contracting, program management and financial management regulations.
The Navy also supports the following principles:
1.8.1 Partnering Philosophy The first principle is that the Navy views its contractors as partners and not just abstract service providers. The Navy wants its contractors to succeed because partners' success drives the Navy's successful mission completion.
Within the bounds of acquisition policy, the Navy intends to work to find solutions that will be beneficial to both the Government and its partners.
1.8.2 Contractor's Knowledge The second principle is that the Navy will receive insightful management from its contractors. This management will include the knowledge, skills, authority and willingness to use contractor resources to find better ways of serving Navy clients’ strategic and operational goals and objectives. The Navy's use of performance-based objectives evidences this principle.
Although performance work statements will typically contain several levels of performance assessment, the Navy wants its contractors to exercise maximum discretion within bounds of prudent risk management to adjust processes and resources needed to reach specified objectives at the highest performance level.
1.8.3 Industry Best Practices The third principle is that the Navy will adopt industry best commercial practices and maintain state-of-the-art service delivery. To that end, the Navy's emphasis will be in evaluating performance objectives (end results).
1.9 Standard Template Key to implementing a programmatic approach is using a standard template that ensures Navy-wide consistency yet affords appropriate tailoring to meet local needs. This contract conforms to the standard template and has been tailored for this solicitation. NAVFAC intends to use this template-based approach for future service contracts. Offerors should develop an understanding of the template as part of performing due diligence in reaching an understanding of the Navy’s requirements and expectations.
The standard template contains 18 standard annexes. Annex 1 will always contain information that is relevant to the entire scope of the contract.
Annex 2 contains on-site project management and administration requirements that are relevant to the entire scope of the contract. Annexes 3 through 18 contain the technical information and requirements particular to that technical annex. Within each technical annex, the organization of information and requirements are also standardized.
Specification Item 1 will always contain General Information.
Specification Item 2 will always contain the management and administrative requirements. Specification Item 3 will always contain the Recurring Work requirements. Specification Item 4 will always contain the Non-Recurring Work requirements. Requirements and standards for higher level specification items apply to all subordinate specification items, e.g., Specification Item 3 standards apply to all recurring work specification items. Specification Item 3.1 is applicable to all 3.1 subordinate specification items.
Specification Items 3.2 and 3.3 are not considered subordinate to 3.1. All costs associated with Annexes 1 and 2 and Specification Items 1 and 2 must be priced and their price must be allocated across the Exhibit Line Items.
1.10 Navy PBSA Approach The Navy’s approach to performance-based service acquisition (PBSA) includes four component parts which are 1) performance outcomes, 2) measurable standards, 3) consideration of incentives, and 4) performance assessment plan.

2.3.3 Partnering To increase the likelihood of successful performance of this contract, the Government requires cohesive partnerships with its Contractors and subcontractors. Key stakeholders, including the supported commands who will receive services, principal individuals from NAVFAC, the performance assessment team, and representative(s) of the installation(s) will be invited to participate in the partnering process. Key members of the prime and sub-contractor teams, including senior management personnel must participate. The partnership will draw on the strength of each organization in an effort to achieve quality contract services done right the first time, within the contract price, as scheduled, and without any safety mishaps.
Partnering should accomplish three goals:
- The first goal is to develop a cohesive team with common purpose, commitment and established communication processes.
- The second goal of partnering is contract specific, identifying risks and opportunities for the team to address.
- The third goal is to sustain the Partnership throughout the contract by identifying and addressing issues that affect the Partnership.
2.3.3.1 Informal Partnering The Contracting Officer shall organize the initial Partnering Meeting with key personnel of the project team, including Contractor's personnel and Government personnel. The initial session will be scheduled concurrent with the Pre-Performance Conference and held no later than 30 days after award and will be held at a government provided facility as designated by the KO.
The Initial Informal Partnering Session will be conducted and facilitated using electronic media (a video and accompanying forms) provided by Contracting Officer. The senior Government stakeholder present will lead the meeting; however, the Contractor’s PM or senior representative is encouraged to participate as co-lead.
The Partners will determine the frequency of the follow-on sessions.
2.3.3.2 Contract Partnering
Administration
Upon award, the ACO will contact the Contractor, supported command(s), Region, and Installation(s) stakeholders, and the performance assessment team to discuss implementation of partnering. A partnership agreement, The Charter, should be in place as early as possible so issues arising, even before work begins, can be resolved using the issues resolution process. Replacement of Core Management Team members (stakeholders who attended the initial session and manage the contract work day-to-day) is discouraged since it will disrupt the synergy that has been developed. If replacement of a team member proves to be unavoidable, a follow-on partnering session must be held to officially turn the responsibilities of the position over to the new member.
The Core Management Team consisting of the attendees below must be present during the initial and all follow-on partnering sessions.
These are the core mandatory attendees. Other stakeholders may attend if they desire or as recommended by the partners.
