1.3 Acquisition of

Additional Work The Government reserves the right to acquire additional services at additional locations in addition to the services and locations identified in the recurring work requirements of this contract.

Items of work not covered by this contract but within the general intent are considered in the scope of this contract.

1.4 Background Information Guam, the largest and southernmost island of the Marianas archipelago, is the western most possession of the United States. The island is approximately 6,000 miles west of San Francisco, 3,700 miles west-southwest of Honolulu, 1,500 miles southeast of Tokyo, 2,100 miles southwest of Hong Kong, 1,500 miles east of Manila; and 3,100 miles northwest of Sydney at 13 degrees north latitude and 144 degrees east longitude. The Marianas Trench, the deepest known ocean depth, is located southeast of Guam.

The island of Guam is approximately 30 miles in length with a variable width, ranging from 12 miles to 4 miles at its narrowest point.

Approximately 212 square miles, excluding reef formations, the island has two basic geological compositions. The central and northern features are primarily raised limestone with several volcanic formations at Mount Santa Rosa and Mount Mataguak. The northern cliff lines drop precipitously into the sea with an elevation ranging from 300 to 600 feet. The southern features are basically volcanic with an elongated mountain ridge dividing the inland valleys and coastline. The highest point is Mount Lam Lam with an elevation of 1,334 feet.

Earthquakes also occur frequently near Guam and can cause damage to property. Guam is located in Seismic Zone 4.

1.5 Verification of

Workload and Conditions

Throughout the PWS, the workload data is generally referred to as being located in Section J. Section J provides data such as inventories, maps, floor plans, and tables to represent the type, quantity and location of services to be provided. However, offerors are encouraged to visit the project site during the site visit for offerors and to visit the technical library during posted hours as part of its due diligence to assess the nature of work and conditions under which work is to be performed.

1.6 Climate Patterns Guam's climate is pleasantly warm year-round. The mean annual temperature is 81 degrees; the range is from the low 70s to the mid 80s.

The coolest and least humid months are in December through February.

The annual rainfall totals 80 to 110 inches. Guam experiences two (2) seasons, dry and rainy. The dry season, "fanumnangan," begins in December through June. The rainy season, "fanuchanan," falls within the remaining months.

Typhoons, the most intense tropical cyclones observed anywhere, form over the open ocean areas of the Western Pacific. Generally, most of these tropical cyclones are in their formative stages while near Guam.

Located in the middle of "Typhoon Alley," Guam usually averages four to five storm threats each year. On average, Guam is affected by a tropical cyclone with 40-mile-per-hour winds or higher every season.

About every 5 to 10 years, Guam gets hit directly by a super-typhoon.

However, the ever-changing patterns can bring a strong typhoon any year.

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. It is the Navy's and contractor's responsibility as partners to reach this goal. 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 peculiar 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 distributed within Specification Item 3 of Annexes 3 through 18. For contracts with no recurring work requirements, costs should be spread to Spec Item 4.

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.
