PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS)

FY 2019 Professional Development Training Course (PDTC) Naval Chaplaincy School & Center (NCSC)

1.0 INTRODUCTION

1.1 Purpose. The purpose of this Performance Work Statement (PWS) is to provide Contractor support to develop and deliver a Professional Development Training Course (PDTC) for Navy Chaplains and Religious Program Specialists (RPs).

1.2 Background. The Chief of Chaplains, Office of the Chief of Naval Operations (N097) is responsible for sponsoring, developing, and presenting PDTC’s for Navy chaplains. The Naval Chaplaincy School & Center (NCSC) is tasked by the Chief of Chaplains to develop the annual course in compliance with Naval Education and Training Command (NETC) curriculum development standards (See 2.0). The PDTC is an annual event conducted 12 times at sites in the Continental United States (CONUS), Western Pacific (WESTPAC), and Naples, Italy. The purpose of the PDTC is to prepare chaplains and RPs personally and professionally to provide, facilitate, and support religious ministry for Naval Service personnel and other authorized users. To ensure that chaplains and RPs are prepared to effectively deliver religious ministry, the Chief of Chaplains has selected the following theme for delivery in Fiscal Year 2019:

“Religious Ministry in Combat at and from the Sea”

This PWS is written in relation to three (3) modules for this PDTC: Day 1: Religious Ministry (RM) in Combat at and from the Sea. Day 2: Religious Ministry and a Faith Response to Moral Injury. Day 3: Religious Ministry Response to Combat at and from the Sea. It shall consist of 3 days of instructional classroom training totaling approximately 24 hours that shall be developed and delivered by contracted instructors.

Navy chaplains are religious ministry professionals who possess, at a minimum, a post-baccalaureate graduate degree in the field of theology or related studies from an accredited college, university, or school of theology of no fewer than 72 semester hours (108 quarter hours) of graduate-level work. Additionally, all Navy chaplains are endorsed by a religious organization in accordance with the Department of Defense (DoD) policy. They come from a diverse group of religious organizations and have varying levels of experience in military chaplaincy.

Religious Program Specialists provide support to Navy chaplains in developing programs to meet the needs of Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard personnel and their families. While RPs assist Navy chaplains in the delivery of religious ministry, they are not religious ministry professionals and do not perform ministerial functions within the Department of the Navy.

1.3 Scope. The Contractor shall develop and deliver three (3) days of training (appx.8 hrs. per day) on “Religious Ministry in Combat at and from the Sea”. This project shall require curriculum development, relevant training support materials, curriculum validation, and curriculum implementation. A select representative group determined by N097 and NCSC shall validate the curriculum, as specified in Paragraph 3.0 Technical Requirements.

1.4 Security Classification. This PWS and the initial training materials under procurement are unclassified. The Contractor shall adhere to all local security procedures required. Regardless of Performance Work Statement classifications, all NETC projects require individuals to possess Common Access Cards (CAC). CACs shall be obtained through the Trusted Associated Sponsorship System (TASS) in conjunction with your sponsor and a Trusted Agent. Additional information regarding TASS and the investigative process may be obtained by accessing http://www.cac.mil/common-access-card/getting-your-cac/for-Contractors/. Early termination or resignation of a contract employee shall be reported to the COR and the KO immediately via email by the Contractor Program Manager or their direct representative. Due to the geographic disparity between the Fleet Logistic Center (FLC) Jacksonville Contracting Officer Representative (COR) and the contract work site, the CAC shall be collected by the contract employee’s supervisor and surrendered to the contract Program Manager or Security Officer. The contract Program Manager shall ensure the CAC is rendered to the nearest Real-Time Automated Personnel Identification System (RAPIDS) site for disposal.

Violation of section 1.4 shall result in a breach of contract by the Contractor and may result in termination of contact by the Government.

1.4.1 PERSONNEL REMOVAL: Government rules, regulations, laws, directives, and requirements that are issued during the term of the performance period relating to law and order, installation administration, and security shall be applicable to all Contractor employees and representatives who enter the installation. Violation of such rules, regulations, laws, directives, or requirements shall be grounds for removal (permanently or temporarily as the Government determines) from the work site or installation. Removal of employees does not relieve the Contractor from the responsibility for the work defined in this contract.

· Removal by Installation Commander: The Installation Commander may, at his discretion, bar an individual from the installation under the authority of 18 USC 1382 (1972), for conduct that is determined to be contrary to good order, discipline, or installation security and safety.

· Removal Requested by Designated Government Representative (DGR): The DGR may require the Contractor to remove an employee working under this contract for reasons of misconduct or security violations. Contractor employees shall be subject to dismissal from the premises upon determination by the DGR that such action is necessary in the interest of the Government.

· Removal by Military Police: Contractor employees may be denied entry to or may be removed from the installation by Military Police if it is determined that the employee’s presence on the installation may be contrary to good order, discipline, or installation security and safety.

· Removal for Unsatisfactory Performance: The government reserves the right to require the Contractor to remove and replace any personnel who provided unsatisfactory performance, demonstrate insufficient knowledge, or possess inadequate skill levels necessary to complete assigned tasks. The skill level of the staff provided shall be current and consistent with new technologies.

6.0 POINTS OF CONTACT

THE FOLLOWING NAVSUP LOCAL TEXT IS HEREBY MADE PART OF THE PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT.

Contractor Unclassified Access to Federally Controlled Facilities, Sensitive Information, Information Technology (IT) Systems or Protected Health Information Homeland Security Presidential Directive (HSPD)-12, requires Government agencies to develop and implement Federal security standards for Federal employees and Contractors. The Deputy Secretary of Defense Directive-Type Memorandum (DTM) 08-006 – “DoD Implementation of Homeland Security Presidential Directive – 12 (HSPD-12)” dated November 26, 2008 (or its subsequent DoD instruction) directs implementation of HSPD-12. This clause is in accordance with HSPD-12 and its implementing directives.

APPLICABILITY

This text applies to Contractor employees requiring physical access to any area of a federally controlled base, facility or activity and/or requiring access to a DoN or DoD computer/network/system to perform certain unclassified sensitive duties. This clause also applies to Contractor employees who access Privacy Act and Protected Health Information, provide support associated with fiduciary duties, or perform duties that have been identified as National Security Position, as advised by the Command Security Manager. It is the responsibility of the responsible security officer of the command/facility where the work is performed to ensure compliance.

Each Contractor employee providing services at a Navy Command under this contract is required to obtain a Department of Defense Common Access Card (DoD CAC). Additionally, depending on the level of computer/network access, the contract employee will require a successful investigation as detailed below.

ACCESS TO FEDERAL FACILITIES

Per HSPD-12 and implementing guidance, all Contractor employees working at a federally controlled base, facility or activity under this clause will require a DoD CAC. When access to a base, facility or activity is required Contractor employees shall in-process with the Command’s Security Manager upon arrival to the Command and shall out-process prior to their departure at the completion of the individual’s performance under the contract.

ACCESS TO DOD IT SYSTEMS

In accordance with SECNAV M-5510.30, Contractor employees who require access to DoN or DoD networks are categorized as IT-I, IT-II, or IT-III. The IT-II level, defined in detail in SECNAV M-5510.30, includes positions which require access to information protected under the Privacy Act, to include Protected Health Information (PHI). All Contractor employees under this contract who require access to Privacy Act protected information are therefore categorized no lower than IT-II. IT Levels are determined by the requiring activity’s Command Information Assurance Manager.

Contractor employees requiring privileged or IT-I level access, (when specified by the terms of the contract) require a Single Scope Background Investigation (SSBI) or T5 or T5R equivalent investigation, which is a higher level investigation than the National Agency Check with Law and Credit (NACLC)/T3/T3R described below. Due to the privileged system access, an investigation suitable for High Risk national security positions is required. Individuals who have access to system control, monitoring, or administration functions (e.g. system administrator, database administrator) require training and certification to Information Assurance Technical Level 1, and must be trained and certified on the Operating System or Computing Environment they are required to maintain.

Access to sensitive IT systems is contingent upon a favorably adjudicated background investigation. When access to IT systems is required for performance of the Contractor employee’s duties, such employees shall in-process with the Navy Command’s Security Manager and Information Assurance Manager upon arrival to the Navy command and shall out-process prior to their departure at the completion of the individual’s performance under the contract. Completion and approval of a System Authorization Access Request Navy (SAAR-N) form is required for all individuals accessing Navy Information Technology resources. The decision to authorize access to a Government IT system/network is inherently Governmental. The Contractor supervisor is not authorized to sign the SAAR-N; therefore, the Government employee with knowledge of the system/network access required or the COR shall sign the SAAR-N as the “supervisor”.

The SAAR-N shall be forwarded to the Command’s Security Manager at least 30 days prior to the individual’s start date. Failure to provide the required documentation at least 30 days prior to the individual’s start date may result in delaying the individual’s start date.

When required to maintain access to required IT systems or networks, the Contractor shall ensure that all employees requiring access complete annual Information Assurance (IA) training, and maintain a current requisite background investigation. The Contractor’s Security Representative shall contact the Command Security Manager for guidance when reinvestigations are required.

INTERIM ACCESS

The Command's Security Manager may authorize issuance of a DoD CAC and interim access to a DoN or DoD unclassified computer/network upon a favorable review of the investigative questionnaire and advance favorable fingerprint results. When the results of the investigation are received and a favorable determination is not made, the Contractor employee working on the contract under interim access will be denied access to the computer network and this denial will not relieve the Contractor of his/her responsibility to perform.

DENIAL OR TERMINATION OF ACCESS

The potential consequences of any requirement under this clause including denial or termination of physical or system access in no way relieves the Contractor from the requirement to execute performance under the contract within the timeframes specified in the contract. Contractors shall plan ahead in processing their employees and subContractor employees. The Contractor shall insert this clause in all subcontracts when the subContractor is permitted to have unclassified access to a federally controlled facility, federally-controlled information system/network and/or to Government information, meaning information not authorized for public release.

CONTRACTOR’S SECURITY REPRESENTATIVE

The Contractor shall designate an employee to serve as the Contractor’s Security Representative. Within three work days after contract award, the Contractor shall provide to the requiring activity’s Security Manager and the Contracting Officer, in writing, the name, title, address and phone number for the Contractor’s Security Representative. The Contractor’s Security Representative shall be the primary point of contact on any security matter. The Contractor’s Security Representative shall not be replaced or removed without prior notice to the Contracting Officer and Command Security Manager.

BACKGROUND INVESTIGATION REQUIREMENTS AND SECURITY APPROVAL PROCESS FOR CONTRACTORS ASSIGNED TO NATIONAL SECURITY POSITIONS OR PERFORMING SENSITIVE DUTIES Navy security policy requires that all positions be given a sensitivity value based on level of risk factors to ensure appropriate protective measures are applied. Contractor employees under this contract are recognized as Non-Critical Sensitive [ADP/IT-II] positions when the contract scope of work require physical access to a federally controlled base, facility or activity and/or requiring access to a DoD computer/network, to perform unclassified sensitive duties. This designation is also applied to Contractor employees who access Privacy Act and Protected Health Information (PHI), provide support associated with fiduciary duties, or perform duties that have been identified as National Security Positions. At a minimum, each Contractor employee must be a US citizen and have a favorably completed NACLC or T3 or T3R equivalent investigation to obtain a favorable determination for assignment to a non-critical sensitive or IT-II position. The investigation consists of a standard NAC and a FBI fingerprint check plus law enforcement checks and credit check. Each Contractor employee filling a non-critical sensitive or IT-II position is required to complete:

· SF-86 Questionnaire for National Security Positions (or equivalent OPM investigative product)

· Two FD-258 Applicant Fingerprint Cards (or an electronic fingerprint submission)

· Original Signed Release Statements

Failure to provide the required documentation at least 30 days prior to the individual’s start date shall result in delaying the individual’s start date. Background investigations shall be reinitiated as required to ensure investigations remain current (not older than 10 years) throughout the contract performance period. The Contractor’s Security Representative shall contact the Command Security Manager for guidance when reinvestigations are required.

Regardless of their duties or IT access requirements ALL Contractor employees shall in-process with the Command’s Security Manager upon arrival to the command and shall out-process prior to their departure at the completion of the individual’s performance under the contract. Employees requiring IT access shall also check-in and check-out with the Navy Command’s Information Assurance Manager. Completion and approval of a System Authorization Access Request Navy (SAAR-N) form is required for all individuals accessing Navy Information Technology resources. The SAAR-N shall be forwarded to the Navy Command’s Security Manager at least 30 days prior to the individual’s start date. Failure to provide the required documentation at least 30 days prior to the individual’s start date shall result in delaying the individual’s start date.

The Contractor shall ensure that each contract employee requiring access to IT systems or networks complete annual Information Assurance (IA) training, and maintain a current requisite background investigation. Contractor employees shall accurately complete the required investigative forms prior to submission to the Command Security Manager. The Command’s Security Manager will review the submitted documentation for completeness prior to submitting it to the Office of Personnel Management (OPM); Potential suitability or security issues identified may render the Contractor employee ineligible for the assignment. An unfavorable determination is final (subject to SF-86 appeal procedures) and such a determination does not relieve the Contractor from meeting any contractual obligation under the contract. The Command’s Security Manager will forward the required forms to OPM for processing. Once the investigation is complete, the results will be forwarded by OPM to the DoD Central Adjudication Facility (CAF) for a determination.

If the Contractor employee already possesses a current favorably adjudicated investigation, the Contractor shall submit a Visit Authorization Request (VAR) via the Joint Personnel Adjudication System (JPAS) or a hard copy VAR directly from the Contractor’s Security Representative. Although the Contractor will take JPAS “Owning” role over the Contractor employee, the Command will take JPAS "Servicing" role over the Contractor employee during the hiring process and for the duration of assignment under that contract. The Contractor shall include the IT Position Category per SECNAV M-5510.30 for each employee designated on a VAR. The VAR requires annual renewal for the duration of the employee’s performance under the contract.

Defense Biometric Identification System (DBIDS) The Defense Biometric Identification System (DBIDS) is a DoD-owned and operated system developed by Defense Manpower Data Center as a force protection program to manage personnel identity and access at DoD installations. DBIDS is a network database system designed to easily verify access authorization of personnel entering military installations by using barcodes and fingerprint biometric identifications.

To improve management and force protection at Navy installations, the Navy is transitioning from using the Navy Commercial Access Control System (NCACS) to the Defense Biometric Identification System (DBIDS) for Contractors and vendors requiring access to an installation at no cost to them.

In order to obtain base access, an individual needs to acquire DoD sponsorship, have a thorough identity check, be properly vetted, and have a legitimate reason for base access. Identity checks require a passport or a Real ID Act-compliant state driver's license. Vetting occurs when the individual's background and ID are compared against authoritative criminal justice data bases, and the individual has a letter or official document from the sponsoring organization which articulates the reason for access. When the above criteria are satisfactorily met, DBIDs credentials are issued.

ENCLOSURES 1 - 3

FY19 Professional Development Training Course Religious Ministry in Combat at and from the Sea

1. Background w/assumptions: Since September 11, 2001 the United States military has been engaged in ground combat operations. On July 25, 2017 Chief of Naval Operations Admiral Richardson stated, “In many areas of our business, sea control and blue water areas of warfighting have been uncontested for about 20 years. There have not been challenges on the high seas for a while. That's changing; we have, from my perspective, without a doubt returned to an era of maritime competition."[footnoteRef:1] Contextually, there is a need to focus training efforts on Religious Ministry (RM) in Combat at and from the Sea. Even though we have not had major battles at sea since WWII there are several individual Naval at sea combat related crisis such as the USS STARK, USS PRINCETON, USS VINCENNES and USS COLE that remind us we must be prepared not only to fight the ship, but ready to fight our enemy and care for the crew in combat at and from the sea. [1: Admiral Richardson, comments from the “Naval Future Force Science and Technology Expo” retrieved 26 July 17 from http://www.navy.mil/submit/display.asp?story_id=101634]

Assumptions:

· Combat is mostly a human endeavor

· Technology can complicate the moral and spiritual factors of combat

· Combat can be very traumatic

· Combat at and from the sea is doctrinally and tactically different from ground combat

· Some Service members will be killed in combat while others receive physical, moral, and spiritual injuries

· Injuries can be treated and most Service members will recover

· Most Service members cope positively with combat stress

· Traumatic events can result in meaningful post-traumatic growth

· There is a need to develop a renewed moral vocabulary and understanding of character development to equip and enable Service members to cope positively with military life, stress, and combat

· PDTC participants possess various levels of knowledge or will receive in other training environments, a basic familiarization in topics such as:

C/OSC

PTSD

Trauma response Shipboard Firefighting/General Quarters/Damage Control Mass Casualty Response Shipboard First Aid Command Advisement

2. Theme: Religious Ministry in Combat at and from the Sea

3. Goal: To provide Religious Ministry Teams (RMT) the knowledge, skills, and tools to effectively and efficiently deliver RM at and from the sea during operational phases 0-3. However, because combat is not always linear this training will address out of phase or simultaneous multi-phase operations. Additionally, this PDTC will cover the operational and strategic second and third order effects on RM in support of all commands such as Naval Installation Commands support of CACO.

4. Training Methodology: Narrative based, scenario driven training applying adult learning theory with an extensive use of table top exercises and multi-media presentations. Participants will be organized by tables and read-in as an at-sea group (CSG, ESG, ARG) that begins in phase 0 and culminates in phase 3. Each table will receive scenario updates throughout the training leading to the capstone event on the afternoon of day three.

5. Training Material:

· Participant manual

· Religious Support (RS) Plan Template

· Read aheads

6. Course Objectives: At the conclusion of this training participants will be able to:

1. Critically analyze the RM response across operational phases of war utilizing the Maritime Combat RM Response model.

2. Identify and assess the spiritual and moral effects of combat on Service members across operational phases of war.

3. Develop the language of character development and warrior éthos in order to understand how ethics, morals, values and virtues are positive protective factors for preventing moral and spiritual injury.

4. Describe morale as a positive protective factor to prevent moral and spiritual injuries.

5. Identify the role of the religious and worshipping communities that provide a sense of belongingness, meaningfulness and connectedness.

6. Identify the 5W’s of Moral Injury.

7. Develop a faith-based response model for the prevention, intervention, and postvention of moral injury.

8. Explore RM response to combat at and from the sea through case studies and historical vignettes Enclosure (1) Outline of Instruction
