The government shall not exercise any supervision or control over the contract service providers performing the services herein. Such contract service providers shall be accountable solely to the contractor who, in turn, is responsible to the government
1.1.1 Description of Services/Objectives. The contractor shall provide all management, personnel, equipment, supplies, facilities, transportation, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and nonpersonal services necessary to perform ONA as defined in this Performance Work Statement (PWS) except for those items specified as Government Furnished Property and services. The contractor shall meet the standards in this contract. This includes the planning, coordination, and surveillance of the activities necessary to ensure disciplined work performance and timely resources application to accomplish all tasks under the contract. The contractor shall be responsible for maintaining communication with the contracting officer (CO) and the contracting officer’s representative (COR), and to immediately notify both the CO and the COR of any problems that would prevent the timely performance of this contract. The contractor is responsible for and required to implement, and maintain management control systems necessary to plan, organize, direct, and control all activities under this contract. These services include surveys and seminars that comprehensively cover organizational leadership to develop coaching skills and create a winning team.
1.2 Background: Little Rock Air Force Base (LRAFB) is centrally located in Arkansas, approximately seventeen (17) miles northeast of Little Rock. The facility covers 6,217 acres with a resident population of over 3,300 and a working population of approximately 7,200. The host unit at Little Rock AFB is the 19th Airlift Wing (19 AW), assigned to the Air Mobility Command. The wing provides the Department of Defense with the largest C-130 Hercules transport fleet in the world, supplying humanitarian airlift relief to victims of disasters, as well as airdropping supplies and troops into the heart of contingency operations in hostile areas. Other organizations at Little Rock AFB include the 314th Airlift Wing, assigned to the Air Education and Training Command, and the 189th Airlift Wing of the Arkansas Air National Guard. All of these organizations fly the C-130 Hercules. Little Rock AFB is the fourth largest employer in the state of Arkansas, with a local economic impact of $813.6 million.
The 314 Maintenance Group (MXG) at Little Rock Air Force Base (AFB) wishes to assess their organization to identify areas for targeted interventions. This is in response to unacceptable increases in safety mishaps and disciplinary concerns across the force. 314 MXG leadership is especially interested in disciplined mission execution, investment in junior leaders, and enabling/leading change in units to combat known patterns of conduct/discipline, safety concerns, and complacent attitudes.
1.3. Inherently Governmental Function. The contractor shall not perform inherently governmental functions as defined in FAR Subpart 7.5 in relationship to this PWS.
1.4. Period of Performance. The period of performance shall be for one (1) Base Year of 12 months and four (4) 12-month option years, from the date of the award.
1.5 Place of Performance. The contractor shall perform the services in the PWS at Little Rock AFB, AR.
1.6 Specific Tasks. The contractor shall conduct an extensive and comprehensive ONA and use the results of the ONA to inform adaptation of a military-specific cultural change training designed to improve the interpersonal skills, virtue, and team building within the ranks of Little Rock AFB. The ONA must include measures of social influence and network centrality, as well as measures of individual wellbeing. The ONA shall utilize statistical analysis capable of generating advanced regressions, multivariate analyses, and statistics to interpret initial raw data. The statistical analysis process must include utilization of programs leveraging machine learning. Proprietary data analysis systems are acceptable but must be of comparable capacity to modern software programs such as R, Python, SAS, SPSS, etc. The contractor shall develop a comprehensive report regarding the 314 MXG which includes insights and analyses of the informal communication and culture within the assessed unit. These contractor-generated reports shall include sections such as diagrams of social network mapping and metrics in a format that is understandable to lay persons, and which will aid leadership in gaining a better understanding of the way work is conducted in their organization. The report must be compatible with Microsoft Office products. However, simple statistics conducted through MS Excel will not meet the Government needs (ergo: mean and standard deviation are not sufficient on their own). The report shall highlight key individuals and organizational factors requiring collaboration within the team and across functions, locations, and levels. The contractor shall adapt or develop a customized training course based on the ONA which is fully available for delivery within 30 days of completing the ONA. The contractor shall develop training that improves communication between Airmen, Non-Commissioned Officers (NCO), and Senior Non-Commissioned Officers (SNCO) through identifying and leveraging patterns and trends observed in the ONA. The contractor shall incorporate group open discussion to advance Air Force interpersonal skills previously taught in Military Professional Education to practical real world and current scenarios in the life of maintainers. More specifically, this shall include a focus on the unique leadership challenges and culture norms experienced by Junior Airmen, NCOs, and SNCOs in and around aircraft maintenance career fields. The contractor shall train personnel in the skills needed to coach, develop, and increase communication with junior team members– navigating the attainment of critical life skills and developmental milestones unique to their generation. Trained personnel shall provide learning skills in initiating and sustaining change around the areas of safety, discipline, resilience, and professional development.

The contractor shall assess 100% of the 314 MXG personnel, up to 300 personnel, as part of network assessment and utilize highly qualified data analysis professionals and data management tools to ensure data quality and generalizability across the formation. The contractor shall debrief the results to the MXG leaders, The contractor shall debrief the results to the MXG leaders in accordance with Table 1 Deliverables. The contractor shall use the ONA to aid the command in measuring and understanding the 314 MXG internal structure and identify key individuals and suborganizations for strategic intervention. The contractor shall ensure that the ONA and its reports are sufficiently specific to identify the assessed unit’s most and least influential individuals (goal clear identification of clusters of Airmen with combined social capital impacting at least 25% of an identified formation). The ONA must include pre and post measurements based off Table one used to tailor and assess effectiveness of targeted leadership development seminars as well as all visuals for instruction sessions. Comment by CLINGENPEEL, ERIC R Capt USAF AMC 19 CONS/PKA: If you want reports to be given pre and post class, I would specifically say that in the "Specific Tasks" section above Comment by DRACKETTE, CAMILLE CIV USAF AMC 19 CONS/PKA: Put all deliverables in the table.
