PART 1

GENERAL INFORMATION

1. GENERAL: This requirement provides a temporary equipment capability supporting real-time fuel visibility for Brigade Combat Team, 3rd Infantry Division during the National Training Center (NTC) rotation. The capability includes contractor-provided fuel monitoring sensors, associated communications hardware, and a software-enabled monitoring interface. Contractor technical assistance provided under this requirement is incidental to the deployment and operation of the equipment capability.

1.1 Description of Services/Introduction: The contractor shall provide non-intrusive fuel monitoring sensors, associated communications hardware, and access to a monitoring interface that enables near real-time visibility of fuel levels across designated Government fuel assets supporting Brigade Combat Team during the NTC rotation.

The contractor shall perform deployment, configuration, and removal of the equipment capability and provide limited technical assistance required to ensure functionality during the training event.

1.2 Background: Fort Irwin & the National Training Center is a world class training center for America's Military, known for its excellent desert training, vast recreational opportunities, and history. The mission of the NTC is to provide tough, realistic, joint and combined arms training in multi-national venues across the full spectrum of conflict set in a contemporary operating environment to assist Commanders in developing trained, competent leaders and Soldiers by presenting them with current problem sets to improve the force and prepare for success in the Global War on Terrorism and future joint battlefields.

Large-scale training exercises at the National Training Center (NTC) require dispersed sustainment operations across extended distances under simulated contested conditions. Brigade-level fuel distribution and accountability are critical to maintaining operational tempo and sustaining combat power. Current fuel reporting processes rely heavily on manual reporting methods, which can create delays in fuel visibility across the formation.

Temporary installation of non-intrusive fuel level monitoring sensors will provide near real-time visibility of fuel levels on designated bulk fuel platforms, enabling improved sustainment awareness and more effective decision-making by sustainment leaders during the rotation.

1.3 Objectives: the objective of this contract is to provide a temporary fuel monitoring capability that enables near real-time visibility of fuel levels on designated bulk fuel assets during the NTC rotation.

1.4 Scope: The contractor shall provide fuel monitoring sensors, communications hardware, and associated monitoring capability for installation on up to sixty (60) designated bulk fuel assets.

The contractor shall perform deployment and removal of the equipment capability, along with limited technical assistance necessary to maintain system functionality during the training rotation for the following systems:

• M978 HEMTT Fuel Tankers

• MFS-TRM systems

• Other similar bulk fuel systems identified by the Government

The capability shall provide near real-time fuel level visibility through a commercially hosted monitoring platform accessible via a web-based interface.

The capability under this contract:

• Shall not permanently modify Government equipment

• Shall not connect directly to Army network infrastructure

• Shall not transfer operational control to the contractor

• Shall remain temporary and limited to the NTC training rotation

All equipment provided under this requirement remains contractor-owned and will be removed at the conclusion of the training event.
