2.2 STATEMENT OF WORK

Subject

The Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) Field Acquisition, Grand Prairie, Texas intends to make a single award for an indefinite delivery/requirements type contract with firm-fixed unit prices to an accredited institution of higher learning, post-secondary institution, vocational-training or industry-based school for the provision of an Occupational Training Welding Program Instructor for the Satellite Camp Prison (SCP) La Tuna, located at 8500 Doniphan Anthony, Texas 79821. The program will provide instruction in

15BFA023Q00000095 Page 6 of 56 welding, as part of a sustainability-training program. General information regarding the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) and its facilities is located at www.bop.gov.

The vocational training program must fall under the contractor’s umbrella of accreditation and lead to transferrable credits resulting in successful completion of the vocational training program. Successful completion of the training program must qualify inmates for at least entry-level employment in a specified field upon release. The vocational training program must lead to a college certificate, A.A., A.A.S., or A.S Degree, or a marketable level certification. The contractor must be an accredited entity. The organization’s accreditation will be verified using the US Department of Education Database of Accredited Postsecondary Institutions and Programs (DAPIP) website (https://ope.ed.gov/dapip/#/home). If required for employment, certification tests from outside organizations may be administered to individual inmates upon completion of a specific occupational education program. The contractor shall not be a self-employed individual or an individual employed by a post-secondary institution, vocational training school, or industry-based school.

The contract must between the government and the accredited post-secondary educational institution, junior college, college, vocational training school, or industry-based school.

Background

The Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) was established in 1930 to provide more progressive and humane care for Federal inmates, to professionalize the prison service, and to ensure consistent and centralized administration. The Federal prison system is a nationwide system of prisons and detention facilities for the incarceration of persons who have been sentenced to imprisonment for Federal crimes and the detention of persons awaiting trial in Federal court. The defined mission of the BOP is as follows:

It is the mission of the Federal Bureau of Prisons to protect society by confining offenders in the controlled environments of prisons and community-based facilities that are safe, humane, cost-efficient, and appropriately secure, and that provide work and other self-improvement opportunities to assist offenders in becoming law-abiding citizens.

As an agency under the Executive Branch of the United States Government, the BOP receives an annual appropriation of funds to accomplish its mission. The public trust demands that this annual appropriation be prudently managed. Monies spent to provide education to the inmate population must reflect the agency’s best efforts to obtain cost-effective services, consistent with community standards.

In 1996, the Bureau of Prisons standardized procedures to (1) select and fund new vocational/occupational training programs, (2) select and fund existing vocational/occupational training programs, and (3) update equipment for existing vocational/occupational training programs. The following Bureau of Prisons Program Statements, which are available electronically at www.bop.gov, are applicable to this contract and are incorporated by reference to the same effect as if they were given in full text.

Courses will be instructed utilizing 6-hour sessions of classroom.

Specific dates for the classes will be determined by the Supervisor of Education and the contractor.

The accredited post-secondary institution, vocational training school or industry-based school will provide a written curriculum, which establishes measurable behavioral objectives and procedures. The curriculum must include clear criteria which establish minimum expectations for program completion, provisions for the assessment of student progress, must identify the hands-on competencies and must require the students to demonstrate them. In addition to core classes needed to attain a college certificate, an industry-accepted certificate, an Associate in Arts degree (A.A.), an Associate in Science degree (A.S.), or an Associate in Applied Science degree (A.A.S.), the curriculum must also include a course on resume development.

Schedule of Insurance: In accordance with FAR 52.228-5 and 28.307-2, (a) Workers’ compensation and employer’s liability.

Contractors are required to comply with applicable Federal and State workers’ compensation and occupational disease statutes. If occupational diseases are not compensable under those statutes, they shall be covered under the employer’s liability section of the insurance policy, except when contract operations are so commingled with a contractor’s commercial operations that it would not be practical to require this coverage. Employer’s liability coverage of at least $100,000 shall be required, except in States with exclusive or monopolistic funds that do not permit workers’ compensation to be written by private carriers. (See 28.305(c) for treatment of contracts subject to the Defense Base Act.)

(b) General liability. (1) The contracting officer shall require bodily injury liability insurance coverage written on the comprehensive form of policy of at least $500,000 per occurrence. (2)Property damage liability insurance shall be required only in special circumstances as determined by the agency.

(c) Automobile liability. The contracting officer shall require automobile liability insurance written on the comprehensive form of policy. The policy shall provide for bodily injury and property damage liability covering the operation of all automobiles used in connection with performing the contract. Policies covering automobiles operated in the United States shall provide coverage of at least $200,000 per person and $500,000 per occurrence for bodily injury and $20,000 per occurrence for property damage. The amount of liability coverage on other policies shall be commensurate with any legal requirements of the locality and sufficient to meet normal and customary claims.
