STATEMENT OF WORK

1.0 BACKGROUND

Shasta Dam is considered a National Critical Infrastructure (NCI), and it is imperative to ensure the dam and powerplant continue to operate without interruption. Based on a Security Effective

Assessment in January of 2024, the Region and NCAO leadership have determined the need for a response capable armed guard force at Shasta Dam, specifically the Security Response Force

(SRF). Shasta Dam has a requirement for an indoor range for SRF personnel to conduct firearms training and qualifications year around.

2.0 OBJECTIVE

The objective of this contract is to obtain a live fire range that eliminates SRF personnel from having to travel offsite to conduct training and the ability to conduct firearms training during inclement weather.

a) Supplying the one (1) modular indoor shooting range, in accordance with the specifications identified in Section 4.0

b) Transporting and placing the modular indoor shooting range on-site

c) Installing the modular indoor shooting range on-site in accordance with all local, state and

Federal requirements.

d) Providing one, 2-hour training session to Reclamation personnel covering system maintenance, operations, and troubleshooting.

e) The flooring from the shooting stalls and everything behind will be painted black. The stalls must have a swing down shooter’s tray, and a collapsible shooting barricade.

f) Sound test results shall be submitted prior to award of contract. Standard that the contractor should meet includes using a 5.56mm and .223 rifle. The sound when using both at 25 feet shall be under 100db, 50 feet under 90db, 75 feet under 80 db and 100 feet should be under

70db.

g) The contractor shall be responsible for removing all debris and surplus chemicals or liquids used during the installation.

DOI-AAAP-0050 CONTRACTOR PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT REPORTING

SYSTEM (DEC 2015)

1) FAR 42.1502 directs all Federal agencies to collect past performance information on contracts. The Department of the Interior (DOI) has implemented the Contractor

Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) to comply with this regulation.

One or more past performance evaluations will be conducted in order to record your contract performance as required by FAR 42.15.

https://www.ipp.gov/ mailto:ippgroup@bos.frb.org

2) The past performance evaluation process is a totally paperless process using CPARS.

CPARS is a web-based system that allows for electronic processing of the performance evaluation report. Once the report is processed, it is available in the Past Performance

Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) for Government use in evaluating past performance as part of a source selection action.

3) We request that you furnish the Contracting Officer (CO) with the name, position title, phone number, and email address for each person designated to have access to your firm's past performance evaluation(s) for the contract no later than 30 days after award. Each person granted access will have the ability to provide comments in the Contractor portion of the report and state whether or not the Contractor agrees with the evaluation, before returning the report to the Assessing Official (AO). Information in the report must be protected as source selection sensitive information not releasable to the public.

4) When your Contractor Representative(s) are registered in CPARS, they will receive an automatically generated email with detailed login instructions. Further details, systems requirements, and training information for CPARS is available at https://www.cpars.gov/.

5) Within 60 days after the end of a performance period, the AO will complete an interim or final past performance evaluation, and the report will be accessible at https://www.cpars.gov/.

(a) Contractor Representatives may then provide comments in response to the evaluation, or return the evaluation without comment.

(b) Your comments should focus on objective facts in the AO's narrative and should provide your views on the causes and ramifications of the assessed performance.

(c) All information provided should be reviewed for accuracy prior to submission.

(d) If you elect not to provide comments, please acknowledge receipt of the evaluation by indicating "No comment" in the space provided, and then selecting

“Accept the Ratings and Close the Evaluation”.

(e) Your response is due within 60 calendar days after receipt of the CPAR. On day

15, the evaluation will become available in PPIRS-RC marked as “Pending” with or without comments and whether or not it has been closed.

(f) If you do not sign and submit the CPAR within 60 days, it will automatically be returned to the Government and will be annotated: "The report was delivered/received by the contractor on (date). The contractor neither signed nor offered comment in response to this assessment."

6) The following guidelines apply concerning your use of the past performance evaluation:

http://www.cpars.gov/ http://www.cpars.gov/

(a) Protect the evaluation as source selection information. After review, transmit the evaluation by completing and submitting the form through CPARS. If for some reason you are unable to view and/or submit the form through CPARS, contact the CO for instructions.

(b) Strictly control access to the evaluation within your organization. Ensure the evaluation is never released to persons or entities outside of your control.

(c) Prohibit the use of or reference to evaluation data for advertising, promotional material, pre-award surveys, responsibility determinations, production readiness reviews, or other similar purposes.

7) If you wish to discuss a past performance evaluation, you should request a meeting in writing to the CO no later than seven days following your receipt of the evaluation. The meeting will be held in person or via telephone or other means during your 60-day review period.

8) A copy of the completed past performance evaluation will be available in CPARS for your viewing and for Government use supporting source selection actions after it has been finalized.

Contractor must not proceed and must notify the Contracting Officer in writing within five (5) working days after receipt of any such instruction or direction and must request the Contracting

Officer to modify the contract accordingly. Upon receiving the notification from the Contractor, the Contracting Officer must –
