C.1. DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES

The Mat Sinking Unit is involved in erosion control work on the Mississippi and Atchafalaya Rivers. The unit employs approximately 310 men and 10 women who stay in dormitories aboard floating barges during the three-month work season. They move from one job site to another ranging from Cairo, Illinois to Venice, Louisiana, often in remote locations along the river, and have limited communications facilities. In most cases, transport of an injured employee to the closest hospital can take up to 30-90 minutes. Most of the crew works ten-hour shifts, 12 days per two-week period. There are shift personnel working 24/7 for the entire season. The contractor is required to provide services 24/7.

The purpose of this contract is to provide Advanced Life Support (ALS) and Basic Life Support (BLS) services, treatment protocols, medical direction, equipment and personnel of (2) Paramedics. This includes all supplies, equipment, drugs, treatment protocols and medical direction needed to provide BLS and ALS treatment. The contractor will be required to provide health care services for the employees of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Mat Sinking Unit. The services of this contract will be for a period of performance of about 3-9 months per season, based upon the length of the work season.

The Mat Sinking Unit at this time is requiring that the paramedics be present at the Mat Sinking Unit on or about June 29, 2022. The paramedics will be required to work on the Mat Sinking Unit until about January 1, 2023. These dates are not guaranteed and may fluctuate over time dependent upon the pace of Mat Sinking Unit work. The Mat Sinking Unit reserves the right to use the paramedics for more or fewer days as needed until the Mat Sinking Unit returns to Vicksburg, MS. If the begin date moves back or forward, the end date will likely do the same. The paramedics shall provide services for every day of the season from the time required until the Mat Sinking Unit returns to Vicksburg and releases the paramedics. Time off will be given as discussed in section 3.2.

Option Seasons: This contract will consist of a base season along with four option seasons. If the Mat Sinking Unit determines that contractor’s performance is acceptable during the base season, the first option season may be executed for the next mat sinking season. And so on until all option seasons are utilized or until the contractor delivers unsatisfactory services.

Option for Paramedic: This contract will include, within each year, the option of a 3rd paramedic. This option will be executed if it is determined by the government that, due to the situation, a 3rd paramedic is needed to support operations for up to the duration of a full mat sinking season.

Option for Covid Testing: This contract will include, within each year, the option for the government to procure covid tests for use by the Mat Sinking Unit and Dredge Jadwin along with testing services at the Vicksburg Harbor.
