PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

The work under this contract shall be performed in accordance with the following Performance Work Statement (PWS) and in accordance with any other terms, conditions and requirements reflected herein.

Background: Puget Sound Naval Shipyard & Intermediate Maintenance Facility (PSNS & IMF) Code 200 (Engineering Department) has had a long history of having a Marine Design and Engineering Services contract in place. The driving force behind this is, essentially, a fluctuating workload such that available Government resources in place at PSNS & IMF do not have the capacity to handle large surges in workload associated with ship repair and conversion. These contracts have given PSNS & IMF the flexibility to maintain a lean workforce, and still be able to fulfill the needs of its customers, in spite of workload surges. This requirement was previously fulfilled via contracts N4523A-19-D-1301 (Tridentis), N4523A-19-D-1302 (Gryphon Marine), and N4523A-19-D-1303 (Huntington Ingalls Industries).

1. SCOPE

1.1 The Contractor, subject to the provisions hereinafter set forth, shall establish a full service office in Kitsap County, Washington, within thirty (30) calendar days of contract award. A full service office is defined as an office capable of completing work set forth in this paragraph (also see the Section C contract provision titled “Location of Contractor’s Facility” and the Section F contract provision titled “Place of Performance”).

1.2 All deliverables prepared pursuant to this contract shall be subject to review and approval by the Commander, Puget Sound Naval Shipyard and Intermediate Maintenance Facility (PSNS & IMF), or a duly authorized Shipyard representative. Performance of the work shall be under the cognizance of the Chief Engineer, PSNS & IMF, or a duly authorized shipyard representative.

1.3 The requirements are to provide marine design and engineering services for PSNS & IMF. In connection with the performance of this work, the Contractor shall provide comprehensive services for all current and former U.S. Naval vessels, ships, craft and boats in the areas of naval architecture, civil, structural, mechanical, electrical, electronics, industrial, and environmental engineering. The work will include planning and estimating, engineering designs and calculations, technical research, material specifications, kitting support, troubleshooting and failure mode analysis, assessments and inspections, testing, grooming, minor repair and alignment of equipment, work control, testing and test direction, logistics support, oversight and technical support of industrial work, training, and detailed reports based on engineering studies and analysis relating to marine vessels and equipment (including but not limited to cranes, caissons and similar equipment used to support ship repairs, overhaul and dismantling). The requirements also include Computer Aided Design (CAD) drafting and modeling, computer programming and support services, and technical document preparation, publication and reproduction. Planning Yard requirements include ship checks, drawing development, Ship Alteration Record (SAR) and Ship Change Documents (SCD) development, Ship Selected Record (SSR) upkeep, and fleet technical support. The requirements include the need to install, monitor, test and troubleshoot equipment and minor installation/repair/replacement of components, equipment, and systems associated with various assessments and inspections.

1.4 The Contractor shall, in cooperation with and subject to the approval of the Government, perform all the work required hereunder in accordance with recognized professional standards in the field (see paragraph 3). It is recognized that problems may arise during the performance of the work that may be resolved more expeditiously by discussion in the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard and Intermediate Maintenance Facility and therefore, close liaison between the Contractor and the Government must be maintained. In view of this, face-to-face meetings at Shipyard facilities shall be scheduled as required by the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) to discuss the Contractor’s work-in-progress.

1.5 The Contractor may be required to perform work at Government facilities.

1.6 Performance is primarily expected to be in Kitsap County, WA (90%). Other areas of performance include San Diego, CA, and Norfolk, VA (10 %). Additional possible locations include, but are not limited, to Jacksonville, FL, Kings Point, GA, Guam, Hawaii, the Far East and Middle East operating areas and the

Mediterranean. The contract will require the contractor(s) to have a full service office facility located within Kitsap County, WA.

1.7 No Government Furnished Property (GFP) is presently anticipated for use under this contract.

However, access to reference documents and data may be provided as needed, including drawings, technical manuals, and electronic media files required for accomplishment of task orders.

Those qualifications will then become the minimum standards for all personnel hired or relocated during the course of this contract for those categories.

5.1.4 The Contracting Officer and COR must be notified in writing within seven (7) calendar days after any personnel replacement action. If during the performance of the contract, the Contracting Officer or COR questions the adequacy of the qualifications of personnel occupying any labor category, the Contractor shall have the burden of establishing that the required qualifications are met by those personnel. The Contractor shall promptly provide resumes when requested by the Contracting Officer or COR.

5.2 LABOR CATEGORIES

The contract labor categories include the specific combinations of technical education, ability, and experience the Government considers necessary for performance of task order work. Labor categories are defined by the associated academic and experience qualifications set forth in this contract. For example, designations of “Engineer”, and “Senior Engineer”, when used, refer to progressive levels of competence and expertise, and imply an increasing complexity in the nature of assignments and a progressive increase in levels of responsibility. Each labor category is characterized in practice by a unique combination of three elements:

5.2.1 Nature of assignments handled is defined by the complexity of the job to be done and the techniques utilized to do it.

5.2.2 Level of responsibility is measured in terms of supervision received, guidelines and precedents utilized, and person-to-person contacts.

5.2.3 Qualifications are specified in terms of academic background, general and specialized experience.

5.3 GENERAL QUALIFICATIONS

5.3.1 For labor categories 01, 02, 03, 05, 06, 08, 10 and 12, the qualifications specified herein represent required minimum academic background and desired minimum level of experience. For labor categories 04, 07, 09, 11, 13, 14 and 15, the qualifications specified herein represent the required minimum acceptable qualifications.

5.3.2 For the purposes of this contract, technical personnel are divided into two (2) main groups:

professional and non-professional. Academic qualifications stated for each main group apply to all positions in that group. Experience qualifications differ, and are therefore set forth separately for the various labor categories.

5.3.3 A “professional” is one whose occupation requires advanced formal education and training, and the application of intellectual skills. A “professional” engineer or naval architect is one who performs non-routine engineering work which requires: (1) ability to apply scientific methodology to engineering problems, (2) comprehensive in-depth knowledge of the mathematical, physical, and engineering sciences which characterize an academic engineering curriculum, and (3) continuing intensive development of this knowledge and ability.

5.3.4 A “non-professional” is one whose occupation is technical or clerical in nature.

5.3.5 Military experience, per se, is not considered to be an acceptable qualification or substitute for work experience related to the knowledge and abilities needed to produce the deliverables or provide the services required by this contract. To merit any further consideration, a description of the individual’s actual duties, work assignments and responsibilities is required.
