STATEMENT OF WORK

For

The Mobile Detection Deployment Program Contract

I. Background

The Department of Homeland Security has created the “Mobile Detection Deployment Program” (MDDP) which enhances radiological and nuclear detection and interdiction capabilities by deploying equipment and technical support personnel during mission partner counter-terrorism operations, and events of national significance. Mobile Detection Deployment Units (MDDU) may be deployed in support of national special security events (NSSE), significant state and local special events, multiagency training and exercise activities, and to augment steady-state surge operations focused on criminal smuggling pathways. MDDUs are a national radiological and nuclear (R/N) detection “surge” asset designed to augment and supplement existing stakeholders’ detection and reporting capabilities. Chemical and Biological detection equipment will be added to the MDDP in future years.

This Statement of Work (SOW) references the requirements to acquire deployable field management and scientific support services for the MDDP, which constitutes the contractual arrangements between the selected vendor and DHS MDDP pursuant to Public Law No: 119-75.

II. Scope of Work The objective of this Statement of Work is to obtain contract support services for MDDP. DHS procures, maintains and deploys MDDU to assist stakeholders in detecting CBRN threats. There are six MDDU (truck – trailer) that contain detection equipment to include mobile detection systems, portable detection backpacks, handheld radio-isotope identification devices, and personal radiation detection devices. MDDUs are strategically positioned at DHS components throughout the United States. MDDU deployments are accompanied by technical support staff members to train personnel on the use of equipment, to help integrate these capabilities into existing operations, and provide guidance and recommendations as needed.

Funding will be utilized to deploy, maintain and operate the MDDUs for:

1. NSSE / SEAR: Enhanced steady state (ESS) operations are augmented operations in support of a planned security related event or as part of a coordinated response to a threat involving RN materials or devices. ESS operations augment the SS posture by introducing additional capabilities to increase the probability of detecting RN materials out of regulatory control.

An ESS posture occurs as the result of a deliberate decision by domestic first responder partner leadership in a particular geographic region to increase RN detection capability for a period of time within a particular area. During a threat involving RN material, additional information may be provided via established mechanisms among mission partners based upon intelligence and investigative information to further enable the probability of detection within defined jurisdictions.

2. Steady-State / Surge Operations: These deployments represent day-to-day PRND operations, which are overlaid on existing mission areas as part of a daily routine regardless of a potential or actual threat. Surge operations provide a multi-layered approach to R/N detection efforts and include R/N detection operations conducted on a routine basis by federal and domestic first response partner assets to detect or locate R/N materials out of regulatory control and associated event reporting. Partners in this context may include DHS

For components, federal interagency partners, and domestic first response agencies engaged in the PRND mission. Related operations include routine law enforcement or counterterrorism activities, such as border security, cargo security, and immigration enforcement. These are decentralized, single or multi-agency operations within defined jurisdictions.

3. Training & Exercise: MDDP units or equipment may be used to support DHS approved training and exercise activities with operational partners.

Support staff will consist of a Project Manager, and both on-site/off-site personnel.

• Project Manager will include (1) full time person that works in coordination with the DHS

MDDP Head Quarters staff as outlined in Section III.

• On-site staff will include full-time and part-time personnel based at the six designated locations who will be responsible for all aspects of the MDDP maintenance and deployments as outlined in Section III.

• Part-time, task-based staff are allowable for temporary coverage for on-site full-time staff as outlined in Section III.

• Off-site personnel will include part-time, task-based personnel to support deployments as outlined in Section III.
