Statement of Work Surveillance Identification and Operations Course for 20th SFG (A) VENDOR will provide a 5-day Surveillance Identification & Operations Program course with a POI that provides 10 % classroom and 90 % hands-on exercises IAW the Fundamentals of Conducting Surveillance Operations (as covered in US Army FM 19-20, Chapter 2) and covers the following events.

1. STUDENT ORIENTATION: Program Overview; Student Field Training Equipment Issue; Surveillance Operations & Identification Program TLOs; Risk Assessment and Safety Rules; FM 19 -20 US Army Field Manual; Surveillance Operative Desired Characteristics; Fundamentals of Foot Surveillance; Fundamentals of Vehicle Surveillance; Expanding Observation Abilities; Fundamentals of Area Familiarization; Impact of Stress & Fatigue on Surveillance Team; The Value of Alternate Persona during Surveillance Mission; Fundamentals of Surveillance Identification; Fundamentals of Surveillance Report Construction; Disperse Alternate Persona Exercise Funds.

2. FUNDAMENTALS OF SURVEILLANCE OPERATIONS: Why Conduct Surveillance Operations - confirm or refute information; safeguard an informant or verify their information; monitor high risk activity; develop strategic intelligence into tactical intelligence; establish the identity and associations of unknown targets; prepare the battlefield for assaulters; Surveillance Terminology – Methods of Surveillance – Foot, Vehicle, Fixed; Types of Surveillance – Passive, Active; Degree of Surveillance – Loose, Close; and the Surveillance Cycle – Preparation, Acquire Target, Observe, Record, & Reporting; Surveillance Mission essential Tasks - Establish the Target’s Pattern of Movement; Observe the Target’s Deportment, Mannerisms, Habits; Determine the Target’s Personal & Professional Interests; Assess the Relationships between the Target and Contacts; Assess the Target’s Familiarity with the Area; Assess the Target’s Driving Ability; Determine if the Target is Exhibiting a Level of Surveillance Detection Training; and Determine if the Target is Working with a Team; Surveillance Team Member Characteristics - Ordinary Appearance; Ability to Act Naturally and In-tune with Surroundings; Alertness; Mental Endurance; Comfortable with Multi-tasking; Ability to Function Under Sustained Stress; Comfortable with Change; Reliable with Strong Work Ethic; Clear Thinker; Good Driver with Quick Reactions; Ability to Think in the Abstract; Utilizes Foresight; and Highly Self-Motivated; Fundamentals of Foot Surveillance - what TO DO during a surveillance mission, but also what NOT TO DO, e.g. Don’t Make Eye Contact with Target; Make Sudden Movements; Contrast with Background; Exhibit Erratic Behavior that will Alert Third Persons to Your Actions and Therefore to the Target; or Establish a Pattern Such as Following at the Same Distance for too long; Foot Surveillance Contingencies - Target Enters Building; Target Enters an Elevator; Target Enters a Restaurant, Bar, Shop; Target Enters a Hotel to Register; Target Takes a Taxi; Target Enters a Theater; Target Meets a Contact; Team Loses Target; Target Discovers Team Member; Target Uses Decoy; and Target Sets Trap; Foot Surveillance Preparation - Open-source Intelligence Gathering; Equipment Check; Contingency Practice; Communication Verification; Area Familiarization; and Supporting Unit Coordination; Fundamentals of Vehicle Surveillance - Maintain Observation on a Target that is in a Private Vehicle, Taxi, Bus etc.; Number of Surveillance Vehicles which dictates the Surveillance Method to be utilized; Surveillance Vehicle Team Member Positions; and Surveillance Vehicle Characteristics; Surveillance Assessment Missions – hands-on exercises.

3. FUNDAMENTALS OF SURVEILLANCE IDENTIFICATION: Foot Surveillance Identification Techniques - Detect 1-man, 2-man, 3-man, 4-man, or more Surveillance Teams who are conducting foot surveillance operations against U.S. personnel. Each Operator will practice effective tactics and techniques that will uncover, identify, and document enemy surveillance; make the Hostile Surveillance Team react with little to no warning; make them break pattern and contrast with their surroundings; Vehicle Surveillance Identification Techniques - Detect 1-Vehicle, 2-Vehicle, 3-Vehicle, 4-Vehicle, or more Surveillance Teams who are conducting vehicle surveillance operations against U.S. personnel; Checking Zone - a “pre-planned leg” of your route to or from a “job-site” conducive to pulling a Foot or Vehicle Surveillance Team into it where it can be more easily contrasted and identified; Gate Keepers use; Surveillance Detection Matrix use; Dry Cleaning Zone use; Area Familiarization Techniques - assist in determining where the Surveillance Team should set-up; help anticipate behavior; make target reacquisition quicker; and allow the Surveillance Team members to focus more on observing and less on navigation; Physical Appearance Quick Alteration Techniques - quick, low-tech ability to change hair style, color, apparent age, facial hair, eyewear, facial shape, and/or apparent occupation can significantly extend the viability of a Surveillance Operative or greatly assist in “Dry Cleaning” Phase of mission; Full Mission Profile - class will conduct a Surveillance Mission while simultaneously performing a Surveillance Identification Operation during a 24 hour Full Mission Profile Exercise.

Vendor will provide all direct labor, training material, supervision, facility, and all other items and services not Government-furnished necessary to conduct a Surveillance Identification & Operations training course in accordance with the statement of work:

--1 to 3 Instructor/Student ratio --Specifically trained Fulltime Gryphon Counter Surveillance Team as OPFOR --Vetted and Trained Fulltime Roll Players --Cameras, Radios, Recorders, Laptops --Read-ahead materials (prior to start of course)

20th SFG (A) will provide 1 rental vehicle per 2 students for use during the vehicular portions of the training. Vehicles will be full-sized sedan, minivan or SUV with tinted windows.
