Description of Services Background The United States Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM) provides global air, land, and sea transportation for the Department of Defense (DoD), both in times of peace and war through its Transportation Component Commands (TCCs): Air Mobility Command (AMC); Surface Deployment and Distribution Command (SDDC); and Military Sealift Command (MSC). USTRANSCOM provides synchronized transportation, distribution, and maintenance. Additionally, USTRANSCOM projects and maintains national power with the highest efficiency, the greatest speed and agility, and the most reliable level of trust and accuracy.
DoD Instruction (DoDI) 6000.11, Patient Movement, assigns the Commander of USTRANSCOM as the single manager for global patient movement and directs USTRANSCOM to develop and implement integrated patient movement regulation and evacuation processes. The Joint Publication (JP) 4-02 provides the doctrinal foundation for the patient movement system and clarifies DoD policy for patient movement of contaminated, contagious, or potentially exposed casualties. Supplemental guidance, USTRANSCOM Instruction (USTCI) 90-9, Roles and Functions, further assigns theatre patient movement requirements center processes and responsibilities to the USTRANSCOM Surgeon General (TCSG) and clarifies USTRANSCOM policy for patient movement of contaminated, contagious, or potentially exposed casualties.
The TRANSCOM Regulating and Command & Control Evacuation System (TRAC2ES) combines relevant doctrine, policies, processes, and procedures along with an automated decision support system to manage the DoD global patient movement process. TRAC2ES provides for patient movement monitoring, forecasting, and planning to support both fixed and deployable operations and includes medical regulating and patient evacuation. TRAC2ES provides in-transit visibility (ITV) and command & control decision support. TRAC2ES supports the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs (ASD(HA)), the Joint Staff, Combatant Commanders, and USTRANSCOM during war, peace, contingencies, and operations other than war.
At present, TRAC2ES Non-Secure Internet Protocol Router (NIPR) production environment is currently in the USTRANSCOM Unclassified Government Cloud (TC-UGC).
Objective The objective of this requirement is to provide software development support, Information Technology (IT) security, administration, and expertise for TRAC2ES NIPR and Secure Internet Protocol Router (SIPR) environments. This includes all software code and associated components and integrations. Software development support shall include any phase of the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC), including concept development, planning, requirements elicitation and analysis, systems design and development, coding and testing, deployment, implementation, integration, troubleshooting, security posture, documentation, software application maintenance, and sustainment.
Responsibilities include managing the code baseline, the hosted environment, and system interfaces. The code baseline may change as a result of user preference, latent defects, change requests, security requirements, or updates to Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) products used by the system. Additionally, production support to include troubleshooting and resolving user problems as well as identifying opportunities to improve the system is required in the performance of this effort. Overall, software development support shall include all aspects of the SDLC necessary to sustain and modify the system baseline.
Scope The purpose of this requirement is to provide software development support for TRAC2ES. The Contractor shall provide solution consulting and programming to: (1) implement new system capabilities; (2) implement software change requests; (3) sustain deployed capabilities by rapidly troubleshooting and repairing software issues (i.e. correct software defects); (4) provide technical expertise to ensure high availability of the application to meet the USTRANSCOM mission; (5) receive and respond to problems reported by system users (i.e. correct incidents); (6) support security documentation and continuous monitoring; and (7) improve the system’s security posture. The Contractor shall provide support in achieving the discipline of Development/Security/Operations (DevSecOps). The Contractor shall utilize the most current available USTRANSCOM Enterprise approved tools for achieving DevSecOps and maximize cloud services. The Contractor shall provide system functionality while reducing and/or eliminating dependency on individually licensed Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) products. This support shall include expertise with Java.
In addition, the Contractor shall provide support to build and maintain the TRAC2ES development and staging environments and maintain the TRAC2ES production environment in the USTRANSCOM – Unclassified Government Cloud (TC-UGC). Additionally provide support to maintain the classified on-premisis production environment and build and maintain the classified production environment when the TRANSCOM – Classified Government Cloud (TC-CGC) becomes available. The Contractor shall work closely with other members of the team to include Government Product Owners, engineers, security, and end-users.
The Government may require surge support during the base or any option period; surge modifications will be within the scope and provide increased support for the defined task areas of this PWS. Surge support over the life of the contract will not exceed 20% of the contractor’s total proposed cost/price for the base and all option periods, excluding any six-month extension of services pursuant to FAR 52.217-8. The Contractor shall coordinate with the Government to ensure that all activities are well synchronized and integrated with other USTRANSCOM and distribution management efforts. All functions and activities shall be task driven and work performed shall be in accordance with (IAW) all applicable regulations and guidelines.
References All references, including electronic libraries, can be found in Appendix A, References.
Performance Requirements The Contractor shall use a Government provided Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) tool (e.g. JIRA and Confluence) to effectively manage and execute the Agile Scrum methodology to analyze requirements, decompose large requirements into logical sub artifacts, create user story level artifacts and technical specifications (i.e. Epics or large features must be decomposed into user stories), coordinate with the appropriate subject matter experts (both technical and functional) to receive approved acceptance criteria for Epic/Task/Subtask level artifacts, set story points and establish a waterline to develop and test software, create test scripts and implement User Acceptance Testing (UAT), and keep artifact statuses updated (artifacts are the method for identifying a change with software which will be deployed into Production). To maintain predictable velocity, team members are encouraged to collaborate towards requirements completion and the developers shall complete the artifacts they commit in each software sprint. User stories and design documentation shall be maintained within the Government provided ALM tool. The technical release documentation shall document all changes and procedures necessary to promote a release into production.
The Government will assign requirements to the Contractor for fulfillment via the Government provided ALM tool. Each assigned requirement will have one (1) or more associated artifacts.
The software development sprint length shall be mutually agreed upon. Sprints may be a minimum of one (1) week but shall not exceed four (4) weeks in length, and result in releasable product.
Task Area 1: Task Order Management The Contractor shall provide the planning, direction, coordination, and control necessary to accomplish all requirements in this PWS. The Contractor shall designate key personnel responsible for the cost, schedule, and technical performance for the contract and shall serve as a primary Point of Contact (POC) for both management and technical matters. In addition, the Contractor shall participate in Program Management Reviews where the status of the work and associated deliverables are reviewed in the context of the business processes supported by the system.
Deliverables:
Task Order Management Plan (TOMP). The Contractor shall prepare a TOMP describing management’s plan to track the quality/timeliness of deliverables, organizational resources, and management controls to be employed to meet performance requirements.

The product roadmap shall include, at a minimum the current sprint, sprint+1, and sprint+2. The Contractor shall collaborate with the Contract Officer Representative (COR) to obtain the Government’s priority on software features and product updates.
Monthly Status Report (MSR) The Contractor shall provide an MSR that includes by task the financial performance, performance based on Net Ready-Key Performance Parameters (NR-KPP) identified in Paragraph 2, system availability, and schedule status. The MSR will include proposed changes to the schedule as detailed in the management plan as well as, technical accomplishments, issues and risks, and planned activities for the next reporting period. Any issue requiring Government response or action shall be brought to the Government’s attention immediately upon identification, and status captured in monthly reports.
This report will contain the calls and artifacts received and the actions taken during the reporting period. It shall correlate actions taken to other tasks or solutions that address resolving the reason for the artifact. Since the artifacts are assigned via the ALM tool, and the Contractor will enter results into the ALM tool, metrics associated with the responsiveness, quantity, and duration of the artifacts will be extracted directly from the ALM tool. The status report shall include a cumulative tally of all artifacts assigned to the most recently completed release that have not been previously reported. This tally shall include the release identifier, total number of artifacts assigned to a release per category, the category (e.g. established within the ALM tool such as Requirement, Change Request (CR), Defect), and a total sum of total artifacts across all categories. Further, the report shall contain a sum of artifacts (per category and overall total) that were planned for each sprint (i.e., above the waterline after sprint planning using story points), as well as the sum of artifacts that are accepted in User Acceptance Testing (UAT) (per category and overall total) and placed into production with the scheduled release.

The Contractor shall report and resolve any breaches, security attacks, or anomalies in activity. The Contractor shall use log collection, monitoring, and analysis to understand the relationship between network, infrastructure, servers, application framework, and user behavior to gain a comprehensive view across all activity, across all sources, servers, and locations. In the event of a Cyber incident or intrusion, the contractor shall conform to the policy outlined in the TRAC2ES Incident Response Plan. The Contractor shall report any detected cyber intrusions. Cyber incidents shall be documented in a Cyber Intrusion Incident Report. The incident report shall document and report loss/compromise, suspected compromise, suspicious contact, or activity involving systems accredited to process classified information. It may be used as a preliminary response to supplement national reporting requirements and provide a resource to document initial or first response to a Cyber incident.
Production Support Analysis The Contractor shall analyze problems and solutions to detect and report trends and “worst actor” features and/or processes. These recommendations shall consider the simplest solutions first. For example, a trend in user errors for entering data might be resolved by adding help text or changing data validations. On the other hand, recurring errors may require changes to functionality or the database. The Contractor’s expertise must be sufficient to support such an analysis and provide concise, actionable recommendations. For complex recommendations, the Contractor may have to collaborate with the Government or other Contractor personnel to create change specifications. Support analysis may also result in recommending changes to system documentation or training material.
System Data Analysis Support (Optional Task) – Pre-priced The Contractor shall provide advanced-level report query templates and data dashboards for functional users in support of patient movement operations and research. Using the business intelligence analytics tool, the Contractor will be available to respond to FMO requests for report query templates and data dashboards that can be downloaded.

Net Ready – Key Performance Parameters (NR-KPP) The Contractor shall ensure TRAC2ES meets all performance parameters and technical requirements identified in the current requirements specifications. The performance of each parameter shall be reported in the MSR. The system shall meet the NR-KPPs identified below.
Availability The ability for users to sign on and access the TRAC2ES system is paramount to the success of the program and this will be monitored by measuring the system’s ability to allow users to sign on and access the different TRAC2ES environments.
Availability is measured monthly by dividing the time (minutes) that the system was available by the total minutes within the month. This will include scheduled downtime.
An example:
· The month of September consists of 43,200 minutes
· The system was down 435 minutes in September, so the system was available 42,765 minutes
· 42,765 divided by 43,200 equals .9899
· Convert .9899 to a percentage format
· Availability = 98.99% There are different availability expectations, depending on the TRAC2ES system environment.
· TRAC2ES Production Availability (NIPR) = 99.3%
· TRAC2ES Production Availability (SIPR) = 99.3%
· TRAC2ES Exercise Availability = 99.3% The government will supply the format for the reporting that also details system and component degradation. Degradation may not directly affect availability, but it is an important indicator for the PEO for tracking performance trends. An important aspect of Availability reporting is to detail the items that affect availability, or might affect it in the future. The Contractor shall report on what is being done to mitigate these issues.
Production Support The Contractor shall respond to and resolve operational problems with the system. This task includes responding to incidents, analyzing and correcting specific incidents, creating software development artifacts for systemic problems requiring code changes, and following escalated tickets to resolution. Typical incidents to be resolved under this task include database updates for specific records with incorrect data, which involves determining the cause of the issue, correcting the database, and determining whether a code fix is necessary. Failover and recovery times are described in Table 4:
Table 4: Failover and Recovery Times
| Time to Full Recovery |
| Downtime allowed |
| Application A failure |
| 15 to 20 minutes |
| Max. 20 minutes |
| Database failure |
| 1 hour |
| Max. 1 hour |
| Availability zone failure (very rare) |

| Max. 1 hour |
| Patch maintenance |
| 15 to 20 minutes |
| None |
