1.1 Introduction
1.1.1 The United States Army Yuma Proving Ground (USAYPG) is located near the Arizona- California border, approximately 26 miles north of the City of Yuma, Arizona. USAYPG is 1,300 square miles, and has the size to allow Army weapon systems to fully exercise their capabilities without endangering the public, the isolation to avoid encroachment, the climate, and vegetation to avoid environmental issues, and the sea level altitude critical for a helicopter test center. USAYPG is in the Sonoran Desert, an area of great similarity in both terrain and climate to the Middle East. USAYPG is the Army Desert Environmental Test Center. USAYPG holds the distinction of being one of the largest military installations in the world. As part of the Army Test and Evaluation Command (ATEC), the mission of USAYPG is to perform developmental testing on various commodities that support the soldier in the field. The principal commodities are munitions and weapons systems, automotive and soldier support systems, combat systems and air delivery systems. ATEC tropical test are conducted in Panama, Hawaii and Puerto Rico and cold weather tests in Alaska are also under the purview of
USAYPG.
1.1.2 The Logistics Readiness Center (LRC) Office at USAYPG serves as principal advisor to the Commander and staff on all matters pertaining to the logistical support of the installation and its assigned mission and to plan for and furnish logistical support, guidance, and assistance to USAYPG elements, tenant, and transient activities. The Yuma Proving Ground (YPG) LRC consists of three primary divisions: Plans and Operations (P&O); Installation Supply & Services Division (ISSD); and the Installation Transportation Division (ITD). ISSD provides supply & services support to include Consolidated Installation Property Book Office, Supply Support Activity (SSA) and hazardous material (HAZMAT) operations. ITD provides Personal Property Operations, Materiel Movements, and Equipment Pool (EP) (i.e., trailers, tractors, buses, GSA vehicles, etc). Tasks in the P&O Division are inherently governmental and not a contractor’s requirement. Current supported units include all DoD organizations located at YPG and as referenced in Technical Exhibit (TE) 1G-001, USAYPG Supported Organizations. For additional open source information on USAYPG please refer to the information available at www.army.mil.
1.1.3 The United States Government uses a performance based format to provide the descriptions, instructions, and references in this document. Each section of this document contains a table of contents where the primary task areas / actions/ requirements are identified (Section 5 in particular). This approach relies upon the experience of knowledgeable contractors to employ innovative techniques necessary to deliver successful work plans, staffing strategies and management approaches. As such, not all actions, responsibilities, requirements, constraints, or considerations associated with working in this flexible work environment are addressed.
Requirements in each performance area (general, supply, and transportation) identify the required service or deliverable. The Government provides additional details or references when experience indicates a need exists to drive a specific effective and efficient outcome. The presence of these additional details or the absence of these details reflect the performance-based nature of this format and should not be construed to mean this performance based document lists all implied tasks necessary to achieve the successful level of performance. Referenced publications, regulations, and guidance in this PWS provide specific performance metrics; the contractor, subcontractors and its agents or representatives (herein the contractor) must adhere to those metrics unless specific relief has been given, in writing, by the contracting officer. Failure to meet the contract requirements (i.e.
metrics, such as work exceeding the times stated in the maintenance allocation chart or standards identified in this document), may result in a corrective action request (CAR), contract discrepancy report (CDR), cure notice, and loss of fee or termination.
January 2017 Section C – 1 Page 2
1.1.4 All work under this effort is subject to periodic inspection and on-the-spot performance assessment. All performance assessments and periodic inspection results will be supplied in writing describing the positive, neutral or negative results or determination(s). In the event the contractor is found to have failed to comply with contract requirements, corrective action will be initiated. The corrective action process will be governed by the applicable rules and regulations and administered by the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR). Minor issues will normally be handled onsite with a Corrective Action Request (CAR) being issued at the discretion of the COR. For more serious issues and unresolved minor issues (to include repetitive minor problems) the COR may issue the contractor a CDR through the KO (Contracting Officer). The KO will present the CDR to the contractor with instructions. The Government reserves the right to seek consideration in the event of un-resolved contract discrepancies and serious incidents impacting the effort.
1.2 Scope of Effort
1.2.1 The contractor shall provide the appropriate amounts of qualified labor and management necessary to perform all logistics support services (to include functions required to perform named tasks) ordered under this task order in a cost effective, safe and environmentally sound manner. This support will focus primarily on the following areas: Supply and Transportation Services and the associated logistics analysis and management functions in support of the Yuma Proving Ground LRC mission.
1.2.1.1 Notwithstanding the inclusion of FAR 52.216-21 in this this task order, any maintenance, supply, and transportation tasks currently being performed by an Ability One contractor or under a contract accepted by the Small Business Administration within the 8(a) program at Yuma Proving Ground, or subsequently determined appropriate for performance by an Ability One contractor or accepted by the Small Business Administration for inclusion within the 8(a) program, are not included within the scope of this EAGLE requirements task order.
1.2.2 Work performed under this task order is not limited by current customer lists, program names or acronyms, or funding sources. All work within the scope of the effort is contemplated for inclusion in this task order. The preponderance of work under this task order will be conducted by the contractor at or in Government-owned and furnished facilities (GFF); support is to be provided throughout Yuma Proving Ground and its adjacent areas. These areas will include: unit facilities;
range/field locations; other Government facilities; and by exception, at off-post / to-be-determined locations.
1.2.3 The contractor will be the primary logistics provider on the installation and shall be responsible for all aspects of performance. This Performance Work Statement provides a general depiction of the types and kinds of non-personal services that may be ordered. Contractor personnel are employees selected by the contractor and solely under its administrative control and supervision.
The specific efforts required of the contractor are those task areas detailed in this document. The contractor will perform non-personal services in these primary areas. The contractor will be required to ensure all supporting requirements (implied tasks) required to fulfill the primary task areas are accomplished to standard using industry best practices, while continuously working toward reducing costs without increasing risk or sacrificing quality. The contractor shall ensure compliance with all applicable local, state and federal laws, regulations and policies. In the event of a conflict between any law, ordinances, construction codes, or regulations, the more stringent rule shall apply. Additionally, the contractor will ensure all work meets critical reliability rates or
January 2017 Section C – 1 Page 3 tolerances specified either in the PWS, identified by industry best practice, applicable technical manual or other publication cited within this document.
1.2.4 The Army’s Materiel Enterprise and supporting programs continue to evolve and are directly linked to continued Army operations. Support requirements will continue to change over the life of this task order. Efforts may increase, decrease or cease as Contingency Operations are carried out.
The contractor’s roles, responsibilities, mission and functional areas will likely change, while still remaining within the general scope of this PWS. The information set forth herein is not necessarily all-inclusive and will typically change throughout the life of this contract to keep pace with program decisions, service requirements and technology. However, any effort that involves support, or is required to accomplish support, within the aforementioned task areas to any designated entity are included in the scope of this effort.
1.2.5 The installation logistics workload is provided in TE 1 M-S-T-001 Minimum Functional Labor Category 1 Hours.
1.3 Contractor Personnel Requirements
1.3.1 The services provided under this contract are strictly non-personal in nature. Under this contract, no employer-employee relationship will exist between the Government and the contractor and/or between the Government and the contractor’s employees. No contractor employee will be directly supervised by the Government. All individual employee assignments, and daily work direction, shall be given by the contractor. If the contractor believes any Government action, inaction or communication would create a personal services relationship, or appearance of, between the Government and any contractor employee, the contractor shall promptly notify the contracting officer. Additionally, the contractor shall ensure all contracted employees fully understand the Government–contractor relationship. All contractor employees must be fully aware that Government personnel do not have direct authority over contractor personnel. Additionally, all contractor employees must fully understand that only the KO has the authority to change the terms of the contract and only the KO has authority to direct work. Both the KO & COR can provide guidance.
1.3.2 The contractor shall provide the appropriate amount of personnel with required training, skills and experience in order to accomplish the work required under this PWS. Additionally, the contractor must exercise due diligence in its hiring practices to validate required skills and ensure employee probity. Moreover, the contractor shall provide its employees with detailed instruction on Government policies and regulations in the areas of safety, security, and environmental compliance as they pertain to the operations specified or implied in this PWS and subsequent modifications. The contractor shall not allow any employee that is not certified, trained or licensed for a particular task to perform such work.
1.3.2.1 The Government has determined that certain positions for the purpose of ensuring the contractor can satisfy minimum experience, education and/or credential requirements are key and essential. A list of these positions is provided in TE 1G-005 Key and Specified Non Key Positions. The contractor shall provide the definitive listing and associated Resumes of all its key personnel to the contracting officer within ten (10) calendar days after notice to proceed date. Key positions must be filled within 24 hours of being vacated, as a temporary mitigation and filled within 30 days with a permanent employee. The Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) must be notified immediately upon temporary replacement of key personnel and the contracting officer must be notified within 72 hours. Key personnel will not be permanently replaced without prior notification of the contracting officer. Prior to employment, the contractor will provide a resume for personnel proposed to
January 2017 Section C – 1 Page 4 permanently fill key positions. The Government reserves the right to review qualifications.
Contractor personnel that are in or expected to fill a key position may require a SECRET security clearance at time of notice to proceed. Named Key Positions are to be not less than one (1) FTE.
CDRL PM-01 Contractor Employee Information CDRL PM-02 Key Position Resumes
1.3.2.1.1 The Government has also determined that certain positions are vital to the effort, but may not require clearances or other specific attributes for success of the effort. Although these positions are not key, the Government has determined that these personnel are likely to have skills or knowledge that is distinct to supporting this effort and are needed to enhance mission performance and allow flexibility within each task area. These positions may or may not be Service Contract Act applicable (e.g. travel office customer support). These key positions are listed in TE 1G-005 Key and Specified Non Key Positions. The contractor need not provide resumes for non-key personnel but shall provide TE 1G-002 Contractor Employee Information List.
CDRL PM-01: Contractor Employee Information

1.3.2.2 The contractor shall establish and maintain an appropriate employee occupational reliability program (ORP). The ORP, a formal security and safety reliability program, will serve to ensure that individuals working in positions afforded access to certain materials, facilities, and programs are contractor-certified to meet the highest standards of reliability and physical and mental suitability before such access is granted. The ORP must identify which positions are required to be certified in accordance with the appropriate local guidance, Federal laws, and Army regulations (e.g., AR 190-11 for arms, ammunition and explosives). The contractor shall ensure all required interviews, background checks, and forms are up to date and on file at all times. Requirements vary by activity;
therefore, the contractor shall be responsible for determining the training, documentation and suitability for its employees and shall comply appropriately. The contractor’s ORP is subject to Government review. Failure to establish and maintain a suitable ORP will be grounds for negative contract actions up to and including termination.
1.3.2.3 The contractor shall develop a training program addressing both Government training and contractor-provided training to ensure contractor personnel are trained and required skills are maintained to accomplish the requirements of this effort. Additionally, the contractor will be advised of mandatory Government sponsored training (e.g., anti-terrorism training) and shall request, in writing, authorization for additional training to be approved by the KO. The Government will, at its discretion, provide training to support new systems and upgrades to existing systems and equipment required to be fielded. When the Government provides specific training for contractor employees, the employee must pass the training, otherwise the Government will not reimburse contractor for costs associated with the training, to include travel and per diem. The Government will not fund additional training costs if the employee which received the specific training is terminated or resigns.
All contractor personnel attending cost-reimbursable seminars, symposiums, or user group conferences must be justified by the contractor that attendance is mandatory for the performance of
January 2017 Section C – 1 Page 5 a task order requirement and must have COR concurrence and KO approval. Approvals will be obtained in accordance with FAR 31.205. The contractor shall maintain records of all accomplished training.

1.3.11 The contractor shall establish a drug-free workplace and ensure all employees are drug-free, verified prior to their start of work on this effort. The contractor will establish a random drug screening program with testing (≥10% of its employee population per month) that requires every employee to be tested at least once yearly. The contractor will not allow any employee who has possession of, or who is under the influence of alcohol or illegal / hazardous drugs to perform work under this effort. Additionally, the contractor will follow testing guidelines of AR 600-85 & DoDI

When appliacable, contractor employees with access to restricted areas or classified data will be subject to additional security requirements. Upon request, the contractor shall ensure employees complete questionnaires and other forms for applicable security levels. Failure to obtain required security clearances will not constitute a reason for non-performance. The contractor is responsible to ensure anyone requiring access to information has the appropriate clearance.
1.3.13 All contractor personnel required to access a Government installation or computer network in performance of their duties under this effort must possess a Common Access Card (CAC) if otherwise eligible; non-CAC eligible Contractor employees must possess the appropriate Government issued identification for entry to the installation (e.g. DA Form 1602), as required. The Government will issue a CAC to all qualified contractor employees performing work under this contract in accordance with Homeland Security Presidential Directive-12 (HSPD-12), Office of Management and Budget (OMB) guidance M-05-24, Federal Information Processing Standards Publication (FIPS PUB) Number 201, and the Department of Defense, and Directive Type Memorandum (DTM) 08-003. Upon notice to proceed the contractor will provide the name, telephone number, and e-mail contact information for their Facility Security Officer (FSO) or Security PPOC through the KO to the servicing Government Security Office. The servicing Government Security Office will contact the FSO/POC and provide specific instructions on the electronic submission of background investigations (SF 85 and FD 258 Fingerprint Card) in accordance with HSPD-12 and OPM guidance. The servicing Government Security Office will provide verification of existing investigations for personnel transitioning from other contracts. The Government reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to refuse to issue a CAC to any employee or to revoke one for security or other reasons. The contractor must have a pre-hiring system in place to ensure probability and eligibility to receive a favorably adjudicated NAC-I.
1.3.13.1 Contractors that require a CAC (before CAC issuance) must, at a minimum, have a favorably adjudicated National Agency Check with inquiries (NACI) or an equivalent or higher investigation in accordance with Army Directive 2014-05. The contractor employee will be issued a CAC only if duties involve one of the following: (1) Physical access to a DoD facility and/or access, via logon, to DoD networks on-site or remotely; (2) Remote access, via logon, to a DoD network using DoD-approved remote access procedures; or (3) Physical access to multiple DoD facilities or multiple non-DoD federally controlled facilities on behalf of the DoD on recurring basis for a period of 6 months or more.
At the discretion of the sponsoring activity, an initial CAC may be issued based on favorable review of the FBI fingerprint check and successfully scheduled NACI at the Office of Personnel Management.
1.3.13.2 Contractors that do not require a CAC, but require access to a DoD facility or installation shall comply with adjudication standards and procedures using the National Crime Information Center Interstate Identification Index (NCIC-III) and Terrorist Screening Database (TSDB) (Army Directive 2014-05/AR 190-13), applicable installation, facility and area commander

1.3.14 The contractor shall be responsible for out processing its personnel. In accordance with FAR 52.204-9 all out-processing documentation shall be provided to the COR.
CDRL PM-05: Employee Installation Clearing Report
1.4 Contractor Planning, Resource Management
1.4.1 The contractor’s normal duty hours will be commensurate with the work being performed or as needed in order to properly support the installation, customer, or unit. The hours of operation shall be in accordance with TE 1G-003, Hours of Operation, excluding Federal holidays. The contractor may request variations in hours for particular area of effort in order to provide better support or reduce cost. Additionally, requests to modify hours due to holidays or other events may be submitted. Any variations from the normal hours must be approved by the COR; and the KO if there are costs involved.
1.4.1.1 If the Senior Mission Commander or Installation (Garrison) manager declares an installation ‘closed’ or road conditions ‘red’ or ‘black’ [or otherwise deemed unsafe for routine travel/use] due to inclement weather, the contractor will determine which, if any employees will be required for, or shall continue on, duty. Any employees not able to report will be absent in accordance with FAR 52.249-14, excusable delays. The labor costs of absent employees due to weather or other allowable causes are not reimbursable. At no time will the contractor invoice the Government for work not performed (absent or early departure as listed above). The remuneration of contractor employees for lost time due to weather or other allowable causes is at the sole discretion of the company and is not an allowable cost under this effort.
1.4.1.2 The Federal Government observes the following holidays and except for emergencies, 24/7 operations, or as otherwise noted in this PWS or subsequent modifications, Government personnel in CONUS locations (to include Alaska and Hawaii) will not be available on the following days:
New Year’s Day First day of January (or as observed) Martin Luther King, Jr. Birthday Third Monday of January Presidents Day Third Monday of February Memorial Day Last Monday of May Independence Day Fourth day of July (or as observed) Labor Day First Monday of September Columbus Day Second Monday of October Veterans Day 11th day of November (or as observed) Thanksgiving Day Fourth Thursday of November Christmas Day 25th day of December (or as observed)
1.4.1.3 Installation Commanders historically grant military personnel (Enlisted and Officers) training holidays (for example, Christmas Exodus) in addition to the ten Federal holidays listed above. Training holidays are not considered a day of excused absence for the Government civilian work force or contractor employees. If a training holiday affects scheduled Contract work or access to facilities, the work in affected facilities may be rescheduled to compensate for the training holiday.
However, announced training holidays or Exodus of military personnel may provide the contractor
January 2017 Section C – 1 Page 9 with an opportunity for unrestricted access to facilities/areas or uninterrupted performance of work (i.e. training facility/area maintenance and supply inventories). The contractor shall take full advantage of such opportunities by planning maintenance or other activities that are better accomplished when Military personnel are not present or using required / supported facilities.
1.4.1.4 The contractor is expected to adjust normal workday personnel support requirements to reduce any requirements for overtime. Overtime hours are normally required to respond to emergencies, unusually heavy workloads, and unexpected situations that may occur due to unforeseen service requirements. If circumstances indicate the potential need for overtime in order to accomplish a task, the contractor shall request in writing the overtime hours to the COR for endorsement. The COR will then submit the endorsed contractor’s overtime hours request to the KO and obtain written approval from the KO in advance of the work. The KO’s written approval will be provided to the contractor and the COR. Overtime rates shall be reimbursed at the required rates in the Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) or Service Contract Act (SCA) respectively or at the rate(s) proposed and accepted for SCA positions. For the reimbursement of overtime for Exempt positions, if applicable, those labor rates shall be negotiated prior to the incurrence of any costs. All overtime requests will include the overtime rates to be charged, the estimated number of hours applicable at each rate (both exempt and non-exempt if applicable) and the estimated total charge associated with the overtime request. This estimated total, when approved by the KO, represents the not to exceed amount. Additional approval must be sought prior to exceeding the estimated total.
Overtime will not be authorized to compensate for shortcomings in contractor performance.
Approvals for using overtime shall ordinarily be prospective, but, if justified by emergency circumstances, approvals may be retroactive. In the event of an emergency and the KO is unavailable to provide written approval prior to the commencement of the work, the contractor will document the necessity for the overtime and submit in writing, along with COR concurrence, to the KO for approval. It is the responsibility of the contractor to verify sufficient funds are available to cover the expense associated with the overtime. The KO will provide retroactive approval, assuming confirmation of availability of sufficient funds, in writing per FAR 22.103-4 (i) for work performed which has been justified appropriately and meets the guidelines established in this paragraph.
1.4.2 The contractor shall address, in detail, its procedures, personnel, and the means to accomplish mission requirements without delay in the event of sudden or unusual events that could impact the contractor's performance and contract requirements such as, but not limited to mobilization, terrorism, natural disaster, utility outages, or labor disputes. The Government will not supplement the contractor’s work force. The contractor shall ensure personnel required to accomplish tasks designated as ‘mission essential personnel’ report to assigned work locations (or Government Continuity of Operations Plan (COOP) designated facilities) and perform required tasks, regardless of weather or security conditions. Government will identify tasks qualifying performers as essential personnel as applicable with the contractor providing a list of essential personnel required to perform those tasks to the COR. The COR will be responsible for providing Government security personnel with a list of contractor ‘mission essential personnel’ to enable access to Government facilities when ‘non-essential’ personnel are barred. Contractor will operate in accordance with DoDI 1100.22, ‘Continuation of Essential DoD Contractor Services during Crisis’.
The contractor shall include a strike contingency plan as part of its Plan in accordance with FAR Clause 52.222.1, Notice of Labor Disputes. The contingency plan will be submitted to the Government as specified in CDRL PM-06.
CDRL PM-06: Contingency Plan
1.4.2.1 The contractor shall support contingencies and provide services in the event of natural disasters, uprisings, civil disturbances, and other crises. Contingency operations of this nature will
