Contractor personnel shall possess and demonstrate advisor and mentor qualifications drawn from prior experience across traditional U.S. military and governmental staff functions and at skill levels of increasing experience. The U.S. Government (USG) shall not exercise any supervision or control over the contract service providers performing the services herein. Such contract service providers shall be accountable solely to the Contractor who, in turn is responsible to the USG.

1.1 Description of Services/Introduction: The contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, supplies, facilities, transportation, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and non-personal services necessary to perform dedicated in-depth advising, mentoring, training, subject matter expertise , and programmatic support to NATO’s Headquarters (HQ), Resolute Support (RS) and the Train, Advise and Assist Commands (TAAC) staffs to assist the MoI and ANP forces in assuming full responsibility for their own security needs as defined in this Performance Work Statement (PWS) except for those items specified as USG furnished property and services. The contractor shall perform to the standards in this contract.

1.2 Background: The goal for CSTC-A support to the MoI and ANP is a ministerial development program that synchronizes development of primarily the MoI and ANP organizations with the development of management and operational systems. Vertical and horizontal integration of systems is achieved through advisory and mentor meetings and other functional boards. The CSTC-A, RS and TAAC staffs responsible for advising and mentoring the MoI and ANP ranges in functional support from a traditional military staff composed of CJ1, CJ2, CJ3 through CJ8 following traditional U.S. and NATO organizations to special staff established specifically for the MoI such the Acquisition and Contracting, Army Institutional Advisory Team, Training and Doctrine, Detainee Operations, Medical, Religious and Culture Awareness, Equal Opportunity and Gender Equality, Ground Forces Command, and Ministerial and General Staff Development. The CSTC-A focus is on building organizational capacity and capability.

The staffs relies on contractor support with prerequisite skills to develop the core management and operational systems essential to enable the ministry to independently plan, program, and manage their nation and police.

1.3 Objectives: The objective for this effort is for the contractor to advise, mentor, train, and provide expertise to MoI/ANP personnel in developing specific governmental systems. Contractor personnel shall possess and demonstrate mentor qualifications drawn from prior experience across traditional U.S. military and governmental staff functions and at skill levels of increasing experience.

1.4 Scope: The purpose of the Afghanistan MoI Advisory Program Support is to procure contractor services of qualified personnel to provide dedicated in-depth mentoring, training, subject matter expertise, and programmatic support to CSTC-A staff and the Afghan MoI focused on the missions, functional areas, and tasks listed in the Performance Work Statement (PWS). Services include support to assist the MoI and associated ANP forces in assuming full responsibility for their own security needs. This describes senior mentoring, ministerial mentoring, subject matter expertise and training tasks where the tasks and goals are structured and defined. The changing nature of the security environment and the differences in organizational maturity within the MoI makes progress and outcome measurement difficult to attribute to either the contractor, the USG or NATO. The contractor shall accomplish developing the core management and operational systems essential to enable the ministry to independently plan, program, and manage their army.

1.5 Period of Performance: The period of performance shall be for fifteen (15) months. The Period of Performance reads as follows:.
