PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

Performance Work Statement For

PART 1. General Information

1.1 Introduction. The GRIDS III contract is designated as the primary AGC vehicle to obtain services for non-inherently governmental functions that exceed organic capabilities in supporting the research and development efforts of the AGC. The GRIDS III contract is designed to provide services through a MATOC necessary to acquire special skills, systems engineering and technical services to perform research and development activities that relate to rapid development, limited fielding and geospatial technology services for the warfighter as defined in this Performance Work Statement (PWS).

1.2 Background. The AGC is a direct reporting center under the USACE and is the Army Knowledge Center for Geospatial Expertise. It serves as a key enabler of the Army Geospatial Enterprise (AGE) - an integrated system of technologies and processes that delivers a geospatial Common Operational Picture to the Warfighter. The AGC provides geospatial support and products to Warfighters, to support the Army's Battle Command Systems, facilitating dissemination of relevant geospatial information to every level across the battlefield environment. AGC coordinates, integrates, and synchronizes geospatial information requirements and standards across the Army, as well as develops and fields geospatial enterprise-enabled systems and capabilities to the Army and Department of Defense (DoD).

1.3 Objectives. AGC requires prime contractors with the capability to manage multiple task orders simultaneously at multiple locations. The contractor must also be capable of providing the corporate knowledge and technical capabilities necessary to assist in coordination, integration and synchronization of geospatial information requirements and standards across the Army; develop geospatial enterprise enabled systems for the Army and the DoD and provide direct geospatial support to the Warfighter.
