EXHIBIT 4 – 111th MI BDE CONTRACT MANPOWER FACTORS

4.1 Structure and Manning Decision Review and Training Resources Arbitration Panel

4.1.1 In general, Army training load requirements are managed during an annual Structure and Manning Decision Review (SMDR) (see AR 350-10). The SMDR process establishes initial training requirements for the third Program Objective Memorandum (POM) year, validates for the second POM year, and fine tunes the training requirements for the first POM year. The training requirements, derived from the SMDR process, drives the number of instructors required (both military and DAC), and is reflected on organizational Table of Distribution and Allowances (TDA) as required and authorized (funded) positions.

4.1.2. There are two major processes, which influence contract instructor requirements for any course within the 111th MI Brigade, one is SMDR and the other is Training Resources Arbitration Panel (TRAP). Both of these processes are directly associated with the Army’s operational and organizational training requirements, and are subject to change rapidly.

4.1.3. Contract instructors generally fill the difference (Delta) between SMDR military instructor authorizations and what the Army can actually assign to a SMDR military instructor authorization. The Army’s personnel system is fluid, which makes it difficult to predict from year to year what, if any, potential contract instructor requirements are. It is not unusual for a Brigade course of instruction to be at 100 percent of its military instructor SMDR authorizations one year (no contract instructors required). And the very next year be manned at 80 percent of its military instructor SMDR authorizations (contract instructors required).

For example, if the 35F10, Intelligence Analyst Course, had a SMDR training load of 1500 students, it may require an authorization of 120 military instructors to train the student load. The 120 military instructor authorizations are annotated on the organizational TDA for the year of execution (determined three years earlier during the SMDR process). If the Army can only fill 80 percent of its military instructor authorizations, there would be a 20 percent delta, which could be filled with contract instructors. If the Army can fill all 120, authorized military instructor positions there would be no requirement for contract instructors during the training year. This reality changes from year to year.

4.1.4. The SMDR process brings some degree of planning into the training cycle; however, worldwide operational missions are in constant flux. Therefore, a process called the Training Resources Arbitration Panel (TRAP) is employed to manage and implement budget and execution year training program adjustments for personnel, equipment, facility and finances (AR 350-10). The impact of TRAP actions often requires a rapid acquisition of instructor personnel to meet the execution year adjusted training requirements.

4.1.4.1. A TRAP example would be similar to the following. If the 35F10, Intelligence Analyst Course, had a SMDR training load of 1500 students, but the Army determined it really needed to train 1800 students, a TRAP action is levied. The TRAP process attempts to determine the cost associated with “trapping up” the initial SMDR load of 1500 to 1800.

4.1.4.2. The actual number of contract instructors required is predicated upon the Army’s ability to make military personnel available to train the additional 300 Soldiers. If the Army cannot assign the required number of military instructors to meet the TRAP load, contract instructors may be employed. (Note – Department of Army Civilian instructor shortages are not filled with contract instructors).

4.1.4.3. Additionally, while the brigade may receive knowledge of TRAP requirements earlier than 90 days from point of need, the brigade seldom receives funding earlier than 90 days from point of need. Without validated resources, a contract action cannot be initiated. This translates to a rapid (90 days or less) "ramp-up" capability, which requires contracting companies to have the capability to address a short notice requirement.

EXHIBIT 5 – 1/100th MI BDE CONTRACT MANPOWER FACTORS

5. Factors Determining Contractor Instructor Requirements

5.1. In general, Army training load requirements are managed during an annual Structure and Manning Decision Review (SMDR) (see AR 350-10) and a Training Resources Arbitration Panel (TRAP). Both of these processes are directly associated with the Army’s training requirements, and are subject to change rapidly based upon the Army’s operational requirements.

5.2. Active Guard Reserve (AGR) military instructors (“full-time”) are assigned to the 1/100th BDE (MI) and are supplemented by Troop Program Unit (TPU) instructors (“part-time”) to teach all courses. Contract instructors are generally employed to fill the difference between what is required to teach a course and the personnel that 1/100th BDE (MI) has available to teach. The Army’s personnel system is a fluid environment, which makes it difficult to predict from year to year what, if any, contract instructor requirements are. It is not unusual for a given course to be at 100 percent of its military instructor AGR authorizations one year (no contract instructors required), and the very next year be manned at 80 percent of its military instructor AGR authorizations (contract instructors required).

5.3. Additionally, while the Brigade often receives knowledge of additional training requirements earlier than 90 days from point of need, we seldom receive the funding or the resource ability earlier than 90 days from point of need. Without validated resources, a contract action cannot be initiated. This translates to a rapid (90 days or less) "ramp-up" capability, which a Contractor would need the capability to address.

EXHIBIT 6 – HT-JCOE CONTRACT MANPOWER FACTORS

6. Training Instructors.

6.1 Requirements Management. HT-JCOE joint training load requirements are managed through an annual data call orchestrated by the Defense Intelligence Agency and approved by the Director, DIA, in his role as the Defense HUMINT Manager. The process establishes training requirements across the Defense HUMINT Enterprise (DHE) based on three priority levels for the Five Year Defense Plan. The DIA Director validates the final training load requirements for the first Program Objective Memorandum (POM) year, and HT-JCOE manages the apportionment of seats on behalf of the DHE Executors in the execution year. The training requirements, derived from the data call process, drives the number of instructors required.

6.2. Government Workforce. HT-JCOE Department of the Army Civilians are reflected on organizational Table of Distribution and Allowances (TDA) as required and authorized (funded) positions. Other service and DIA civilian instructors are assigned to the organization based on a “fair share” instructor resource model. With the exception of USMC, uniformed military instructors are currently assigned to the organization as Borrowed Military Manpower (BMM), as HT-JCOE manpower requirements will not be accounted in the Structured Manning Decision Review (SMDR) process until FY18. With this in mind, HT-JCOE is unable to satisfy all validated Priority 1 training load requirements, nor Training Resources Arbitration Panel (TRAP) requirements without contract instructor support.

6.3. Contract Workforce. For contract instructors, the two major processes outlined above, POM year validation and TRAP, influence contract instructor requirements for all courses within HT-JCOE. Both of these processes are directly associated with the DHE’s training requirements, and are subject to change rapidly based upon the DoD operational requirements

6.4. SMDR. While we expect HT-JCOE to be fully integrated into the SMDR process by FY19, the instructor SMDR authorizations essentially change every year due to the three year SMDR process and DoD operational requirements. Because SMDR requirements are determined three years at a time, during the POM cycle, the process does provide some measure of stability for planning and training management purposes.

6.4.1. Contract instructors generally fill the Delta between SMDR instructor authorizations and what the Military Services assign to an SMDR instructor authorization, and the Delta between instructor authorizations and any funded increases required to train the DIA Director approved increased requirements. The Services’ personnel systems are fluid environments, which will make it difficult to predict from year to year what, if any, contract instructor requirements may be. It would not be unusual for a given course to be at 90% of its instructor SMDR authorizations one year, and the very next year be manned at 70% of its instructor SMDR authorizations.

6.4.2 The SMDR process brings some degree of planning into the training cycle; however, worldwide operational missions are in constant flux. Therefore, a process called the Training Resources Arbitration Panel (TRAP) is employed to manage and implement budget and execution year training program adjustments for personnel, equipment, facility and finances. The impact of TRAP actions often requires a rapid acquisition of instructor personnel to meet execution year adjusted training requirements.

6.4.3. Additionally, while HT-JCOE may receive knowledge of TRAP requirements earlier than 90 days from point of need, we seldom receive funding or the resource ability earlier than 90 days from point of need. Without validated resources, a contract action cannot be initiated. This translates to a rapid (90 days or less) "ramp-up" capability, which a Contractor would need the capability to address.

6.5. Surveillance Role Players.

6.5.1. Work days are determined by the course training schedules and can include weekends and Federal holidays. Typical work hours include following students on 60 to 120 minute surveillance detection routes (SDR) plus an additional 30 minutes per route for administrative tasks. Contractor requirements may be from as little as two hours per day to as many as 12 hours per day. Additionally, the Surveillance Support Team (SST) Leads shall submit reports and, on some exercises, provide verbal feedback. Therefore, some Training Exercises could require an SSL Lead to have 16 hours between the start of the day and the end of the workday, with programmed breaks during the day.

6.5.2. Weather conditions will not generally affect surveillance detection tasks. The Defense Advanced Tradecraft Course (DATC) conducts three 93-day classes per year with approximately 36 students each. The third class of the year crosses over the fiscal year; therefore, some exercises will only occur twice during the period of performance. The Source Operations Course (SOC) conducts seven 70-day classes per year with 42 students each. The sixth and seventh classes historically cross over the fiscal year; therefore, some exercises may only occur four or five times during the period of performance.

6.6 Currently identified places of performance for all SOC and DATC exercises, except Solo Lite and Solo Flight are Ft. Huachuca, Sierra Vista, Davis-Monthan Air Force Base (DMAFB), and Tucson, AZ.

6.6.1. Currently identified place of performance for DATC exercise Solo Lite is Scottsdale, AZ.

6.6.2. Currently identified places of performance for DATC exercise Solo Flight are San Diego and San Francisco, CA, Portland, OR, Denver, CO, San Antonio, TX, and Chicago, IL.

6.6.3. The Government may require performance at other mid-western and western United States metropolitan locations with 45 days’ notice, and at various Contractor, subcontractor, and Government facilities within CONUS.

7. Structure and Manning Decision Review and Training Resources Arbitration Panel

7.1. In general, Army training load requirements are managed during an annual Structure and Manning Decision Review (SMDR) (see AR 350-10). The SMDR process establishes initial training requirements for the third Program Objective Memorandum (POM) year, validates for the second POM year, and fine tunes the training requirements for the first POM year.

Both of these processes are directly associated with the Army’s operational and organizational training requirements, and are subject to change rapidly.

7.3. Contract instructors generally fill the difference (Delta) between SMDR military instructor authorizations and what the Army can actually assign to a SMDR military instructor authorization.
