Each employee shall work a 40-hour work week consisting of 8-hour days. The workday shall start between 0600 and 0800, and end between 1500 and 1700 depending on company policy for lunch periods. A regularly scheduled lunch break must be taken. The COR must approve, in advance, any deviation from the standard schedule, including any additional duty hours and all overtime supporting this requirement. The Contractor shall coordinate employees’ proposed normal workday schedules with the COR to ensure they will meet mission requirements before the employees’ start date.

4.2. Training. All Contractor personnel shall be trained and have the required certification to provide the support as defined in this PWS. The Government will only provide one-time training to the existing contractor personnel for new technology not previously identified that can be directly correlated to the tasks within the PWS.

The Contractor may be required to travel to various remote OCONUS locations, such as Southwest Asia, and may be required to perform under extreme conditions. The Government will provide the Contractor a Letter of Authorization (LOA) for billeting, meals, and other amenities as required. The Government and the Contractor will fulfill all current regulatory and policy requirements before travel.

4.3.1.2. The Contractor shall coordinate all contractor travel requirements with appropriate Government personnel within NETCOM at each location in advance of the actual travel to minimize the impact on Government travel requirements.

4.3.1.3. Synchronized Predeployment Operational Tracker (SPOT): The prime Contractor shall enter before deployment and maintain data for all Contractor personnel to include sub-contractors that are authorized to accompany U.S. Armed Forces deployed outside the United States as specified in paragraph (b)(1) of this clause.

4.3.1.4. The prime contractor is responsible to close out the deployment of personnel, including subcontractor employees at all tiers, at the end of the contract completion period and to release the personnel from the prime contractor’s company in the SPOT database IAW DFARS 252.225-7040 or DFARS DOD class deviation 2011- O0004. The release of employee information must be accomplished no more than 30 calendar days after the end of the contract/task order completion date.

4.3.1.5. Accountability of Prime and Subcontractor Personnel: Whether specifically written into the contract/task order or not, it is the expectation of the Government that for any persons brought into the theater of operation for the sole purposes of performing work on Government contracts, contract employers will return employees to their point of origin/home country once the contract is completed or their employment is terminated for any reason. If the prime contractor fails to re-deploy an employee, or subcontractor employee at any tier, the Government shall notify the applicable U.S. Embassy to take appropriate action. Failure by the prime contractor to re-deploy its personnel, including subcontractor personnel at any tier, at the end of the contract completion date, could result in the contractor being placed on the Excluded Parties List System (EPLS) and not be allowed to propose on future U.S.

contracts anywhere in the world.

4.3.2. Travel to Germany. Contractors traveling to Germany for TDY shall use the Technical Expert Status Accreditation/Analytical Support Accreditation (TESA/ASSA) TDY procedures. The complete instructions are available at the DOD Contractor Personnel Office (DOCPER) website at http://www.eur.army.mil/g1/content/CPD/docper/docper_germanyLinks.html?tab=5&framepage=tesa.html.

Under the Technical TESA/ASSA TDY procedure, contractors would be entitled to logistical support and applicable tax exemptions.

4.3.2.1. Before the Contractor begins work in Germany, the COR for the Contractor seeking TE accreditation under this procedure will complete the TESA/ASSA TDY Application online through the DOCPER Contractor Online Processing System (DCOPS) and submit it, along with required uploaded documents, to DOCPER. The application form (AE 715-9D) must be printed from DCOPS, signed by the COR and the applicant, and then be scanned and uploaded into DCOPS.

4.3.2.2. Applications submitted to DOCPER more than 90 days in advance of the arrival date will be returned without action. [Note: The time between approval of the DD 1172-2 by DOCPER and the issuance by the ID card facility must be less than 90 days.] If the individual is determined to be qualified and is performing work in an approved position on an approved contract, DOCPER will approve technical expert status (and an ID card) for a limited period of time (not to exceed 90 days). [Note: Because ID card facilities will not issue ID cards for periods less than 30 days, 1172-2s issued by DOCPER will reflect a minimum of 30 days.]

4.3.2.3. Each period of TESA/ASSA TDY requires a separate TESA/ASSA TDY application. TESA/ASSA TDY is limited to a cumulative total of 90 days or three approved requests, whichever occurs first, within a 12-month period. The latter restriction concerning the number of approved requests is a function of the 30-day minimum approval period as three requests for short periods of TESA/ASSA TDY over a period of time still equate to the maximum of 90 days.

4.3.3. Travel to Republic of Korea (ROK).

4.3.3.1. U.S. Government contractors who travel to ROK must be identified as Invited Contractors/Technical Representatives (IC/TR). Reference is United States Forces Korea (USFK) Regulation 700-19 (The Invited Contractors and Technical Representatives Program).
