The report shall follow the following general outline:

a. Introduction

b. General Background

c. Analysis Narrative and Plan

d. Improvement Projects and Cost Estimates

AA. STATIONING PLANS/STUDIES: Prepare stationing studies and concept plans based on current units and proposed force structure changes. Stationing studies are prepared as follows:

1. Determine unit level facility allowances, based on the TI 800-1 and other agency manuals, for existing units on installations and those proposed to move there.

a. The Real Property Planning and Analysis System (RPLANS) is an integrated planning tool which is used to calculate peacetime facility space allowances and compare them to available real property assets for a wide range of facility types. The A-E may be required to evaluate and/or assist in the update of the RPLANS data.

2. Prepare alternative courses of action based on a determination of the most appropriate locations for units on installations taking into account operational considerations and the space and facilities available. Determine which units must or can be relocated to other installations to make room for the moving units. Evaluate the domino impact on other installations. Prepare movement phasing plans based on required construction/renovation and scheduled unit deployments.

3. Prepare reports and drawings to document movement alternatives including cost estimates and concept plans for necessary facilities renovations.

BB. CODE AND REGULATORY COMPARISONS. The A-E will be responsible for comparing a Foreign Nations building codes and regulations to U.S. or other nations equivalents. The comparison shall include where the documents are similar, different and when different which document is more stringent or might apply better for a certain applied case. Part of the analysis will be a written narrative describing the differences, including why they are different and why a determination was made that a specific citation was weaker or stronger. A project specific Schedule of Services (SOS) will be prepared for each task order determining which documents will be require comparison.

CC. FACILITY ALLOWANCE ANALYSIS: Assist installations in updates of The Army Stationing and Installation Plan (ASIP), or other stationing plans, and determine future facility allowances. Use stationing plans to determine required and allowed facilities and determine disposition of excess facilities.

Prepare updates of Tabulation of Existing and Required Facilities (TAB) or similar documentation for other agencies. Facility Allowance Analyses are prepared as follows:

1. Perform site assessment by conducting site surveys, interviewing tenants and reviewing stationing plans. Determine populations, assignments and usages of space and facilities.

2. Based on the and other agency manuals, determine allowed space criteria and other facility allowances.

3. Prepare reports and drawings to document existing and future facility allowances. Reports may include recommendations for achieving proper allowances, such as facility reductions, moves to other installations or facilities, etc.

DD. INSTALLATION ENERGY AND WATER PLAN (IEWP): An IEWP is an integration of installation and higher-level strategic guidance, plans, and policies into a holistic roadmap enabling the installation to work constructively toward established goals for energy efficiency, renewable energy, and energy resilience.

These goals should consider the installation mission, existing Master Plans, particular circumstances, priorities, opportunities, and constraints, and include:

1. Meeting projected future energy and water demand to achieve mission assurance on military installations

2. Achieving goals set by Congress, the White House (see EO 13834), DoD, or Services for energy use intensity and other energy efficiency, greenhouse gas (GHG), renewable energy, energy resilience, water efficiency, and alternative fuels

3. Lowering total operating costs

4. Addressing concerns that hinder stakeholder cooperation on energy and water management, including industrial control systems (ICS) and cybersecurity IEWPs incorporate long-range plans for energy resilience capabilities to ensure available, reliable, and quality power for each of the installation's critical missions. Guidance on preparing the energy resilience portion of the IEWP is contained in DoDI 4170.11, Installation Energy Management. This instruction is supplemented by the guidance provided in the OASD (EI&E) Memorandum, "Energy Resilience: Operations, Maintenance, and Testing (OM&T) Strategy and Implementation Guidance," effective UFC 2-100-01 30 September 2020 Change 1 8 April 2022 46 March 2017. Follow the guidance in these two documents when developing IEWPs. IEWPs are integral to the installation development process; however, IEWPs should be developed to be stand-alone or severable documents from the installation Master Plan.

Latest sustainability goals are located on the Federal Sustainability Plan website:

https://www.sustainability.gov/federalsustainabilityplan/

DD. INSTALLATION CLIMATE RESILIENCE PLANs (ICRPs): Determine and evaluate adaptation strategies specific to capital improvement projects of significant scale which improve the overall resilience of the installation. Master plans should document a deliberate methodology to recognize severe weather and climatic hazards and incorporate within planning recommendations a set of succinct measures to minimize or mitigate the risks of these events in the future.

Natural disasters, such as hurricanes, typhoons, flooding, wildfires, and high winds, have damaged or destroyed installations in the past. Installations face rapidly evolving mission assurance requirements that place huge demands on our installation resources. Section 2801 of the FY 2020 NDAA amended 10 USC 2864 to require installation Master Plans to include an installation military resilience component to discuss severe weather and other changing environmental factors.

EE. ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES: Projects may also involve sustainable design using an integrated design approach and emphasizing environmental stewardship, especially energy and water conservation and efficiency; use of recovered and recycled materials; waste reduction; reduction or elimination of toxic and harmful substances in facilities construction and operation; efficiency in resource and materials utilization; and development of healthful, safe and productive work environments.

C.2.2 TECHNICAL CRITERIA: A detailed list of criteria and manuals to be referenced will be included in each task order. The A-E will be expected to be familiar with all Department of Defense criteria and technical manuals. The A-E will also be expected to comply with the requirements of host nations and shall familiarize himself with the criteria referenced in each task order.

C.2.3 SAFETY REQUIREMENTS: The A-E shall comply with all the Corps of Engineers and German Federal and local safety requirements. In case of conflict between these regulations, the most protective standard will prevail. The A-E shall be responsible for ensuring that his agents, employees and sub-consultants perform the work in a safe manner. The A-E shall ensure that all personnel involved in the remediation of soil/groundwater and or the collection, handling, transportation, and disposal of the hazardous materials and wastes and in the sampling of soil and groundwater are trained in the appropriate field and first aid procedures. The A-E, sub-consultants, employees and his agents shall all have the required certifications and licenses for performance of the work if applicable.

C.2.4 LABORATORY REQUIREMENTS: All analyses of any sample (including soil, sludge, sediment, soil vapors, surface water, groundwater, etc.) shall be performed by an appropriately accredited laboratory as…
