PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS)
FOR
Pre-Habilitative Neck and Back Fitness Program
1.0 General:
1.1 Scope: The contractor shall provide all personnel, supervision, equipment and quality control necessary, except as specified in Paragraph 3.0 as Government Furnished, to perform “pre-habilitative” health services, as defined in this PWS.
1.1.1 The primary effort supported by this contract will be the delivery of Athletic Trainer services and Strength and Conditioning Specialist services for fighter pilots. The contractors will train the pilots how to improve their resistance to the extreme forces their neck and back encountered in fighter aircraft flying operations. Through this program of neck and back strengthening the pilots will be more resilient, more mission capable, and will have improved quality of life as a result of the expected decrease in neck and back pain. The fighter pilots of the Wisconsin Air National Guard will be the clients for this contract.
1.2 Background: Surveys indicate up to 100% of fighter aircrew have experienced some type of spine discomfort during their career. This includes issues in the neck, upper back, and lower back (cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine). This is caused by the dynamic movement pilots experience while operating aircraft under high G forces, and the unique stresses caused by the equipment that is necessary for flight. The helmet that is worn during flight weighs approximately 5 pounds. This weight, combined with experiencing up to 9 Gs (9 times the force of gravity) the neck and back can be subject to supporting over 130 pounds in a dynamic maneuvering scenario. Often these forces are exerted while looking over the shoulder while the torso is twisted. The confluence of these factors may result in several types of neck and back injury. The Optimizing the Human Weapon System (OHWS) program is intended to address this pressing concern and better prepare fighter pilots to meet the unique physical needs of fighter aircraft flying operations.
1.2.1 Previous efforts in some fighter units have demonstrated success in decreasing pain and disability while improving performance of fighter pilots through a comprehensive program to prepare clients for the extremely challenging demands of fighter maneuvering. This OHWS program is intended to reproduce this success on a system-wide basis and is described as “pre-habilitation.” Pre-habilitation involves prevention of disability and pain experienced as a result of fighter operations through a program specifically designed to train and otherwise prepare clients for the rigorous demands of fighter aircraft. This program will target specific neck and back strength and conditioning training which will best prepare the client. In addition, overall conditioning and health education, designed to bring clients to the peak of fitness, will further decrease the incidence and severity of neck and back problems. Further, through a program of data collection, to include objective and subjective information the program will evolve as needed to ensure this effort at improving the quality of life for clients are flexible and continue to be optimized. Lastly, this program will also serve to keep the Fighter Squadron Commander informed of the health, progress and participation of the pilots.
1.3 Period of Performance (PoP): The Period of Performance is anticipated to be 2 Base Months in FY19 and one 12-month option years. Performance will be at 115 Operations Group (OG) 3110 Mitchell Street, Madison, WI, 53704, Building 404 for the duration of the contract.
1.4 General Information:
1.4.1 Quality Control (QC): The contractor shall develop and maintain an effective QC Plan (QCP) to ensure services are performed in accordance with this PWS.

1.4.4.0.2 This is a non-personal services contract. The Government shall neither supervise contractor employees nor control the method by which the contractor performs the required tasks. The contractor shall manage its employees and guard against any actions that are of the nature of personal services, or give the perception of personal services. The contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer (CO) immediately if they perceive any actions that constitute personal services. These services shall not be used to perform any Inherently Governmental Functions. State licenses and certification for each contractor must be from the state in which the services are provided.
1.4.4.1 Unscheduled gate closures by the Security Police may occur at any time causing all personnel entering or exiting a closed installation to experience a delay. This cannot be predicted or prevented. Contractors are not compensated for unexpected closures or delays.

1.4.5 Security Requirements. The contractor shall comply with all applicable installation/facility access and local security policies and procedures, which may be obtained from the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR). The contractor shall also provide all information required for background checks to meet installation access requirements to be accomplished by the local installation’s Security Forces, Director of Emergency Services or local Security Office. The contractor shall ensure compliance with all personal identity verification requirements as directed by DoD, HAF and/or local policy. Should the Force Protection Condition (FPCON) change, the Government may require changes in contractor security matters or processes.
1.4.5.1 For Contractors Requiring Common Access Card (CAC): The CAC is the DoD Federal Personal Identity Verification (PIV) credential. CAC issuance requirements are as follows:
Before CAC issuance, the contractor employee requires, at a minimum, a favorably adjudicated National Agency Check with Inquiries (NACI) or an equivalent or higher investigation in accordance with Air Force Directive 31-101. The contractor employee will be issued a CAC only if duties involve one of the following: (1) Both physical access to a DoD facility and access, via logon, to DoD networks on-site or remotely; (2) Remote access, via logon, to a DoD network using DoD-approved remote access procedures; or
(3) Physical access to multiple DoD facilities or multiple non-DoD federally controlled facilities on behalf of the DoD on a recurring basis for a period of 6 months or more. At the discretion of the sponsoring activity, an initial CAC may be issued based on a favorable review of the FBI fingerprint check and a successfully scheduled NACI at the Office of Personnel Management.
1.4.5.1.1 HSPD-12 Background Investigation Requirements: The contractor shall ensure that all contractor and subcontractor personnel whose duties require CAC card issuance obtain them, and shall process all CAC card applications. The contractor shall ensure that all employees requiring an initial background investigation complete a Personnel Security Investigation Portal (PSIP) form at Attachment, at the earliest possible date and that this form is forwarded to the COR immediately. The COR will review the form for completeness and accuracy and forward it to the National Guard Bureau (NGB) Personnel Security manager who will initiate the investigation process via the PSIP. Contractor personnel will then receive two e-mail messages; the first will confirm that the investigative service provider has received the request, and the second will provide instructions for the completion of the appropriate form via the Electronic Questionnaires for Investigations Processing (e-QIP) system. Upon completion of the e- QIP questionnaire and submittal of all required documents, including fingerprint card to the security manager, the background investigation (BI) will be initiated. The contractor shall ensure immediate compliance with all instructions regarding background investigation processing, including those provided verbally, by e-mail or via a Government system. The contractor is cautioned that the entire process from submittal of the PSIP form to return of the FBI fingerprint check may routinely take from two to six weeks and shall factor this lead time into its hiring/placement process. The contractor shall make all reasonable efforts to ensure that contractor employees meet CAC eligibility standards upon assignment to the contract and shall be held responsible for delays, failure to meet performance requirements or decreases in efficiency in accordance with the applicable inspection clause.
1.4.5.1.2 At the RAPIDS station, the RAPIDS Verification Officer will verify the contractor employee by SSN and two forms of identification. Identity source documents must come from the list of acceptable documents included in Form I-9, OMB No. 1615- 0047, "Employment Eligibility Verification." Consistent with applicable law, at least one document from the Form I-9 list shall be a valid (unexpired) State or Federal Government-issued picture ID. The Identity documents will be inspected for authenticity and scanned and stored in the DEERS upon issuance of an ID. The photo ID requirement cannot be waived, consistent with applicable statutory requirements. The Verification Officer will capture primary and alternate fingerprints, picture, and updates to DEERS, and will then issue a CAC. Issued CACs will be valid for no longer than three years, or until the individual's contract end date (inclusive of any options), whichever is earlier.
1.4.5.1.3 The contractor shall return issued CACs to the DEERS office upon departure or dismissal of each contractor employee, and shall obtain a receipt for each card and provide it to the TA/COR.
1.4.5.1.4 The contractor shall manage requests for new or renewal CAC cards in sufficient time to ensure that all contractor employees have them when needed to perform work under this contract.
