PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS)
FOR
Alabama – 46th CERFP – Sustainment Collective Training Event (SCTE)
Role Players, Moulage/ Clothing, Weighted Manikins, Simulants, Lumber Package And Ambulance Service Support
1.0 General:
1.1 Scope: The contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, tools, materials, supervision, and quality control necessary, except as specified in Paragraph 3.0 as Government Furnished, to perform a non-personal services contract to provide the Alabama 46th CERFP collective training event with contractor support to provide and manage contractor role players, moulage/ clothing, weighted manikins, simulants, lumber package, real world medical support (2 ambulances), and Structural Collapse Venue Site (SCVS) (Rubble Pile) reset as identified this PWS. The Government shall not exercise any supervision or control over the contract service providers performing the services herein. The Contractor shall implement and sustain cost-saving measures throughout the period of performance without degradation of mission capability.
1.1.1 Objectives This Performance Work Statement (PWS) establishes performance requirements for contractor support to allow training organizations the maximum opportunity to exercise their personnel by simulating actual conditions. Role players and ambulance services are essential to realism and interaction during the training events, which is enhanced by acting, moulage, and environmental conditions. Rubble Pile reset is an enhanced requirement that also enhances realism and interactions for typical lifesaving elements.
1.2 Background: In conjunction with the National Guard Bureau, Alabama 46th CERFP is tasked to develop and support regional training and exercise activities aimed at enhancing domestic contingency readiness. The Alabama 46th CERFP ensures these functions are integrated and complementary where appropriate. To provide conditions wherein the participants are challenged with probable real-world situations, the Alabama 46th CERFP uses moulage role players, manikins, and simulants to simulate the applicable conditions. The use of role players is required to support regional training and exercises to enhance domestic contingency preparedness exercises and evaluations of CBRNE Enhanced Response Force Package (CERFP), Homeland Response Force (HRF) and other National Guard CBRNE response capabilities. The Alabama 46th CERFP SCTE Contractor Support specifically addresses a combination of strategic planning and tactical operations within the civilian emergency management community (Exercise only).

5.4 Task 3, Provide (2) Ambulance Service:
5.4.1. General: The safety and security of participants, supporting players and military members at exercise events is of the utmost importance to achieve mission effectiveness and maximum training efficiency. During External Evaluations (EXEVAL), Collective Training Events (CTE) and Special Focus Events (SFE), the National Guard Bureau (NGB) requires provision for the safety of anyone in responsibility of the Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, Explosive (CBRNE) Chemical Response Enterprise (CRE) footprint. Two Real World Medical (RWM) assets (2 Ambulances) will be staged on the scene while participants are actively exercising, to include, but not limited to: set up, exercise play, and tear down. If for any reason the RWM team assigned to the training site leaves (i.e.: transport of a patient) and inadequate RWM coverage is left on the training site, the event must pause until RWM asset returns. Per NGB RWM Memorandum and guidance letter, when 101-250 personnel are on site and EMTs are being used for Basic Life Support without medical control authority on scene, 4 EMTs, or greater level trained providers, with two (2) Ambulance are required. For CERFP CTEs, each ambulance shall have 1 EMT (BLS) and 1 Paramedic (ALS). The suggested method to provide RWM care is to contract or coordinate a MOU/MOA with a civilian agency to provide both the onsite and transport capability. The agency contracted will have to demonstrate their capability of providing Advanced Life Support Capability and provide enough crew to cover the exercise event so exercise play is not disrupted in the event of a transport. 911 systems that can respond within 15 minutes from receiving a call can be considered; however, this should not be an option in lieu of an on scene (2) Ambulance. The goal is to always have a minimum of one (1) Ambulance on site due to the training conducted.
5.4.2 Scope: The Contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, tools, materials, supervision, and quality control necessary, except as specified in Part 3 as Government Furnished, to perform (2) Ambulance Services, as defined in this PWS.
5.4.3 Special Qualifications: Personnel must be EMT level trained or greater.
5.4.4 Requirements: The Contractor shall:
5.4.4.1 Provide two (2) Ambulances ready for transport at Clarke Range, SCSS.
5.4.4.2 EMT or greater level trained personnel (2 per vehicle: 1 BLS, 1 ALS)
5.4.4.3 At least one (1) Ambulance is required to always stay at the training site.
5.4.4.4 Hours of Operation 0700-1700 daily.
5.4.4.5 Dates:02-04 March 2026.
5.5 Task 4, Provide NGB approved ExEVAL Lumber Package and 2 Technical Rescue Subject Matter Experts.
5.5.1 General: Provide the 46th CERFP with NGB approved ExEVAL Lumber Package during the exercise.

The SMEs will also provide refresher trainings on Shoring Operations, Lifting and Hauling, FEMA Markings, Beginner Rope Rescue, and Breaching and Breaking operations. 46th CERFP will provide a 10k forklift for reset after training is completed. The safety and security of participants, supporting role players and military members at the exercise is of utmost importance.
