PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS)

FOR

Optimizing the Human Weapon System (OHWS) Services Updated 15 August 2019

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.

1.2 Background: Surveys indicate up to 100% of fighter aircrew have 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 involved while flying 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 and combined with experiencing up to 9 Gs, or 9 times the force of gravity, the neck and back can be supporting over 130 pounds in a dynamic maneuvering scenario. Often these forces are exerted while looking over the shoulder while the torso is twisted. These forces can 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 aircrew to meet the unique physical needs of fighter operations.

Previous efforts in some fighter units have demonstrated success in decreasing pain and disability while improving performance of fighter crew through a comprehensive program to prepare aircrew 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 aircrew for the rigorous demands of fighters. This program will target specific neck and back strength and conditioning training which will best prepare the aircrew. In addition, overall conditioning and health education, designed to bring aircrew 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 aircrew are flexible and continue to be optimized. This prehabilitation will occur utilizing Athletic Trainers and Physical and Massage Therapists.

1.3 Period of Performance (PoP): The Period of Performance shall be 12 Months base contract plus one (1) option year beginning in FY2019. Performance will be at the service provider’s facility 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.

The contractor’s QCP is the means by which it assures itself that its work complies with the requirements of the contract. As a minimum, the contractor shall develop QC procedures that address the areas identified in Technical Exhibit 1, Performance Requirements Summary (PRS).

1.4.2 Quality Assurance (QA): The Government will evaluate the contractor’s performance under this contract in accordance with the Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP). This plan is primarily focused on what the Government will do to ensure that the contractor has performed in accordance with the performance standards. It defines how the performance standards will be applied, the frequency of surveillance, and acceptable quality level(s) or defect rate(s).

1.4.3 Place and Performance of Services: The performance of services will be entirely at the contractor’s location, which shall be no more than a 20-mile radius from home station (177FW, 400 Langley Road, Egg Harbor Twp., NJ 08234). Other locations can be coordinated on an individual basis or with the 177th FW with approval of the contractor. Expected hours of service are Monday-Friday 0600-1600 this can be tailored based on individual and contractor needs, also once a month be available during a Regularly Scheduled Drill (RSD) Saturday. Services to be available are Athletic Trainers, Physical Therapists, and Massage Therapists and will be scheduled by the individual with the contracted agency. The expected number of Fighter Pilots utilizing these services is 30.

The contractor shall at all times maintain an adequate work force for the uninterrupted performance of all tasks defined within this PWS. When hiring personnel, the contractor shall keep in mind that the stability and continuity of the work force are essential.

1.4.4 All services will be provided at the provider’s location, or a location coordinated between the provider and individual/177th FW.

1.4.5 TASK REQUIREMENTS. Services provided by the Contractor have the primary purpose of reducing the risk neck and back pain. The services begin with an assessment of each aircrew member to assess current level of conditioning with regards to neck and back strength within 30 days of award. The Contractor shall devise a program individualized for the aircrew member to increase conditioning to prevent neck and back pain and injury. This assessment, training, and conditioning to prevent neck and back pain is referred to as pre-habilitation. Also, the Contractor shall educate each aircrew member on injury prevention and assist in injury recovery through a modified program based on the injury and through working with privileged providers who will oversee any program for injured aircrew. Ongoing assessment will be provided with formal assessments quarterly and as needed with remedial training as needed. The Contractor shall provide the functional support required to fulfill this PWS as described in the following tasks.

1.4.6 The Contractor shall use a scientific assessment of individual movement and movements required while flying aircraft and develop and provide a strength and conditioning program for neck and back as well as an overall fitness program (NBFP).

The NBFP will enhance human performance and resistance to injury through a tailored program of strength and conditioning and overall fitness designed for the members being served with the goal of preventing neck and back pain. The NBFP will specifically target neck and back injury but will also strive to assist the member toward overall health and fitness. The NBFP will include physical training and conditioning utilizing all available assets for fighter aircrew. The contractor will provide the training plan to member within 10 days of initial assessment.
