PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS)

United States Disciplinary Barracks (USDB) Directorate of Operations (DOPS) for the Land Mobile Radio (LMR) Signal Amplification Project

01 Jun 18

1. GENERAL:

1.1. Description of Services/Introduction: This is a non-personal services contract to boost radio communication signal and eliminate dead spots throughout the United States Disciplinary Barracks (USDB) including Buildings 1140, 1141, and 1142 via a Land Mobile Radio (LMR) Signal Amplification Project. The LMR Signal Amplification Project shall seamlessly integrate, without interference, with the existing Fort Leavenworth P25 trunked LMR system (which operates on the 380.0 – 399.9 MHz UHF frequency range). The USDB DOPS requires a “turnkey” solution to include Engineer, Furnish, Install and Test (EFI&T) of infrastructure equipment as well as the following ancillary services: program management, systems engineering, configuration management, site preparation, security implementation, functional and coverage testing to include a Signal Amplification analysis, system cutover, life cycle support of the fielded system to include warranty/maintenance, and system documentation. The LMR Signal Amplification Project shall fulfill the requirements contained in this PWS.

1.2. Background: A Government study, survey, and site visit were conducted in conjunction with the Physical Security Noncommissioned Officer In Charge (NCOIC) to determine and log multiple radio communication dead spots throughout the USDB footprint. Numerous locations were found to transmit and/or receive substandard communications and signal. With the facility conducting its emergency operations and responses through radio communication these communication dead spots create a serious safety concern and issue. Without response forces being able to receive radio traffic from Central Control due to inadequate signals throughout the facility the correctional staff (response force personnel) have no way to meet the minimal response time and be able to assist a Soldier, Civilian, or inmate in need.

1.3. Objectives: The contractor shall provide all required infrastructure, equipment, and connectivity within the USDB including Buildings 1140, 1141, and 1142; and services in support of this effort. Services include project management, system engineering, site preparation, equipment installation and optimization, security implementation, acceptance testing, training, and warranty and maintenance support for the USDB Signal Amplification Project. The contractor shall install signal amplifiers (antennas) and hardware throughout Buildings 1140, 1141, and 1142 in order to boost radio communication signals and to eliminate radio communication dead spots throughout the facility footprint. The end state is to have an optumn signal level of -

60dB to -90dB throughout the facility. No area shall exceed a signal level greater than - 110dB. There will be a site visit that contractors must attend to be eligible to bid on the contract. The contractor shall provide a by name list of who will attend the site visit and request approval for any items/specialized testing equipment they need to bring, at a minimum of seven days prior to the site visit. The contractor shall provide a technical write up depicting how dead spots will be eliminated and how radio communication signals will be boosted including a diagram showing the placement of equipment and associated schematics, cost, etc. The technical write up shall be provided to the Military Correctional Complex (MCC) to forward the Fort Leavenworth Network Enterprise Center (NEC) Point of Contact (POC) to determine acceptability. An additional site visit will be conducted before installation begins. Signal amplifiers (antennas) should be installed throughout Buildings 1140, 1141, and 1142 as needed to eliminated dead spots and boost radio communication signals.

The contract should be divided into four phases (Phase 1, Pre-Installation Site Signal Survey; Phase 2, Installation Phase; Phase 3, Post-Installation Site Signal Survey; and Phase 4, 11th Month Post-Installation Site Survey).

Fort Leavenworth LMR System Overview

The existing Fort Leavenworth LMR system consists of a Single System Site located at Latitude 39.360221 / Longitude -94.938250, Fort Leavenworth, KS. The output power of the current Fort Leavenworth LMR system is 40 watts. The eight (8) channel digital, trunked Harris v6.2.1 utilizes NTIA 12.5 kHz narrowband, P25 compliant and Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) capable equipment, operates in the 380-399.9 MHz UHF band and extends the RF coverage throughout the boundaries of Fort Leavenworth as well as provides interoperability with eight (8) local mutual aid agencies. The Fort Leavenworth LMR system supports approximately 1150 users and provides critical communications for the First Responders and base support personnel.

The Signal Amplification system components such as repeaters, transmitters, receivers, signal boosters, cabling, and antenna systems shall be compatible with the existing LMR system so as to allow for seamless integration of the systems. The Signal Amplification systems shall be capable of transmitting and receiving all radio frequencies assigned to the existing Fort Leavenworth LMR system and upgradeable in the instance Fort Leavenworth changes or adds LMR system frequencies so as to maintain radio coverage.

1.4. Scope: This contract is for the LMR Signal Amplification Project. The Contractor shall install signal amplifiers (antennas) and all necessary hardware throughout the Buildings 1140, 1141, and 1142 as needed to achieve an optumn signal level of -60dB to -90dB throughout the facility. No area shall exceed a signal level greater than -110dB. Installation includes boosting radio communication signals and eliminating radio communication dead spots.

1.5. Period of Performance: The period of performance shall be for one Base Year including a one year warranty for parts and three option years for an extended warranty.
