This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. Performance Work Statement For 196th IN BDE FY15 Civil Support Team (CST)Collective Training Events (CTEs) 1.0 Objective: The objective of the task is to assist and execute 36 hour, full scale, Chemical/Biological/Radiological Weapons of Mass Destruction Collective Training exercises in Hawaii. Exercises will create an environment to facilitate the accurate assessment of the twelve National Guard Mission Essential Tasks outlined in the DTMS Combined Armed Training Strategy (CATS) Civil Support Team Mission Essential Tasks dated May 09. These exercises will also involve the 93d (HI), 94th (GU), 103rd CST (AK), as well as other to be named mainland CSTs and the HI-CERFP. 2.0 Specific Tasks: The contractor will provide the necessary personnel, labor, materials, supplies, and equipment as indicated below to perform the tasks outlined: 2.1 Scenario Development-The CTEs will not only measure the training and readiness level of the team in accordance with DTMS Combined Armed Training Strategy (CATS) Civil Support Team Mission Essential Tasks, but will also reinforce interoperability, communications, and RIP/TOA procedures and aid in the development of standard operating guidelines (SOGs). The scenarios must include at least one (1) Chemical, one (1) Biological, and one (1) Radiological hazard that will allow each team to challenge all of their capabilities and equipment. The scenarios should be designed to aid in the identification of possible team shortcomings and weak areas; as well as to re-train those areas as necessary. It must also provide an environment ready for on-the-fly injects, as necessary, to ensure all of the DTMS Combined Armed Training Strategy (CATS) Civil Support Team Mission Essential Tasks are completed to standard. Should any weak areas be found, the scenario should provide for immediate re-training in those areas. The scenario must provide the complexity and realism to represent an actual Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) event. Contractor provides realistic training aid, devices, and simulators that properly stimulate current CST detection and analytical equipment enabling the CST to make sophisticated assessments and decisions. Realism and technical exactitude are crucial for all training aid, devices, simulators, and locations. The full scenario should provide for one complete and continuous demanding day of training not to exceed 36 hours. 2.2 Scenario Staffing- The contractor will provide experienced and certified staff to create target sites that replicate chemical and biological laboratory production, radiological and explosives manufacturing labs, and act as role players in the scenario. The minimal roles include Incident Commander (IC), FBI or local law enforcement, Explosives Ordnance Disposal (EOD), Safety Officer, Staging Officer, and Medical reach back. All staff must have a full understanding of the Incident Command System (ICS) and their role in WMD event. Since staff will be playing the roles of trained Hazardous Materials (HAZMAT) professionals and reacting to the decisions of the CST, they must be fully trained in HAZMAT operations to the level of quote mark Technician quote mark in accordance with National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 472. As these exercises are to assist in SOG construction and implementation, as well as reinforce Training and Evaluation Tasks enforced at a national certification level, prior participation in at least three (3) national level training exercises is vital to plenary understanding of the training requirements. All staff must be well versed in CST Operations and all governing regulations to supplement the training and reinforcement of standard CST operating principals during the exercise. The contractor will have a licensed heavy equipment operator available for target site adjustments (see 3.1 and 3.2 below) 3.0 Place of Performance. The contractor ensures locations/buildings meet the requirements for target location, vehicle footprint, communications equipment, egress, and functioning utilities (electricity, water supply) in accordance with the DTMS Combined Armed Training Strategy (CATS) Civil Support Team Mission Essential Tasks dated May 09, ATP 3-11.46 dated May 14, and unit Standard Operating Guidelines (SOG). 3.1 Target Site.

At the conclusion of the exercise, the contractor will return the site to its previous state. All clean-up will be done by the contractor. 4.0 Period of Performance. It is estimated that ten (10) days will be needed to complete the task with seven (7) days for preparation of elaborate chemical, biological, radiological, and explosives labs, two (2) days for execution, and one (1) day for clean-up. 5.0 Reporting Requirements and Deliverables: Contractor will provide the following deliverables: 5.1 Refined Scenario Summary.
