Performance Work Statement (PWS) Efforts:
Pay, Personnel & Passenger Transportation (3PT) Support Services
The Pay, Personnel & Passenger Transportation Support (3PT) competition released the 100% Performance Work Statement (PWS) on March 23rd. The Request for Proposal (RFP) is on the FedBizOps website.

Identification Card Administration (ICA) Support Services 
The Identification Card Administration (ICA) Support Services Technical Evaluation Board (TEB) is ongoing. The Personnel Administration Support System (PASS) has assumed control of the twenty five RAPID sites that were being managed by PASS & ID. CNIC HQ contracted through the Common Access Card Program Management Office for contract support of these twenty five RAPIDS sites. This is an interim solution until the ICA competition has concluded and the Service Provider has been awarded.

Agency Tender/Most Efficient Organization (MEO) Efforts:
Pay, Personnel & Passenger Transportation (3PT) Support Services 
On March 16, 2009, the MEO Team, including government Subject Matter Experts, MEO Teaming Subcontractor Serco, and our MEO Consultant BAE Systems, met to solidify their lines of communication and begin to collaborate on developing the Agency Tender. The MEO Team efforts concentrated on bid preparation techniques including “storyboarding” (graphically organizing a series of images in a sequence for the purpose of pre-visualizing an outcome), writing Technical Understanding and Approach sections, and developing a Data Collection Plan and Approach based on the draft solicitation. The MEO Team also began their review of the final solicitation on 23 March.

Identification Card Administration (ICA) Support Services
On January 16, 2009 the ICA MEO Team submitted the Agency Tender to the Contracting Officer at the Competitive Sourcing Acquisition Center of Excellence (CSACOE). The Agency Tender Official (ATO), MEO Team Lead, MEO Subcontractor, and MEO Subject Matter Experts are standing by to address questions and/or enter into discussion to expedite the source selection process. The ATO has cautioned all concerned that communication restrictions (the “Firewall”) be maintained.

Emergency Management Dispatch & Alarm/Surveillance Monitoring (DASM) Business Process Reengineering (BPR)
The DASM BPR initiative is an OPNAV directed follow-on effort to the EMD A-76 Competition cancelled 16 Sep 08. The BPR team executing this initiative is comprised of a the EM Program Manger (CNIC HQ), a BPR Team Lead (CNIC HQ N12), Regional EM representatives from each CONUS, HI and GU region, N3 consultants, and an N1 BPR consultant. The team conducted a kick-off meeting 3-5 March in San Diego to review the process, establish expectations, and develop a schedule for coordinated execution. The BPR Team will utilize the efforts and documents from the competition as a starting point for the BPR initiative.

Phase I of the BPR will establish a revised PWS that reflects current operations, standardizes processes, and establishes a Performance Assessment Plan (PAP) and Quality Control Plan (QCP). Other Phase I objectives include assisting with the development of a staffing model to support an OPNAV N81 initiative for performance/price modeling under Verification, Validation, and Authorization (VV&A) guidance, developing a programmatic cost model, providing recommendations for adjustments to manpower documents, and providing support documentation for budget submissions. Target date for completion of Phase I is 31 July 09.

Phase II will investigate other EM program initiatives for introduction of new IT systems, consolidation of installation dispatch services (fire, emergency medical, security) into one execution location, and consolidation of installation services into a Regional Dispatch Center (RDC). Products developed for Phase II will include a Transition Plan that reflects projections for staffing and cost, and implementation and tracking plans to coordinate the transition actions over a planned period of time. Phase II will commence 1 Aug 09 and the target date for completion is 1 Jan 10.

For April through the end of May, the DASM region reps will working with the installations to update information for the PWS and provide support for the development of the staffing model. Types of information currently under review include organization charts, service locations, staff currently supporting operations, training plans, Capability Performance Levels (CPLs), reference documentation, and PWS performance objectives. The team will work to consolidate this information to better understand the operational characteristics of DASM services and standardize service delivery processes as applicable.
