This Performance Work Statement (PWS) outlines the requirements to provide successful and acceptable Special Warfare Training Wing (SWTW), Information Technology (IT) Lifecycle for the U.S. Department of Defense, Air Education and Training Command (AETC).

Objectives: The basic service objective is as follows:

• Enhancement of Special Warfare Training Enterprise: With a primary focus on advancing and sustaining the Air Force’s Special Warfare training enterprise, the Contractor’s responsibilities include supplying, supporting, and maintaining SWTW-specific applications and systems. Compliance with MAJCOM/HAF cyber and legal standards is of paramount importance in all aspects of support.
• IT Support and Data Analysis: To bolster the effectiveness of the SWTW, the Contractor will provide crucial IT support and management services. This includes proficient data collection and analysis, as well as tasks such as developing data tracking metrics, implementation plans for specific requirements, and the efficient management of associated administrative tasks.
• Training Program Support: In support of the SWTW training programs, especially the SW Candidate Course and Assessment & Selection Course, the Contractor will play a vital role by providing essential IT management and additional program support as required.

Scope: The Contractor shall provide services to support and sustain the services that include operating and maintaining both mission-critical and non-mission-critical technologies. They are responsible for delivering Government-approved psychological, physiological, and qualitative assessment instruments to detect trends, assess at-risk personnel, and provide actionable intelligence, data analytics, and training/recovery recommendations. The services aim to leverage private sector capabilities to enhance candidates’ and operators’ competitive advantages in training and mission environments. The Contractor will collaborate with Government units to standardize and optimize system and human performance designs, identify emerging technology solutions, and integrate technologies. Additionally, the Contractor will implement industry best practices and technologies for efficiency and cost savings, design new systems, and migrate infrastructure capabilities to meet mission requirements and improve operational efficiency. The focus includes delivering scalable system and infrastructure capabilities, facilitating Tactical Fitness and Readiness Operations program equipment integration, and capturing, tracking, and providing readiness data for Special Warfare operational units across the enterprise. The ultimate goal is the Contractor to offer Commanders at all echelons a comprehensive readiness dashboard.

This is a commercial performance-based requirement in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 2.101 definition of Performance Based Services; therefore, the Government is defining the required results on a contract-by-contract basis, rather than dictating the processes which the Contractor shall use to achieve those results.

The Contractor shall support the SWTW with services located within the continental United States (CONUS).
