Radford Army Ammunition Plant (RFAAP) Operation, Maintenance, and Modernization - PWS RFI

W519TC-24-R-ROMM - RADFORD ARMY AMMUNITION PLANT (RFAAP) OPERATION, MAINTENANCE, AND MODERNIZATION - REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) - PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENTS (PWS)

The U.S Army Contracting Command Rock Island (ACC-RI), in support of the U.S. Army Joint Munitions Command (JMC) located at Rock Island Arsenal, IL and the Project Lead Joint Services (PL JS) located at Picatinny Arsenal, NJ, are currently seeking Industry feedback to continue PWS strategy and development for facility operation and maintenance at RFAAP.

RFAAP operation and maintenance requirements will be prescribed through PWS's for scopes including, but not limited to, Environmental, Security, Maintenance, Safety and Energy. Prior to release of the RFAAP Request for Proposal (RFP), the USG is interested in Industry's feedback on the draft PWS language (attached) for the referenced PWS areas. While certain PWS requirements are mandated by Army policies for Army facility operations, the USG is willing to consider adapting PWS language in certain cases to promote realization of RFAAP competition objectives related to efficiency and operational capability. The USG seeks Industry perspectives on the following:

(1) The primary cost drivers in each of these PWS areas.

(2) Specific areas where the PWS's are overly specific or vague in terms of requirements that influence costs.

(3) Ideas related to streamlining of PWS requirements, without negatively impacting mission.

(4) Suggestions for evaluating performance against these requirements.

(5) Identification of Industry best practices for managing PWS risks and cost.

As indicated, the attached PWS's are in draft status, and as such, are still in process of being developed.
