STATEMENT OF WORK

FOR THE

DEVELOPMENT AND CONDUCT OF

DJC2 INCREMENT I TRAINING

NAVAL SURFACE WARFARE CENTER PANAMA CITY

REQUISITION 43246393

 

1.0 SCOPE

 

The Deployable Joint Command and Control (DJC2) system provides the Joint Task Force Commander with a full range of interoperable, robust, standardized, and scaleable systems and tools for planning, executing, and assessing joint combined operations.  DJC2 is the hardware and software suite used by joint task force headquarters to exercise command and control (C2) over assigned resources.  Increment I DJC2, the first of three increments, is scheduled to be delivered to Pacific Command (PACOM) in January 2005 and Central Command (CENTCOM) in September 2005.  All other Regional Combat Commanders (RCCs) will be receiving DJC2 systems in later years, with early increments ultimately being upgraded to the Increment II configuration.  This will require both instructor-led classroom and hands-on training, and a leave-behind sustainment training package.  The sustainment package includes a training portal with the following materials:

 

(a) Lesson Plans

(b) Student Handouts

(c) Instructor Guides 

(d) Web-Based Training (WBT) Modules

(e) Job Aids

(f) Interactive Electronic Technical Manuals (IETMs)

 

Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City (NSWC PC) has been tasked as Technical Direction Agent by the DJC2 Joint Program Office (JPO) to develop DJC2 Production systems in a phased approach to meet the operational requirements of DJC2.  In addition, NSWC PC, as part of its Integrated Logistic Support tasking, supports the development and revision of training materials and curricula, and conducts training for DJC2 operators and support personnel. This effort includes work required to deliver the training content to personnel staffing the DJC2 for RCCs.  NSWC PC has also been tasked as the Technical Design Agent for DJC2 IETMs.  Initial training materials and IETMs have been developed under a previous contract.

 

Contractor support is required to support the revision, and when required, new development of IETMs and other training materials, and to conduct operator and support personnel training in conjunction with system testing and delivery.
