*\[Guidance in filling out Section II: The S&T Program should describe
the task, deliverables,acceptance criteria, in such a manner that a lay
reader can gain some understanding of the nature of the work and the
basis under which the deliverables will be evaluated.* Provide a clear
summary description of the technical work desired by DHS. This should be
detailed enough for contracting purposes, to specify the type of work
desired. Specify objectives, funding, timeframe for results, and
deliverables (e.g., a report summarizing technical findings of the
investigations). DHS acceptance criteria that will be used to evaluate
deliverables should be included.

**Instructions for this SOW Attachment**: This template is a tool to
assist program managers and support personnel in formulating a precise
and concise statement of work (SOW) for U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)
laboratories or sites. These instructions should be deleted once the SOW
is drafted.

-   *Text in black represents standard SOW language that could/should be
    incorporated verbatim.*

-   *Text in red bold italics represents areas where specific input is
    required. This text should be deleted once the information has been
    added.*

*Some general instructions on completing the template:*

-   *Spell out the first use of an acronym and show the acronym in
    parentheses, for example, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory
    (LLNL).*

-   *Always use the performer's name or acronym rather than "we" or "the
    contractor" or "the national laboratory." Consistently use the same
    term for the performer.*

-   *Avoid the passive tense, which causes confusion when multiple
    laboratories or entities are performing a project and it is unclear
    which entity is responsible for which obligation. For example,
    instead of writing "research will be performed by LLNL," write "LLNL
    will perform the research." The doer of the action should always be
    clearly identified.*

-   *Use the verb "shall" or "will" rather than "would," "should," or
    "is expected" because the SOW contains firm obligations on the part
    of the performer.*
