B.1 Pricing Overview 

This is an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract utilizing Firm Fixed Price 

(FFP) service Task Orders (TOs). Pursuant to Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 

37.6, performance-based contracting techniques will be applied under this contract and for any 

future task orders to the maximum extent practicable. The Period of Performance (POP) is one 

(1) base period and four (4) option periods. A period of performance consists of twelve (12) 

months. 

B.2 Task Orders 

The contractor shall perform work under this contract as necessary to meet the performance 

objectives and goals as identified by the Government in the base contract and subsequent task 

orders issued by the Contracting Officer (KO). Following contract award, the Government shall 

order services under this contract by means of task orders with specifically defined work 

requirements, deliverable products, and performance standards. All future task orders will be 

FFP with the exception of the Other Direct Cost (ODC) Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) 

being Time and Material (T&M). 

An initial task order for program operations support (CLIN 0001) shall be negotiated based on 

fully burdened labor rates established in the contract. This initial task order shall provide the 

technical approach and management support activities to support this nation-wide marketing 

program. 

The Government encourages the contractor to provide fully burdened labor rate discounts for 

future task orders. Fully burdened labor rates include the base rate, fringe benefits, overhead, 

general and administrative expenses (G&A) and other charges. The number of labor hours per 

labor category shall be negotiated for each task order. 

The quantity of each labor category hours ordered will be multiplied against the labor rate listed 

in this contract or as negotiated for the task order and the cumulative extended total price of all 

negotiated promotional items and/or ODCs prices which will define the FFP for the task order. 

The contractor shall identify and itemize promotional items and ODCs in all task order proposal 

submissions. 

Partial payment of FFP task orders may be negotiated based on the completion of contractually 

specified milestones.

specifically identified in the price tables will be considered to be included in the price of another 

item or provided at no charge to the Government, except as otherwise provided for in this 

contract or future task order. The contractor may waive any contract or task order price in the

reserves the right to negotiate additional labor categories and associated fully burdened labor 

rates on a task order basis.

Section C - Descriptions and Specifications 

PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

Performance Work Statement for Marketing 

C.1 GENERAL 

C.1.1 Background 

The National Guard Bureau’s mission, to include the Army National Guard (ARNG) and 

Air National Guard (ANG) Directorates, is to provide policies, programs, procedures, 

and guidance to the states and territories to meet their end-strength objectives in 

accordance with the Strength Maintenance Philosophy. Specifically, this philosophy is 

to recruit quality soldiers, conduct attrition management designed to reduce first-term 

soldier losses and training pipeline losses, and ensure retention and extension of 

quality soldiers before the expiration of their term-of-service. Marketing is a successful 

program that is currently supporting the National Guard Bureau in their mission to 

maintain Congressionally authorized end-strength. 

The Strength Maintenance Philosophy builds a partnership for strength readiness 

between unit leaders and the recruiting and retention force. Working together, they can 

develop programs and incentives to meet each unit’s strength objectives. This 

philosophy is illustrated in the three tenets of Army National Guard Strength 

Maintenance: 

• Recruiting: Recruiting Quality (Non-Prior and Prior Service) Soldiers 

• Retention: Retaining Soldiers who reach their Expiration Term of Service 

(ETS) 

• Attrition Management: Reducing Losses While Still Under Contractual 

Military Obligation 

Consistent with performance-based contracting practices, the NGB has to define the 

work in terms of objectives rather than specific tasks. As a result, task orders will define 

any metrics used to measure performance. 

The ARNG expects the contractor to provide an organization and project manager who 

shall be responsible for all contractor work performed under this solicitation and who is 

the single point of contact. The contractor shall create a persistent organization to 

support the project manager in the day-to-day operations, including, but are not limited 

to monitoring, supervising, directing, planning, collecting, and reporting metrics, and 

quality assurance. The National Guard requires that the contractor provide the full 

complement of skills required in this solicitation. 

C.1.2 Purpose 

The Strength Maintenance Division has a mission to provide policies, programs, 

procedures, and guidance to the States and Territories so they can achieve their endstrength objectives. This contract will cover broad requirements for supplies and 

services in connection with the production, planning, preparation, and execution of 

marketing programs, including promotional programs for various directorates. 

NGB FOIA Reading Room Record 

January 5, 2011 

Page 26 of 75
W9133L-08-D-0001 

Page 27 of 75 

Currently, NGB-ASM obtains contract support for marketing programs, Recruiting 

Promotional Items (RPIs), and conferences via task orders under an existing contract. 

However, this contract has reached its funding limits; therefore, the NGB requires a new 

acquisition to provide for future marketing needs. 

By directive, the Government expects agencies, including the National Guard (NG), to 

implement Performance-based Services Acquisitions, if appropriate. The NG believes 

that performance-based tasks are desirable and consistent with the NGB’s goals and 

objectives, which are performance metric based. This contract will implement 

performance-based tasks where appropriate. 

The express purpose of this IDIQ contract is to award a contract to a single contractor 

capable of providing management, supervision, personnel, material and equipment to 

plan, create, design, produce, place, evaluate and measure the effectiveness of 

Marketing activities. 

C.2 PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT FOR NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU 

MARKETING PROGRAMS 

C.2.1 Scope

services shall support national marketing needs, localized ARNG and ANG marketing 

needs in the 54 States and Territories, and the needs of the State Public Affairs offices. 

The Government may also require Contractor support services on additional localized 

marketing programs. The Government will specify required deliverable items within 

individual task orders. Contractor personnel may be co-located with authorized 

government personnel in contractor and/or government facilities, dependent upon task

development, design, production, management, and schedule of ARNG mobile 

recruiting and retention programs. (Similar programs with other military agencies 

include the Navy Blue Angels, Air Force Thunderbirds, Army mobile exhibit teams or

In addition, the Contractor shall be responsible for the development of marketing 

training materials for the members of the communities associated with the offices 

included in the scope of this contract. These materials may include, but shall not be 

limited to, off-the-shelf marketing books, video, training aids and other motivational 

materials supporting the professional development of the ARNG and ANG recruiter 

sales and service forces. 

Except when cost-prohibitive or otherwise not recommended (such as when 

professional talent is used), the Contractor shall ensure that all materials developed are 

the sole intellectual property of the government and that the Government can 

reproduce, alter, localize, promote and distribute them at will and into perpetuity. The 

government will identify and/or appoint authorized government representatives, 

including the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR), under the basic contract 

award or on a task order basis.

Section H - Special Contract Requirements 

SPECIAL CONTRACT REQUIREMENTS

H.1 PURPOSE AND SCOPE 

The purpose of this performance-based Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) 

services contract is to provide contractor support services to continue, improve, and 

develop innovative Marketing programs. These Marketing programs respond to NG’s 

foremost goal, which is to attain and maintain Congressionally authorized end-strength. 

The effectiveness in meeting its objectives will be demonstrated through the use of 

required National Guard metrics as well as additional performance metrics proposed by 

the offerors. NGB requires a solution that addresses both the competition requirements 

and a single focal point. 

The IDIQ services contractor will respond to NGB task orders to develop and implement 

a comprehensive set of programs that helps NGB meet their objectives. This services 

contractor will work to coordinate all reporting and monitoring of the status of each task 

order it is awarded. The contractor will be able to team with outside subcontractors and 

vendors to round out the full complement of skills required by this solicitation. 

Consistent with performance-based contracting practices, NGB will define the work in 

terms of objectives rather than specific tasks. As a result, it then becomes the offeror’s 

responsibility to propose how the stated objectives would be achieved and to define the 

metrics to measure performance. This IDIQ services contractor acquisition will result in 

a single award for a services contract. 

The Marketing task orders currently support the National Guard Directorates. This is not 

a requirements contract as defined at FAR 16.503. The contractor shall provide 

services, on a task order basis, that are both national and local in scope in accordance 

with Section C and the task order-specific description of the work. 

 a. Minimum Guaranteed Funding Amount: The contractor shall receive a 

minimum of $500,000 over the life of the contract. This is the total amount that will be 

paid to the contractor in the event that the total sum of all task orders issued under the 

contract does not equal the minimum amount specified. 

b. Maximum Contract Amount: The total maximum award for all services 

contracts is not to exceed $475 million in task orders over the life of the contract. 

H.2 SAFEGUARDING OF INFORMATION 

The Government expects the contractor and its employees shall exercise the utmost 

discretion in regard to all matters relating to their duties and functions. They shall not 

communicate to any person any information known to them by reason of their 

performance of services under this contract or subsequent task orders that has not been 

made public or without the written authorization of the Government Contracting Officer 

and Contracting Officer Representative/Contracting Officer Technical Representative 

(COR/COTR).

Page 53 of 75 

Furthermore, no article, book, pamphlet, recording, broadcast, speech, television 

appearance, film, diagrams/drawings, or photograph (which this list is not limited to) 

concerning any aspect of work performed under this contract shall be published or 

disseminated through any media without the prior written authorization of the Contracting 

Officer and the COR/COTR. 

These obligations do not cease upon the expiration or termination of this contract. The 

contractor shall include the substance of this provision in all contracts of employment and 

in all subcontracts hereunder. 

H.3 GOVERNMENT OWNED INFORMATION 

All information, databases, data, programming, documents, intellectual property (logos, 

slogans, program names), and records (which this list is not limited to) generated or 

collected during the performance of work under this contract shall be for the sole use of 

and become the exclusive property of the U.S. Government. The contractor shall allow 

Government access to any and all information, databases, data, programming, 

documents, and records (which this list is not limited to) within one (1) working day of the 

date of request. At the completion or the termination of this contract all information, 

databases, data, programming, documents, and records (which this list is not limited to) 

shall be turned over to the Government in an appropriate format to render them readily 

usable by the Government or a successor contractor. 

These obligations do not cease upon the expiration or termination of this contract. The 

contractor shall include the substance of this provision in all contracts of employment and 

in all subcontracts hereunder. 

H.4 GOVERNMENT ACCESS 

The contractor shall provide Government and its representatives (as directed by the 

Government) access to all project-related activities and facilities for the term of the 

contract. 

H.5 GOVERNMENT-FURNISHED EQUIPMENT, MATERIAL, AND INFORMATION 

It is anticipated that for some task orders, Government Furnished Equipment and 

Material will be specified in the individual task order (at the discretion of the 

Government). Such equipment and material will be returned to the Government upon 

the conclusion of the contract, as specified in the individual task order, or as directed in 

writing by the KO. 

Government Furnished Information relevant to the tasks to be performed under this 

contract will be provided to the Contractor for use during the performance of the task

adjustments to the Task Order Form in as little as 1 business day. 

H.21 NONDISCLOSURE OF SENSITIVE AND/OR PROPRIETARY INFORMATION 

The contractor recognizes that in the performance of this contract it may receive or 

have access to certain sensitive information, including information provided on a 

proprietary basis by private or public entities. The contractor agrees to use and examine 

this information exclusively in the performance of this contract and to take the 

necessary steps in accordance with Government regulations to prevent disclosure of 

such information to any party outside the Government or Government designated 

support contractors possessing appropriate proprietary agreements, as listed in 

paragraphs (a) through (c) below. 

NGB FOIA Reading Room Record

sensitive/proprietary information to the minimum number of employees necessary 

for contract performance. 

(b) The contractor shall be required to coordinate and exchange directly with other 

contractors as designated by the Government for information pertinent and essential

discuss and attempt to resolve any problems between the contractor and those 

contractors designated by the Government. The contractor shall furnish the 

Contracting Officer and the Contracting Officer’s Representative copies of 

communications between the contractor and associated contractor(s) relative to 

contract performance. Further, the close interchange between contractor(s) may 

require access to or release of proprietary data. In such an event, the contractor 

shall enter into agreement(s) with the Government designated contractor(s) to 

adequately protect such proprietary data from unauthorized use or disclosure so 

long as it remains proprietary. 

(c) Remedy for Breach. The contractor agrees that any breach or violation of the 

restrictions of this clause shall constitute a material and substantial breach of the 

terms, conditions and provisions of the contract and that the Government may, in 

addition to any other remedy available, terminate this contract for default in 

accordance with the provisions of FAR 52.249-6 or FAR 52.249-8, as applicable. 

Nothing in this clause or contract shall be construed to mean that the Government 

shall be liable to the owners of proprietary information in any way for the 

unauthorized release or use of proprietary information by this contractor or its 

subcontractors.

restrictions, strikes, unusually severe weather, and delays of common carriers. The Contractor shall notify the

shall not be paid for any work performed or costs incurred which reasonably could have been avoided. 

(m) Termination for cause. The Government may terminate this contract, or any part hereof, for cause in the event of 

any default by the Contractor, or if the Contractor fails to comply with any contract terms and conditions, or fails to

for cause, the Government shall not be liable to the Contractor for any amount for supplies or services not accepted,

responsible during performance and through final payment of any contract for the accuracy and completeness of the 

data within the CCR database, and for any liability resulting from the Government's reliance on inaccurate or 

incomplete data. To remain registered in the CCR database after the initial registration, the Contractor is required to 

review and update on an annual basis from the date of initial registration or subsequent updates its information in the 

CCR database to ensure it is current, accurate and complete. Updating information in the CCR does not alter the 

terms and conditions of this contract and is not a substitute for a properly executed contractual document. 

(2)(i) If a Contractor has legally changed its business name, “doing business as” name, or division name (whichever 

is shown on the contract), or has transferred the assets used in performing the contract, but has not completed the 

necessary requirements regarding novation and change-of-name agreements in FAR subpart 42.12, the Contractor 

shall provide the responsible Contracting Officer a minimum of one business day's written notification of its 

intention to (A) change the name in the CCR database; (B) comply with the requirements of subpart 42.12; and (C) 

agree in writing to the timeline and procedures specified by the responsible Contracting Officer. The Contractor must 

provide with the notification sufficient documentation to support the legally changed name.

Page 65 of 75 

(ii) If the Contractor fails to comply with the requirements of paragraph (t)(2)(i) of this clause, or fails to perform the 

agreement at paragraph (t)(2)(i)(C) of this clause, and, in the absence of a properly executed novation or change-ofname agreement, the CCR information that shows the Contractor to be other than the 

Contractor indicated in the contract will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the 

“Suspension of Payment” paragraph of the electronic funds transfer (EFT) clause of this contract. 

(3) The Contractor shall not change the name or address for EFT payments or manual payments, as appropriate, in 

the CCR record to reflect an assignee for the purpose of assignment of claims (see Subpart 32.8, Assignment of 

Claims). Assignees shall be separately registered in the CCR database. Information provided to the Contractor's CCR 

record that indicates payments, including those made by EFT, to an ultimate recipient other than that Contractor will 

be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the “Suspension of payment” paragraph of the EFT 

clause of this contract. 

(4) Offerors and Contractors may obtain information on registration and annual confirmation requirements via the 

internet at http://www.ccr.gov or by calling 1-888-227-2423 or 269-961-5757.
