LOGCAP is a program of the U.S. Army to use civilian contractors to provide the U.S. troops with an additional means to adequately support the current and programmed force by performing selected services in wartime and other operations, i.e. Humanitarian A ssistance, Disaster Relief, Peace Keeping, Peace Enforcement, and Major/Minor Conflict. The principal objective of LOGCAP is to provide Combat Support and Combat Service Support (CS/CSS) augmentation to Combatant Commanders (COCOMs) and Army Service Compon ent Commanders (ASCCs) (COCOM/ASCC), primarily during COCOM contingency operations, throughout the full range of military operations to include reconstitution and replenishment, within reasonable cost. Planned changes in the Armys force structure could have an impact on future LOGCAP requirements. LOGCAP services have been authorized by the Department of the Army for use in supporting other military services, coalition and/or multinational forces, and other governmental/non-governmental agencies. Because of the potential need for additional contingency capability and the benefits of changing some elements of the current contract based on lessons learned, the Government proposes to solicit for additional contractors for future LOGCAP requirements. The Government will present some different approaches for industry comment. These preliminary approaches include soliciting for additional contractors to augment the current contract, competing for all new contracts, competing for the functional requireme nts worldwide, competing for global contractors who will get work anywhere, and/or competing for regional contractors. We will also look at whether worldwide and regional planning involving multiple LOGCAP contractors should be done separately by an indep endent contractor, or accomplished by one or more LOGCAP contractors. Any new contracts that might result will be for new LOGCAP requirements after contract award. Any potential solicitation and contracts that may result will require the contractor or contractors to be capable of providing LOGCAP support services. Any resulting contract(s) would be for up to 10 years, with work distributed possibly among no more tha n three contractors. Because of the requirement to work with classified information, contractors must be able to obtain a U.S Facility Clearance to the SECRET level in accordance with (IAW) Department of Defense Directive (DoDD) 5220.22 of the National In dustrial Security Program Operating Manual (NISPOM). This SECRET level clearance also applies to affiliates, team members, and subcontractors if they have access to classified information. A contractor would be required to execute support in all types of environments on multiple task orders, simultaneously, in support of several dozen to tens of thousands troops per task order in the following areas: Supply Operations. Class I (Rations and Water), Class II (Organizational Clothing and Equipment and Administrative Supplies), Class III (Petroleum, Oil and Lubricants - both Bulk and Package), Class IV (Construction Materials), Class V (Ammunition - to i nclude Ammunition Supply Point Operations), Class VI (Personal Demand Items), Class VII (Major Items), Class VIII (Medical Supplies), and Class IX (Repair Parts- to include Requisition, Receipt, Stora ge, Issue, Accountability, and Materiel Management). Field Services. Clothing Exchange and Bath (CEB), Laundry, Clothing Repair, Food Service, Mortuary Affairs, Sanitation to include Hazardous Waste, Billeting, Facilities Management, Morale Welfare and Recreation (MWR), Information Management, Postal Opera tions, and Administration such as Personnel Support and Banking Support.

Current Government voucher processing time is 21 calendar days plus contractor time prior to submitting to the Government. Contractors may incur significant expense prior to Government reimbursement. Contractors must have the capability to track costs do wn to the subcontract level, and be able to work with foreign suppliers whose systems are not in compliance with U.S. accounting standards. All contractor invoices are subject to audit by appropriate audit agencies of the US Government. Contractors must have the capability to hire foreign national workers and comply with host country labor laws. They must also be able to rapidly establish logistics routes to move material to troops.
