- Description
- Sources Sought notice for Military Advisor Support Team (MAST) Joint Contracting Command – Iraq, Theater Wide Requirements Division, will solicit sources to provide support to the Iraqi Assistance Group (IAG) in the form of a Military Advisor Support Team (MAST). This team specifically supports various Military Transition Teams (MiTT). The MAST members are assigned to various Mitts throughout the theater and are expected to live with the MiTTs outside the “wire” on Iraqi Military facilities, under Iraqi living conditions and participate with MiTT special operations and convoy duties. The contractor shall provide the capability to support MiTTs by providing MAST, consisting of former Special Operations/Foreign Internal Defense (SO/FID) experts and vetted Iraqi-National Military Advisors (INMA) who possesses extensive prior Iraqi military experience at division and brigade levels. MAST support primarily provides MiTT Commanders and the IAG Foreign Internal Defense (FID) technicians where there currently are none. These technicians augment MiTT and IAG capabilities with essential expertise on FID techniques, procedures and application. The MAST workforce also has extensive experience living, training, and working with indigenous military forces. MAST special operations FID experts assist MiTTs in understanding and applying FID techniques, and provide written analysis, assessments and reports. The team will also prepare to link up with MiTTs during their CONUS training and participate in their train-up. MAST composition will remain flexible and tailorable based on individual MiTT missions and requirements. MiTTs face challenges associated with differences in national identity, ethnicity, social norms, religion, history, training methodology and continuity of operations. MiTTs must advise, train and assist Iraqi units and establish functional relationships with their Iraqi counterparts, and they must do so in a hazardous and challenging environment that offers multiple opportunities for failure. This requirement supports the overall goals of MNF-I and the Government of Iraq (GoI). The contractor shall be responsible for adherence to all U.S. Government, Coalition and Iraqi laws and regulations associated with operations in Iraq. Response to this notice is not an offer and cannot be accepted by the Government to form a binding contract.

SOC Format: Files shall be Microsoft Office 2003 (Word and/or Excel) or pdf format only. The SOC shall be organized and formatted so that an extensive search of the SOC is not necessary. Each SOC shall contain a separate “Table of Contents” that identifies all paragraphs and subparagraphs covered within by paragraph and subparagraph number, title and by page number, a list of tables, figures, etc. All computer files shall be virus checked prior to submission. Offerors may be held financially liable for damage caused to USG computer systems by virus introduced during review of these submitted documents. All text shall be single spaced and printed black on white paper (black on white requirement does not apply to graphics, photos, etc., company stationary and logo’s are acceptable).
