Description of Requirement: The SCoE was established as the result of BRAC 2005 Congressional decision to consolidate missions and functions at Fort Lee, VA; with the Ordnance Mechanical Maintenance School moving from Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD; the Ordnance Munitions and Electronic Maintenance School from Redstone Arsenal, AL; and elements of the Transportation School moving from Fort Eustis, VA. The SCoE anticipates a requirement for a support contract to provide instructional and training support services provided by the Ordnance School, Quartermaster School, Transportation School, and Army Logistics University (ALU). The SCoE brings together these schools, and as a single organization is responsible for nearly all Army sustainment training, leader education, and associated combat developments. However combat and training developments are not part of the requirements, only training and training support. Included within the SCoE is the establishment of the ALU, which consolidated all of the Armys logistics professional military education, included Officer and Warrant basic and advanced course training (Officer Basic Course, Combined Logistics Captains Career Course, Warrant Officer Basic Course, and Warrant Officer Advanced Course), Noncommissioned Officer Academy (NCOA) course training, professional development, and functional training for military and civilians. All three schools (Ordnance, Quartermaster, and Transportation) are responsible for technical training of Advanced Individual Training (AIT) Soldiers, noncommissioned officers, warrant officers, officers, civilians, and foreign military. Ordnance School trains in the fields of material maintenance and integrated material management of combating fire power and ground mobility material, logistics management (ammunition supply, maintenance, and life cycle), Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD), and combat support and combat service support tests. Quartermaster School trains supply, field services, aerial delivery, and mortuary affairs. Transportation School trains current and future Army transportation capability, Intermodal Operations, Maritime, and rail. The ALU trains the Armys logistics officers, warrant officers, noncommissioned officers, civilians, and foreign military in professional military education, functional, materiel, and distribution management. This anticipated requirement is to provide training and training support to augment personnel in the schools whose mission it is to train, educate, and support training. Requirement includes extensive technical knowledge and instructor qualifications in order to use TRADOC approved programs of instruction (POIs); to be in compliance with government defined instructor to student-ratios; to provide classroom instruction; hands-on performance oriented training, simulation/virtual training, and/or field exercise training or combative driven scenario training.

Anticipated acquisition requires comprehensive Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) knowledge for the presentation of specific subject matter. This academic instruction includes platform and hands-on instructional in resident and field training environments based on POIs. Academic instruction includes but is not limited to classroom/laboratory/field/conference discussion, demonstration and practical and simulation exercises; includes administering written and performance hands-on based tests; and conducting critiques. Academic and training instructors must possess fundamentals on being an instructor. Indirect instructional classroom and student support includes preparing classrooms and equipment for training; retrieving course documents, preparing training materials for instruction; performing remedial training support; assisting with administration functions associated with in processing, graduating, and recording grades of students; conducting counseling; grading examinations; and evaluating student performance; and maintaining classroom control. Anticipated acquisition requires for qualified personnel to support various training events of Logistics Warrior Training Exercise, Convoy Live Fire Exercise and range training operations. These training events could occur in a classroom, during a field exercise, or live fire exercises, and may occur outside normal duty hours. These training events are classified as training and training support, not combat and training development. For training support, the anticipated requirements include augmenting Logistics Warrior staff in planning and executing a multi-echelon field training exercise, serving as qualified Observer Controllers familiar with Skill Level 10 through 40 Common Tasks (STPs 21-1/24-SMCT) and staff function operations.
