PRIORITY OF SERVICE

H5 – Priority of Service

Iridium agrees to provide up to [***] priority SIM cards for DISA-Sponsored users.

The basis for Iridium Priority, Precedence, and Pre-Emption (PPP) service is the set of mechanisms designed for, and already implemented in, the Iridium Satellite Network for signaling and system management purposes. The Iridium Satellite Network utilizes two resource management functions, Acquisition Class (AC) control and Priority Class (PC) control, to assure access to communication channels for priority users. PPP service is currently available for Subscriber Information Module (SIM) based services only. Only subscriber devices with the proper AC are allowed to start the acquisition process. ACs range from [***]. Currently, ACs [***] and [***] are under SV flow control for non-safety and non-priority Iridium devices. ACs [***] and [***] are not under SV flow control and can be utilized to designate priority service over the constellation. DoD priority SIM cards will be assigned AC [***].

 

The AC governs which subscriber devices will be permitted access to the satellite constellation while the PC provides continued access for DoD priority calls. The Iridium Satellite Network supports four Priority Class levels. Each satellite has priority queuing for both channel assignment of new calls and handoff order of in-progress calls. High priority calls take precedence and are queued before low priority calls. There are [***] levels of PC that can be mapped based on DoD requirements:

SERVICE AVAILABILITY

H6 – Service Availability

Service availability is defined as the ability of an EMSS customer to be able to obtain and maintain service connectivity for any service under this contract.

Iridium is required to meet the service availability requirements defined and contained within this contract’s Statement of Work.

[***]

Any credit shall be applied to the invoice for the applicable month in which the actual service performance did not meet the target service performance metric; provided, however, that in no event shall the total disincentive payment credits for an individual contract year exceed [***].

The [***] and [***] exclude any outage that may be caused by: (1) interference caused by Ka-Band transmissions from other satellite systems; (2) outages resulting from issues in Ka-Band connectivity between the Iridium constellation and the EMSS Gateway that are capable of being resolved through implementation of a remote Earth Terminal solution, but excluding outages resulting from Iridium network anomalies that would not be resolved by a remote Earth Terminal solution; (3) the EMSS Gateway (such as autodialers placed in locations with obscura or the lack of timely coordination with Iridium for autodialers exhibiting performance issues); and/or (4) outages outside the control of Iridium, such as an act of nature (such as heavy rainstorms, tropical storms and/or hurricanes), act of Government, act of war, act of terrorism or other force majeure, all of which will excuse Iridium from meeting the [***] and/or [***] provided above.

HC1047-14-C-4000

 

(a)If the Government cancels any of the services ordered under this agreement/contract, before the services are made available to the Government, or terminates any of these services after they are made available to the Government, the Government shall reimburse the Contractor for the actual nonrecoverable costs the Contractor has reasonably incurred in providing facilities and equipment for which the Contractor has no foreseeable reuse.

 

(b)The amount of the Government's liability upon cancellation or termination of any of the services ordered under this agreement/contract will be determined under applicable tariffs governing cancellation and termination charges which--

 

(1)Are filed by the Contractor with a governmental regulatory body, as defined in the Rates, Charges, and Services clause of this agreement/contract;

 

(2) Are in effect on the date of termination; and

 

(3)Provide specific cancellation or termination charges for the facilities and equipment involved or show how to determine the charges.

 

(c)The amount of the Government's liability upon cancellation or termination of any of the services ordered under this agreement/contract, which are not subject to a governmental regulatory body, will be determined under a mutually agreed schedule in the communication services authorization (CSA) or other contractual document.

 

(d)If no applicable tariffs are in effect on the date of cancellation or termination or set forth in the applicable CSA or other contractual document, the Government's liability will be determined under the following settlement procedures--

 

(1)The Contractor agrees to provide the Contracting Officer, in such reasonable detail as the Contracting Officer may require, inventory schedules covering all items of property or facilities in the Contractor's possession, the cost of which is included in the Basic Cancellation or Termination Liability for which the Contractor has no foreseeable reuse.

 

(2)The Contractor shall use its best efforts to sell property or facilities when the Contractor has no foreseeable reuse or when the Government has not exercised its option to take title under the Title to Telecommunications Facilities and Equipment clause of this agreement/contract. The Contractor shall apply any proceeds of the sale to reduce any payments by the Government to the Contractor under a cancellation or termination settlement.

 

(3)The Contractor shall record actual nonrecoverable costs under established accounting procedures prescribed by the cognizant governmental regulatory authority or, if no such procedures have been prescribed, under generally accepted accounting procedures applicable to the provision of telecommunication services for public use.

 

(4)The actual nonrecoverable costs are the installed costs of the facilities and equipment, less cost of reusable materials, and less net salvage value. Installed costs shall include the actual cost of equipment and materials specifically provided or used, plus the actual cost of installing (including engineering, labor, supervision, transportation, rights-of-way, and any other items which are chargeable to the capital accounts of the Contractor) less any costs the Government may have directly reimbursed the Contractor under the Special Construction and Equipment Charges clause of this agreement/contract. Deduct from the Contractor's installed cost, the net salvage value (salvage value less cost of removal). In determining net salvage value, give consideration to foreseeable reuse of the facilities and equipment by the Contractor. Make allowance for the cost of dismantling, removal, reconditioning, and disposal of the facilities and equipment when necessary either to the sale of facilities or their reuse by the Contractor in another location.

 

(5)The Basic Cancellation Liability is defined as the actual nonrecoverable cost which the Government shall reimburse the Contractor at the time services are cancelled. The Basic Termination Liability is defined as the nonrecoverable cost amortized in equal monthly increments throughout the liability period. Upon termination of services, the Government shall reimburse the Contractor for the nonrecoverable cost less such costs amortized to the date services are terminated. Establish the liability period as mutually agreed to but not to exceed ten years.

HC1047-14-C-4000

 

(6)When the Basic Cancellation or Termination Liability established by the CSA or other contractual document is based on estimated costs, the Contractor agrees to settle on the basis of actual cost at the time of termination or cancellation.

 

(7)The Contractor agrees that, if after settlement but within the termination liability period of the services, should the Contractor make reuse of equipment or facilities which were treated as nonreusable or nonsalvable in the settlement, the Contractor shall reimburse the Government for the value of the equipment or facilities.

 

(8) The Contractor agrees to exclude--

 

(i)Any costs which are not included in determining cancellation and termination charges under the Contractor's standard practices or procedures; and

 

(ii)Charges not ordinarily made by the Contractor for similar facilities or equipment, furnished under similar circumstances.

 

(e)The Government may, under such terms and conditions as it may prescribe, make partial payments and payments on account against costs incurred by the Contractor in connection with the cancelled or terminated portion of this agreement/contract.

ENHANCED MOBILE SATELLITE SERVICES AIRTIME

STATEMENT OF WORK

 

1.0 Overview

 

This Statement of Work (SOW) defines requirements for Enhanced Mobile Satellite Services (EMSS) acquisition to serve the Department of Defense (DOD) and other United States Government (USG) users throughout the world by leveraging the commercial Iridium Satellite LLC, hereinafter “Iridium” satellite constellation. Specifically, this SOW provides the DISA-Sponsored subscribers with EMSS airtime service utilizing the Iridium constellation.

 

1.1 Background

 

The DOD/USG has validated requirements for voice and data communications to support missions in polar regions, special operations, Very Important Person (VIP) communications, search and rescue operations, disaster relief efforts and other Command, Control, Communications and Intelligence (C3I) efforts worldwide. These communications may be located within line of sight, over the horizon, at a distant theater location, or at a distant CONUS or OCONUS location. To support many of these missions, these communications will require end-to-end security interoperability with the existing embedded base of Type I Secure equipment. The communications network required to support these locations must provide global coverage from 90 degrees North to 90 degrees South. To allow user mobility, the secure handset must be small and light weight. EMSS provides a means to accommodate many, if not all, of the war fighter and other mission requirements.

 

1.2 Contract Scope

 

This contract provides DOD/USG with a global satellite communication services for handset, pager, Subscriber Identification Module (SIM)-based and SIM-less short burst data (SBD), Distributed Tactical Communications System (DTCS) push-to-talk (PTT) or like services and other potential mobile/stationary configurations. Future services and/or capabilities may be developed for the Iridium / EMSS gateway and may be incorporated into this contract. This contract provides for unlimited airtime services, or some other variation thereof as further defined in the contract. The Contractor shall provide access service to individual Government subscribers who may possess pagers, handsets, SBD-enabled devices, or other devices and equipment.

Manufacturing, ordering and provisioning of handsets, secure sleeves, pagers and other communication devices and accessories will be accomplished under a separate contract. In addition, the day-to-day operation and maintenance (O&M) of the Government Gateway used to support Iridium services for the DOD/USG and to provide connectivity to the global Defense Information System Network (DISN) will be accomplished under a separate contract.

 

The Contractor shall ensure the Government is allowed complete access to the global Iridium system and services utilizing full Government unique functionality.

 

The Contractor shall cooperate and coordinate with other EMSS contractors on the Gateway operation on user account information, provisioning, troubleshooting and any other information essential to EMSS.

 

1.2.1 Definitions

 

Subscriber

A government Iridium service subscriber is an individual who uses a voice or data device or pager. Each telephone device that uses a SIM card, each L-Band Transceiver (LBT), each stand alone pager, and each SIM-less SBD device registered and activated for service to the DOD Gateway will be counted as a separate subscriber. Pagers registered and activated for use in a follow-me pager mode in conjunction with a handset will not be counted as a separate subscriber.

 

Follow-Me Paging

Follow-me paging means that the pager works in conjunction with an Iridium handset to maintain the user’s location, and therefore, eliminates the need to update message delivery areas.

SOURCE SELECTION INFORMATION – SEE FAR 2.101 AND 3.104

 

Stand-Alone Paging

Stand-alone paging is independent of voice service, and applies where a subscriber can specify up to three delivery areas where the pager will receive messages.

 

SIM

Subscriber Identification Module (SIM) is a smart card roughly the size of a postage stamp that securely stores the key identifying a mobile phone service subscriber, as well as, subscription information, saved telephone numbers, preferences, text messages and other information.

 

Short Burst Data

Short Burst Data (SBD) is a data service that enables wireless data applications to cost-effectively send and receive short data transactions efficiently over the Iridium network using either the 9522 LBT or 9600 series Talladega SBD modem or future SBD modems

 

Multicast

Multicast (commonly referred to as DTCS) provides the sender the ability to transmit a single voice and/or data message to a select group of recipients on the network. Multicast networks will not be counted as a subscriber.

 

Global Multicast

This capability may be incorporated into other handsets or devices that utilize the Iridium network. Multicast networks will not be counted as a subscriber.

 

Global Data Broadcast

Global Data Broadcast (GDB) is a satellite-based wireless broadcast service. The GDB service allows data providers to reach an unlimited number of subscribers quickly and efficiently. Any type of digital data can be delivered to discrete locations, single and/or multiple non-contiguous regions, or globally. Users can be part of one or more broadcast groups and receive multiple subscriber services simultaneously
