This Performance Work Statement (PWS) outlines the requirements for a non-personal services contract to rent two outdoor 35K (or greater) diesel forklifts for the 1st Infantry Division (1ID) at Fort Riley, KS. The forklifts are needed for deployment/redeployment and area support operations due to the unavailability of the 1ID's organic equipment. The contractor will provide the forklifts, including all necessary maintenance, repairs, and delivery/pickup, for a period from February 5, 2026, to February 4, 2027, with potential option periods. The contract also requires the vendor to provide a comprehensive familiarization training session for up to 10 personnel on the safe operation of the forklifts. Key aspects of the PWS include strict adherence to delivery and pick-up schedules, a 24-hour repair completion timeframe, and various security and personnel requirements, such as background checks and Anti-Terrorism Level I training for contractor employees. The government anticipates awarding a Firm Fixed Price contract, and contractor performance will be evaluated against defined standards in a Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan.

The iWATCH Army Program is a nationwide initiative designed to inform the Fort Riley and Kansas (FRKS) community about suspicious activities or behaviors potentially linked to terrorist activities and to encourage reporting such incidents. Originating from a Department of the Army message in 2010, the program emphasizes both situational awareness and active reporting to military police, local law enforcement, or the installation Antiterrorism Office. The training covers the program's origins, public service announcements, indicators of suspicious activity (e.g., unusual interest in security, inappropriate attire, unattended packages, or unusual purchases), and detailed instructions on what and how to report. Case studies like the planned Seattle MEPS attack and the Fort Dix plot highlight the importance of vigilance. The program directs individuals to resources like Army OneSource and the Fort Riley homepage for reporting and additional antiterrorism information, including local contacts for the Installation Antiterrorism Office. Reports can be submitted anonymously via phone, email, or web page, with processes in place for law enforcement and antiterrorism officials to investigate and share threat information.
