This is a 100% Small Business Set-Aside, NAICS code is 541611. The contractor will be required to meet the following objectives: 1. To review current Biological Weapons Convention (BWC) Work Program and its potential impact on DoD equities and assess steps taken to produce tangible results to improve universal implementation of the BWC and significantly strengthen non-proliferation efforts worldwide. 2. Contractor will compile information on what actions have taken place domestically and/or international as a result of the 2003 - 2005 BWC Work Program and assess what value such actions have in combating the threat posed by BW. 3. Based on research and analysis, identify areas of potential proliferation concern, re-validate DoD equities and develop a plan of action and recommendations for sustaining the positive accomplishments of the current work program beyond 2006. 4. Key areas of proliferation concern, may include, but are not limited to, States not Part to the BWC, non-state actors (terrorism), proliferation networks, dual-use materials, the spread of intellectual property, and the growth of biotechnology. a. How has the Work Program affected these concerns? b. What other initiatives can be taken beyond 2006 within the framework of the BWC and/or outside the BWC to relieve these concerns? 5. The contractor will identify, worst case scenarios, understood as BWC activities with negative affects on DoD, as well as other interagency (e.g., DoC, DoE, HHS), equities, that could be proposed for action beyond 2006. These scenarios should be assess ed for their nonproliferation benefits and shortfalls. 6. The contractor will identify programs, operations, and other equities that can be negatively affected by worst case scenario activities undertaken in the BWC forum. 7. The contractor will assess and prioritize these equities based on the significance of the impact on DoD responsibilities worldwide. 8.
