The Army Contracting Command-Redstone Arsenal (ACC-RSA) has a requirement for engineering and technical support in the area of the Air and Missile Defense Workstation (AMDWS) Online Delta Training. AMDWS 7.0.1 training requires a full week of in person operator and a full week of system administration training. This is a costly process that takes over two years to train and field the entire force. Incremental fielded updates to AMDWS 7.0.1 can be taught virtually in a web-based environment. AMDWS 7.0.3 online delta training will provide such web-based instruction so soldiers can train remotely, be certified on changes to earlier AMDWS versions, and receive the new AMDWS software. This low-cost alternative enables AMDWS to field within months versus within years. This training will be hosted on LANDWARNET University, and will be similar to previous AMDWS online delta training courses hosted on that site and include a final exam to ensure proficiency of the course of instruction. The contractor must be familiar with AMDWS 7.0.1, which is the base version of AMDWS, and details of changes between it and AMDWS 7.0.2, which has an online delta training course, and AMDWS 7.0.3, which needs an online delta training course and which this mod will provide. The contractor shall coordinate with LANDWARNET University and get the online delta training operational on that site. Online delta training should take less than 8 hours, which can either be done in a day or over a period of time, depending on the soldier’s schedule. The training should be available within 12 months of contract award.
