HSMR/SOAR Training

equip Air Force Medical Treatment Facilities (MTFs) with the skills and knowledge necessary to achieve and maintain optimal readiness for all-hazards emergencies. The training's primary objective is to sustain and enhance both the Medical Contingency Response Plan (MCRP) and Home Station Medical Response Readiness (HSMR) capabilities within the MTFs. This training must be executed in full compliance with stringent regulatory and procedural guidelines, specifically: Defense Health Agency (DHA) Administrative Instruction 6055.02, DoDI 6200.03, AFI 10-2501, AFI 10-2519, AFI 41-106, and AFTTP 3-42.32. The program will provide Air Force leaders and staff with the knowledge of USAF and Air Force Medical Service (AFMS) procedures for effective medical response to installation incidents. A critical element of the training is enhancing performance assessment capabilities through the comprehensive implementation and reinforcement of the Response Training and Assessment Program (RTAP) tools. This empowers team chiefs to systematically evaluate the performance of their MCRP teams against established mission requirements and the defined Concept of Operations (CONOPS). The training will emphasize the practical application and thorough analysis of RTAP results, enabling the identification of specific areas requiring improvement and facilitating targeted corrective actions. The training program further provides robust support to Air Force MTFs in adapting to the evolving landscape of Emergency Management requirements, including HSMR, Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (C-CBRN) defense, and Public Health Emergencies. The training encompasses a detailed assessment of MTF capabilities across the all-hazards spectrum. This is achieved through targeted training and realistic exercise scenarios in key areas, including (but not limited to): Mass Prophylaxis Point of Dispensing (POD) exercises Public Health Team Training (including Session II) Foodborne Illness Investigation Exercises Bioenvironmental Engineering Training White Powder Response Drills POD Walk Through Sessions Biological Agent Response Tabletop Exercises Medical Control Center (MCC) Operations Medical Command and Control (C2) and Patient Tracking Exercises Field Response Team Training Disaster Mental Health Team Training Triage Team Training Clinical Team Training Aircraft Mishap Full-Scale Exercises Active Shooter Awareness Training Evacuation and Shelter-In-Place Healthcare Setting procedures MTF Recall and Accountability Drills Mass Warning Notification Tabletop Exercises (including Mass Warning Notification System Protocols) Active Shooter Full Scale Exercises First Receivers Awareness Training First Receivers Operations Training C-CBRN Mass Casualty Full-Scale Exercises MTF Operations in a CBRN Environment Continuity of Operations (COOP) Planning Workshops and Tabletop Exercises Hospital Incident Command System (HICS) Training Patient Evacuation Full-Scale Exercises Lack of competition justification: A6A Associates is the proprietary owner and sole provider of the Sustainment Operations for AFMS Responders (SOAR) training platform within the commercial marketplace and does not have authorized resellers.The SOAR concept includes several proprietary and unique methodologies and tools designed by A6A, including: The CODE SILVER tabletop exercise methodology Scenario-specific process (chemical, aircraft mishap, public health emergency) analytical patient tracking and proprietary scientifically-developed casualty/patient simulation cards The SOAR HSMR Exercise Outcomes process (chemical, aircraft mishap, public health emergency). A6A is the only company with the qualifications to deliver a SOAR training. No other company possesses the concept, the materials, the experience and the proprietary methodologies. Market research was conducted and it has confirmed that the above company is able to meet the government's needs. Accordingly, a sole source award will be made to A6A Associates.
