DEPARTMENT OF WAR EDUCATION ACTIVITY (DoWEA)

PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS)

FOR

SUPER INTELLIGENCE (SI) EDUCATION SUPPORT SOLUTION

1.0 Introduction

1.1 Background

The Department of War Education Activity (DoWEA) is one of only two federally operated school systems. DoWEA plans, directs, coordinates, and manages pre-kindergarten through grade 12 educational programs in 160 fully accredited schools that serve over 65,000 children of active-duty military and DoW civilian families. Our curriculum, resources and student achievement scores on standardized assessments compare favorably to those of high-performing US public school systems.
DoWEA is overseen by a director located at our headquarters in Alexandria, VA. Our schools are organized into three geographic areas: Americas, Europe, and Pacific. In the Americas, DoWEA operates 50 schools located in seven states, Puerto Rico, and Cuba. In Europe and the Middle East, DoWEA operates 64 schools located in Germany, England, Netherlands, Belgium, Spain, Italy, Turkey, and Bahrain. In the Pacific, DoWEA operates 45 schools located in South Korea, Japan (mainland and Okinawa), and Guam. DoWEA also operates one fully accredited virtual high school with teaching hubs in the Americas, Europe, and Pacific. As a reminder, FAR Clause 52.212 4(q) requires the Contractor to comply with all applicable Federal, state, and local laws, executive orders, rules, and regulations applicable to its performance under this contract. DoWEA, which is a DoW field activity, provides education from pre-kindergarten through grade 12. Executive Order 14168, Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government, and Executive Order 14190, Ending Radical Indoctrination in K–12 Schooling, are particularly applicable to DoWEA contracts.
DoWEA is modernizing our instructional technology portfolio to support highly mobile students and their educators. Current research and evidence indicate that well-designed AI tools can (1) produce meaningful benefits for students and teachers and (2) carry documented risks that must be actively managed. The terms ‘Super Intelligence’ and ‘SI,’ for purposes of this contract, are as defined in Sec. 3 (a) of Executive Order 14434, Inaugurating the Era of Super Intelligence.

1.2 Scope
