U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT
Develop and Deliver Training on Safe Rehabilitation of Hurricane-Damaged Homes
With Mold, Lead-Based Paint and Other Housing-Related Hazards
SECTION C – PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS)
I. INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND
The HUD Office of Healthy Homes and Lead Hazard Control (OHHLHC) is seeking to develop training programs to
reach the residential rehabilitation and construction contracting community, property managers, and others in areas
significantly affected by flooding and wind damage caused by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita in the summer of 2005, with
specific focus on low- and medium-income housing in the federally-designated disaster areas of Louisiana, Mississippi,
and Texas (see www.fema.gov). The overall purpose of this Statement of Work is to prepare, develop and deliver
separate types of training to various target populations described below.
This project involves qualifying trainers and coordinating their delivery of training courses on Healthy Homes issues in
damaged housing. It requires the Contractor to identify, reach and train existing environmental, health and safety trainers
and prepare them to train two other groups on healthy homes remediation methods and lead-safe work practices during the
clean-up, repair and rehabilitation of buildings containing health hazards. The two intended groups to receive the training
are:
a) residential rehabilitation and construction contractors and volunteer program participants; and,
b) homeowners, property managers and government officials.
A. Summary of Activities: The Contractor shall perform the following three general tasks:
1. Planning: Perform a comprehensive training needs analysis. This is an initial needs-based determination of
the target audiences in the geographic areas to prioritize training to be delivered. Develop Training Project
Plan (TPP; see par. 2.2.2, below).
2. Development: Design and develop a modular training curriculum in English, translate into Spanish, and
accompanying Train-the-Trainer curriculum in English and Spanish:
Module 1: Classroom, instructor-led training curriculum, approximately 3 hours in length and having
an end-of-module test, designed for homeowners, property owners, managers and government
officials to:
a. raise their awareness of housing-based health hazards encountered during
rehabilitation of hurricane-damaged properties,
b. identify the type of rehabilitation activities they can safely perform themselves and
when to hire professionals, and;
c. enable them to manage properties safely.
Module 2: Classroom, instructor-led training curriculum, including hands-on demonstration and
practice, designed for contractors and workers in renovation, rehabilitation and other building
construction trades, to enable them to perform their work activities safely in the post-hurricane
environment with course duration (including course test) of at least 7 (Module 2 should be 4 hours
since 1+2 will be a total of 7 hour) hours total, including at least 1.5 hours of hands-on training.
Prerequisite: Module 1.
A Train-The-Trainer Training (T4) curriculum for mold clean-up and building repair enabling
experienced work practices trainers to teach the course and of a length, including course test, of
approximately 7 hours total, including at least 1.5 hours of hands-on training.
3. Training Delivery and Evaluation: Coordinate and arrange the delivery of all courses by the trainers to the desired
audiences in target areas based on the needs of the geographical areas. Contractor shall also evaluate the training
activities and implement its Quality Assurance/Evaluation plan.
HUD’s policy priorities for this work include:
1. Providing opportunities for contractors and others to easily and efficiently obtain useful information on lead
and mold clean up, during remodeling, rebuilding and when to use a professional mold assessor/mediator;
obtain contractor buy-in and ensure that participants understand the purpose of the training;
2. Recruit trainees in the affected areas through trade groups, CBOs, FBOs, and other organizations, and also by
creative strategies and through partnerships with corporations, non-profits, schools or other pathways to reach
individuals who are not members of a group, trade association or organization; avoiding replication by
adapting, translating and/or disseminating existing effective training materials about Healthy Homes
construction or rebuilding;
3. Adapting or translating information as needed to accommodate training candidates in the construction trades
who have limited English proficiency, have varying levels of literacy, and/or are visually- or hearing-
impaired;
4. Partnering with the home supply industry (e.g., Ace, Home Depot, Lowe’s) and stores selling building
materials (e.g., K-Mart, Sears, Wal-Mart) to disseminate training information and/or deliver training courses
such as in-store “how-to” clinics (we assume these clinics are not something additional, but the project course
modules); working with local groups including newspapers, magazines, radio and/or TV stations to determine
cost-effective methods of communicating training opportunities to intended recipients.
5. Training provider general compliance with the requirements of American National Standard Institute (ANSI)
Standard Z490.1-2001, “Criteria for Accepted Practices in Safety, Health and Environmental Training.”
When a provision in the ANSI standard and this contract conflict, this contract supersedes. For example, the
ANSI standard requires training providers to issue “certificates.” HUD requires “notices of completion” (vs.
“certificates”) for lead-related courses that are not covered by regulatory certification provisions. Training
providers should issue “notices of completion.” (For information on how to obtain a copy of the training
standard from ANSI, see the contact information provided in Appendix I to this document.)
HUD is interested in building permanent local capacity to perform training and education, safe rehabilitation and
remodeling, rebuilding and restoration in seriously damaged properties. This requires the OHHLHC to focus its efforts
under this activity on organizations offering permanent sources of these services. It is anticipated that faith-based
organizations (FBO) and community-based organizations (CBO) including volunteer groups will be involved in locating
areas of need and individuals to receive training. After the area’s training needs are clearly identified and HUD approval
is received, qualified trainers will train the target audiences (see 1 - 3, above) throughout the flood-stricken areas,
specifically in the federally designated hurricane-disaster portions of Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas and Alabama.
Information about HUD’s Office of Faith-Based Programs is available on HUD’s website at:
http://www.hud.gov/offices/fbci/index.cfm.
HUD will perform project oversight of this task order, review draft deliverables and monitor/evaluate Contractor
performance. HUD will be unable to provide a high level of assistance in performing outreach or marketing the training,
identifying subject matter experts, or training delivery for this project.
B. Team Approach Encouraged: This project requires a significant level of effort developing and delivering training
programs within stringent timeframes. If needed, the contractor/grantee is encouraged to propose a team approach to
performing these activities to ensure completion of work within the stated schedule. The OHHLHC is aware of experts
knowledgeable in training and instructional systems design, healthy homes and construction (rehabilitation) issues, and
possessing expertise and abilities to assess existing health, construction and maintenance information. HUD encourages
their participation in this project as trainers, consultants or as team members. If the Contractor proposes a team for
performing this activity, the list of proposed team members must be submitted to OHHLHC for approval prior to the start
of work (see Appendix 1-Resources).
II. ACTIVITIES TO BE PERFORMED
A. Contract Line Item Numbers
CLIN 1: Planning Phase: Develop a Training Needs Assessment and Training Project Plan.
In the training needs assessment, the Contractor shall identify groups of intended participants in the affected geographical
areas, categorize them, and prioritize them. The Contractor shall consider the following issues: the undetermined, but
potentially large size of the audiences and their geographic distribution, high rates of employee turnover among
contractors, labor shortages and the transient nature of construction contracting associated with storm response, a reduced
amount of time that employers are willing to devote to employee training, the unique problems of urban and rural areas,
foreign language and literacy barriers to training, and the lack of an adequate capacity of trainers in all storm-damaged
areas. As part of the Training Needs Assessment, the Contractor shall develop lists of “tasks” (major job activities) and
component “sub-tasks” that members of the target audiences (trainers, workers and managers) perform. The job task lists
will form the basis of the learning objectives for the curricula and performance checklists to establish participants’
successful completion of the training. The hierarchy of the duties and tasks as listed must correlate to the lessons and
modules of the training curricula.
CLIN 1A: Develop a Training Project Plan (TPP)
Creating quality training brings together significant human and material resources. The Contractor’s proposed plan for
this training project is the TPP. (The TPP is not equivalent to the Contractor’s Work Plan.) Training requires the
identification of resources/groups to develop or implement the proposed course. Resources fall into four broad categories:
(1) facilities, (2) training recipients, (3) personnel, and (4) equipment.
The TPP shall include the following information:
Itemization of the training facilities proposed for use. Each training venue must have a safe and
suitable training environment.
An estimate of the number of training recipients derived from the needs assessment.
The number of instructors required. As discussed in paragraph 1.2 above, Contractor may propose a
team of experts with expertise in industrial hygiene, building construction practices, training, and the
potential hazards to be encountered during the rehabilitation of hurricane-damaged homes, in
particular mold and lead hazards.
A list of all course development tasks proposed including development of instructor lesson plans.
A list of all equipment required for the training, including audio-visual equipment required for the
delivery methods and locations proposed.
A marketing plan to ensure adequate enrollments with stated minimum enrollments required for
course delivery.
Projected type and number of curricular materials to be used.
Proposed delivery and testing methods (methodologies).
Proposed quality assurance (see below) and evaluation methods.
Proposed data collection, training documents to be provided to students, and Contractor’s proposed
recordkeeping/reporting methods.
Demand-Response System: In addition to the training courses scheduled in the TPP, HUD anticipates a potential
need to provide a small number of courses as local needs arise. The Contractor must be able to deliver a few
additional courses in the target area as directed by the Government Technical Representative (GTR).
Marketing Plan. The Contractor shall also develop a marketing plan to solicit participants for the courses in the
target area. Although HUD has a separate contractor performing outreach activities in this area, marketing the courses
and registering students is the sole responsibility of the training contractor. HUD has instructed its outreach
contractor to provide contact information for the training contractor in its outreach materials. The outreach contractor
will perform no other training-related activities.
CLIN 2: Development Phase: Curriculum Development
HUD requires one curriculum consisting of two modules: an awareness-level module for property
owners/managers and others (programmatic course) lasting approximately 3 training hours, with end-of-module
test/quiz. The curriculum should be as interactive as possible and include extensive use of visual aids.
Elements to be covered include levels of intervention and how to determine the level of response required in a
property, how to hire a qualified contractor or train employees to perform work safely, state certification
requirements for mold remediation and lead-based paint abatement, insurance, etc.
Contractors/workers will receive the morning Module 1 plus the afternoon Module 2, covering safe work
practices and hands-on practical. The afternoon module will include greater detail, hands-on training, and an
end-of-course test. Contractors and workers must participate in hands-on training to pass. In addition to the
biological problems covered by this course, operational highlights of the HUD-approved lead safe work
practices training shall be included in the curriculum (note that several curricula for this lead course exist, and
additional development is not required). HUD anticipates that limited consultation with the OHHLHC staff
may be required to develop course content. In addition, the contractor shall create review groups of
representatives of the intended audiences (e.g., review groups) for consultation during course development to
ensure that curricula are practically oriented and fit the language and literacy needs of the intended audiences.
A curricular outline of instruction, agenda, instructor’s lesson plan, student guide, instructor guide, and
examination package consisting of exam and answer key are required. The draft curriculum must be submitted
for HUD approval in accordance with the milestone schedule.
CLIN 2A: Train-the-trainer Training (T4) curriculum. A train-the-trainer curriculum must also be created to support
the curriculum described above. A curricular outline of instruction, agenda, instructor’s lesson plan, student guide,
instructor guide, and examination package consisting of exam and answer key are required for the train-the-trainer course.
The draft curriculum must be submitted for HUD approval in accordance with the milestone schedule. The intent of this
curriculum is to qualify existing environmental, health and safety instructors to instruct target audiences in the courses
identified in this Statement of Work. It must include technical information as well as adult education principles.
Computer-based or web-based modules are acceptable to HUD, but only as an introductory portion of the training
regarding background information, as identified below, to reduce T4 classroom time.
CLIN 2B: Healthy Homes Rehabilitation Training. The content of the Healthy Homes Rehabilitation (HHR) curricula
should include the following, among related topics:
Module 1:
Limited discussions of background information:
o The nature and prevalence of mold;
o Bacterial, viral (e.g., E. coli), allergen, and pest (e.g., insects, dead animals, etc.); infestation, and
unavailability of gas, water and other utilities, as associated with flooding (limited discussion);
o The nature and prevalence of lead-based paint and lead-based paint hazards;
o Health effects associated with exposure to storm water runoff contaminants;
o Sources and causes of flood-related mold contamination (moisture intrusion to drywall, insulation, etc.);
Removal and disposal of damaged and contaminated materials;
Personal protection for homeowners performing limited work and damage assessors.
Module 2:
Use of appropriate personal protective equipment for workers performing rehab activities in flood-damaged
properties;
Identified regulatory guidelines for professionals working in environments with mold, lead and other hazards;
Cleaning and decontamination following hazard reduction activities;
Guidance on when to seek additional expertise;
Incorporating Healthy Homes and lead-safe work practices into work specifications.
CLIN 2C: Delivery Phase: Course Delivery.
The contractor shall identify, recruit, and train trainers using the curriculum developed above. Course materials, the
content, delivery and locations for the T4 program will be cleared for acceptance by HUD according to the OHHLHC's
performance criteria for T4 training sessions. The contractor shall initially pilot test each curriculum and make necessary
improvements as approved by HUD based on the feedback obtained during the pilot testing. HUD anticipates that 4 – 6
T4 classes will be offered in the target area, with the goal of training 40 – 60 trainers. The T4 initiative will rely on
recognized guidance on lead, mold and housing-related hazards, including the list of resources developed and maintained
by public and private organizations, and presented in Appendix I, List of Selected Resources.
CLIN 3: Implement the Training
The Contractor shall use trainers who have successfully completed the Train-the-Trainer program (e.g., its staff trainers,
and/or sub-contracted trainers) to deliver post-hurricane Healthy Homes Rehabilitation (HHR) training based on
recognized guidance for addressing mold, lead and healthy homes issues. The Contractor shall handle all necessary
arrangements and sub-contract with trainers to deliver the programs. The OHHLHC is anticipating training an audience of
up to approximately 6,000 individuals. This effort would require the delivery of up to approximately 240 separate classes.
HUD estimates an average of 25 participants per class; a minimum attendance of 20 participants shall be required to
deliver a course. HUD will provide the Contractor with a total of 60 separate classes, with any additional classes in
multiples of 60 to be authorized by the GTR based on the Contractor’s ability to recruit eligible trainees, and the
Contractor’s performance in successfully training participants.
The training sessions shall be offered free to attendees. The Contractor shall obtain the OHHLHC's approval of the time
and place of all training deliveries at least three days in advance to avoid duplication and conflicts, and so as to allow the
GTR or designee to monitor the training session on an unannounced or announced basis, at the discretion of the GTR.
The Contractor evaluate all training deliveries within five days after the training and submit all such reports to the GTR on
a weekly basis.
Quality Assurance and Evaluation: The Contractor shall develop and implement a quality assurance (QA) or training
evaluation plan for the HHR training program for review and approval by the GTR.
The QA/Evaluation plan shall include plans for evaluating the effectiveness of the training in accordance with Level 3,
Ability to Demonstrate Knowledge and Skills in the Work Setting, of Donald J. Kirkpatrick's four-level model (see
Appendix I). Kirkpatrick's Level 2 includes documentation of knowledge gained through post-course evaluation forms.
HUD also requires oversight of the training through observation of a sample of training deliveries provided by every
trainer, commenting on the training deliveries and submitting the comments to the OHHLHC and trainers. The QA plan
shall also include a mechanism for evaluating the effectiveness of the courses (e.g., through structured feedback from
course participants), and for revising the course curricula, course material, and/or delivery techniques to correct
demonstrated weaknesses. More than one evaluation mechanism may be appropriate.
The Contractor shall ensure that HUD is given full recognition for the sponsorship of all training courses provided under
this contract on training materials, notices of completion, marketing materials and other records.
The Contractor shall recommend trainers to the OHHLHC for approval, by providing their qualifications, experience and
availability to conduct this training. Following HUD approval, the Contractor shall select, train and approve the trainers
that attended the T4. The Contractor shall evaluate and make recommendations to trainers and the OHHLHC regarding
the experience and qualifications of the sub-contractor trainers, and provide, as needed, technical assistance to sub-
contractors to help make the training effective, if approved by the OHHLHC.
CLIN 4: Periodic contract reporting. In addition to the subject-matter reporting noted above (e.g., deliverables and
reporting on completion of individual training sessions), the Contractor shall provide monthly summary reports to the
GTR on the activities and benefits of the services provided to date, any issues for the attention of the GTR, and monthly
financial reports on labor (specified by labor category), other direct costs, and General and Administrative costs.

THAN COST OR PRICING DATA-- MODIFICATIONS (OCT 1997)
(a) Exceptions from cost or pricing data. (1) In lieu of submitting cost or pricing data for modifications under this
contract, for price adjustments expected to exceed the threshold set forth at FAR 15.403-4 on the date of the agreement on
price or the date of the award, whichever is later, the Contractor may submit a written request for exception by submitting
the information described in the following subparagraphs. The Contracting Officer may require additional supporting
information, but only to the extent necessary to determine whether an exception should be granted, and whether the price
is fair and reasonable--
(i) Identification of the law or regulation establishing the price offered. If the price is controlled under law by periodic
rulings, reviews, or similar actions of a governmental body, attach a copy of the controlling document, unless it was
previously submitted to the contracting office.
(ii) Information on modifications of contracts or subcontracts for commercial items. (A) If--
(1) The original contract or subcontract was granted an exception from cost or pricing data requirements because
the price agreed upon was based on adequate price competition or prices set by law or regulation, or was a contract or
subcontract for the acquisition of a commercial item; and
(2) The modification (to the contract or subcontract) is not exempted based on one of these exceptions, then the
Contractor may provide information to establish that the modification would not change the contract or subcontract from a
contract or subcontract for the acquisition of a commercial item to a contract or subcontract for the acquisition of an item
other than a commercial item.
(B) For a commercial item exception, the Contractor shall provide, at a minimum, information on prices at which
the same item or similar items have previously been sold that is adequate for evaluating the reasonableness of the price of
the modification. Such information may include--
(1) For catalog items, a copy of or identification of the catalog and its date, or the appropriate pages for the
offered items, or a statement that the catalog is on file in the buying office to which the proposal is being submitted.
Provide a copy or describe current discount policies and price lists (published or unpublished), e.g., wholesale, original
equipment manufacturer, or reseller. Also explain the basis of each offered price and its relationship to the established
catalog price, including how the proposed price relates to the price of recent sales in quantities similar to the proposed
quantities.
(2) For market-priced items, the source and date or period of the market quotation or other basis for market price,
the base amount, and applicable discounts. In addition, describe the nature of the market.
(3) For items included on an active Federal Supply Service Multiple Award Schedule contract, proof that an
exception has been granted for the schedule item.
(4) The Contractor grants the Contracting Officer or an authorized representative the right to examine, at any time
before award, books, records, documents, or other directly pertinent records to verify any request for an exception under
this clause, and the reasonableness of price. For items priced using catalog or market prices, or law or regulation, access
does not extend to cost or profit information or other data relevant solely to the Contractor's determination of the prices to
be offered in the catalog or marketplace.
(b) Requirements for cost or pricing data. If the Contractor is not granted an exception from the requirement to submit
cost or pricing data, the following applies:
(1) The Contractor shall submit cost or pricing data and supporting attachments in accordance with Table 15-2 of
FAR 15.408.
(2) As soon as practicable after agreement on price, but before award (except for unpriced actions), the Contractor
shall submit a Certificate of Current Cost or Pricing Data, as prescribed by FAR 15.406-2.
