DISCUSSION The United States Department of Homeland Security, Office of Grants and Training has developed the Urban Areas Security Initiative (UASI) funding program. This initiative was designed to enhance the domestic preparedness of urban areas by ensuring that all emergency first responders have adequate and appropriate training, exercises and equipment to prevent, respond to, and recover from acts of terrorism. Santa Ana has been designated as an Urban Area Core City for the ninth year. The City of Santa Ana has fiscal responsibility for the FY11 UASI Grant for the Anaheim/Santa Ana Urban Area (ASAUA) which encompasses 34 jurisdictions in Orange County. The ASAUA Urban Area Working Group (UAWG) has identified regional active shooter training program as a priority for public safety agencies in Orange County. The tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) adopted by the Orange County regional UASI Active Shooter Training Program are designed to prepare public safety first responders to react to an active shooter event - both homegrown/domestic threats and terrorism based events. These TTPs are based on SWAT, HRT, and military Special Operations tactics that have been modified for public safety personnel working in the Field Operations environment. Prior to being selected as the tactical model to be taught these TTPs were evaluated and selected by experienced public safety personnel. This tactical model was then presented to the UAWG and accepted as the UASI regional active shooter training model. The ASAUA seeks to continue its active shooter training program by entering into an agreement with the Government Training Institute, Inc. to provide active shooter training in compliance with the TTPs. 25C-1 Agreement for Active Shooter Training Program May 6, 2013 Page 2 This comprehensive training program will better equip public safety personnel with the skills they need to respond to an active shooter event.

ATTEST: MARIA HUIZAR Clerk of the Council APPROVED AS TO FORM: SONIA R. CARVALHO City Attorney By: LAURA SHEEDY Assistant City Attorney RECOMMENDED FOR APPROVAL: CARLOS ROJAS Acting Chief of Police CITY OF SANTA ANA, a charter city and municipal corporation KEVIN O'ROURKE Interim City Manager GOVERNMENT TRAINING INSTITUTE CHADD HARBAUGH President 25C-11 EXHIBIT A: RFP 13-005 SECTION I SCOPE OF WORK 1.0 INTRODUCTION The purpose of this Request for Proposal is to identify a suitable vendor to support the Active Shooter Training Program for the Anaheim / Santa Ana Urban Area (ASAUA). This vendor will be responsible for working with the stakeholders in the Urban Area to train public safety personnel on how to respond to an active shooter event and train-the-trainer on how to deliver the training with the input and coordination of the Urban Area's stakeholders. The selected vendor shall provide an active shooter training curriculum that is DHS approved. 1.2 BACKGROUND INFORMATION The support requested for this active shooter training program will be paid in part or in full with funding from the United States Department of Homeland Security's Urban Areas Security Initiative (UASI) grant. Funding from this grant is applied to homeland security related training, exercises, equipment, and projects in the Anaheim / Santa Ana Urban Area (ASAUA). The ASAUA is comprised of the 34 cities and two universities in Orange County, California. The Santa Ana and Anaheim Police Departments alternate fiscal responsibility for the grant. The ASAUA Urban Area Working Group (UAWG) has identified regional active shooter training program as a priority for public safety agencies in Orange County. The tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) adopted by the Orange County regional UASI Active Shooter Training Program are designed to prepare public safety first responders to react to an active shooter event - both homegrown/domestic threats and terrorism based events. These TTPs are based on SWAT, HRT, and military Special Operations tactics that have been modified for public safety personnel working in the Field Operations environment. Prior to being selected as the tactical model to be taught these TTPs were evaluated and selected by public safety personnel with decades of public safety experience in the field, as SWAT operators, and as Army Special Forces operators. Most importantly these evaluators have years of practical experience teaching and utilizing these tactics in actual lethal threat environments. This tactical model was then presented to the UAWG and accepted as the UASI regional active shooter training model. The ASAUA seeks to continue its active shooter training program. The training program consists of three parts. They are as follows: 1. Three-day comprehensive active shooter training course is designed to train line level public safety personnel on the tactics needed to respond to an event. There will be a combination of lecture to review the tactics and exercises to demonstrate practical applications of tactics. There will be up to 4 courses delivered, 30 students per class, before December 31, 2013. At a minimum, the Proposer shall provide one instructor for every 10 students. 2. One-day refresher course is a condensed version of the three-day training course. This is aimed at refreshing the skills of public safety personnel who have taken the three-day course in the past. There will be up to 27 courses delivered, 30 students per class, before December 31, 2013. At a minimum, the Proposer shall provide one instructor for every 10 students. 25C-12 3. The train-the-trainer course is aimed at building a strong cadre of local instructors who can provide active shooter training at their local jurisdiction or work collaboratively with other trainers to put on regional training for law enforcement personnel in Orange County. This course can be incorporated into the three-day training and one-day training courses in order for trainers to get hands on experience in teaching the tactical model and facilitate training from start to finish. This course will train up to 20public safety personnel before December 31, 2013. This comprehensive training program will better equip public safety personnel with the skills they need to respond to an active shooter event. In addition, the program will train local instructors in order to build a training cadre who can continue training additional personnel and maintain perishable skills. 1.3 TACTICAL MODEL The Proposer shall provide an approved DHS curriculum that follows this tactical model. Through this proven tactical model public safety personnel will be able to take immediate action to protect victims and bystanders while quickly locating, isolating, and eliminating the active shooter threat(s). This tactical model utilizes the following TTPs: • Double or single stack formations - dependent on hallway space/configuration. • Cross coverage - maximize target acquisition and minimize threat angles. • Blocking - ensure safe entry into rooms or past thresholds by eliminating opposing threat angles. • Room entries - depth and width, limited depth and width, and strong wall entry techniques. • Open area movement - crossing potential threat areas when advancing on a building or moving between buildings. • Rear security and exiting buildings - survival in the 360 degree threat environment. This training must be predominantly hands on - preparing students to take action with limited assets in an active shooter environment; students must be able to operate in one, two, three, and four officer elements. The training must create a high intensity, high stress realistic atmosphere where public safety personnel must respond to varying situations with varying levels of support (number of public safety personnel immediately available and patrol based weapons systems). The students must be able to respond to both known shooter locations as well as determine an unknown shooter's location, and effectively handle single shooter and multiple shooter environments. For the three-day training the Proposer shall provide a half day of live fire range training. This training will include: • Instruction in the Principles and Fundamentals of pistol marksmanship • Instructor explained and demonstrated drills for the following: o Handgun drills starting with static shooting for accuracy to drills ultimately culminating in shooting while moving in width and depth. o Carbine drills starting with static accuracy, use of iron sights and reflex sights, culminating with shooting while moving in width and depth. • All drills will be designed to support techniques taught during the entry portion of the course. 25C-13 The Proposer shall work with local instructors and subject matter experts to update and revise the tactical model to meet the needs of the region. The Proposer shall be expected to expand on the above-noted components where appropriate, and provide suggestions which might lead to efficiencies and enhance the results or usefulness of the tactical model. The final tactical model will be approved by local instructors and subject matter experts the ASAUA selects as reviewers. 1.4 TRAINING MODEL The Proposer's training model shall follow a "crawl, walk, run" training philosophy where limited instruction is initially given to the students in the classroom environment utilizing a PowerPoint presentation and discussion; no more than 2 hours. This presentation will explain the TTP's utilized in the active shooter tactical model. The classroom presentation will be followed by tape drills designed to demonstrate, reinforce, and evaluate the student understanding of the TTP's. Following the tape drills the students will conduct dry runs through a structure, further developing and refining their understanding of the TTP's. Student training will transition to scenario based training, involving exercises of increasing tactical complexity. Students will start with simple single room clearing exercises involving Simunitions and paper targets (both threat and non-threat targets); these scenarios will emphasize depth and width room entry tactics - squeezing-up, clearing hard corners, moving to points of domination, and index/re-index of the room. As student understanding of the TTP's evolves the scenarios will incorporate follow on rooms, and hallway movements - double/single stack, cross coverage, and blocking will be emphasized. When appropriate force-on-force use of Simunitions will be incorporated into the scenarios; threat and non-threat role-players will be utilized in these scenarios. 1.5 PROPOSER SUPPLIED EQUIPMENT The Proposer shall supply equipment to support the training program.
