7.3.4 If any special programming software or programming software interface devices such as hardware "keys", dongles or "PIC" modules, are required to access software, these programs and devices shall be provided to LEAD along with the necessary registration information. If custom application software was written and provided, a copy of the required compiler and compiler license shall also be provided. At acceptance, all items shall become property of the Government.
Software and hardware purchased for this project shall be registered to Commander, Letterkenny Army Depot, Chambersburg, PA 17201.
7.4 System Environment Specifications:
7.4.1 All supplied software must be capable of operating in a multi-user environment and data which contains permissions information shall be hidden from view and inaccessible to those with less than administrator level access. Shared accounts shall not be used, and users shall only be authorized the minimum security rights to operate the application software. Users will not have access to system or software configuration items (e.g., Control Panel, software and hardware installation). Under no circumstances will the intended end user log in using the Administrator or Root account for routine operation of the equipment. The use of these accounts will be restricted to only administrative activities which will be carried out by LEAD Information Technology personnel. All software products shall employ a minimum of three permission based levels of access.
7.4.1.1 Administrator - Full control at root level, restricted to LEAD IT personnel and when required, the Contractor.
7.4.1.2 Maintenance - Mid-level control required to perform maintenance and alter control parameters as needed.
7.4.1.3 Operator - Minimum control necessary to perform the routine operation of software. The Operator shall not be able to alter the programming of software, make changes to executable files, or modify control parameters.
7.4.2 Application Interoperability: If an application will interfere with the operation of the industrial system, E.g., (McAfee Anti-Virus), the Contractor shall provide a written statement to the LEAD IT Directorate explaining the technical restrictions placed upon them.
7.4.3 Auditing: If applicable, the contractor shall enable audit files and data logs for access by LEAD Cybersecurity personnel to audit access and actions on the equipment.
7.4.4 User Acceptance Testing (UAT): LEAD Cyber Security Personnel will have the ability to conduct validation testing with approved security tools prior to equipment being introduced to the shop floor. This testing will also satisfy any UAT requirements. A UAT Plan will be furnished prior to testing and all equipment documentation will be made available for review during the test. If discrepancies are discovered the contractor shall remediate identified issues prior to Government acceptance.
7.5 Documentation Requirements:
7.5.1 A complete set of instruction manuals containing all of the information necessary to operate, maintain, and reinstall all software and hardware contained within the system shall be provided by the Contractor.

The Contractor shall also provide electrical wiring diagrams for all installed control systems to this LEAD Industrial Automation group.
7.5.4 Certificate of Networthiness: Certificate of Networthiness (CoN) certification ensures Automated Information Systems (AIS) utilizing the Army Network are developed in compliance with the Clinger Cohen Act and are secure, supportable, sustainable, and compatible with the Army Enterprise Infrastructure (AEI) (as defined in AR 25-1). All new AIS capabilities and all capability modifications and upgrades must be assessed to validate their Networthiness (network security, network impact, compatibility with the infrastructure, infrastructure requirements, spectrum support, security policy compliance, Joint Technical Architecture –Army (JTA-A) standards compliance, communications and information manpower, training, logistics support, schedule, and funding). If software is installed within the system, the Contractor shall work with LEAD Directorate of Information Management (DOIM) personnel to check for CoN availability and when not available, ensure a CoN is requested and all documentation is submitted.
