Close Date Announcement Change 9 of 42

CONTRACTOR shall provide only fully qualified and properly cleared employees for the work to be performed under this SOW.

Once approved and working at the facilities, contractor personnel shall not be removed or diverted from the site without prior notification to the designated COR. The COR will work with HR Classification to determine the level of background investigation for those prime and subcontractor employees consistent with those position sensitivity designations in the Homeland Security Presidential Directive (HSPD) 12. The level of background investigation required will depend upon the work of the position. It is estimated the type of BI’s required for the various personnel will be one of the following: National Agency Check with Inquiries (NACI), Minimum Background Investigation (MBI), or Limited Background Investigation (LBI) either a Public Trust, High Risk or a Public Trust, Moderate Risk - Minimum Background Investigation.

The level of investigation required is dependent on the duties and may require a low-risk non-sensitive National Agency Check with (Written) Inquiries, an Office of Personnel Management (OPM) Public Trust or an OPM National Security background investigation to serve on the contract.

However, any discrepancy between the information input and the records at DHS and SSA will result in an alert being issued.
