SECURITY AND SAFETY

FAR Subpart 4.13, Personal Identification Verification of Contractor Personnel, establishes the policy and use requirements for FAR Clause 52.204.9, Personal Identification Verification of Contractor Personnel, which is hereby incorporated into this order by reference. It requires Contractor compliance with Homeland Security Presidential Directive- 12 (HSPD-12), Office of Management and Budget (OMB) guidance M-05-24, and Federal Information Processing Standards Publication (FIPS PUB) Number 201.

USDA policy implementing referred to in paragraph (a) of the clause is at USDA Department Manual 4620-002, USDA Departmental Regulation 4620-002. This policy applies to Contractor employees who require routine access to federally controlled facilities and information systems. All such Contractor employees must have been successfully identity proofed (FBI fingerprint check) and have a successfully adjudicated National Agency Check with (Written) Inquiries (NACI) or Office of Personnel Management (OPM)/National Security (NS) community background investigation to serve on the contract. USDA agencies may grant access to USDA information systems after successful adjudication of the FBI fingerprint check. Completion and successful adjudication of the final NACI results or OPM/NS BI are still required to continue work under this contract. If the fingerprint or background investigation result is unsatisfactory the Contractor employee shall be removed from the contract immediately and replaced immediately. Unless a Contractor employee already has successfully completed these requirements and the investigation is current, the employee will be required to complete an online version of the SF-85, Questionnaire for Nonsensitive Position, two FD-258, Fingerprint Charts (can be provided by the NRCS if the law enforcement agency does not have them), and other required forms. Contractor employees’ fingerprints shall be taken to a Federal, State, municipal, or local law enforcement agency.

The Contractor is responsible for any cost of obtaining the fingerprints. The Government is responsible for the cost of the FBI finger print check and background investigation. The NRCS does not have any control over the timeliness of the background check or that it will be completed within the performance period of this contract, but it is estimated to be completed approximately 30 calendar days once the Contractor provides all of the required documentation and the NRCS submits it to the Office of Personnel Management (OPM).

Fingerprint check results are estimated to be received within 10 calendar days once the Contractor provides all the required documentation and the NRCS submits it to the OPM.

Upon award of the contract, and once the NRCS has provided the Contractor with the required documentation and instructions, the Contractor must complete and submit the required documentation promptly.

VENDOR REQUIREMENTS

A. Vendor must be a licensed and insured contractor in the State of California and follow all regulations and guidelines when fulfilling a U.S. Government contract.

B. Vendor must be currently registered in the SAM, the System for Award Management (https://www.sam.gov/ ) C. Vendor must be willing to enroll with IPP, the Invoice Processing Platform
