Section 2 - Contract Clauses

Clauses by Full Text

DJAR-PGD-07-12 Maintaining Contractor Performance During a Pandemic or Other Emergency

Continuing Contract Performance During a Pandemic Influenza or other National Emergency During a Pandemic or other emergency, we understand that our contractor workforce will experience the same high levels of absenteeism as our federal employees. Although the Excusable Delays and Termination for Default clauses used in government contracts list epidemics and quarantine restrictions among the reasons to excuse delays in contract performance, we expect our contractors to make a reasonable effort to keep performance at an acceptable level during emergency periods.

The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) has provided guidance to federal managers and employees on the kinds of actions to be taken to ensure the continuity of operations during emergency periods. This guidance is also applicable to our contract workforce.

Contractors are expected to have reasonable policies in place for continuing work performance, particularly those performing mission critical services, during a pandemic influenza or other emergency situation.

The types of actions a federal contractor should reasonably take to help ensure performance are:

Encourage employees to get inoculations or follow other preventive measures as advised by the public health service.

Contractors should cross-train workers as backup for all positions performing critical services. This is particularly important for work such as guard services where telework is not an option.

• Implement telework to the greatest extent possible in the workgroup so systems are in place to support successful remote work in an emergency.

• Communicate expectations to all employees regarding their roles and responsibilities in relation to remote work in the event of a pandemic health crisis or other emergency.

Establish communication processes to notify employees of activation of this plan.

• Integrate pandemic health crisis response expectations into telework agreements.

With the employee, assess requirements for working at home (supplies and equipment needed for an extended telework period).

Security concerns should be considered in making equipment choices; agencies or contractors may wish to avoid use of employees' personal computers and provide them with PCs or laptops as appropriate.

• Determine how all employees who may telework will communicate with one another and with management to accomplish work.

Practice telework regularly to ensure effectiveness.

• Make it clear that in emergency situations, employees must perform all duties assigned by management, even if they are outside usual or customary duties.

• Identify how time and attendance will be maintained.

It is the contractor's responsibility to advise the government contracting officer if they anticipate not being able to perform and to work with the Department to fill gaps as necessary. This means direct communication with the contracting officer or in his/her absence, another responsible person in the contracting office via telephone or email messages acknowledging the contractors notification.

The incumbent contractor is responsible for assisting the Department in estimating the adverse impacts of nonperformance and to work diligently with the Department to develop a strategy for maintaining the continuity of operations.

(End of Clause)

DJAR-PGD-08-04 Security of Systems and Data, Including Personally Identifiable Information Security of Systems and Data, Including Personally Identifiable Data.

a. Systems Security The work to be performed under this contract requires the handling of data that originated within the Department, data that the contractor manages or acquires for the Department, and/or data that is acquired in order to perform the contract and concerns Department programs or personnel.

For all systems handling such data, the contractor shall comply with all security requirements applicable to Department of Justice systems, including but not limited to all Executive Branch system security requirements (e.g., requirements imposed by OMB and NIST), DOJ IT Security Standards, and DOJ Order 2640.2E. The contractor shall provide DOJ access to and information regarding the contractor's systems when requested by the Department in connection with its efforts to ensure compliance with all such security requirements, and shall otherwise cooperate with the Department in such efforts. DOJ access shall include independent validation testing of controls, system penetration testing by DOJ, FISMA data reviews, and access by the DOJ Office of the Inspector General for its reviews.

The use of contractor-owned laptops or other media storage devices to process or store data covered by this clause is prohibited until the contractor provides a letter to the contracting officer (CO) certifying the following requirements:

1. Laptops must employ encryption using a NIST Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-2 approved product;

2. The contractor must develop and implement a process to ensure that security and other applications software is kept up-to-date;

3. Mobile computing devices will utilize anti-viral software and a host-based firewall mechanism;

4. The contractor shall log all computer-readable data extracts from databases holding sensitive information and verify each extract including sensitive data has been erased within 90 days or its use is still required. All DOJ information is sensitive information unless

15M50024QA4400003 Page 7 of 35 designated as non-sensitive by the Department;

5. Contractor-owned removable media, such as removable hard drives, flash drives, CDs, and floppy disks, containing DOJ data, shall not be removed from DOJ facilities unless encrypted using a NIST FEPS 140-2 approved product;

6. When no longer needed, all removable media and laptop hard drives shall be processed (sanitized, degaussed, or destroyed) in accordance with security requirements applicable to DOJ;

7. Contracting firms shall keep an accurate inventory of devices used on DOJ contracts;

8. Rules of behavior must be signed by users. These rules shall address at a minimum: authorized and official use; prohibition against unauthorized users; and protection of sensitive data and personally identifiable information;

9. All DOJ data will be removed from contractor-owned laptops upon termination of contractor work. This removal must be accomplished in accordance with DOJ IT Security Standard requirements. Certification of data removal will be performed by the contractor's project manager and a letter confirming certification will be delivered to the CO within 15 days of termination of contractor work;

b. Data Security By acceptance of, or performance on, this contract, the contractor agrees that with respect to the data identified in paragraph a, in the event of any actual or suspected breach of such data (i.e., loss of control, compromise, unauthorized disclosure, access for an unauthorized purpose, or other unauthorized access, whether physical or electronic), the contractor will immediately (and in no event later than within one hour of discovery) report the breach to the DOJ CO and the contracting officer's technical representative (COTR).

If the data breach occurs outside of regular business hours and/or neither the CO nor the COTR can be reached, the contractor shall call the DOJ Computer Emergency Readiness Team (DOJCERT) at 1-866-US4-CERT (1-866-874-2378) within one hour of discovery of the breach. The contractor shall also notify the CO as soon as possible during regular business hours.

c. Personally Identifiable Information Notification Requirement The contractor further certifies that it has a security policy in place that contains procedures to promptly notify any individual whose personally identifiable information (as defined by OMB) was, or is reasonably believed to have been, breached. Any notification shall be coordinated with the Department, and shall not proceed until the Department has made a determination that notification would not impede a law enforcement investigation or jeopardize national security. The method and content of any notification by the contractor shall be coordinated with, and be subject to the approval of, the Department. The contractor assumes full responsibility for taking corrective action consistent with the Department's Data Breach Notification Procedures, which may include offering credit monitoring when appropriate.

d. Pass-through of Security Requirements to Subcontractors The requirements set forth in Paragraphs a through c above, apply to all subcontractors who perform work in connection with this contract. For each subcontractor, the contractor must certify that it has required the subcontractor to adhere to all such requirements.

Any breach by a subcontractor of any of the provisions set forth in this clause will be attributed to the contractor.

B. Information Resellers or Data Brokers For contracts where the Department obtains PII from a contractor (such as an information reseller or data broker) but the contractor does not handle the data described in Section A of this guidance document, the following clause must be used:

Information Resellers or Data Brokers Under this contract, the Department obtains personally identifiable information about individuals from the contractor. The contractor hereby certifies that it has a security policy in place which contains procedures to promptly notify any individual whose personally identifiable information (as defined by OMB) was, or is reasonably believed to have been, lost or acquired by an unauthorized person while the data is under the control of the contractor. In any case in which the data that was lost or improperly acquired reflects or consists of data that originated with the Department, or reflects sensitive law enforcement or national security interest in the data, the contractor shall notify the Department contracting officer so that the Department may determine whether notification would impede a law enforcement investigation or jeopardize national security. In such cases, the contractor shall not notify the individuals until it receives further instruction from the Department.

USMS-0001 Release of Residual Funds ($100 or Less)

The contractor is advised when submitting the final invoice under this contract to submit an information copy of the invoice to the Contracting Officer. The invoice must be marked “Information Copy – Final Invoice.” If residual funds on the contract total $100 or less, the government will automatically de-obligate the residual funds without further communication with the vendor. Upon receipt and payment of the final invoice, it is understood and agreed that all outstanding obligations incurred on the above referenced contract have been satisfied. Therefore, it is further understood and agreed that the government shall not be liable for the payment of any future invoices that may be submitted under the above referenced contract. (Applies to all contracts)

USMS-0002 Release of Residual Funds (Greater Than $100)

If funds greater than $100 remain on this contract after the final invoice, the Government will issue a bilateral modification to authorize release of those funds. The contractor’s signature on the modification will constitute understanding and agreement that all outstanding obligations incurred on this contract have been satisfied. The Government shall not be held liable for the payment of any further invoices submitted under this contract. The contractor will have up to 30 calendar days after issuance of the modification to sign

15M50024QA4400003 Page 8 of 35 and return it. Further, failure to sign and return the modification within the stated time period shall be considered acceptance of the government’s intent to deobligate the residual funds; and releases the Government from any future liability stemming from or related to this contract. (Applies to all contracts.)

USMS-0003 Acceleration of Payments to Small Businesses

In order for the United States Marshals Service Payment Office to comply with OMB Memorandum M-11-32, all invoices from any small business must include the following statement of self-certification of its small business status:

"I hereby certify that (Company Name) is a small business concern as defined in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) subpart 2.101."

This requirement for certification is in addition to any other invoicing instructions for this contract. Failure to include this certification on invoices may result in delayed payment.

USMS-0005 DOJ Procurement Guidance Document; Restrictions and Prohibition on Use of FY 2015 Funds (FAR 52.209-5 DEVIATION 15-02 (May 11, 2015)
