RFI Questions and Answers

RFI-001 Citizenship Requirements: Section 015930 – Security Requirements (page 2, Part 1.2.B.2.a.) says “Persons employed within boundaries of the property or restricted access areas therein, and persons permitted to enter such property and areas shall be citizens of the United States of America (emphasis added).” Also, Section V Scope of Work – Security Requirements says “Construction and design of SCIFs shall be performed by U.S. companies using U.S. persons (an individual who has been lawfully admitted for permanent residence as defined in 8 U.S.C. 1101(a)(2) or who is a protected individual as defined by U.S.C.1324b(a) (3)). The Approving Official (AO) shall ensure mitigations to be implemented are documented in the CSP when using non- U.S. citizens. The CSP does not document mitigations that allow for the hiring of non- U.S. citizens. Therefore, this contract is limited to work performance by U.S. citizens only (emphasis added).” However, further on, Section V Scope of Work – Security Requirements states “Any employee assigned to support the Department shall comply with Personal Identity Verification One and Two (PIV-1, PIV-2) requirements as described in Homeland Security Presidential Directive 12 (HSPD-12), “Policy for a Common Identification Standard for Federal Employees and Contractors,” and “Federal Information Processing Standard 201, Personal Identity Verification Standards for Federal Employees and Contractors,” dated August 2013. T2/Moderate Risk contract employees must be a U.S. Citizen or Lawful Permanent Resident Alien with at least three or more years of U.S. residency from the legal entry date in the U.S.” (emphasis added). QUESTION: Is this project US Citizen only?

RESPONSE - Citizenship requirement for upcoming renovation project at FFB, 2nd and 3rd floors is U.S. Citizens only.

RFI-002 We would like to formally request a thirty (30) day extension added to the Proposal Due Date that is currently scheduled for August 8, 2019 at 2:00
