26Q8015 -Security Agreement.docx

This is a Security Agreement for Protection of Naval Nuclear Propulsion Information required for the POPPET SNORKEL HEAD VALVE solicitation (SPMYM326Q8015) issued by Portsmouth Naval Shipyard under the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime. The agreement establishes mandatory security protocols for contractors receiving sensitive specifications and documents related to this naval nuclear propulsion component. Contractors must acknowledge that all provided materials are controlled under federal law and may only be used for preparing quotations or processing orders, with strict prohibitions against transmission outside the company or to foreign nationals. Materials must be maintained under surveillance, kept secure with restricted access, and returned in their entirety upon contract completion without copying unless expressly authorized by the Contracting Officer.

The agreement requires contractors requesting technical drawings to submit both a completed and signed Security Agreement and a signed and approved DD Form 2345, with the drawing only available to the point of contact listed on the DD Form 2345. Submission of these security documents is a mandatory precondition for receiving the necessary specifications to submit a technically acceptable quotation, as the solicitation specifies that failure to provide required descriptive literature demonstrating compliance with specifications will result in quotations being deemed technically unacceptable. The requirement is a 100% Small Business Set-Aside evaluated on Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) criteria for the procurement of one poppet snorkel head valve manufactured from titanium (SAE AMS-T-9047A, composition TI 6AL4V).
