About this file

This solicitation seeks proposals for the development of a fiber laser module, coherent beam combiner, and associated thermal management system for an airborne high energy laser. The Air Force Research Laboratory aims to advance the maturity of coherent beam combining and compact thermal architectures through this effort. Offerors should design an integrated, flight-qualified fiber laser module consisting of multiple fiber amplifiers within a modular package, along with a coherent beam combiner capable of combining up to 150 kilowatts of output power. Deliverables include the fabricated devices, analysis demonstrating performance requirements are met, documentation for operation and maintenance, and data deliverables. The response deadline is not provided. This project aims to reduce the size, weight and power of key laser subsystem components to support a 150-kilowatt airborne high energy laser.

RELEASE OF NON-SENSITIVE COMPARTMENT INFORMATION (NON-SCI) INTELLIGENCE INFORMATION TO

U.S. CONTRACTORS

CONTRACT NUMBER: FA9451-21-S-0001 CALL 0009

COMPANY NAME: TBD

EXPIRATION DATE: TBD

1. Requirements for access to non-SCI intelligence:

a. Contractor will require access to Non-SCI intelligence information and must comply with directions provided by the COR. The

COR has determined that disclosure does not create an unfair competitive advantage for the contractor or a conflict of interest with the contractor’s obligation to protect the information. The COR/Program Manager will identify what Non-SCI intelligence information is required to satisfy contract requirement.

b. All intelligence material release to the contractor remains the property of the U.S. Government and may be withdrawn at any time. Contractors must maintain accountability for all classified intelligence released into their custody.

c. The contractor must not reproduce intelligence material without the written permission of the originating agency through the

Intelligence Support Office. If permission is granted, each copy shall be controlled in the same manner as the original.

d. The contractor must not destroy any intelligence material without advance approval or as specified by the Program Manager identified under Item 13 of the DD Form 254. EXCEPTION: Classified waste shall be destroyed as soon as practical in accordance with the provision of the Industrial Security Program.

e. The contractor must restrict access to only those individuals who possess the necessary security clearance and who are actually providing services under the contract with a valid need-to-know. Further dissemination to other contractors, subcontractors, other government agencies, private individuals or organizations is prohibited unless authorized in writing by the originating agency through the Program Manager identified under Item 13 of the DD form 254.

f. The contractor must ensure each employee having access to intelligence material is fully aware of the special security requirements for this material and shall maintain records in a manner that will permit the contractor to furnish, on demand, the names of individuals who have had access to this material in their custody.

g. Intelligence material must not be released to foreign nationals or immigrant aliens whether they are consultants, U.S. contractors, or employees of the contractor and regardless of the level of their security clearance, except with advance written permission from the originator. Requests for release of foreign nationals shall be initially forwarded to the contract monitor and shall include:

(1) A copy of the proposed disclosure.

(2) Full justification reflecting the benefits to U.S. interests.

(3) Name, nationality, particulars of clearance, and current access authorization of each proposed foreign national recipient.

g. Upon completion or termination of the classified contract, or sooner when the purpose of the release has been served, the contractor will return all classified intelligence (furnished or generated) to the source form which received unless retention or other disposition instructions (see AFMAN 37-139) are authorized in writing by the Program Manager identified under Item 13 of the DD

Form 254.

h. The contractor must designate an individual who is working on the contract as custodian. The designated custodian shall be responsible for receipting and accounting for all classified material. The inner wrapper of all classified material dispatched should be marked for the attention of a designated custodian and must not be opened by anyone not working directly on the contract.

i. Within 30 days after the final product is received and accepted by the procuring agency, classified intelligence materials released to or generated by the contractor, must be returned to the originating agency, through the Program Manager identified under Item 13 of the DD Form 254, unless written instructions authorizing destruction or retention are issued. Requests to retain material shall be directed to the Program Manager identified under Item 13 of the DD Form 254 for this contract in writing and clearly indicate the justification for retention and identity of the specific document to be retained.

j. Classification, regrading, or declassification markings of documentation produced by the contractor shall be consistent with that applied to the information or documentation from which the new document was prepared. If a compilation of information or a complete analysis of subject appears to require a security classification other than that of the source documentation, the contractor shall assign the tentative security classification and request instructions from the contract monitor. Pending final determination, the material shall be safeguarded as required for its assigned or proposed classification, whichever is higher, until the classification is changed or otherwise verified.

2. Intelligence material carries special markings. The following is a list of the authorized control markings of intelligence material:

a. “Dissemination and Extraction of Information Controlled by Originator (ORCON).” This marking is used, with a security classification, to enable a continuing knowledge and supervision by the originator of the use made of the information involved. This marking may be used on intelligence which clearly identifies, or would reasonably permit ready identification of an intelligence source or method which is particularly susceptible to countermeasures that would nullify or measurably reduce its effectiveness.

This marking may not be used when an item or information will reasonably be protected by the use of other markings specified herein, or by the application of the “need-to-know” principle and the safeguarding procedures of the security classification system.

b. Authorized for Release to (Name of the Country(ies)/International Organization).” The above is abbreviated “REL .”

This marking must be used when it is necessary to identify classified intelligence material the U.S. Government originator has predetermined to be releasable or has been released through established foreign disclosure channels to the indicated country(ies) or organization.

3. The following procedures govern the use of control markings.

a. Any recipient desiring to use intelligence in a manner contrary to restrictions established by the control markings set forth above shall obtain the advance permission of the originating agency through the Program Manager identified under Item 13 of the

DD Form 254. Such permission applies only to the specific purposes agreed to by the originator and does not automatically apply to all recipients. Originators shall ensure that prompt consideration is given to recipients’ requests in these regards, with particular attention to reviewing and editing, if necessary, sanitized or paraphrased versions to derive a text suitable for release subject to lesser or no control markings.

b. The control marking authorized above shall be shown on the title page, front cover, and other applicable pages of documents, incorporated in the text of electrical communications, shown on graphics, and associated (in full or abbreviated form)‚ with data stored or processed in automatic data processing systems. The control marking also shall be indicated by parenthetical use of the marking abbreviations at the beginning or end of the appropriate portions. If the control marking applies to several or all portions, the document must be marked with a statement to this effect rather than marking each portion individually.

c. The control markings shall be individually assigned at the time of preparation of intelligence products and used in conjunction with security classifications and other marking specified by E.O. 13526 and its implementing security directives, in addition to previous Executive Orders. The marking shall be carried forward to any new format in which the same information is incorporated including oral and visual presentations.
