Page 1 of Page 1 of Community Based Outpatient Clinic, CCTV Systems

STATEMENT OF WORK

B.1 GENERAL INFORMATION

Title of Project: Installation of a new CCTV System for three (3) of the Community Based Outpatient Clinics residing under the authority of the VA Central Ohio Healthcare System.

Scope of Work: The Contractor shall provide all necessary travel, labor, equipment, configuration and training required to install the CCTV system and corresponding software. The basic requirements of this system are outlined below.

Location of services provided: All work shall be performed at the Newark, Marion, and Zanesville VA Community Based Outpatient Clinics.

Period of Performance: 90 Days from the date of award

B.1.1 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

The following Statement of Work (SOW) provides the requirements and specifications for the purchase and installation of CCTV camera systems compatible with the S2 NetVR® system currently in place at the VA Central Ohio Healthcare System.

The lessor, and all security consultants, electricians, contractors, and subcontractors (hereafter referred to as "the contractor") must read and fully understand this SOW.

All requirements contained in this SOW must be met and must meet minimum industry standards. Product substitutions are not permitted without the express written approval of the Contracting Officer or the designated Contracting Officer Representative. The contractor must document all proposed changes in writing and receive approval from the Contracting Officer (CO) or the designated Contracting Officer Representative (COR) prior to implementation. If a substitution is made without written permission, the contractor may have to replace the parts in question without delay and at no cost to the government. Additional fees or expenses for items not specifically addressed by the SOW or the Contracting Officer will not be approved.

The contractor will take guidance only from the Contracting Officer or the designated Contracting Officer Representative and not from any other individual. The Contracting Officer Representative will be designated in writing and introduced to the contractor prior to the start of the project.

For every task, the contractor shall identify in writing all necessary subtasks (if any), associated costs by task, and together with associated submilestone dates. The contractor's subtask structure shall be reflected in the technical proposal and detailed work plan.

Upon the successful award of contract, but prior to beginning any work, a kick-off meeting will be scheduled with the contractor, CO, COR and project staff to discuss the design and components being considered. It is required that the contractor meet with the Contracting Officer Representative on site to walk the space and resolve any questions prior to beginning work.

During the kick-off meeting the contractor, in conjunction with the Contracting Officer Representative will prepare a schedule for the completion of the installation of the security system. Any variance from the schedule, once set, must be communicated immediately to the Contracting Officer Representative.

The contractor will install the system in accordance with the manufacturer's written instructions in addition to all codes and standards set forth by, but not limited to, the National Electrical Code, the National Building Code, Underwriters Laboratories, and the local Authority Having Jurisdiction.

The contractor will furnish and install all equipment, cables, wires, circuits, connectors, wall or ceiling mounting brackets, labor, supervision and all other equipment necessary for the installation of the CCTV system contained within this SOW. All work pertaining to the installation of the CCTV equipment as covered by the SOW is the responsibility of the contractor.

Wires are not to be exposed or visible. The contractor will conceal all wires within the office by "fishing" wire in the walls, ceilings, and doorframes to ensure tamper resistance. No mechanical pulling of wires is allowed. Contractor shall install system using the existing conduit.

It may be necessary to place wire in electrical metallic tubing (EMT) in some locations in which walls cannot be fished. No wire mold will be used. Every attempt to fish wires in walls will be made before using EMT. The size of the EMT will be 50% larger than needed to permit additional wire pulls.

The contractor must securely fasten all wires in the ceiling to overhead wire supports in order to prevent damage that may occur from existing or future wire runs in the ceiling. The contractor shall not use the existing data cabling "J" hooks to support security systems wiring or cables. Contractors are to install their own cable supporting hardware. Any damage to existing cables caused by mounting or pulling of any wires will be the responsibility of the contractor to repair at no cost to the government.

The contractor shall not splice or utilize T-taps, etc., except inside of the control panel, spare enclosure, cabinets, or auxiliary power supply.

The contractor must label each wire, cable, etc. as it enters its termination location on the head end for long term troubleshooting purposes. If wire numbers are used, a true wire legend must remain on site and with Veteran Affairs Engineering department with a full description of each device, its destination point, and termination point. Periodic labels must be placed on the wire to indicate type of wire; for example, "CCTV".

All other items, including detectors, sensors, junction boxes, control panels, transformers, phone jacks, etc. must be labeled to show the device and/or zone number on the front cover of the specific device. All necessary patching, painting, or repairs as a result of this installation must be performed by the contractor at no cost to the government.

After installation of the CCTV system, the contractor will inspect and test the system with the COR.

The contractor will provide operator training to the employees selected by the Contracting Officer Representative and will distribute associated User Guides to the local user.

The contractor is responsible for the installed equipment for one year (including all parts, labor, wiring, service travel hours, parking, etc.) beginning from the point of acceptance by the Contracting Officer Representative. No additional costs for service due to system or component malfunction during the one-year warranty period will be paid by the government.

All equipment remains the property of the United States government. The contractor retains no liens, titles, or ownership against any equipment, installed or uninstalled. All surplus equipment should be shipped to the COR via FedEx or UPS at the time of final inspection.

The contractor shall provide the COR with a list of contractor employees expected to enter the building. While on VA premises, all contractor personnel shall comply with the rules, regulations, and procedures governing the conduct of personnel and the operation of the facility.

It is the responsibility of the contractor’s personnel to park in the appropriate designated parking areas.

B.1.2 SPECIFIC MANDATORY TASKS AND ASSOCIATED DELIVERABLES

The CCTV system shall be used primarily for review of incidents utilizing the S2 NetVR remote viewing software with the ability to live stream all cameras at the designated location if desired. The memory for the CCTV system will span a >90-day period and allowing the operator the freedom to choose specific timeframes and cameras from the installed system within the >90-day period to review.

The contractor shall set up and configure the CCTV system to ensure proper performance including, but not limited to, frame rate, image quality, refresh rate and bandwidth utilization. All settings must me in compliance with all of VA IT rules and regulations.

2. The Contracting Officer will be the sole authorized official to release verbally or in writing, any data, the draft deliverables, the final deliverables, or any other written or printed materials pertaining to this task order. No information shall be released by the contractor. Any request for information relating to this task order presented to the contractor shall be submitted to the Contracting Officer for response.

B.1.9 SITE VISIT

The site visit will be scheduled

B.2 ACCESS TO VA INFORMATION AND VA INFORMATION SYSTEMS

a. A contractor / subcontractor shall request logical (technical) or physical access to VA information and VA information systems for their employees, subcontractors, and affiliates only to the extent necessary to perform the services specified in the contract, agreement, or task order.

b. All contractors, subcontractors, and third-party servicers and associates working with VA information are subject to the same investigative requirements as those of VA appointees or employees who have access to the same types of information. The level and process of background security investigations for contractors must be in accordance with VA Directive and Handbook 0710, Personnel Suitability and Security Program. The Office for Operations, Security, and Preparedness is responsible for these policies and procedures.

c. Contract personnel who require access to national security programs must have a valid security clearance. National Industrial Security Program (NISP) was established by Executive Order 12829 to ensure that cleared U.S. defense industry contract personnel safeguard the classified information in their possession while performing work on contracts, programs, bids, or research and development efforts. The Department of Veterans Affairs does not have a Memorandum of Agreement with Defense Security Service (DSS). Verification of a Security Clearance must be processed through the Special Security Officer located in the Planning and National Security Service within the Office of Operations, Security, and Preparedness.

d. Custom software development and outsourced operations must be located in the U.S. to the maximum extent practical. If such services are proposed to be performed abroad and are not disallowed by other VA policy or mandates, the contractor/subcontractor must state where all non-U.S. services are provided and detail a security plan, deemed to be acceptable by VA, specifically to address mitigation of the resulting problems of communication, control, data protection, and so forth. Location within the U.S. may be an evaluation factor.

e. The contractor or subcontractor must notify the Contracting Officer immediately when an employee working on a VA system or with access to VA information is reassigned or leaves the contractor or subcontractor’s employ. The Contracting Officer must also be notified immediately by the contractor or subcontractor prior to an unfriendly termination.

B.2.1 VA INFORMATION CUSTODIAL LANGUAGE

a. Information made available to the contractor or subcontractor by VA for the performance or administration of this contract or information developed by the contractor/subcontractor in performance or administration of the contract shall be used only for those purposes and shall not be used in any other way without the prior written agreement of the VA. This clause expressly limits the contractor/subcontractor's rights to use data as described in Rights in Data

- General, FAR 52.227-14(d) (1).

behalf of VA by a contractor/subcontractor must be done in accordance with National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) requirements as outlined in VA Directive 6300, Records and Information Management and its Handbook 6300.1 Records Management Procedures, applicable VA Records Control Schedules, and VA Handbook 6500.1, Electronic Media Sanitization. Self-certification by the contractor that the data destruction requirements above have been met must be sent to the VA Contracting Officer within 30 days of termination of the contract.

d. d. The contractor/subcontractor must receive, gather, store, back up, maintain, use, disclose and dispose of VA information only in compliance with the terms of the contract and applicable Federal and VA information confidentiality and security laws, regulations and policies. If Federal or VA information confidentiality and security laws, regulations and policies become applicable to the VA information or information systems after execution of the contract, or if NIST issues or updates applicable FIPS or Special Publications (SP) after Execution of this contract, the parties agree to negotiate in good faith to implement the information confidentiality and security laws, regulations and policies in this contract.

e. The contractor/subcontractor shall not make copies of VA information except as authorized and necessary to perform the terms of the agreement or to preserve electronic information stored on contractor/subcontractor electronic storage media for restoration in case any electronic equipment or data used by the contractor/subcontractor needs to be restored to an operating state. If copies are made for restoration purposes, after the restoration is complete, the copies must be appropriately destroyed.

f. If VA determines that the contractor has violated any of the information confidentiality, privacy, and security provisions of the contract, it shall be sufficient grounds for VA to withhold payment to the contractor or third party or terminate the contract for default or terminate for cause under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) part 12.

g. If a VHA contract is terminated for cause, the associated BAA must also be terminated and appropriate actions taken in accordance with VHA Handbook 1600.01, Business Associate Agreements. Absent an agreement to use or disclose protected health information, there is no business associate relationship.

j. Except for uses and disclosures of VA information authorized by this contract for performance of the contract, the contractor/subcontractor may use and disclose VA information only in two other situations: (i) in response to a qualifying order of a court of competent jurisdiction, or (ii) with VA’s prior written approval. The contractor/subcontractor must refer all requests for, demands for production of, or inquiries about, VA information and information systems to the VA contracting officer for response.

k. Notwithstanding the provision above, the contractor/subcontractor shall not release VA records protected by Title 38 U.S.C. 5705, confidentiality of medical quality assurance records and/or Title 38 U.S.C. 7332, confidentiality of certain health records pertaining to drug addiction, sickle cell anemia, alcoholism or alcohol abuse, or infection with human immunodeficiency virus. If the contractor/subcontractor is in receipt of a court order or other requests for the above-mentioned information, that contractor/subcontractor shall immediately refer such court orders or other requests to the VA contracting officer for response.

l. For service that involves the storage, generating, transmitting, or exchanging of VA sensitive information but does not require C&A or an MOU-ISA for system interconnection, the contractor/subcontractor must complete a Contractor Security Control Assessment (CSCA) on a yearly basis and provide it to the COTR.

B.2.2 INFORMATION SYSTEM DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT

a. Information systems that are designed or developed for or on behalf of VA at non-VA facilities shall comply with all VA directives developed in accordance with FISMA, HIPAA, NIST, and related VA security and privacy control requirements for Federal information systems.

Part 164, Subpart C, information and system security categorization level designations in accordance with FIPS 199 and FIPS 200 with implementation of all baseline security controls commensurate with the FIPS 199 system security categorization (reference Appendix D of VA Handbook 6500, VA Information Security Program). During the development cycle a Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) must be completed, provided to the COTR, and approved by the VA Privacy Service in accordance with Directive 6507, VA Privacy Impact Assessment.

b. The contractor/subcontractor shall certify to the COTR that applications are fully functional and operate correctly as intended on systems using the VA Federal Desktop Core Configuration (FDCC), and the common security configuration guidelines provided by NIST or the VA. This includes Internet Explorer 7 configured to operate on Windows XP and Vista (in Protected Mode on Vista) and future versions, as required.

c. The standard installation, operation, maintenance, updating, and patching of software shall not alter the configuration settings from the VA approved and FDCC configuration. Information technology staff must also use the Windows Installer Service for installation to the default “program files” directory and silently install and uninstall.

d. Applications designed for normal end users shall run in the standard user context without elevated system administration privileges.

e. The security controls must be designed, developed, approved by VA, and implemented in accordance with the provisions of VA security system development life cycle as outlined in NIST Special Publication 800-37, Guide for Applying the Risk Management Framework to Federal Information Systems, VA Handbook 6500, Information Security Program and VA Handbook 6500.5, Incorporating Security and Privacy in System Development Lifecycle.

f. The contractor/subcontractor is required to design, develop, or operate a System of Records Notice (SOR) on individuals to accomplish an agency function subject to the Privacy Act of 1974, (as amended), Public Law 93-579, December 31, 1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a) and applicable agency regulations. Violation of the Privacy Act may involve the imposition of criminal and civil penalties.

g. The contractor/subcontractor agrees to: (1) Comply with the Privacy Act of 1974 (the Act) and the agency rules and regulations issued under the Act in the design, development, or operation of any system of records on individuals to accomplish an agency function when the contract specifically identifies:

(a) The Systems of Records (SOR); and (b) The design, development, or operation work that the contractor/subcontractor is to perform; (2) Include the Privacy Act notification contained in this contract in every solicitation and resulting subcontract and in every subcontract awarded without a solicitation, when the work statement in the proposed subcontract requires the redesign, development, or operation of a SOR on individuals that is subject to the Privacy Act; and (3) Include this Privacy Act clause, including this subparagraph (3), in all subcontracts awarded under this contract which requires the design, development, or operation of such a SOR.

h. In the event of violations of the Act, a civil action may be brought against the agency involved when the violation concerns the design, development, or operation of a SOR on individuals to accomplish an agency function, and criminal penalties may be imposed upon the officers or employees of the agency when the violation concerns the operation of a SOR on individuals to accomplish an agency function. For purposes of the Act, when the contract is for the operation of a SOR on individuals to accomplish an agency function, the contractor / subcontractor is considered to be an employee of the agency.

(1) “Operation of a System of Records” means performance of any of the activities associated with maintaining the SOR, including the collection, use, maintenance, and dissemination of records. (2) “Record” means any item, collection, or grouping of information about an individual that is maintained by an agency, including, but not limited to, education, financial transactions, Medical history, and criminal or employment history and contains the person’s name, or identifying number, symbol, or any other identifying particular assigned to the individual, such as a fingerprint or voiceprint, or a photograph.

(3) “System of Records” means a group of any records under the control of any agency from which information is retrieved by the name of the individual or by some identifying number, symbol, or other identifying particular assigned to the individual.

i. The vendor shall ensure the security of all procured or developed systems and technologies, including their subcomponents (hereinafter referred to as “Systems”), throughout the life of this contract and any extension, warranty, or maintenance periods. This includes, but is not limited to workarounds, patches, hotfixes, upgrades, and any physical components (hereafter referred to as Security Fixes) which may be necessary to fix all security vulnerabilities published or known to the vendor anywhere in the Systems, including Operating Systems and firmware. The vendor shall ensure that Security Fixes shall not negatively impact the Systems.

j. The vendor shall notify VA within 24 hours of the discovery or disclosure of successful exploits of the vulnerability which can compromise the security of the Systems (including the confidentiality or integrity of its data and operations, or the availability of the system). Such issues shall be remediated as quickly as is practical, but in no event longer than __2_ days.

k. When the Security Fixes involve installing third party patches (such as Microsoft OS patches or Adobe Acrobat), the vendor will provide written notice to the VA that the patch has been validated as not affecting the Systems within 10 working days. When the vendor is responsible for operations or maintenance of the Systems, they shall apply the Security Fixes within _15__ days.

l. When the Security Fixes involve installing third party patches (such as Microsoft OS patches or Adobe Acrobat), the vendor will provide written notice to the VA that the patch has been validated as not affecting the Systems within 10 working days. When the vendor is responsible for operations or maintenance of the Systems, they shall apply the Security Fixes within _15___ days.

m. All other vulnerabilities shall be remediated as specified in this paragraph in a timely manner based on risk, but within 60 days of discovery or disclosure. Exceptions to this paragraph (e.g. for the convenience of VA) shall only be granted with approval of the contracting officer and the VA Assistant Secretary for Office of Information and Technology.

B.2.3 SECURITY CONTROLS COMPLIANCE TESTING

On a periodic basis, VA, including the Office of Inspector General, reserves the right to evaluate any or all of the security controls and privacy practices implemented by the contractor under the clauses contained within the contract. With 10 working-day’s notice, at the request of the government, the contractor must fully cooperate and assist in a government-sponsored security controls assessment at each location wherein VA information is processed or stored, or information systems are developed, operated, maintained, or used on behalf of VA, including those initiated by the Office of Inspector General. The government may conduct a security control assessment on shorter notice (to include unannounced assessments) as determined by VA in the event of a security incident or at any other time.

B.2.4 CONTRACTOR RULES OF BEHAVIOR

This User Agreement contains rights and authorizations regarding my access to and use of any information assets or resources associated with my performance of services under the contract terms with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). This User Agreement covers my access to all VA data whether electronic or hard copy ("Data"), VA information systems and resources ("Systems"), and VA sites ("Sites"). This User Agreement incorporates Rules of Behavior for using VA, and other information systems and resources under the contract.

B.2.5 GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR ALL ACTIONS AND ACTIVITIES UNDER THE CONTRACT

a. I understand and agree that I have no reasonable expectation of privacy in accessing or using any VA, or other Federal Government information systems.

b.
