VHA 106A WMC HROO PerSec Contractor Team SERVICES

OVERVIEW

The VHA 106A WMC HROO PerSec Contractor Team offers comprehensive services which ensures that contractor security requirements are met in accordance with OPM and federal regulations from initiation to completion.

Communication is maintained between the team POC, the contracting officer, the contracting officer representative (COR) and the Contracting company point-of-contact at all times during the process. Due to PII concerns, personnel not listed on the Contractor Request Form will be sent statuses from the Team POC.

If another entity requires this information, they must work through the CO, COR or Company POC. This service provided includes the below:

Fingerprint adjudication:

o This involves a thorough background screening and adjudication of fingerprint along with any self- declared information. The National Criminal History Check (NCHC) Form will be sent to all contacts via email once the investigation is scheduled with the Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency (DCSA).

Existing investigations:

o Verifying existing investigation information and collecting the required documents for reciprocity.

The required documentation would include the OF306 Form and Self-Certification Form. These documents would be provided upon confirmation of investigation through DCSA's Portal.

New investigations:

o Upon receipt of the Contract Security Services Request Packet and all required documents our office will enter required applicants into the eApp system, review, return or release, and monitor the investigation progress through completion.

PIV Badges:

o Our office can only adjudicate PIV badges at this time. The COR on the contract or local personnel must sponsor the contractor/s in the PIV portal prior to adjudication by this office.

This is so that we can assign the new contracts as fast as possible for you.
