CLAUSES INCORPORATED BY FULL TEXT

THE FOLLOWING NAVSUP LOCAL TEXT IS HEREBY MADE PART OF THE STATEMENT OF

WORK/PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT.

NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Center Norfolk Groton Office may utilize contractor support through the AbilityOne

Program, as needed, to perform contract closeout functions for this acquisition. Information, including business sensitive/confidential or proprietary data, that the offeror provides to the Government or information already in the possession of the Government may be viewed and utilized by the AbilityOne Program support contractor personnel during the course of its contract performance. The information that may be made available to the support contractor may include, for example, pricing and technical proposals, historical contract, pricing and performance information, Commercial Asset Visibility (CAV) reporting information and similar data/information.

By submission of a proposal in response to this solicitation, the offeror and its subcontractors consent to a release of their business sensitive/confidential or proprietary data to the Government's AbilityOne Program support contractor personnel in order to perform close out services. Prior to the release of any such information to the support contractor, the support contractor will have in place with the Government a Non-Disclosure/Non-Use Agreement in accordance with the terms of the AbilityOne Program support contract.

Offerors may execute their own Non-Disclosure Agreement with the AbilityOne Program (AbilityOne contact information available from the contracting point of contact). The support contractor must provide copies of the executed agreements to the Contracting Officer and the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) for the support contract; and the offeror/contractor for this acquisition must provide copies of the executed Agreement to the

Contracting Officer for this acquisition. If the offeror/contractor seeks such a Non-Disclosure Agreement with the

AbilityOne Program support contractor, the Agreement must be executed no later than the date of final delivery under the resulting NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Center Norfolk Groton Office contract.

LOWEST PRICE TECHNICALLY ACCEPTABLE

The Government will award on the basis of price unless the contracting officer is aware of past performance information related to the low price quote/offer which indicates that quote/offer may not represent best value. In that case, the Government reserves the right to consider the past performance of other quotes/offers, conduct a price, past performance tradeoff, and award to other than the lowest price quote/offer.

AUTHORIZED CHANGES ONLY BY THE CONTRACTING OFFICER

(a) Except as specified in paragraph (b) below, no order, statement, or conduct of Government personnel who visit the Contractor's facilities or in any other manner communicate with Contractor personnel during the performance of this contract shall constitute a change under the "Changes" clause of this contract.

Contractor Unclassified Access to Federally Controlled Facilities, Sensitive Information, Information

Technology (IT) Systems or Protected Health Information

Executive Order 13467, Reforming Processes Related to Suitability for Government Employee, Fitness for

Contractor Employees and Eligibility for Access to Classified National Security Information, Homeland

Security Presidential Directive (HSPD)-12, requires government agencies to develop and implement Federal security standards for Federal employees and contractors. The 5 CFR 32 Part 157 in concert with DoD Manual

1000.13, Vol 1, implements the Federal Standards.

APPLICABILITY

This text applies to all DoD sponsored individuals who require CAC eligibility (or login and P/W if acceptable per contract) for: Physical access to DoD facilities or non-DoD facilities on behalf of DoD; Logical access to information systems (whether on site or remotely); or remote access to DoD networks that use only the CAC logon for user authentication, or access to sensitive and protected information. This applies to the Office of the

Secretary of Defense (OSD), the Military Departments, the Office of the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the Joint Staff, the Combatant Commands, the Office of the Inspector General of the DoD, the Defense

Agencies, the DoD Field Activities and all other organizational entities within the DoD (hereinafter referred to collectively as the "DoD Components").

Each contractor employee providing services at a Navy command under this contract is required to obtain a

DoD CAC. Additionally, depending on the level of computer/network access, the contract employee will require a successful investigation as detailed below.

ACCESS TO FEDERAL FACILITIES

Per HSPD-12 and implementing guidance, all contractor employees working at a federally controlled base, facility or activity under this clause will require a DoD CAC. When access to a base, facility or activity is required contractor employees shall in-process with the Command's Security Manager (CSM) upon arrival to the command and shall out-process prior to their departure at the completion of the individual's performance under the contract.

START-UP PERIOD

All contractor resource onboarding documents must be submitted via the prime contractor. The prime contractor shall make all necessary preparations to assume full responsibility for productive performance as of the performance start date.

Definition of “productive”:

a. Visit Authorization Request (VAR)

b. Contractor Information Sheet (CIS)

c. FD-258 Fingerprint Card

d. Completed Electronic Investigation (EQIP)

e. All contractor resource(s) must have an active Joint Personnel Adjudication System (JPAS) profile

f. Common Access Card(CAC)

Note (1): Invoicing by the contractor will begin as of the commencement of the performance period of services and no reimbursement will be paid by the government for efforts expended during the start-up period.

Note (2): Foreign Nationals are not allowed access to the functional/system side of Enterprise Resource

Planning (ERP).

ACCESS TO DOD INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY (IT) SYSTEM

In Accordance With (IAW) Secretary of the Navy (SECNAV) M-5510.30, contractor employees who require access to Department of the Navy (DoN) or DoD networks are categorized as IT-I, IT-II, or IT-III. The IT-II level, defined in detail in SECNAV M-5510.30, includes positions which require access to sensitive information. Sensitive information includes information protected under the Privacy Act, to include PHI. All contractor employees under this contract who require access to Privacy Act protected information are therefore categorized no lower than IT-II. IT Levels are determined by the requiring activity's Command Information

System Security Manager (ISSM)/Information Assurance Manager (IAM).

Contractor employees requiring privileged or IT-I level access, (when specified by the terms of the contract) require a Single Scope Background Investigation (SSBI) or T5 or T5R equivalent investigation, which is a higher level investigation than the National Agency Check (NAC) with Law and Credit (NACLC)/T3/T3R described below. Due to the privileged system access, an investigation suitable for High Risk national security positions is required. Individuals who have access to system control, monitoring, or administration functions

(e.g. system administrator, database administrator) require training and certification to Information Assurance

(IA) Technical Level 1, and must be trained and certified on the Operating System (OS) or Computing

Environment (CE) they are required to maintain.

Access to sensitive IT systems is contingent upon a favorably adjudicated background investigation. When access to IT systems is required for performance of the contractor employee's duties, such employees shall in-process with the Navy CSM and ISSM/IAM manager upon arrival to the Navy command and shall out-process prior to their departure at the completion of the individual's performance under the contract. Completion and approval of a System Authorization Access Request Navy (SAAR-N) form is required for all individuals accessing Navy IT resources. The decision to authorize access to a government IT system/network is inherently governmental. The contractor supervisor is not authorized to sign the SAAR-N; therefore, the government employee with knowledge of the system/network access required or the Contracting Officers

Representative (COR) shall sign the SAAR-N as the supervisor.

The SAAR-N shall be forwarded to the CSM at least thirty (30) days prior to the individual's start date. Failure to provide the required documentation at least thirty (30) days prior to the individual's start date may result in delaying the individual's start date.

When required to maintain access to required IT systems or networks, the contractor shall ensure that all employees requiring access complete annual Cyber Awareness training, and maintain a current requisite background investigation. The contractor's security representative shall contact the CSM for guidance when reinvestigations are required.

INTERIM ACCESS

The CSM may authorize issuance of a DoD CAC and interim access to a DoN or DoD unclassified computer/network upon a favorable review of the investigative questionnaire and advance favorable fingerprint results. When the results of the investigation are received and a favorable determination is not made, the contractor employee working on the contract under interim access will be denied access to the computer network and this denial will not relieve the contractor of his/her responsibility to perform.

DENIAL OR TERMINATION OF ACCESS

The potential consequences of any requirement under this clause including denial or termination of physical or system access in no way relieves the contractor from the requirement to execute performance under the contract within the timeframes specified in the contract. Contractors shall plan ahead in processing their employees and subcontractor employees. The contractor shall insert this clause in all subcontracts when the subcontractor is permitted to have unclassified access to a federally controlled facility, federally-controlled information system/network and/or to government information, meaning information not authorized for public release.

CONTRACTOR'S SECURITY REPRESENTATIVE

The contractor shall designate an employee to serve as the contractor's security representative. Within three (3) work days after contract award, the contractor shall provide to the requiring activity's Security Manager and the Contracting Officer, in writing, the name, title, address and phone number for the contractor's security representative. The contractor's security representative shall be the primary point of contact on any security matter. The contractor's security representative shall not be replaced or removed without prior notice to the

Contracting Officer and CSM.

BACKGROUND INVESTIGATION REQUIREMENTS AND SECURITY APPROVAL PROCESS FOR

CONTRACTORS ASSIGNED TO NATIONAL SECURITY POSITIONS OR PERFORMING SENSITIVE

DUTIES

Navy security policy requires that all positions be given a sensitivity value based on level of risk factors to ensure appropriate protective measures are applied. Contractor employees under this contract are recognized as

Non-Critical Sensitive [ADP/IT-II] positions when the contract scope of work require physical access to a federally controlled base, facility or activity and/or requiring access to a DoD computer/network, to perform unclassified sensitive duties. This designation is also applied to contractor employees who access Privacy Act and PHI, provide support associated with fiduciary duties, or perform duties that have been identified as

National Security Positions. At a minimum, each contractor employee must be a US citizen and have a favorably completed NACLC or T3 or T3R equivalent investigation to obtain a favorable determination for assignment to a non-critical sensitive or IT-II position. The investigation consists of a standard NAC and a FBI fingerprint check plus law enforcement checks and credit check. Each contractor employee filling a non-critical sensitive or IT-II position is required to complete:

SF-86 Questionnaire for National Security Positions (or equivalent Office of Personnel Management (OPM) investigative product)

Two FD-258 Applicant Fingerprint Cards (or an electronic fingerprint submission

Original Signed Release Statements

Failure to provide the required documentation at least thirty (30) days prior to the individual's start date shall result in delaying the individual's start date. Background investigations shall be reinitiated as required to ensure investigations remain current (not older than ten (10) years) throughout the contract performance period. The contractor's security representative shall contact the CSM for guidance when reinvestigations are required.

Regardless of their duties or IT access requirements ALL contractor employees shall in-process with the CSM upon arrival to the command and shall out-process prior to their departure at the completion of the individual's performance under the contract. Employees requiring IT access shall also check-in and check-out with the

Navy command's ISSM/IAM. Completion and approval of a SAAR-N form is required for all individuals accessing Navy IT resources. The SAAR-N shall be forwarded to the Navy CSM at least thirty (30) days prior to the individual's start date. Failure to provide the required documentation at least thirty (30) days prior to the individual's start date shall result in delaying the individual's start date.

The contractor shall ensure that each contract employee requiring access to IT systems or networks complete annual Cyber Awareness training, and maintain a current requisite background investigation. Contractor employees shall accurately complete the required investigative forms prior to submission to the CSM. The

CSM will review the submitted documentation for completeness prior to submitting it to the OPM; Potential suitability or security issues identified may render the contractor employee ineligible for the assignment. An unfavorable determination is final (subject to SF-86 appeal procedures) and such a determination does not relieve the contractor from meeting any contractual obligation under the contract. The CSM will forward the required forms to OPM for processing. Once the investigation is complete, the results will be forwarded by

OPM to the DoD Central Adjudication Facility (CAF) for a determination.

If the contractor employee already possesses a current favorably adjudicated investigation, the contractor shall submit a VAR via the JPAS or a hard copy VAR directly from the contractor's security representative.

Although the contractor will take JPAS owning role over the contractor employee, the Navy command will take JPAS "Servicing" role over the contractor employee during the hiring process and for the duration of assignment under that contract. The contractor shall include the IT position category per SECNAV M-5510.30 for each employee designated on a VAR. The VAR requires annual renewal for the duration of the employee's performance under the contract.

BACKGROUND INVESTIGATION REQUIREMENTS AND SECURITY APPROVAL PROCESS FOR

CONTRACTORS ASSIGNED TO OR PERFORMING NON-SENSITIVE DUTIES

Contractor employee whose work is unclassified and non-sensitive (e.g., performing certain duties such as lawn maintenance, vendor services, etc...) and who require physical access to publicly accessible areas to perform those duties shall meet the following minimum requirements:

Must be either a U.S. citizen or a U.S. permanent resident with a minimum of 3 years of legal residency in the

U.S. (as required by the Deputy Secretary of Defense DTM 08-006 or its subsequent DoD Instruction (INST)) and

Must have a favorably completed NACI or T1 investigation equivalent including a FBI fingerprint check prior to installation access.

To be considered for a favorable trustworthiness determination, the CSR must submit for all employees each of the following:

SF-85 Questionnaire for Non-Sensitive Positions

Two FD-258 Applicant Fingerprint Cards (or an electronic fingerprint submission)

Original Signed Release Statements

The contractor shall ensure each individual employee has a current favorably completed NACI or T1 equivalent investigation, or ensure successful FBI fingerprint results have been gained and investigation has been processed with OPM.

Failure to provide the required documentation at least thirty (30) days prior to the individual's start date may result in delaying the individual's start date.

* Consult with your CSM and ISSM/IAM for local policy when IT-III (non-sensitive) access is required for non-U.S. citizens outside the U.S..*

**Alternative language which may be included as appropriate:

Contractor and all Contractor personnel with access to or responsibility for XXXXXX of this contract shall comply with DoD Directive 8500.1E IA, DoDI 8510.01 Risk Management Framework (RMF) for DoD IT, DoD Directive 5400.11 DoD Privacy Program, DoD 5200.2-R Personnel Security Program and HSPD 12.

X.1 Be CAC ready at the IT Level II prior to reporting for work.

X.2 At minimum, all contractor personnel must possess/maintain a favorable Tier 3 investigation; formerly a

NAC with Local Agency Check and Credit Check (NACLC). This requirement is critical in order to access the data base systems within NAVSUP. It is Contracting Companies; responsibility to ensure that 100% of the contractors have the Tier 3 investigation/IT Level II. In addition, interim approval of clearances is not authorized.

X.3 Be citizens of the U.S.

X.4 If at any time, any contractor person requiring a CAC is unable to possess/maintain an adjudicated Tier 3 investigation, the contractor shall immediately notify the NAVSUP COR to coordinate removal of such a person from work under this contract.

X.5 Contractor personnel with access to or responsibility for nonpublic government data under this contract must comply with HSPD-12 Personal Identity Verification (PIV) issuance requirements, known as the CAC for NAVSUP.
