Sensitive Building Information is information sensitive enough to need some level of protection from full and open public disclosure but does not need to be classified. This information requires safeguarding and dissemination controls in order to reduce the potential that building information will be accessible to a person or persons with an interest in causing harm. Sensitive building information is under the Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) Program described in GSA policy PBS
3490.3 CHG 1. This information will be generated and/or must be disseminated to and stored by various parties in the course of executing this project. CUI building information is information that, if misused, poses a potential security risk to a building, its occupants and visitors, and/or its contents.
The A/E shall comply with the following requirements regarding CUI building information:
Safeguarding and Dissemination of Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) Building
Information
This clause applies to all recipients of CUI building information (which falls within the CUI Physical
Security category), including offerors, bidders, awardees, contractors, subcontractors, lessors, suppliers and manufacturers.
Marking CUI. Contractors must submit any contractor-generated documents that contain building information to GSA for review and identification of any CUI building information that may be included. In addition, any documents GSA identifies as containing CUI building information must be marked in accordance with the Order and the Marking Controlled Unclassified Information
Back to Top CUI 17 of 19
Handbook (the current version may be found at https://www.archives.gov/files/cui/20161206-cui-marking-handbook-v1-1.pdf ) before the original or any copies are disseminated to any other parties.

Lawful Government Purpose to access CUI building information on a case-by-case basis. This clause must not prevent or encumber the necessary dissemination of CUI building information to public safety entities.
4.7.2. Dissemination of CUI building information:
4.7.2.1. By electronic transmission. Electronic transmission of CUI information outside of the GSA network must use session encryption (or alternatively, file encryption) consistent with National Institute of Standards and Technology
(NIST) SP 800- 171. Encryption must be through an approved NIST algorithm with a valid certification, such as Advanced Encryption Standard or Triple Data
Encryption Standard, in accordance with Federal Information Processing
Standards Publication 140-2, Security Requirements for Cryptographic Modules, as required by GSA policy. \
4.7.2.2. By nonelectronic form or on portable electronic data storage devices. Portable electronic data storage devices include CDs, DVDs, and USB drives.

CHGE 1 18 Purpose to access such information; (3) contact information for the named individual; and (4) a description of the CUI building information provided. Once “as built” drawings are submitted, the contractor must collect all lists maintained in accordance with this clause, including those maintained by any subcontractors and suppliers, and submit them to the CO. For Federal buildings, final payment may be withheld until the lists are received.
4.7.4. Safeguarding CUI documents. CUI building information (both electronic and paper formats) must be stored within controlled environments that prevent unauthorized access.
GSA contractors and subcontractors must not take CUI building information outside of
