Amendment 0001 is issued to update Section C, Contract Clauses, and removes FHWA Local
Clauses which are not applicable to this requirement. Amendments are indicated by red and struck through text on the following pages and these pages (C-32 through C-40) now become the official pages in the RFQ and any subsequent PO award.
All other stipulations remain unchanged.
C-32
AMENDMENT 0001
within any of the categories defined in paragraph (c) prior to receipt of the Contracting Officer’s response issued under paragraph (e) of this clause.
(e) The Contracting Officer shall respond in writing within 30 days to any notice made under paragraph (d) of this clause. A failure of the parties to agree upon the nature of a direction, or upon the contract action to be taken with respect thereto, shall be subject to the provisions of the Disputes clause of this contract.
(f) The Contractor shall provide copies of all correspondence to the Contracting Officer and the TPOC.
(g) Any action(s) taken by the Contractor, in response to any direction given by any person acting on behalf of the Government or any Government official other than the Contracting Officer or the TPOC acting within his or her appointment, shall be at the Contractor’s risk.
(End of Clause)
FHWA-004 -- U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) Contractor Personnel Security and Agency Access (November 2011)
(a) Definitions. The following definitions are provided:
“Agency Access” means access to USDOT facilities, sensitive information, information systems, or other USDOT resources.
“Applicant” is a Contractor employee for whom the Contractor applies for a USDOT identification card.
“Contractor Employee” means prime Contractor and Subcontractor employees who require agency access to perform work under a USDOT contract.
“Identification Card” (or “ID card”) means a government-issued or accepted identification card such as a Personal Identity Verification (PIV) card, a PIV Interoperable (PIV-I) card from an authorized PIV-I issuer, or a non-PIV card issued by USDOT, or a non-PIV card issued by another Federal agency and approved by USDOT. PIV and PIV-I cards have physical and electronic attributes that other (non-PIV) ID cards do not have.
“Issuing Office” means the USDOT entity that issues identification cards to Contractor employees.
“Local Security Servicing Organization” means the USDOT entity that provides security services to the USDOT organization sponsoring the contract.
(b) Risk and Sensitivity Level Designations. For contracts requiring access to USDOT facilities, sensitive information, information systems, or other USDOT resources, the Contractor employees will be required to complete background investigations, identity proofing, and Government identification card application procedures to determine suitability for access. USDOT will assign a risk and sensitivity level designation to the overall contract and to Contractor employee positions
C-33 by category, group, or individual. The risk and sensitivity level designations will be the basis for determining the level of personnel security processing required for Contractor employees.
IF THE DESIGNATED RISK IS THE BACKGROUND INVESTIGATION IS
Low National Agency Check with Written Inquiries (NACI) Moderate Minimum Background Investigation (MBI) High Background Investigation (BI)
Contractor employees may also be required to obtain security clearances (i.e., Confidential, Secret, or Top Secret). National Security work designated “special sensitive,” “critical sensitive,” or “non-critical sensitive” will determine the level of clearance required for Contractor employees.
Personnel security clearances for national security contracts in USDOT will be processed according to the Department of Defense National Industrial Security Program Operating Manual
(NISPOM).
Historically, similar contracts and the associated Contractor employee positions have been designated “Low Risk” and only the NACI investigation has been conducted. This investigation is appropriate for positions designated as public trust positions that require responsible and trustworthy employees but with no national security impact.
(c) Pre-screening of Contractor Employees. Pre-screen individuals designated for employment under any USDOT contract by verifying minimal suitability requirements to ensure that only quality candidates are considered for contract employment, and to mitigate the burden on the Government of conducting background investigations on objectionable applicants. The Contractor must exercise due diligence in pre-screening all employees before submission to USDOT for agency access. USDOT may decline to grant the agency access to a contractor employee for reasons including, but not limited to:
(1) Conviction of a felony, a crime of violence, or a misdemeanor involving moral turpitude.
(2) Falsification of the information entered on forms or of other documents submitted.
(3) Improper conduct including criminal, infamous, dishonest, immoral, or notoriously disgraceful conduct or other conduct adverse to the Government regardless of whether the conduct is directly related to the contract.
(4) Any behavior judged to pose a potential threat to USDOT facilities, sensitive information, information systems, or other resources.
(d) Citizenship and Alien Status. As necessary, monitor an alien’s continued authorization for employment in the United States. Provide documentation to the Contracting Officer or the Contracting Officer’s Representative during the background investigation process that validates that the E-Verify requirement has been met for each Contractor employee.
(e) Background Investigation and Adjudication. The Contractor employee must have a favorable adjudication of background investigation before USDOT will issue an ID card to the Contractor employee granting access to USDOT facilities, sensitive information, and information systems, or other USDOT resources. USDOT may accept favorable adjudications of background investigations from other Federal agencies when applicants have held PIV cards issued by those agencies with no break in service. USDOT may also accept PIV-I (interoperable) cards issued by an authorized PIV-I issuer as evidence of identity. A favorable adjudication does not preclude
C-34
USDOT from initiating a new investigation when deemed necessary. At a minimum, the FBI National Criminal History Check (fingerprint check) must be favorably completed before a USDOT identification card can be issued. Each Contractor must use the Office of Personnel Management’s (OPM) e-QIP system to complete any required investigative forms. Instructions for obtaining fingerprints will be provided by the COR or CO. The USDOT Office of Security, M- 40, or a USDOT organization delegated authority by M-40, is responsible for adjudicating the suitability of Contractor employees.
(f) Agency Access Denied. Upon contract award, USDOT will initiate the agency access procedure for all Contractor employees requiring access to USDOT facilities, sensitive information, information systems, and other USDOT resources for contract performance. USDOT may deny agency access to any individual about whom an adverse suitability determination is made. Failure to submit the required security information or to truthfully answer all questions shall constitute grounds for denial of access. The Contractor must not provide agency access to Contractor employees until the COR or CO provides notice of approval, which is authorized only by the USDOT Office of Security (M-40) or a USDOT organization delegated authority by M-40.
Where a proposed Contractor’s employees are denied agency access by the Government or, if for any reason proposed applications are withdrawn by the Contractor during the agency access process, the additional costs and administrative burden for conducting additional background investigations caused by a lack of effective pre-screening or planning on the part of the Contractor may be considered as part of the Contractor’s overall performance evaluation.
(g) Identification Card Application Process.
(1) The COR will be the USDOT ID card Sponsor and point of contact for the Contractor’s application for a USDOT ID card. The COR shall review and approve the USDOT ID card application before an ID card is issued to the applicant. An applicant may be issued either a Personal Identity Verification (PIV) card that meets the standards of the Homeland Presidential Security Directive (HSPD-12), or an applicant may be issued a non-PIV card. Generally, a non- PIV card will be issued for contracts that expire in six (6) months or less, including option periods.
The COR may request the issuing office to waive the six (6) month eligibility requirement when it is in USDOT’s interest for contract performance.
(2) The applicant must complete a USDOT online application for a PIV card. For a non-PIV card, the applicant must complete and submit a hard copy of Form 1681 to the COR/Sponsor.
Regardless of the type of card to be issued (PIV or non-PIV), the applicant must appear in person to provide two forms of identity source documents in original form to USDOT. The identity source documents must come from the list of acceptable documents included in Form I-9, OMB No. 1115- 0136, Employment Eligibility Verification. At least one document must be a valid State or Federal Government-issued picture identification. For a PIV card, the applicant may be required to appear in person a second time for enrollment and activation.
(h) Identification Card Custody and Control.
(1) The Contractor is responsible for the custody and control of all forms of Government identification issued by USDOT to Contractor employees for access to USDOT facilities, sensitive information, information systems, and other USDOT resources. The Contractor must immediately notify the COR or, if the COR is unavailable the CO, when a contractor employee no longer requires agency access due to transfer, completion of a project, retirement, removal from work on the contract, or termination of employment.
C-35
(2) The Contractor is responsible for maintaining and safeguarding the USDOT ID card upon issuance to the Contractor employee. Ensure that Contractor employees comply with USDOT requirements concerning the renewal, loss, theft, or damage of an ID card. The Contractor must immediately notify the COR or, if the COR is unavailable, the CO when an ID card is lost, stolen, or damaged.
(3) Failure to comply with the requirements for custody and control of USDOT ID cards may result in withholding final payment or contract termination based on the potential for serious harm caused by inappropriate access to USDOT facilities, sensitive information, information systems, or other USDOT resources.
(i) Renewal. A Contractor employee’s USDOT issued ID card is valid for a maximum of three (3) years or until the contract expiration date (including option periods), whichever occurs first. The renewal process should begin six (6) weeks before the PIV card expiration date. If a PIV card is not renewed before it expires, the Contractor employee will be required to sign-in daily for facility access and may have limited access to information systems and other resources.
(ii) Lost/Stolen. Immediately upon detection, the Contractor or Contractor employee must report a lost or stolen USDOT ID card to the COR, or if the COR is unavailable, the CO, the issuing office, or the local servicing security organization. The Contractor must submit an incident report within 48 hours, through the COR or, if the COR is unavailable, the CO, the issuing office, or the local security servicing organization describing the circumstances of the loss or theft. The Contractor must also report a lost or stolen PIV card through the USDOT online registration system. If the loss or theft is reported by the Contractor to the local police, a copy of the police report must be provided to the COR or CO. From the date of notification to USDOT, the Contractor must wait three (3) days before getting a replacement ID card. During the 3-day wait period, the Contractor employee must sign in daily for facility access.
(iii) Replacement. An ID card will be replaced if it is damaged, contains incorrect data, or is lost or stolen for more than 3 days, provided there is a continuing need for agency access to perform work under the contract.
(i) Surrender of ID Cards. Upon notification that routine access to USDOT facilities, sensitive information, information systems, or other USDOT resources is no longer required, the Contractor must surrender the USDOT issued ID card to the COR, or if the COR is unavailable, the CO, the issuing office, or the local security servicing organization following agency procedures.
(j) The Contractor is required to flow down this paragraph in any subcontracts that require the
Subcontractor or Subcontractor’s employees to have access to USDOT facilities, sensitive information, information systems, or other resources.
FHWA-005 -- HOMELAND SECURITY PRESIDENTIAL DIRECTIVE-12 (HSPD-12) (August 2004)
(a) Homeland Security Presidential Directive-12 was issued in response to the general threat of unauthorized persons gaining access to federal facilities and information systems. HSPD-12 requires all Federal agencies to use a common Personal Identity Verification (PIV) standard when identifying and issuing access rights to users of Federally controlled facilities and Federal Information Systems.
C-36
(b) To perform the work specified herein, Contractor personnel will require access to sensitive data, regular access to USDOT-controlled facilities, and access to USDOT information systems.
The Government has determined the position risk/sensitivity level under this effort to be low risk/non-sensitive.
(c) Accordingly, before any individual may obtain a USDOT identification card (new or replacement) authorizing him/her routine access to USDOT facilities, or logical access to USDOT's information systems, the individual must provide two forms of identity source documents in original form. One identity source document must be a valid Federal or state Government-issued picture identification card. USDOT Contractors must contact the USDOT servicing security organization to obtain the list of acceptable forms of documentation. Submission of these documents, and related background checks, are mandatory for the Contractor to receive a building access identification card, and before access will be granted to any of USDOT's information systems. Identification documents must be presented again to receive the card after it is manufactured. USDOT identification cards are Government property and must be returned when access to Government facilities or information systems is no longer authorized, e.g., upon the termination of employment, upon the Contractor's reassignment of the employee to a non- USDOT project, upon the termination of the contract, or upon demand by USDOT.
(d) The minimum Government investigation for a low-risk or non-sensitive position is a National
Agency Check and Inquiries (with fingerprinting), which consists of searches of records covering specific areas of a person's background during the past five (5) years. Those inquiries are sent to current and past employers, schools attended, references, and local law enforcement authorities. Higher-level positions, above low risk/non-sensitive, require more extensive documentation and investigation.
(e) To the greatest extent practicable, Contractors should ensure that the employees whose names they submit have a reasonable chance for access approval. Delays associated with rejections and consequent reinvestigations may not be excusable.
(f) Comply with all applicable HSPD-12 and PIV procedures, as described above, and any subsequent DOT or government-wide HSPD-12 and PIV procedures/policies, including any subsequent related DOT directives and required procedures.
(g) In the event of inconsistencies between this clause and later issued agency or government-wide HSPD-12 guidance, the most recently issued guidance shall take precedence unless otherwise instructed by the Contracting Officer.
(h) The Contractor is required to flow down this paragraph in any subcontracts that require the
Subcontractor or Subcontractor’s employees to have access to USDOT facilities, sensitive information, information systems, or other resources..
FHWA-006 -- Contractor Personnel Preprocessing, Background Investigation, and Information Security System Awareness Training (ISSAT)
(a) This FHWA local clause applies to contracts that have or will have Contractor Personnel (CP) working onsite in FHWA facilities, require Department of Transportation (DOT) network
C-37 access, require access to sensitive information, or access to DOT resources. The clause is issued to:
(1) Supplement DOT HSPD-12 Personal Identity Verification, TAR 1252.237-70 Qualifications of Contractor Employees, and TAR 1252.239-70 Security Requirements for Unclassified Information Technology Resources, as applicable;
(2) Provide detailed instructions for preprocessing CP and initiating background investigations;
(3) Implement the requirement for CP who work onsite in FHWA facilities or require DOT network access to submit proof of Information Security System Awareness (ISSA) training in conjunction with their background investigation request; and
(4) Provide information about the required ISSA training.
(b) CP shall not be permitted to begin work in USDOT facilities, have connectivity to the USDOT network, access sensitive information, OR access USDOT resources until documentation required to initiate a background investigation is received, ISSA training is completed, and authorization is received from USDOT Personnel Security. The initial process takes several business days and IS ONLY THE BEGINNING OF THE ACTUAL BACKGROUND INVESTIGATION. The Contractor, Program Manager (PM)/CP will be notified by USDOT Personnel Security via e-mail once CP are cleared to report for duty. While CP may report for duty, final clearance is granted only after the background investigation is complete. Completion of the background investigation can take months depending upon the actual investigation findings and the depth of investigation that results from those findings. The Government will provide the Contractor/PM/CP with all required forms to initiate a background investigation for use by CP.
Contractor/PM/CP shall complete and submit required forms for a background investigation as soon as possible after notification of selection for a position. It is imperative that the PM and CP respond promptly to any additional information requests from the COR, USDOT Personnel Security, or the Office of the Secretary of Transportation (OST) Security Office so that the process can be completed as efficiently and quickly as possible.
(c) Within five (5) days of selection for a position, Contractor employees shall submit all required forms and other items for a background security clearance to the WFL-COR Security Liaison (address and email below). The Government will provide the required security clearance investigation forms to the Contractor for use by the contractor employee. A contractor employee cannot begin work until the Contractor receives a Notice to Proceed or other official notification.

(d) The Federal Highway Administration utilizes the Contractor Performance Assessment
Reporting System (CPARS) to record and maintain past performance information. CPARS hosts a suite of web-enabled applications that are used to document contractor performance information that is required by Federal Regulations. The CPARS module assesses performance on contracts for Systems, Services, Information Technology, and Operations Support; Architect-Engineer contracts; and Construction contracts. Reference material can be accessed in CPARS.
(e) The registration process requires the Contractor to identify an individual that will serve as a primary contact. This individual will be authorized access to the evaluation for review and comment. In addition, the Contractor is encouraged to identify a secondary contact in the event the primary contact is unavailable to process the evaluation within the required 60-day time period. After the FHWA Focal Point registers the contract in CPARS, the contractor representative will receive a system-generated email notifying him/her that the contract is registered. A system-generated email will also provide the Contractor with a User ID if the person does not already have a CPARS User ID.
(f) After a performance evaluation has been prepared and is ready for comment, the
Contractor representative will receive a system-generated email notification that the performance evaluation is electronically available for review and comment. The Contractor representative will receive an automated email whenever an assessment is completed and can subsequently retrieve the completed assessment from CPARS for review and comment.
