7. SECURITY OF INFORMATION AND PROTECTION OF CONTROLLED UNCLASSIFIED INFORMATION, INCLUDING PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION (APRIL 2017)

(a) Applicability

This clause applies to all controlled unclassified information, which may include personally identifiable information, as defined in Section B, regardless of the medium in which it is found and includes paper records.

(b) Definitions. As used in this clause:

“Breach” means the loss of control, compromise, unauthorized disclosure, unauthorized acquisition, unauthorized access, or any similar situation where persons other than authorized users, and for other than authorized purpose, have access or potential access to personally identifiable information, in usable form whether physical or electronic.

“Controlled Unclassified Information” means information the Government creates or possesses, or that an entity creates or possesses for or on behalf of the Government, that a law, regulation, or Government-wide policy requires or permits an agency to handle using safeguarding or dissemination controls. However, CUI does not include classified information or information a non-executive branch entity possesses and maintains in its own systems that did not come from, or was not created or possessed by or for, an executive branch agency or an entity acting for an agency. Law, regulation, or Government-wide policy may require or permit safeguarding or dissemination controls in three ways: Requiring or permitting agencies to control or protect the information but providing no specific controls, which makes the information CUI Basic; requiring or permitting agencies to control or protect the information and providing specific controls for doing so, which makes the information CUI Specified; or requiring or permitting agencies to control the information and specifying only some of those controls, which makes the information CUI Specified, but with CUI Basic controls where the authority does not specify.

“Personally identifiable information (PII)” means any information that permits the identity of an individual to be directly or indirectly inferred, including any other information that is linked or linkable to that individual regardless of whether the individual is a citizen of the United States, legal permanent resident, or a visitor to the United States. Examples of PII include the following:

(1) Name.

(2) Date of birth.

(3) Mailing address.

(4) Telephone number.

(5) Social Security Number.

(6) Email address.

(7) Zip code.

(8) Account numbers.

(9) Certificate/license numbers.

(10) Vehicle identifiers including license plates.

(11) Uniform resource locators (URLs).

(12) Internet protocol addresses.

(13) Biometric identifiers (e.g., fingerprints).

(14) Photographic facial images.

(15) Any other unique identifying number or characteristic.

(16) Any information where it is reasonably foreseeable that the information will be linked with other information to identify the individual.

“Sensitive personally identifiable information (sensitive PII)” means a subset of PII, which if lost, compromised or disclosed without authorization, could result in substantial harm, embarrassment, inconvenience, or unfairness to an individual.

(1) Complete social security numbers, alien registration numbers (A-number) and biometric identifiers (such as fingerprint, voiceprint, or iris scan) are considered sensitive PII even if they are not coupled with additional PII.

(2) Additional examples include any grouping of information that contains an individual’s name or other unique identifier plus one or more of the following elements:

(i) Driver’s license number, passport number, or truncated social security number (such as last 4 digits);

(ii) Date of birth (month, day, and year);

(iii) Citizenship or immigration status;

(iv) Financial information such as account numbers or electronic funds transfer information;

(v) Medical information; and/or

(vi) System authentication information such as mother’s maiden name, account passwords or personal identification numbers.

(3) Other PII may be “sensitive” depending on its context, such as a list of employees with less than satisfactory performance ratings or an unlisted home address or phone number. In contrast, a business card or public telephone directory of agency employees contains PII but it is not sensitive.

(c) Data Security.

(1) The Vendor shall limit access to the data covered by this clause to those employees and subcontractor who require the information in order to perform their official duties under this task order.

(2) The Vendor employees, and subcontractors must physically or electronically secure CUI, which may include sensitive PII, when not in use and/or under the control of an authorized individual, and when in transit to prevent unauthorized access or loss.

(3) When CUI is no longer needed or required to be retained under applicable Government records retention policies, it must be destroyed in accordance with NIST 800-88 standards.

(4) The Vendor shall only use CUI obtained under this task order for purposes of the Vendor; it shall not be disclosed, released, disseminated, or published without the prior written consent of the Contracting Officer.

(5) If it is established elsewhere in this task order that information to be utilized under this task order, or a portion thereof, is subject to the Privacy Act, The Vendor shall follow the rules and procedures of disclosure set forth in the Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. 552a, and implementing regulations and policies, with respect to systems of records determined to be subject to the Privacy Act.

(6) At expiration or termination of this task order, the Vendor shall turn over all CUI obtained under the Vendor that is in its possession.

(d) Systems Access. Work to be performed under this task order may require the handling of CUI, including PII. The Vendor shall provide the Government access to, and information regarding those systems handling CUI, including sensitive PII for the Government under the Vendor, when requested by the Government, as part of the Vendor’s responsibility to ensure compliance with security requirements, and shall otherwise cooperate with the Government in assuring compliance with such requirements.

(e) During the course of the performance of this purchase order, the Vendor may have access to and use of data and information which may be considered proprietary by other Vendors, or which may otherwise be of such a nature that its dissemination or use, other than in performance of this purchase order, would be adverse to the interest of NARA and these other Vendors.

(f) Except as may be otherwise agreed to with these other Vendors, the Vendor agrees that it will not use, disclose or reproduce proprietary data and information belonging to these other Vendors other than as required in the performance of this purchase order; provided, however, that nothing herein shall be construed as: (1) precluding the use of any such data or information independently acquired by the Vendor without such limitation; or (2) prohibiting an agreement at no cost to NARA between the Vendor and these Vendors which provides for greater rights to the Vendor.

(g) When considering a request to disclose, release, disseminate, or publish confidential information, the Contracting Officer will consult with appropriate program and legal officials.

(h) At the discretion of the Contracting Officer, the Vendor’s employees may be required to sign a non-disclosure agreement prior to performing any work under this purchase order.

KEY PERSONNEL

a.

The Vendor agrees to assign to the purchase order those key persons whose resumes were submitted with the Vendor’s quotation as required to fill the requirements of the purchase order. No substitution or addition of personnel will be made except in accordance with this clause or by written permission by the Contracting Officer.

b.

The Vendor agrees that during the first 12 months of the purchase order, no personnel substitutions will be permitted, unless such substitutions are necessitated by an individual's sudden illness, death or termination of employment. In any of these events, the Vendor shall promptly notify the Contracting Officer and provide the information required by paragraph (d) below.

c.

If key personnel, for whatever reason, become unavailable for work under this purchase order for a continuous period exceeding thirty (30) working days, or are expected to devote substantially less effort to the work than indicated in its quotation, the Vendor shall propose a substitution of such personnel, in accordance with paragraph (d) below.

d.

All proposed key personnel substitutions shall be submitted, in writing, to the Contracting Officer at least thirty (30) days, or ninety (90) days if a security clearance is to be obtained, in prior to the proposed substitution. Each request shall provide a detailed explanation of the circumstances necessitating the proposed substitution; a complete resume(s) for the proposed substitute(s); and any other information required by the Contracting Officer to approve or disapprove the proposed substitution(s). Resumes for key personnel substitutions must be submitted in accordance with the format specified. All proposed substitutes (no matter when they are proposed during the performance period) shall have qualifications that are equal to or higher than the qualifications of the person being replaced.

e.

In the event the Vendor designates additional key personnel as deemed appropriate for the requirement, the Vendor shall submit to the Contracting Officer for approval the information required in paragraph (d) above.

f.

The Contracting Officer shall evaluate requests for substitution and addition of personnel and promptly notify the Vendor, in writing, whether a request is approved or disapproved.

g.

If the Contracting Officer determines that suitable and timely replacement of key personnel who have been reassigned, terminated, or have otherwise become unavailable to perform under the purchase order is not reasonably forthcoming, or that a resultant reduction of productive effort would impair the successful completion of the purchase order, the purchase order may be terminated by the Contracting Officer for default or for the convenience of the Government, as appropriate. Alternatively, at the Contracting Officer's discretion, if the Contracting Officer finds the Vendor to be at fault for the condition, the CO may equitably adjust (downward) the purchase order price to compensate the Government for any delay, loss or damage as a result of the Vendor's action.

13. NARA VENDOR PERSONAL IDENTITY VERIFICATION PROCEDURES

Identification/Building Pass

Photo Identification Badges will be provided to those that meet the below Physical Access Suitability requirements. The Vendor shall make its personnel available for photo identification badges on a schedule to be determined by the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR). The badges will be made by the Government utilizing supplies, materials and equipment provided by the Government. Each Vendor employee shall sign the appropriate badge at the time of photographing.

(a) Vendor personnel designated to receive an ID/Building Pass will be subjected to NACI background investigation and must be approved in accordance with Homeland Security Presidential Directive-12 (HSPD-12) and OMB guidance M-05-24.

(b) The Vendor is responsible for ensuring that each of its employees performing work under this purchase order display their photo-identification badges at all times they are present on-duty in the building. Refusal or repeated neglect to display the photo-identification may result in an unsuitable determination.

(c) Upon termination, resignation or other event leading to a purchase order employee leaving duty under this purchase order, the Vendor is responsible for returning all Government identification, building passes, keys, and other Government property issued to that employee. Failure on the part of the Vendor may result in the Vendor's liability for all costs associated with correcting the resultant breech in building security.

(d) The Vendor shall notify the COR when the employee badges are lost. It shall be the responsibility of the Vendor to pay for replacement badges at the current replacement cost per badge.

(e) The requirements of this clause are applicable to and shall be flowed down to all subcontractors who will work at NARA facility(ies).

Physical Access Suitability

(a) The Government will have, and will exercise, full and complete control over granting, denying, withholding or terminating suitability determinations for all purchase order employees granted access to Government facilities. All employees assigned to positions requiring access to NARA facilities under this purchase order shall be subject to background investigations at the "National Agency Check with Inquiries" (NACI) level. Vendor personnel with access to NARA Desktop Common Productivity Tools shall also be required to comply with this requirement. The Government may, as it deems appropriate, authorize and grant temporary access to employees of the Vendor and its subcontractors. However, the granting of temporary access to any such employee will not be considered as assurance that full suitability determination will follow as a result or condition thereof. The granting of either temporary or full access will in no way prevent, preclude, or bar the withdrawal or termination of any such suitability determination by the Government as deemed necessary to protect facilities.

(b) Unless otherwise specified, the Vendor must submit to the COR, as soon as possible, but not later than ten (10) working days before purchase order performance is required to begin, one (1) completed Form FD 258, Fingerprint Chart; one (1) background investigation form (SF 85, SF-85-P or SF-86, as applicable)((this may be through e-QIP system with prior coordination with the NARA Personnel Security Office); one (1) Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification; and one (1) Declaration for Federal Employment, Optional Form 306 (OF 306) for those officers of the firm who may visit the worksite during the period of this purchase order and for all employees who have access to the buildings in the performance of the purchase order work. These forms must be submitted for replacement employees (10) days before entrance on duty. The Government will be responsible for processing these forms and adjudicating the results of the investigations. If the Government receives an unsuitable report on any employee after processing these forms, The Vendor shall be advised immediately that such employee cannot continue to work, or be assigned to work, under this purchase order. Vendors, who hire employees investigated and determined suitable during employment with preceding Vendors, are not required to submit another set of these forms, if the employee has been determined suitable within the past three (3) years, unless specifically requested to do so by the COR.

(c) During the course of this purchase order, regardless of where the work is being performed, in a NARA facility or another location authorized by the purchase order, the Vendor may come into contact with data files subject to the Privacy Act. If this situation occurs, Privacy Act data must conform to the provisions of the Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. 552a, as amended. The Vendor also may come into contact with sensitive documents and sensitive information about documents and quoted Federal Agency actions. The Vendor, including Vendor’s personnel, Subcontractors, and consultants must not divulge or release data or information developed or obtained in performance of this task except to authorized Government personnel or upon written approval of the Contracting Officer. The Vendor must not use, disclose, or reproduce proprietary data, which bears a restrictive legend, other than as required in the performance of this task. The limitations above do not apply to data or information that has been made public by the Government.

(d) If Vendor Personnel have a completed NACI from another Federal Agency, verification of the completed NACI must be forwarded to the NARA Personnel Security Officer. This may require obtaining a copy of the completed investigation. If Vendor Personnel possess a National Security Clearance through another Federal Agency, the granting agency must provide verification of the Clearance to the NARA Personnel Security Officer. A National Security Clearance shall suffice in the event the personnel are performing work at NARA that only requires an investigation below that required for a National Security Clearance.

(e) The requirements of this clause are applicable to, and must flow down, to all subcontractors who will work at NARA facility(ies).
