STATEMENT OF WORK

Technical and Advisory Support for Millennium Challenge Corporation's

Continuity of Operations Program Services

C.2.1. Through this acquisition, MCC seeks to acquire technical and advisory services to support all aspects of MCC's Continuity of Operations Program management, including its development, risk assessment, strategy, planning, implementation, operations, evaluation; and emergency management support that includes preparedness, response and recovery.

C.2.2. As an Executive Branch agency, MCC executes a comprehensive set of programs that are aimed to ensure domestic and international security and safety of the MCC workforce and assets, and the resumption of time-sensitive operations and services in case of a major disruption of MCC's normal operations, including localized acts of nature, accidents, and technological and/or attack-related emergencies. The COOP Program is implemented and executed in accordance with Federal laws, Executive Orders, Federal Continuity Directives and other Executive Branch direction. As specified in Annex A of Presidential Policy Directive 40 (PPD-40), the MCC is assigned to the Category IV group of agencies.

C.2.3. Consistent with MCC's Category IV designation in PPD-40, MCC's continuity operations are accomplished through remote disbursed telework when MCC's headquarters facility at 1099 14th Street, NW in Washington D.C. (Franklin Court Building) is not operational. (MCC is one of several tenants that occupy the Franklin Court Building.) When the Franklin Court Building has some operational capability during a continuity event, MCC's continuity operations may be performed at Franklin Court and by telework, as directed by Agency leadership. Given the Agency's telework continuity strategy, MCC's Chief Information Officer provides agency-wide guidance and oversight for the protection of essential records to support the performance of MCC's essential functions under any emergency or potential emergency, and, furthermore, facilitates records management improvements affecting essential records by making them accessible and searchable for users that are teleworking.

C.2.4. A key element of the Continuity of Operations Program is a family of documents known as the Continuity of Operations Plan (COOP) that is prepared in accordance with content and formatting requirements specified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), particularly those in Federal Continuity Directive 1. The principle, though not all inclusive, set of COOP documents include the following:

1) An overarching agency continuity plan that covers continuity plans for MCC's U.S. and overseas activities.

2) Six department-level continuity plans that include a U.S. continuity plan for each division with each department.

3) An overseas continuity plan for MCC's operations in foreign countries with an MCC presence that includes fourteen country continuity plans.

4) A reconstitution plan for MCC's domestic activities.

5) A pandemic influenza and contagious disease plan.

6) A multi-year strategy and program management plan.

7) A continuity risk management plan.

8) A test, training, and exercises (TT&E) program plan that also documents TT&E activities and evaluations.

9) Appendices contain reference documents.

C.2.5.1. The Domestic Security Program ensures the security and safety of the MCC workforce and assets within the United States through its physical, personnel security, insider threat, classified information, controlled unclassified information, suitability, fitness, Homeland Security President Directive 12 (HSPD 12) programs. The Domestic Security Program is responsible for program operations and the development and implementation of agency-wide policies and procedures.

C.2.5.2. The International Security Program ensures the security and safety of the MCC workforce on travel and on assignment overseas. The program analyzes and assesses overseas security and security risks; provides institutional measures to prepare MCC personnel to address travel and overseas security, safety and health concerns in partnership with the Department of State Bureau of Diplomatic Services and offices of the Chief of Missions; and supports personnel on travel and assignment overseas by providing direct support to MCC managers and employees, facilitating support of a medical service provider under MCC contract; and planning and operational coordination with Diplomatic Services and the Chief of Missions. The International Security Program is responsible for program operations and the development and implementation of agency-wide policies and procedures.

52.242-70 MCC 52.242-70 CONTRACTOR PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT RATING SYSTEM

(CPARS) REGISTRATION (NOV 2019)

The Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) utilizes the Contractor Performance Assessment Rating System (CPARS) to evaluate contractor performance (see FAR, Subparts 42.1502 and 42.1503). Contractors doing business with MCC are required to register in CPARS accessible via the Internet at: http://www.cpars.gov. An evaluation of contractor performance using the CPARS is mandatory for all contract actions exceeding the simplified threshold, but may be conducted for contract actions lower than that amount should significant events occur such as a contract termination or extraordinary contract performance by the contractor. Inquiries regarding the registration process should be addressed to the CPARS help desk.

The email address is WEBPTSMH@NAVY.MIL and the telephone number is (207) 438-1690. As part of this process, the contractor must determine who will serve as their CPARS "Contractor Representative" in the CPARS system. If, at any time, the contractor makes a determination that their CPARS Contractor Representative needs to change to a different individual, the contractor must contact MCC via email at the address CPARS@mcc.gov to notify MCC of the change so that appropriate action can be taken by MCC's CPARS Focal Points to ensure that the contractor receives timely notification of their evaluation. Failure to do so may result in the contractor not receiving their evaluation in a timely manner and may result in the contractor not receiving the opportunity to provide comments in response to MCC's evaluation. The email notification to CPARS@mcc.gov must contain the following information:

1. Name and email address of previous CPARS Contractor Representative

2. Name and email address of new CPARS Contractor Representative

3. Contract and order number (if applicable) of each affected contract that the contractor has with MCC.

(End of clause)

MCC 52.201-70 CONTRACTING OFFICER'S REPRESENTATIVE (COR) AND/OR PROJECT MONITOR

(a) The Contracting Officer may designate a Government representative to act as the Contracting Officer's Representative

(COR) or Project Monitor (PM) to perform functions under the contract such as review and/or inspection and acceptance of supplies, services, including construction, and other functions of a technical nature. The Contracting Officer will provide a written notice of such designation to the COR and/or PM and the Contractor. The designation letters will set forth the authorities and limitations of the COR and/or PM under the contract.

(b) Modifications to this contract are effective only if reduced to writing and executed by the Contracting Officer. The Contractor is specifically prohibited from performing any work that is outside the scope of this contract without the approval of the Contracting Officer. The Contracting Officer cannot authorize the COR or any other representative to sign documents (i.e., contracts, contract modifications, etc.) that require the signature of the Contracting Officer.

(End of clause)

MCC 52.204-70 SECURITY REQUIREMENTS FOR CONTRACTOR PERSONNEL - FEBRUARY 2019

A. Compliance with MCC Safety and Security Regulations at MCC Headquarters

1. Personal services contractors (PSCs) and contract employees including those working for subcontractors shall be subject to and abide by all MCC safety and security policy and procedures while on MCC premises, and satisfy applicable requirements for fitness to perform work for or on behalf of MCC, personnel security, and obtaining an MCC Photo Identification (ID) Badge.

2. MCC may impose applicable criminal, civil and/or administrative sanctions, including removal, suspension, termination or suspension of access to information, information systems, or MCC facilities, against any PSC or contractor employee who fails to adequately protect classified national security information or sensitive information, including such information designated as Controlled Unclassified Information, from unauthorized disclosure. The sanctions imposed are under the authority of the applicable laws, regulations, Government-wide and MCC policies.

B. PSC and Contract Employee Fitness and MCC Photo ID Badge Requirements

1. The following are requirements for a PSC or contractor employee who works under this contract and requires access to any of the following: MCC Headquarters, MCCNet, Sensitive But Unclassified (SBU), Foreign Government Information (FGI) or any other designated sensitive information (such as classified national security information and Controlled Unclassified Information under 32 CFR Part 2002).

a. Such an individual must be:

i.

ii.

iii.

iv.

b. In addition, if the individual is not a U.S. citizen for or in a position designated as moderate or high risk (i.e., a public trust position), the individual must have been residing, working and/or attending an educational institution in the U.S. for at least three, years.

c. MCC may allow such an individual to perform services under this contract based on: (1) a favorable suitability/fitness screening as an interim fitness determination, and (2) a favorable interim credentialing determination for issuance of an MCC Photo ID Badge, as applicable. An interim fitness determination does not satisfy requirement a. iii.) of this paragraph, and an interim credentialing determination does not satisfy requirement a. iv.) of this paragraph.

d. An investigation for an individual's fitness will be required to satisfy requirement a. iii.) except whenever the individual already has an investigation on file that meets the requirements for an investigation based on all applicable position designation(s) for the individual that satisfies/satisfy guidelines issued by the Suitability and Credentialing Executive Agent (SuitCredEA), the Security Executive Agent (SecEA) and the individual has been working for or on behalf of a Federal agency continuously for at least one year in one or more Federal positions or as a contractor employee that was/were subject to suitability or fitness investigation satisfying guidelines issued by the Suitability and Credential Executive Agent. However, no exception to the investigation requirement will be granted whenever MCC obtains new information in connection with the individuals that calls into question the individual's fitness under the criteria for suitability in 5 CFR 731.202. The investigation required will be based on position designation performed by MCC in accordance with 5 CFR 731 and 5 CFR 1400.

2. PSCs and contractor employees for or in public trust positions are subject to reinvestigation for fitness within the timeframe specified by the SuitCredEA.

3. A PSC or contractor employee whose position risk designation increases due to reassignment or change in job duties or responsibilities, is subject to the fitness investigation requirements for the higher risk position at the time the position designation is changed. If the position with the higher risk designation is the same one occupied by the individual, the individual may remain in the position while the investigation is being conducted; otherwise, the individual may not perform services under this contract in the new capacity until the requirements of B.1. of this clause are satisfied. Any upgrade in the investigation required for the new risk level will be initiated by MCC within 14 calendar days of the reassignment or change in job duties or responsibilities.

4. Fitness determinations will be made by MCC using the criteria and guidelines for making suitability determinations in 5 CFR 731.202 and related guidelines of the SuitCredEA. When no new investigation is required, MCC may determine an individual unfit when the investigative record on file for the individual shows conduct that is incompatible with the core duties of the relevant position by applying the criteria and guidelines referenced in this paragraph.

5. If a PSC or contractor employee develops one or more issues with respect to the criteria in 5 CFR 731.202 prior to any required investigation or reinvestigation, MCC may conduct an investigation at any time sufficient to resolve the issues and determine the…
