The Contractor shall identify all Contractor and subcontractor personnel who will be required to have physical access for performance of work under this contract at least three weeks before the start of contract performance. The
Contractor must make their personnel available at the place and time specified by the COR in order to initiate screening and background check
During the investigation process, the Contractor employees are required to complete four steps in the HSPD-12 credentialing process. These steps entail:
1. Sponsorship by a Federal employee (COR)
2. Enrollment in the US Access System
3. Adjudication
4. Activation of the Credential
The Contractor employees are required to give, and to authorize others to give, full, frank, and truthful answers to relevant and material questions needed to reach a suitable determination. Refusal or failure to furnish or authorize provision of information may constitute grounds for denial or revocation of credentials. Government personnel may contact the Contractor personnel being screened or investigated in person, by telephone or in writing, and the
Contractor agrees to make them available for such contact.
Alternatively, if an individual has already been credentialed by another agency through the Office of Personnel
Management (OPM), and that credential has not yet expired, further investigation may not be necessary. The
Contractor must provide the COR with documentation that supports the individual’s status.
During performance of the contract, the Contractor shall keep the COR apprised of changes in personnel to ensure that performance is not delayed by compliance with credentialing process. Cards that have been lost, damaged, or stolen must be reported to the COR and Issuing Office within 24 hours. Replacement will be at the Contractor’s expense. If re-issuance of expired credentials is needed, it will be coordinated through the COR.
The Contractor shall ensure all identification cards are returned to the COR when no longer needed for contract performance, upon completion of a contractor employee’s employment, or upon contract completion or termination.
The Contracting Office (CO) may delay final payment if the Contractor fails to comply with these requirements.
Before starting work under this contract, a National Agency Check (NAC) will be conducted to verify the identity of the individual applying for clearance. Upon successful completion of the NAC process, an identification card will be issued, and access is granted.
Simultaneously, a NAC with Inquires (NACI) will be initiated to determine the individual’s suitability for the position.
If the NACI adjudication is favorable, nothing more needs to be done. If the adjudication is unfavorable, the credentials will be revoked. In the event of a disagreement between the Contractor and the Government concerning the suitability of an individual to perform work under this contract, the Department of the Interior (DOI) will have the right of the final determination.
This requirement must be incorporated into any subcontracts that require subcontractor personnel to have regular and routine unsupervised access to a Federally controlled facility or access to a Federally- controlled information system.
