The Contractor shall maintain complete inspection records and make them available to the Government. All work shall be conducted under the general direction of the

Contracting Officer and is subject to Government inspection and test at all places and at all reasonable times before acceptance to ensure strict compliance with the terms of the contract.

(3) Constitute or imply acceptance; or

(4) Affect the continuing rights of the Government after acceptance of the completed work under paragraph (i) of this section.

(e) The Contractor shall promptly furnish, at no increase in contract price, all facilities, labor, and material reasonably needed for performing such safe and convenient inspections and tests as may be required by the Contracting Officer. The

Government may charge to the Contractor any additional cost of inspection or test when work is not ready at the time specified by the Contractor for inspection or test, or when prior rejection makes reinspection or retest necessary. The

Government shall perform all inspections and tests in a manner that will not unnecessarily delay the work. Special, full size, and performance tests shall be performed as described in the contract.

(f) The Contractor shall, without charge, replace or correct work found by the Government not to conform to contract requirements, unless in the public interest the Government consents to accept the work with an appropriate adjustment in contract price.

Performance of this contract requires contractor personnel to have a Federal government-issued Personal Identity

Verification (PIV) credential before being allowed unsupervised access to a DOI [facility and/or information system]. The

Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) or Contracting Officer's Technical Representative (COTR) will be the requesting official, and will make arrangements through a DOI Access Card Sponsor for personal identity verification and

DOI Access Card issuance.

At least two weeks before start of contract performance, the Contractor must identify all contractor and subcontractor personnel who will require [physical and/or logical] access for performance of work under this contract. Physical Access means routine, unescorted or unmonitored access to nonpublic areas of a federally-controlled facility. Logical Access means routine, unsupervised access to a Level 3 or 4 federally-controlled information system. The Contractor must make their personnel available at the place and time specified by the COR/COTR or DOI Access Card Sponsor in order to initiate screening and background investigations. The following forms and inquiries, or their equivalent, will be used to initiate the credentialing process:

● OPM Standard Form 85 or 85P

● OF 306

● National Criminal History Check (NCHC) (local procedures may require the fingerprinting to done at a police station; in this case, any charges are to be borne by the contractor)

● Release to Obtain Credit Information

● PIV card application (web-based)

Before starting work under this contract, a National Criminal History Check (NCHC) will be initiated to verify the identity of the individual applying for clearance and to determine the individual's suitability for the position. If the NCHC adjudication is favorable, a DOI Access Card will be issued for that individual. If the adjudication is unfavorable, the credentials will not be issued and the contractor must make other arrangements for performance of the work. In the event of a disagreement between the Contractor and the Government concerning the suitability of an individual to perform work under this contract, DOI shall have the right of final determination.

Contractor employees must give, and authorize others to give, full, frank, and truthful answers to relevant and material questions needed to reach a suitability 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 must ensure they are available for such contact.

Alternatively, if an individual has already been credentialed by another agency through OPM, and that credential has not yet expired, further investigation may not be necessary. In that case, the contractor must provide the COR/COTR with documentation that supports the individual's credentialed status.

Contractor employees who have been successfully adjudicated will be issued DOI Access Cards, which must be activated at a USAccess Credentialing Center. Those Contractor employees not located within a reasonable travel time of a

USAccess Credentialing Center will be screened and issued alternate credentials, such as temporary access badges.

During performance of the contract, the Contractor must keep the COR/COTR apprised of changes in personnel to ensure that performance is not delayed by compliance with credentialing processes. Cards that have been lost, damaged, or stolen must be reported to the COR/COTR and Issuing Office within 24 hours. If reissuance of expired credentials is needed, it must be coordinated through the COR/COTR.

At the end of contract performance, or when a contractor employee is no longer working under this contract, the

Contractor must ensure that all identification cards are returned to the COR/COTR.

This requirement must be incorporated into any subcontracts that require subcontractor personnel to have routine unsupervised access to a federally-controlled facility for more than 180 calendar days or any unsupervised access to a federally-controlled Level 3 or 4 information system.

A favorable screening (applicant and suitability) determination must be made by the Bureau of Indian (BIE), Personnel

Security and Suitability Program prior to contract award or made within 60 days of incorporation of this clause into a current/existing contract. Pending completion of a background investigation by OPM, the contractor who has been granted a favorable screening (applicant and suitability) determination must be within the sight and under the supervision of a Government employee who has had a completed background investigation (42 U.S.C. 13041 (3)) during contract performance until a final background investigation determination has been made.

Prior employment with the Federal Government, including BIE or the Bureau of Indian Affairs, does not assure that the appropriate screening or investigation was conducted nor does it alleviate or guarantee a favorable screening (applicant and suitability) determination or background investigation.

Prior to contract award the Acquisition Office will notify the resultant contractor to provide verification of favorable screening. Upon receipt of award within five (5) calendar days, it is solely the company, individual or contractor’s responsibility to contact the BIE Personnel Security and Suitability Program at (505) 563-5287/5288/5289/5294 in order to obtain and submit a complete security package, which includes but is not limited to appropriate investigative forms and/or inquire about their previous investigation; and, obtain a screening (applicant and suitability) determination, and subsequent final background investigation.

If an unfavorable screening (applicant and suitability) determination is made, a contract shall not be awarded to the individual who received an unfavorable screening or to the company who has provided the proposal.
