This Agreement refers to RFP N6523625R3800 in support of Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC), Atlantic, entered into between NIWC Atlantic and [CompanyName] (Company).

As an officer of [CompanyName], authorized to bind the company, I understand that in connection with the documents provided under RFP N6523625R3800, your company will receive or have access to Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI).

NIWC Atlantic’s policy is to permit access to this RFP information only where such information is restricted to those individuals requiring access in the development of company’s proposal to the subject RFP.

In accordance with the above policy, [CompanyName] hereby agrees that it shall inform each employee tasked to review this information for the development of proposal documentation regarding their obligation to utilize information only for the purposes of proposal development and to safeguard information from unauthorized use and disclosure.

· Utilize accessed information only for the purposes of proposal development as required herein, and not for any other purpose unless authorized;

· Safeguard accessed information from unauthorized use and disclosure, providing the same level of protection that would be provided by NIWC Atlantic employees, and exercising the same reasonable degree of care that would normally be used to protect a contractor’s own confidential business information;

· Not discuss, divulge, or disclose any accessed information to any person or entity except those persons authorized to receive the information or as authorized by Federal statute, law, or regulation;

[CompanyName] agrees that it will notify the Contracting Officer in writing of any violation of the above requirements as soon as the violation is identified, no later than 24 hours. The notice shall include a description of the violation and the proposed actions to be taken, and shall include the business organization, other entity, or individual to whom the information was divulged. [CompanyName] further agrees and acknowledges that in addition to such notice that the employee will be restricted from further access until authorized in writing (via letter or email) by the Contracting Officer.

By my signature on this Agreement, as an officer of [CompanyName], I certify that I am authorized to execute this Agreement, binding the company. I further certify that I have read and fully understand the obligations under this Agreement. I understand that any unauthorized access or disclosure of information by an employee in violation of this Agreement may create an Organizational Conflicts of Interest (OCI) that cannot be mitigated and may result, at a minimum, in removal from the competitive range of this solicitation. [CompanyName] hereby agrees to abide by and enforce all the provisions contained herein, in addition to any existing or subsequently approved OCI mitigation plan submitted by the company.
