Service vendors must sign in at the front desk and sign a visitors log declaring whether or not they are a US citizen every time they visit the COL. Sending a foreign national technician or assistant to perform work at the Oxford facility without notification and obtaining appropriate clearance will result in workers being turned away without obligation for any compensation to the vendor for services rendered and will be grounds for contract termination.
