FBI-0023 Federal Bureau of Investigation Electronic Invoicing Requirement (JUL 2024)

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) requires vendors to submit a proper invoice and supporting documentation electronically through the Invoice Processing Platform (IPP). IPP is a secure, web-based electronic invoicing system provided by the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Bureau of the Fiscal Service (Treasury) in partnership with the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis (FRSTL). IPP is available at no cost to any commercial vendor or independent contractor doing business with a participating government agency.

Invoice Submission

Vendors are required to create and submit electronic invoices using the IPP system. All supporting documentation shall be uploaded into the IPP system.

Invoices must be submitted at least monthly but no more than bi-weekly. Final invoices must be submitted 30 days after the end date of the period of performance.

Invoices submitted by email will not be accepted. This requirement applies immediately upon contract award. For contract-specific questions, please contact the contracting officer.

Obtaining IPP Access

If your company has already enrolled in IPP: You will not be required to re-register. Please contact your company's IPP account administrator so that he/she may add you as an additional user to your company's IPP collector account.

If your company has NOT enrolled in IPP: Your company will be auto enrolled for IPP using information from your SAM account. Your company's Primary Electronic Business Point of Contact (POC) will be designated as an IPP administrator.

This POC will be contacted by email to register when the FBI initiates the enrollment process through IPP. To prevent enrollment delays, please ensure your designated Electronic Business POC in sam.gov is up to date. Your company's IPP administrator will be responsible for initial account registration as well as creating and managing your company's IPP

15F06726R0000086 Page 7 of 36 users and permissions. Please note that due to U.S. Department of the Treasury guidelines, IPP cannot set up User IDs using a shared email address.

How to register for IPP:

1. Once FBI Initiates the enrollment process, your company's designated Electronic Business POC in sam.gov will receive two emails from IPP Customer Support (noreply@mail.eroc.twai.gov). The first email contains the initial administrative IPP User ID. The second email, sent with 24 hours of receipt of the first email, contains a temporary password. You must log in with the temporary password within 30 days.

2. Registration is complete when the initial administrative user logs into the IPP web site with the User ID and password provided and accepts the IPP rules of behavior. Additional user accounts, including administrators, can be created after initial login.

Training

Vendor training materials, including a first-time login tutorial, are available on the IPP.gov website. Once you have logged in to the IPP application, you will have access to user guides that provide step-by-step instructions for all IPP capabilities ranging from creating and submitting an invoice to setting up email notifications.

Additional Support

IPP Customer Support Team is available Monday through Friday from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm EST. Phone: (866) 973-3131 or email: IPPCustomerSupport@fiscal.treasury.gov For answers to frequently asked questions, visit the Vendor FAQ page on the gov web site.

(End of clause)

FBI-0022 Information and Communication Technology Compliance in accordance with Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act (Nov 2023)

In accordance with Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Architectural and Transportation Barriers Compliance Board, Information Communication Technology (ICT) Accessibility Standards, all ICT supplies and services supplied as part of this contract shall meet the applicable accessibility standards at 36 CFR Part 1194.

Before acceptance, the contractor shall provide an Accessibility Conformance Report (ACR) for each ICT item that is developed, updated, configured for the agency, and when product substitutions are offered. The ACR should be based on the latest version of the Voluntary Product Accessibility Template provided by the Industry Technology Industry Council (ITIC). To be considered for award, an ACR must be submitted for each ICT Item, and must be completed according to the instructions provided by ITIC.

Before acceptance, when the contractor is required to perform testing to validate conformance to the agency's accessibility requirements, the vendor shall provide a Supplemental Accessibility Conformance Report (SAR) that contains the following information:

• Accessibility test results based on the required test methods.

• Documentation of features provided to help achieve accessibility and usability for people with disabilities.

• Documentation of core functions that cannot be accessed by persons with disabilities.

• Documentation on how to configure and install the ICT item to support accessibility.

• When an ICT item is an authoring tool that generates content (including documents, reports, videos, multimedia productions, web content, etc.), provide information on how the ICT item enables the creation of accessible

15F06726R0000086 Page 8 of 36 electronic content that conforms to the Revised 508 Standards, including the range of accessible user interface elements the tool can create.

• Before final acceptance, the contractor shall provide a fully working demonstration of the completed ICT Item to demonstrate conformance to the agency's accessibility requirements. The demonstration shall expose where such conformance is and is not achieved.

• Before acceptance, the agency reserves the right to perform independent testing to validate that the ICT solution provided by the contractor conforms to the applicable Revised 508 Standards.

(End of Clause)

FBI-0029 Public Release of Information (OCT 2024)

The FBI requires that contractors shall not divulge, publish, or disclose information or produce material related to the contract award, or acquired in or derived from the performance of their duties without prior written consent of the FBI.

For purposes of this Clause, "Information" shall include but not be limited to any or all written or spoken language or recordings made public, including: web sites or social media platforms, including X (formerly Twitter), Instagram, TikTok, etc.; publications, studies, books, and theses; photographs and videos/films; and public announcements and press releases describing any part of the subject matter of this contract or any phase of any program hereunder, except to the extent such information is:

1) already known to the Contractor prior to the commencement of the contract; or

2) required by law, regulation, subpoena or government or judicial order to be disclosed, including the Freedom of Information Act.

No release of information shall be made without the prior written consent of the Office of Public Affairs and/or the Contracting Officer of the FBI. Information should be sent to:[Contracting Officer's Email]. The FBI will make every effort to review proposed publications in a timely manner. Public disclosure of information without prior FBI approval could result in financial penalties or a termination for default of the contract.

Where appropriate, in accordance with established academic publishing practices, the FBI reserves the right to author/co-author any publication derived from this contract.

These obligations do not cease upon completion of the contract.

(End of clause)

FBI-0030 Organizational Conflict of Interest (OCT 2024)

a. Purpose: The purpose of this clause is to ensure that:

i. The Contractor is rendering impartial assistance and advice to the Government at all times under this contract and related Government contracts;

ii. The Contractor’s objectivity in performing work under this contract or related Government contracts is not impaired; and

iii. The Contractor does not obtain an unfair competitive advantage by virtue of its access to non-public Government information, or by virtue of its access to proprietary information belonging to others.

b.Scope: The Organizational Conflict of Interest (OCI) rules, procedures and responsibilities described in FAR 9.5 “Organizational and Consultant Conflicts of Interest”, FAR 3.101-1 “Standards of Conduct – General, and in this clause are applicable to the prime Contractor (including any affiliates and successors-in-interest), as well as any co-sponsor, 15F06726R0000086 Page 9 of 36 joint-venture partner, consultant, subcontractor or other entity participating in the performance of this contract. The Contractor shall flow this clause down to all subcontracts, consulting agreements, teaming agreements, or other such arrangements which have OCI concerns, while modifying the terms "contract", "Contractor", and "Contracting Officer" as appropriate to preserve the Government's rights.

c. Access to and Use of Nonpublic Information: If in performance of this contract the contractor obtains access to nonpublic information such as plans, policies, reports, studies, financial plans, or data which has not been released or otherwise made available to the public, the Contractor agrees it shall not use such information for any private purpose or release such information without prior written approval from the Contracting Officer.

d. Access to and Protection of Proprietary Information: The Contractor agrees to exercise due diligence to protect proprietary information from misuse or unauthorized disclosure in accordance with FAR 9.505-4. The Contractor may be requested to enter into a written non-disclosure agreement with a third party asserting proprietary restrictions, if required in the performance of the contract.

e. In accordance with FAR 3.101-1, the Contractor shall also take all appropriate measures to prevent the existence of conflicting roles that might bias the Contractor’s judgement, give the Contractor an unfair competitive advantage, and deprive the FBI of objective advice or assistance that can result from hiring former Government employees. (See Health Net Fed. Svcs, B-401652.3).

f. OCI Disclosures: The Contractor shall disclose to the Contracting Officer all facts relevant to the existence of an actual or potential OCI, prior to award and any time after award. In the proposal submission, contractors must certify that they have not participated in the development of the solicitation in any capacity and must provide a list of any former FBI employees. OCI Disclosures after award must address any listed in this clause or FAR 9.5. This disclosure shall include a description of the OCI and the action the Contractor has taken or plans to take to avoid, neutralize or mitigate the OCI.

g. Remedies and Waiver:

i. If the contractor fails to comply with any requirements of FAR 9.5, FAR 3.101-1, or this clause, the Government may terminate this contract for default, disqualify the Contractor from subsequent related contractual efforts if necessary to neutralize a resulting organizational conflict of interest, and/or pursue other remedies permitted by law or this contract. If the Contractor discovers and promptly reports an actual or potential OCI subsequent to contract award, the Contracting Officer may terminate this contract for convenience if such termination is deemed to be in the best interest of the Government or take other appropriate actions.

ii. The parties recognize that the requirements of this clause may continue to impact the contractor after contract performance is completed, and that it is impossible to foresee all future impacts. Accordingly, the Contractor may at any time seek an OCI waiver from the FBI Head of Contracting by submitting a written waiver request to the Contracting Officer. Any such request shall include a full description of the OCI and detailed rationale for the OCI waiver.

(End of clause)

DOJ-01 Whistleblower Information Distribution (Nov 2023)

Within 30 days of contract award, the contractor and its subcontractors must distribute the “Whistleblower Information for Employees of DOJ Contractors, Subcontractors, Grantees, or Sub-Grantees or Personal Services Contractors” (“Whistleblower Information”) document to their employees performing work in support of the products and services delivered under this contract (https://oig.justice.gov/sites/default/files/2020-04/NDAA-brochure.pdf).

15F06726R0000086 Page 10 of 36

(End of Clause)

DOJ-02 Contractor Privacy Requirements (Nov 2023)

A. Limiting Access to Privacy Act and Other Sensitive Information

(1) Privacy Act Information

In accordance with FAR 52.224-1 Privacy Act Notification (APR 1984) and FAR 52.224-2 Privacy Act (APR 1984), if this contract requires Contractor personnel to have access to information protected by the Privacy Act of 1974, the contractor is advised that the relevant DOJ system of records notices (SORNs) applicable to this Privacy Act information may be found at https://www.justice.gov/opcl/doj-systems-records.[1] Applicable SORNs published by other agencies may be accessed through those agencies’ websites or by searching the Federal Digital System (FDsys) available at http:// www.gpo.gov/fdsys/. SORNs may be updated at any time.

(2) Prohibition on Performing Work Outside a Government Facility/Network/Equipment

Except where use of Contractor networks, IT, other equipment, or Workplace as a Service (WaaS) is specifically authorized within this contract, the Contractor shall perform all tasks on authorized Government networks, using Government-furnished IT and other equipment and/or WaaS and Government information shall remain within the confines of authorized Government networks at all times. Any handling of Government information on Contractor networks or IT must be approved by the Senior Component Official for Privacy of the component entering into this contract.

Except where remote work is specifically authorized within this contract, the Contractor shall perform all tasks described in this document at authorized Government facilities; the Contractor is prohibited from performing these tasks at or removing Government-furnished information to any other facility; and Government information shall remain within the confines of authorized Government facilities at all times. Contractors may only access classified materials on government furnished equipment in authorized government owned facilities regardless of remote work authorizations.

(3) Prior Approval Required to Hire Subcontractors

The Contractor is required to obtain the Contracting Officer's approval prior to engaging in any contractual relationship (Subcontractor) in support of this contract requiring the disclosure of information, documentary material and/or records generated under or relating to this contract. The Contractor (and any Subcontractor) is required to abide by Government and Agency guidance for protecting sensitive and proprietary information.

(4) Separation Checklist for Contractor Employees

The Contractor shall complete and submit an appropriate separation checklist to the Contracting Officer before any employee or Subcontractor employee terminates working on the contract. The Contractor must submit the separation checklist on or before the last day of employment or work on the contract. The separation checklist must verify:

(1) return of any Government-furnished equipment;

(2) return or proper disposition of personally identifiable information (PII)[2], in paper or electronic form, in the custody of the employee or Subcontractor employee including the sanitization of data on any computer systems or media as appropriate; and

15F06726R0000086 Page 11 of 36

(3) termination of any technological access to the Contractor’s facilities or systems that would permit the terminated employee’s access to PII or other sensitive information.

In the event of adverse job actions resulting in the dismissal of a Contractor or Subcontractor employee before the separation checklist can be completed, the Prime Contractor must notify the Contracting Officer within 24 hours and confirm receipt of the notification. In the case the Contractor is unable to notify the Contracting Officer, then the Contractor should notify the Contract Officer’s Representative (COR).

Contractors must complete the separation checklist with the Contracting Officer or COR by returning all Government-furnished property including, but not limited to, computer equipment, media, credentials and passports, smart cards, mobile devices, Personal Identity Verification (PIV) cards, calling cards, and keys and terminating access to all user accounts and systems. Unless the Contracting Officer requests otherwise, the relevant Program Manager or other Key Personnel designated by the Contracting Officer or COR may facilitate the return of equipment.

B. Privacy Training, Safeguarding, and Remediation

(1) Required Security and Privacy Training for Contractors

The Contractor must ensure that all employees take appropriate privacy training, including Subcontractors who have access to PII as well as the creation, use, dissemination and/or destruction of PII at the outset of the employee’s work on the contract and every year thereafter. Training must include procedures on how to properly handle PII, including heightened security requirements for the transporting or transmission of sensitive PII, and reporting requirements for a suspected breach or loss of PII. These courses, along with more information about DOJ security and training requirements for Contractors, are available at https://www.justice.gov/jmd/learndoj. The Federal Information Security Modernization Act of 2014 (FISMA) requires all individuals accessing DOJ information to complete training on records management, cybersecurity awareness, and information system privacy awareness. Contractor employees are required to sign the “Privacy Rules of Behavior,” acknowledging and agreeing to abide by privacy law, policy, and certain privacy safeguards, prior to accessing DOJ information. These Rules of Behavior are made available to all new users of DOJ’s computer network and to trainees at the conclusion of DOJ-OPCL-CS-0005.

The Contractor should maintain copies of certificates as a record of compliance and must submit an email notification annually to the COR verifying that all employees working under this contract have completed the required privacy and cybersecurity training.

(2) Safeguarding PII Requirements

Contractor employees must comply with DOJ Order 0904 and other guidance published to the publicly-available Office of Privacy and Civil Liberties (OPCL) Resources page[3] relating to the safeguarding of PII, including the use of additional controls to safeguard sensitive PII (e.g., the encryption of sensitive PII). This requirement flows down from the Prime Contractor to all Subcontractors and lower tiered subcontracts.

(3) Non-Disclosure Agreement Requirement

Prior to commencing work, all Contractor personnel that may have access to PII or other sensitive information shall be required to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) and the DOJ IT Rules of Behavior. The Non-Disclosure Agreement:

(a) prohibits the Contractor from retaining or divulging any PII or other sensitive information, or derivatives therefrom, furnished by the Government or to which they may otherwise come in contact as a result of their

15F06726R0000086 Page 12 of 36 performance of work under the contract/task order that is otherwise not publicly available, whether or not such information has been reduced to writing; and

(b) requires the Contractor to report any loss of control, compromise, unauthorized disclosure, or unauthorized acquisition of PII or other sensitive information to the component-level or headquarters Security Operations Center within one (1) hour of discovery.

The Contractor should maintain signed copies of the NDA for all employees as a record of compliance. The Contractor should also provide copies of each employee’s signed NDA to the Contracting Officer before the employee may commence work under the contract/task order.

(4) Prohibition on Use of PII in Vendor Billing and Administrative Records

The Contractor’s invoicing, billing, and other financial or administrative records or databases is not authorized to regularly store or include any sensitive PII or other confidential government information that is created, obtained, or provided during the performance of the contract without the written permission of the Senior Component Official for Privacy (SCOP). It is acceptable to list the names, titles and contact information for the Contracting Officer, COR, or other personnel associated with the administration of the contract in the invoices as needed.

(5) Reporting Actual or Suspected Data Breach

Contractors must report any actual or suspected breach of PII within one hour of discovery.[4] A “breach” is an incident or occurrence that involves the loss of control, compromise, unauthorized disclosure, unauthorized acquisition, or any similar occurrence where:

(1) a person other than an authorized user accesses or potentially accesses PII or

(2) an authorized user accesses or potentially accesses PII for an other than authorized purpose. The report of a breach must be made to DOJ. The Contractor must cooperate with DOJ’s inquiry into the incident and efforts to minimize risks to DOJ or individuals, including remediating any harm to potential victims.

(a) The Contractor must develop and maintain an internal process by which its employees and Subcontractors are trained to identify and report the breach, consistent with DOJ Instruction 0900.00.01[5], Reporting and Response Procedures for a Breach of Personally Identifiable Information.

(b) The Contractor must report any such breach by its employees or Subcontractors to the DOJ Security Operations Center (dojcert@usdoj.gov, 202-357-7000); Component-level Security Operations Center and Component-level Management Team, where appropriate; the COR; and the Contracting Officer within one (1) hour of the initial

(c) The Contractor must provide a written report to the DOJ Security Operations Center (dojcert@usdoj.gov, 202-357-7000) within 24 hours of discovery of the breach by its employees or Subcontractors. The report must contain the following information:

(i) Narrative or detailed description of the events surrounding the suspected loss or compromise of information.

[6] Date, time, and location of the incident.

(ii) Amount, type, and sensitivity of information that may have been lost or compromised, accessed without authorization, etc.

15F06726R0000086 Page 13 of 36

(iii) Contractor’s assessment of the likelihood that the information was compromised or lost and the reasons behind the assessment.[7]

(iv) Names and classification of person(s) involved, including victim, Contractor employee/Subcontractor and any witnesses.

(v) Cause of the incident and whether the company’s security plan was followed and, if not, which specific provisions were not followed.[8]

(3) Requirement to Support Privacy Compliance

(a) If this contract requires the development, maintenance or administration of information technology[9], the Contractor shall support the completion of the Initial Privacy Assessment (IPA) document, if requested by Department personnel.

An IPA is the first step in a process to identify potential privacy issues and mitigate privacy risks. The IPA asks basic questions to help components assess whether additional privacy protections may be needed in designing or implementing a project[10] to mitigate privacy risks, and whether compliance work may be needed. Upon review of the IPA, the OPCL determines whether a Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) document and/or SORN, or modifications thereto, are required.

The Contractor shall provide adequate support to complete the applicable risk assessment and PIA document in a timely manner, and shall ensure that project management plans and schedules include the IPA, PIA, and SORN (to the extent required) as milestones. Additional information on the privacy compliance process at DOJ, including IPAs, PIAs, and

15F06726R0000086 Page 15 of 36

SORNs, is located on the DOJ OPCL website (https://dojnet.doj.gov/privacy/), including DOJ Order 0601, Privacy and Civil Liberties. The Privacy Impact Assessment Guidance and Template outline the requirements and format for the PIA.

(b) If the contract involves an IT system build or substantial development or changes to an IT system that may require privacy risk assessment and documentation, the Contractor shall provide adequate support to DOJ to ensure DOJ can complete any required assessment, and IPA, PIA, SORN, or other supporting documentation to support privacy compliance.

For example, the sensitivity level of a list of individuals’ names may depend on the source of the information, the other information associated with the list, the intended use of the information, the ways in which the information will be processed and shared, and the ability to access the information.” OMB Circular A-130, at App. II-2.

[9] As defined in 40 U.S.C. § 11101, the term “information technology” means any equipment or interconnected system or subsystem of equipment, used in the automatic acquisition, storage, analysis, evaluation, manipulation, management, movement, control, display, switching, interchange, transmission, or reception of data or information by the executive agency, if the equipment is used by the executive agency directly or is used by a contractor under a contract with the executive agency that requires the use (i) of that equipment or (ii) of that equipment to a significant extent in the performance of a service or the furnishing of a product; includes computers, ancillary equipment (including imaging peripherals, input, output, and storage devices necessary for security and surveillance), peripheral equipment designed to be controlled by the central processing unit of a computer, software, firmware and similar procedures, services (including support services), and related resources; but does not include any equipment acquired by a federal contractor incidental to a federal contract.

[10] In this instance, the term “project” is used to scope the activities (e.g., creating, collecting, using, processing, storing, maintaining, disseminating, disclosing, or disposing of information) covered by an IPA. A project is intended to be technology-neutral, and may include an information system, a digital service, an information technology, a combination thereof, or some other activity that may create potential privacy issues or privacy risks that would benefit from an IPA. The scope of a project covered by an IPA is discretionary, but components should work with their SCOP and OPCL.
