This attachment supports the Trusted Partner Program pre-solicitation issued by the Department of the Army Materiel Command Army Contracting Command Aberdeen Proving Ground (Solicitation W911NF26RA009). The tiered investigation standards outlined in this attachment likely relate to the security clearance, background investigation, or vetting requirements that academic entities and institutes of higher education must satisfy to qualify as trusted partners for conducting sensitive basic and applied scientific research on behalf of the U.S. Army. The implementation framework appears to establish different levels or tiers of investigative procedures that potential contractors would need to understand and comply with as part of their participation in the Trusted Partner Program.
