Clauses By Full Text

FBI-0023 Federal Bureau of Investigation Electronic Invoicing Requirements (Nov 2023)

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) requires vendors to submit invoices 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. To learn more about IPP, please visit IPP.gov.

Invoice Submission

Vendors are required to create and submit electronic invoices using the IPP system. Invoices submitted by email will not be accepted. This requirement applies immediately upon contract award. For contract-specific questions, please contact the designated contracting officer for your contract.

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.gov 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 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 within 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.

15F06724Q0000241 Page 6 of 18

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-0027 Prohibition on Using a Covered Application (No TikTok on Government Devices Act) (Nov 2023)

The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023, enacted the No TikTok on Government Devices Act (“the Act”), which instructs the Director of the Office of Management and Budget, in consultation with the Administrator of General Services, the Director of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, the Director of National Intelligence, and the Secretary of Defense, to develop standards and guidelines for agencies requiring the removal of TikTok from Federal information technology.

Scope Pursuant to the Act, this memorandum applies to “the social networking service TikTok or any successor application or service of TikTok developed or provided by ByteDance Limited or an entity owned by ByteDance Limited” (“covered application”) and applies to all “executive agencies” (“agencies”), as that term is defined in 41 U.S.C §

133.2 This memorandum applies to all “information technology,” as that term is defined in 40 U.S.C. § 11101(6) (herein after referred to as “IT”).

That definition reaches not only IT owned or operated by agencies, but also IT “used by a contractor under a contract with the executive agency that requires the use of that IT, whether expressly or “to a significant extent in the (Pub. L.

No. 117-328, div. R, §§ 101-02, available at https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/housebill/2617. 2 Id. § 102(a)) performance of a service or the furnishing of a product.” That definition does not, however, “include any equipment acquired by a federal contractor incidental to a federal contract."

Exceptions

The Act permits limited exceptions to the restrictions outlined in this memorandum for law enforcement activities, national security interests and activities, and security research. Exceptions must be granted by an agency head or designee of the agency head. Agency heads (HCA) remain responsible for ensuring that all individuals with delegated authority under this policy maintain the documentation required and take all necessary actions to mitigate risk posed by covered applications.

Such actions shall be submitted in writing to the Contracting Officer for HCA approval.

(End of Clause)

The Company will provide protective equipment, including personal protective equipment (PPE) for eyes, face, head, and extremities, protective clothing, respiratory devices, and protective shields and barriers. All PPE will be used and maintained in a sanitary and reliable condition. PPE will be used wherever it is necessary, to protect from injury or impairment of any part of the body, ant to protect the body through absorption, inhalation or physical contact from the hazards of processes or environment, chemical hazards, radiological hazards, or mechanical irritants encountered. It is each Employee’s responsibility to abide by established safety rules and policies. If

15F06724Q0000241 Page 7 of 18 a condition arises that presents a danger to an Employee’s health or safety, the Employee will report the hazard to his/her Supervisor, who will promptly investigate and take whatever action is necessary to correct the condition.

B. Cost

At no cost to Employees, the Company will furnish protective devices, protective apparel, and other equipment necessary to properly protect Employees in sufficient quantities and proper sizes of such protective clothing.

C. PPE Program Plan

This program should address in writing the hazards present; the selection, maintenance, and use of PPE; the training of employees; and monitoring of the program to ensure its ongoing effectiveness. The written program plan shall be submitted to the Government 15 days after award or modification of the existing contract and approved by the Contracting Officer or Contracting Officer Representative.

D. Training

Each worker required to use personal protective equipment is required to know:

i. When it is necessary

ii. What kind is necessary

iii. How to properly put it on, adjust, wear and take it off

iv. The limitations of the equipment

v. Proper care, maintenance, useful life, and disposal of the equipment

(End of Clause)

FBI-0006 (U) Contractor Suitability Special Security Requirement (SSR) (Nov 2023)

Access to FBI facilities and information is subject to specific security and suitability requirements. The FBI reserves the right and prerogative to deny and/or restrict facility and information access of any contractor employee determined by the FBI, at any time prior to or during performance, to be unsuitable for access and/or present a risk of compromising sensitive government information to which he or she would have access to under this contract. Contractors will be allotted a reasonable amount of time, determined by the government, to replace the employee found not suitable for contract performance. Failure to replace the employee may result in a no cost termination by the government.

(End of Clause)

(a) “Unsafe condition” as used in this clause means the actual or potential exposure of Contractor or Government employees to a hazardous material.

(b) “Hazardous Material” as used in this clause includes any material defined as hazardous under the latest version of Federal Standard No. 313 (including revisions adopted during the term of the contract), any other potentially hazardous material requiring safety controls, or any other material or working condition designated as hazardous by the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR).

(c) The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is responsible for issuing and administering regulations that require Contractors to apprise its employees of all hazards to which they may be exposed in the course of their employment; proper conditions and precautions for safe use and exposure; and related symptoms and emergency treatment in the event of exposure.

15F06724Q0000241 Page 8 of 18

(d) Prior to commencement of work, Contractors are required to inspect for and report to the Contracting Officer the presence of, or suspected presence of, any unsafe condition including asbestos or other hazardous materials or working conditions in areas in which they will be working.

Such notice shall include the Contractor's recommendations for the protection and the safety of Government, Contractor and subcontractor personnel and property that may be exposed to the unsafe condition.

(f) When the Government receives notice of an unsafe condition from the Contractor, the parties will agree on a course of action to mitigate the effects of that condition and, if necessary, the contract will be amended. Failure to agree on a course of action will constitute a dispute under the Disputes clause of this contract.

(g) Nothing contained in this clause shall relieve the Contractor or subcontractors from complying with applicable Federal, State, and local laws, codes, ordinances and regulations (including the obtaining of licenses and permits) in connection with hazardous material including but not limited to the use, disturbance, or disposal of such material.
