Contractor Reporting Requirements: The contractor is required to submit, on a monthly basis, to the COR (or the CO, if no COR was designated) a report of all employees working on the contract who have been issued CAC cards and a verification of whether each listed employee still requires a CAC. The report must note where changes have occurred (additions or deletions) since the previous month. Contractor employees who already have a CAC related to another DLA or DoD contract must be included in the monthly report. Contractor shall note the issuing organization and the CAC expiration date. Contractor is still responsible for notifying the COR/CO when the individual is no longer working under the subject contract.

The above procedures have been established as a DLA security measure. Contractors are advised that failure to comply with any of the above requirements will be considered a violation of the terms and conditions of the contract and the Contracting Officer may take action to remedy such violations. Specifically, failure to safeguard, follow these procedures, including reporting requirements, or turn-in CACs within the established timeframes may result in the following actions, which are in addition to other actions the Contracting Officer may take under governing law and regulation and the terms and conditions of the contract:

• Immediate work stoppage (issuance of a stop work order), not to be lifted until resolution of CAC issue

• Disapproval of invoices and delay of payment

• Withholding of final payment (in accordance with FAR 52.204-9)
