The individual must have a valid U.S. or State issued photo ID, or U.S. Passport to show for proof of identity. If the individual is driving a vehicle, it must have a valid driver’s license with current registration and insurance for the vehicle being driven on the installation. Everyone in the vehicle will be required to go through this process.

1. If the current contractor has a rapid gate pass, the pass will be recognized until the RAPIDGate program goes away (approximately 31 March 2016) and a NCIC check will not be performed. If the RAPIDGate holder requires re-occurring access after 31 March 2016, they will need to contact the Contracting Officer identified on the contract for additional procedures.

2. If the vendor only requires one-time access, then the vendor is highly encouraged to access the base through Gate 3. Gate 3 will perform the NCIC checks. In order for the NCIC check to be performed at the gate:

a. The individual must have a valid U.S. or State issued photo ID, or U.S.

Passport to show for identity proof.

b. If the individual is driving a vehicle, it must have a valid driver’s license with current registration and insurance for the vehicle being driven onto the installation.

c. Foreign National Visitors must present their passport or foreign military identification badge. Foreign National Visitors or Contractors/Vendors must be escorted by a DoD ID card holder at all times while on the installation.

3. All identification presented must meet the requirements of the Real ID Act: The REAL ID Act of 2005 establishes minimum standards for the production and issuance of state issued driver licenses and identification cards which include requirements for a photograph and certain biographic information, such as name, DOB, gender, height, eye color and address. State issued driver license and identification (ID) cards from states not meeting the standards cannot be used for accessing Federal facilities beginning 10 January 2016, unless the issuing state’s compliancy deadline had been extended by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). As of 31 December 2015, DHS indicates that Driver Licenses and ID cards from the following states are not compliant with the standards of the REAL ID Act: Illinois, Minnesota, Missouri, New Mexico, and Washington. Therefore, individuals presenting driver’s licenses or state identification cards from these states will be required to present a second form or identification. Accepted secondary forms of identification include;

a. U.S. passport or U.S. passport card

b. Permanent Resident Card/Alien Registration Receipt Card (Form I-551)

c. Foreign passport with a temporary (I-551) stamp or temporary (I-551) printed notation on a machine-readable immigrant visa

d. Employment authorization document that contains a photograph (Form I-766)

e. In the case of a nonimmigrant alien authorized to work for a specific employer incident to status, a foreign passport with Form I-94 or Form I-94A bearing the same name as the passport and containing an endorsement of the person's nonimmigrant status, as long as the endorsement has not yet expired and the proposed employment is not in conflict with any restrictions or limitation identified on the form.

f. Current/valid driver's license from a REAL ID Act state or a state with a REAL ID Act extension for implementation

g. Driver's license or ID card issued by federal or local government agencies meeting REAL ID standards with photo, name, date of birth, gender, height, eye color and address.

h. School ID card with photograph

l. Native American Tribal Document Twenty-three (23) other states are pursuing compliancy for their programs and have an extended compliancy deadline of 10 October 2016. States such as Alaska, California, New Jersey and South Carolina are included in the extended compliancy deadline list. All persons requesting unescorted access will continue to be vetted through the NCIC prior to being issued a locally produced ID or pass. If a visitor requesting access does not have REAL ID Act compliant form of identification and cannot provide supplemental identity proofing documents, they must be escorted at all times while one the installation. The vendor will only be granted access onto Fort Carson Installation if the NCIC III check on the individual shows no disqualifying issues in the check. Gate 3 will allow them to enter the base. If there are disqualifying issues Gate 3 access control will notify the individual contractor that they are being denied access. The following information can deny an individual entry onto Fort Carson:

_ The NCIC-III check contains criminal information about the individual that causes the senior commander to determine that the individual presents a potential threat to the good order, discipline, or health and safety of the installation.

_ The installation is unable to verify the individual’s claimed identify based on the reasonable belief that the individual has submitted fraudulent information concerning his or her identity in the attempt to gain access.

_ The individual has a current arrest warrant in NCIC, regardless of the offense or violation.

_ The individual is currently barred from entry or access to a Federal installation or facility.

_ The individual has been convicted of crimes encompassing sexual assault, armed robbery, rape, child molestation, production or possession of child pornography, trafficking in humans, drug possession with intent to sell or drug distribution.

AMC-LEVEL PROTEST PROGRAM

Prior to submitting an agency protest, it is preferable that you first attempt to resolve your concerns with the responsible contracting officer. However, you may also file a protest to the Headquarters (HQ), Army Materiel Command (AMC). The HQ AMC-Level Protest Program is intended to encourage interested parties to seek resolution of their concerns within AMC as an Alternative Dispute Resolution forum, rather than filing a protest with the Government Accountability Office (GAO) or other external forum. Contract award or performance is suspended during the protest to the same extent, and within the same time periods, as if filed at the GAO.

The AMC protest decision goal is to resolve protests within 35 calendar days from filing. To be timely, protests must be filed within the periods specified in FAR 33.103.
