Contractor BAVR Badging Instructions.pdf

This document is a set of contractor instructions for completing the Base Access Visitor Request (BAVR) process to obtain Defense Biometric Identification System (DBIDS) credentials for access to Naval installations in the Pacific Northwest, specifically Naval Base Kitsap (NBK).

Contractors must submit BAVR applications through designated online portals (https://bavr.enic.navy.mil/ or https://bavrw.cnic.navy.mil) with a processing timeframe of 3-7 business days. All required fields marked in red must be completed accurately with personal information, driver's license details, home address, work information, sponsor/point of contact information, and visit details including purpose, start date, and end date. Critical information requirements include designating personnel type as "Contractor," specifying the command being visited as "NAVSEA Keyport," providing the full company name, and indicating the area of access needed using number/letter codes (B8 for NBK gate access or B9 for NBK gate and Bangor Operational Area gate access for Lower Base Bangor projects). Contractors must include their contract or purchase order number and the type of work to be performed in the "Purpose of Visit" field. False, incomplete, or inaccurate information will result in application rejection and delayed access. Following BAVR approval and US citizenship validation via passport or birth certificate review, NBK will issue a DBIDS credential for gate access. Additional inquiries regarding the BAVR process should be directed to Naval Base Kitsap at 360-396-2583 or 360-396-2585, or to the contractor's Keyport sponsor.
