This notification does not relieve the Contractor of its obligation to meet the delivery and/or performance schedule of this task order nor should this notification be construed as a waiver by the FEC of any delivery schedule or date, or any rights or remedies provided under this task order.

I. Identification Badges: The FEC Contracting Officer's Technical Representative (COTR) shall ensure that all vendor personnel are issued proper building access/contractor identification badges.

2) Applicability: The procedures in this section shall apply to all individuals fulfilling any of the requirements set forth in this contract.

B. Procedures: If the contract requires the contractor and/or any subcontractor to be onsite at the headquarters FEC location or one of its contingent locations for a period of thirty-days or more the contractor will follow the procedures outlined within the following guidance unless as determined by the FEC Human Resource’s Office they can be exempted. The COTR shall provide each such individual with a copy of the procedures set in this section before or at the time that such individual applies for clearance.

1) Fingerprinting and Forms submission: Each individual employed or otherwise retained by the Contractor to perform work under this contract shall be fingerprinted at the FEC's Human Resources Office, and shall also submit to the Contracting Officer's Technical Representative (“COTR”) one completed Optional Form (“OF”) 306 (“Declaration for Federal Employment,” answer Questions 1,7-12, 15, and 16a only). The Contractor shall be responsible for all costs associated with completing the forms required by the FEC's Human Resources Office. Completed forms shall be submitted to the COTR, without alteration or changes to said forms, at least 10 working days before the individual may begin work or be given access to any agency records, data, or information in connection with this contract.

Contractor processing occurs on Wednesdays only. Contractor employees may begin work on days other than Wednesdays but will not be issued contractor badges nor will be granted unlimited access to FEC facilities and systems.

2) Additional Forms: In addition to the above forms, individuals employed or retained by the Contractor to fulfill contract positions or duties for 180 days or more, and any individual designated to fulfill certain sensitive contract positions or duties as determined by the FEC’s Human Resources Office, shall be required to submit to the COTR, one SF85 or SF85P (and any additional investigative forms) based on a risk determination by the FEC Human Resources Office that shall take into account the sensitivity level of the contract position or duties assigned to the individual, the individual’s access, if any, to nonpublic or confidential information, and any other relevant considerations. The individual must submit these additional forms to the COTR at least 5 working days before such individual is scheduled to start work or to obtain access to agency records, data, or information under the contract.

3) Background investigations: The FEC Human Resources Office shall screen all forms for any adverse or derogatory information, as denoted, for example, by a “yes” to questions 8-12, by additional information in Block 15 on the OF306, or by information on any additional forms that may be required, as discussed above. If the individual has any adverse or derogatory information, the FEC shall conduct a background investigation before s/he is permitted to begin work or be given access to agency records, data, or information under this contract. The background investigation may be conducted in cooperation with or with the assistance of other relevant government agencies or entities, including, but not limited to, OPM, including referral to appropriate law enforcement authorities in the event of material falsification or other evidence of unlawful conduct. To the extent agency records pertaining to these background investigations are subject to the Privacy Act, such records shall be maintained and used in accordance with the applicable Privacy Act system notice(s) pertaining to the agency’s personnel background investigations. (Note: Neither the maintenance of such records in the above-described system(s), nor the fact that this contract requires individuals to complete certain forms or submit to background investigations that may also apply to FEC employees, shall be deemed to render such an individual a Government or FEC employee in any manner).

If, as a result of a background investigation, significant adverse or derogatory information is found that may result in a unsuitability determination, the FEC Human Resources Office shall notify the COTR and the relevant individual. The individual will be notified in writing (Statement of Reasons) of the derogatory information and shall have 30 days to respond or dispute the results of the investigation.

If the FEC Human Resources Office, after receiving the individual’s response, still determines that the individual is unsuitable to fulfill the contract position or duties in question, the individual will be notified in writing of that final determination and disqualification.

4) Suitability Determinations: The Government shall have and exercise full and complete control over these suitability determinations. The Government may, as it deems appropriate, authorize and grant temporary access and/or interim clearance to employees of the Contractor. However, the granting of temporary access and/or interim clearance to any such individual shall not be considered as assurance that a fully favorable suitability determination will follow as a result or condition thereof, and the granting of either temporary access and/or interim clearance shall in no way prevent, preclude or bar the withdrawal or termination of any such access or clearance by the Government. Failure of an individual to follow the required procedures by this contract may result in suspension/termination of such individual’s FEC clearance/access.

Special attention should be paid to OMB Memorandum 06-19 (July 12, 2006), particularly the extremely urgent reporting time frames included therein for certain breaches, as well as to any other subsequent laws, regulations, or policy governing data breaches that may arise during the performance of the contract.

16. ORGANIZATONAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST (OCI): If the contractor is aware, or becomes aware during the period of performance of this contract, of any facts that might create an actual or potential conflict of interest, the contractor shall immediately provide a detailed disclosure of such facts to the COTR and the Contracting Officer.

If such a plan is requested, continued performance under this contract may be conditional upon the Contracting Officer’s approval of the plan. If approved by the Contracting Officer, the conflict of interest avoidance or mitigation plan shall be deemed incorporated into this contract, pursuant to this provision. This provision shall be included in any teaming or subcontract agreements with respect to work performed under this contract.

17. ACCESS TO DATA: The contractor shall have access to the information and individuals necessary to conduct the work outlined within the contract agreement. Should the contractor encounter excessive delays in getting access to data, the circumstances should be brought to the attention of the COTR for immediate resolution.
