Section C - Description/Specification/Work Statement
Title: Import Permit Program – DSAT – COVID-19 Response
C.1 BACKGROUND
The Division of Select Agents and Toxins contains the Import Permit Program (IPP). Section 361 of the Public Health Service Act (PHS Act) (42 U.S.C. 264) provides the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) with the authority to make and enforce regulations to regulate infectious biological agents, infectious substances, and vectors of human disease to prevent the introduction, transmission, and spread of communicable diseases from foreign countries into the United States (including its possessions) and from one state or possession into another. Section 361 of the PHS Act also provides authority for the HHS Secretary to conduct inspections for purposes of carrying out and enforcing such regulations.
HHS delegated to CDC’s Division of Select Agents and Toxins (DSAT) regulatory (42 CFR Part 71.54; Import regulations for infectious biological agents, infectious substances, and vectors) responsibility of importation of infectious biological agents, infectious substances, and/or vectors which affect human health in the United States.
CDC’s Import Permit Program ensures laboratories importing infectious biological agents into the United States have appropriate biosafety measures to prevent introduction or spread of these biological agents by providing the following critical capabilities (not all inclusive):
• The ability to monitor and control importation of exotic agents and/or vectors of human disease into the U.S by providing import permits;
• The ability to perform risk-based inspections of the importer facilities to ensure sufficient biosafety measures are in place to work safely with the imported infectious biological agents, hosts, and vectors.
IPP is currently supporting the COVID-19 Response and the current system does not meet the required need. This Task Order is to provide development support to modify and enhance the current system in order to meet the urgent rising needs for the Import Permit Program in association with the COVID-19 Response.
C.2 PURPOSE
The purpose of this task order is to support one primary task and one optional task in support the COVID-19 Response:
Task 1: Common Inspection Application
Task 2 is an optional task that may be exercised during the 12-month period of performance.
Both tasks are in association with the electronic Import Permit Program System (eIPP)
C.3 SCOPE OF WORK
The contractor shall provide development support to modify and enhance the current Import Permit Program system in order to meet the urgent rising needs for the Import Permit Program in association with the COVID-19 Response.
C.4 MINIMUM VENDOR QUALIFICATIONS
The contractor shall be a Microsoft Premier Support Services authorized partner/reseller.
C.5 TASKS TO BE PERFORMED
Task 1: Common Inspection Application
In order to support the needs of the COVID-19 Response, this Task Order is to build a common inspection application, which shall be re-platforming and simplification of the existing inspections module on eFSAP, able to host multiple CDC organizations data. It shall have these attributes:
1. Users shall be segmented into “Organizations” and each organization shall only be able to view their own data. Example organizations would be “Polio eradication” or “Import Permit Program.”
2. Each organization would be able to do a limited amount of branding and can customize checklist definitions via the common checklist service, but otherwise would share the same processes.
3. The common inspections application would also have a common service API layer. Authentication shall rely on Azure AD and/or SAMS OAUTH.
4. The use of a common platform shall aid in future-proofing potential decisions that may transitions inspections related to COVID-19to be regulated by FSAP rather than IPP regulations.
In addition, the scope of work to be completed shall include the following elements:
1. New table structures to receive data from external source – A separate effort not in scope for this Task Order is building the collection device.
2. API to receive data from device and push most recent versions of incomplete checklists to the device.
3. Ensure encryption of all communications.
4. EPLC compliant documentation.
The following eIPP Modifications to support inspections shall also need to be completed.
1. Technical reviewers can initiate inspections.
2. Technical reviewers can schedule inspections.
3. Technical reviewers can define which checklists to utilize on an inspection.
4. Technical reviewers can complete checklists and save their results in a web interface.
5. Technical reviewers can review all completed checklists prior to releasing information to the inspected facility.
6. Permittees can see scheduled inspections (once/if announced)
7. Permittees can see checklist and inspection results, once released by technical reviewers.
8. Permittees can communicate with technical reviewers about inspection findings.
9. Technical reviewers can update findings with documentation based upon communication with permittees.
10. Technical reviewers can generate an approval letter (pdf) including inspection findings.
11. Technical reviewers can denial letter (pdf) including inspection findings and corrective actions that need to be taken in order to reapply.
12. EIPP users receive relevant notifications of changes in inspection scheduling, status, release and communication.
These capabilities may be hosted within the common inspections platform or within eIPP itself, so long as the user experience is not negatively affected.
Task 2: EIPP Robust Reporting Platform (Optional Task)
While some reporting is available within the current system, it is desired to greatly expand this to include:
1. Operational Data Store (ODS) – this repository allows the application to export its data for use in reporting in a relational database format in such a way as to be end user accessible by tools such as PowerBI or Tableau.
2. Processing of data from the common inspections platform and common checklist service, when built.
3. ETL processes to support load of all data from EIPP to the ODS.
4. Full documentation to include both logical and physical data models.
5. Series of three prebuilt reports as determined by program leadership.
6. Capacity for Ad Hoc reporting.
7. Train the trainer for support staff to be able to self-support the reporting functions going forward.

D. Incident Response
The Federal Information Security Modernization Act (FISMA) defines an incident as “an occurrence that (1) actually or imminently jeopardizes, without lawful authority, the integrity, confidentiality, or availability of information or an information system; or (2) constitutes a violation or imminent threat of violation of law, security policies, security procedures, or acceptable use policies. The HHS Policy for IT Security and Privacy Incident Reporting and Response further defines incidents as events involving cybersecurity and privacy threats, such as viruses, malicious user activity, loss of, unauthorized disclosure or destruction of data, and so on.
A privacy breach is a type of incident and is defined by FISMA as the loss of control, compromise, unauthorized disclosure, unauthorized acquisition, or any similar occurrence where (1) a person other than an authorized user accesses or potentially accesses personally identifiable information or (2) an authorized user accesses or potentially accesses personally identifiable information for an other than authorized purpose.
OMB Memorandum M-17-12, “Preparing for and Responding to a Breach of Personally Identifiable Information” (03 January 2017) states:
Definition of an Incident:
An occurrence that (1) actually or imminently jeopardizes, without lawful authority, the integrity, confidentiality, or availability of information or an information system; or (2) constitutes a violation or imminent threat of violation of law, security policies, security procedures, or acceptable use policies.
Definition of a Breach:
The loss of control, compromise, unauthorized disclosure, unauthorized acquisition, or any similar occurrence where (1) a person other than an authorized user accesses or potentially accesses personally identifiable information or (2) an authorized user accesses or potentially accesses personally identifiable information for an other than authorized purpose.
It further adds:
A breach is not limited to an occurrence where a person other than an authorized user potentially accesses PII by means of a network intrusion, a targeted attack that exploits website vulnerabilities, or an attack executed through an email message or attachment. A breach may also include the loss or theft of physical documents that include PII and portable electronic storage media that store PII, the inadvertent disclosure of PII on a public website, or an oral disclosure of PII to a person who is not authorized to receive that information. It may also include an authorized user accessing PII for any other than authorized purpose.
The HHS Policy for IT Security and Privacy Incident Reporting and Response further defines a breach as “a suspected or confirmed incident involving PII.”
Contracts with entities that collect, maintain, use, or operate Federal information or information systems on behalf of CDC shall include the following requirements:
1) The contractor shall cooperate with and exchange information with CDC officials, as deemed necessary by the CDC Breach Response Team, to report and manage a suspected or confirmed breach.
2) All contractors and subcontractors shall properly encrypt PII in accordance with OMB Circular A-130 and other applicable policies, including CDC-specific policies, and comply with HHS-specific policies for protecting PII. To this end, all contractors and subcontractors shall protect all sensitive information, including any PII created, stored, or transmitted in the performance of this contract so as to avoid a secondary sensitive information incident with FIPS 140-2 validated encryption.
3) All contractors and subcontractors shall participate in regular training on how to identify and report a breach.
4) All contractors and subcontractors shall report a suspected or confirmed breach in any medium as soon as possible and no later than 1 hour of discovery, consistent with applicable CDC IT acquisitions guidance, HHS/CDC and incident management policy, and United States Computer Emergency Readiness Team (US- CERT) notification guidelines.

5) All contractors and subcontractors shall be able to determine what Federal information was or could have been accessed and by whom, construct a timeline of user activity, determine methods and techniques used to access Federal information, and identify the initial attack vector.
6) All contractors and subcontractors shall allow for an inspection, investigation, forensic analysis, and any other action necessary to ensure compliance with HHS/CDC Policy and the HHS/CDC Breach Response Plan and to assist with responding to a breach.
7) Cloud service providers shall use guidance provided in the FedRAMP Incident Communications Procedures when deciding when to report directly to US-CERT first or notify CDC first.
8) Identify roles and responsibilities, in accordance with HHS/CDC Breach Response Policy and the HHS/CDC Breach Response Plan. To this end, the Contractor shall NOT notify affected individuals unless and until so instructed by the Contracting Officer or designated representative. If so instructed by the Contracting Officer or representative, all notifications must be pre-approved by the appropriate CDC officials, consistent with HHS/CDC Breach Response Plan, and the Contractor shall then send CDC-approved notifications to affected individuals.; and,
9) Acknowledge that CDC will not interpret report of a breach, by itself, as conclusive evidence that the contractor or its subcontractor failed to provide adequate safeguards for PII.
E. Position Sensitivity Designations All Contractor (and/or any subcontractor) employees must obtain a background investigation commensurate with their position sensitivity designation that complies with Parts 1400 and 731 of Title 5, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR).
The requiring activity representative, in conjunction with Personnel Security, shall use the OPM Position Sensitivity Designation automated tool (https://www.opm.gov/investigations/) to determine the sensitivity designation for background investigations. After making those determinations, include all applicable position sensitivity designations.

D.3 CDC42.0002 Evaluation of Contractor Performance Utilizing CPARS (Apr 2015)
In accordance with FAR 42.15, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will review and evaluate contract performance. FAR 42.1502 and 42.1503 requires agencies to prepare evaluations of contractor performance and submit them to the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS). The CDC utilizes the Department of Defense (DOD) web-based Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) to prepare and report these contractor performance evaluations. All information contained in these assessments may be used by the Government, within the limitations of FAR 42.15, for future source selections in accordance with FAR 15.304 where past performance is an evaluation factor.
The CPARS system requires a contractor representative to be assigned so that the contractor has appropriate input into the performance evaluation process. The CPARS contractor representative will be given access to CPARS and will be given the opportunity to concur or not-concur with performance evaluations before the evaluations are complete. The CPARS contractor representative will also have the opportunity to add comments to performance evaluations.
The assessment is not subject to the Disputes clause of the contract, nor is it subject to appeal beyond the review and comment procedures described in the guides on the CPARS website. Refer to: www.cpars.gov for details and additional information related to CPARS, CPARS user access, how contract performance assessments are conducted, and how Contractors participate. Access and training for all persons responsible for the preparation and review of performance assessments is also available at the CPARS website.
The contractor must provide the CDC contracting office with the name, e-mail address, and phone number of their designated CPARS representative who will be responsible for logging into CPARS and reviewing and commenting on performance evaluations. The contractor must maintain a current representative to serve as the contractor representative in CPARS. It is the contractor’s responsibility to notify the CDC contracting office, in writing (letter or email), when their CPARS representative information needs to be changed or updated. Failure to maintain current CPARS contractor representative information will result in the loss of an opportunity to review and comment on performance evaluations.
