This file is a Questions and Answers document addressing security clearance requirements for the 1/75 Drone Filming solicitation. The document clarifies that all parties, including the prime contractor and any subcontractors, must possess a SECRET Facility Security Clearance before award and prior to commencement of performance. All deployed personnel must already hold valid SECRET clearances, with verification to be completed before contract award. The responses indicate that a teaming arrangement is not acceptable as a workaround—if the prime contractor lacks a facility clearance, the arrangement would still be non-compliant, as all parties must independently possess the required clearance. Additionally, the Q&A confirms that the completed DD Form 254 (Technical Exhibit 6), which was included as a placeholder in the Performance Work Statement, will be provided before the time of award. These clarifications are critical for potential contractors evaluating their eligibility to bid on this aerial video capture and tactical playback support contract for military training operations.
