(a) The Contractor agrees to –
(1) Comply with the Privacy Act of 1974 (the Act) and the agency rules and regulations issued under the Act in the design, development, or operation of any system of records on individuals to accomplish an agency function when the contract specifically identifies --
(i) The systems of records; and

H-4. SECTION 508 COMPLIANCE. Section 508 is a part of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 which requires that electronic and information technology (EIT) developed, procured, maintained, or used by the Federal government be accessible to people with disabilities. On mailto:David.meeks@navy.mil
August 7, 1998, the President signed into law the Workforce Investment Act of 1998, which includes the Rehabilitation Act Amendments of 1998. Section 508 was originally added to the Rehabilitation Act in 1986; the 1998 amendments significantly expand and strengthen the technology access requirements in Section 508.
Section 508 requires that when Federal agencies develop, procure, maintain, or use electronic and information technology, they shall ensure that the electronic and information technology allows Federal employees with disabilities to have access to and use of information and data that is comparable to the access to and use of information and data by Federal employees who are not individuals with disabilities, unless an undue burden would be imposed on the agency. Section 508 also requires that individuals with disabilities, who are members of the public seeking information or services from a Federal agency, have access to and use of information and data that is comparable to that provided to the public who are not individuals with disabilities, unless an undue burden would be imposed on the agency.
Offerors are required to self-certify that their products or services are in compliance with Section 508 technical standards. Therefore, the offeror is required to submit with its offer a designated area on its website that outlines the Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT) or equivalent qualification, which ultimately becomes the Government Product Accessibility Template (GPAT). The purpose of the VPAT is to assist Federal contracting officials and other buyers in making preliminary assessments regarding the availability of commercial EIT products and services with features that support accessibility.
The Offeror must comply with all required Federal or agency standards as specified in the scope of Work for each Task Order. Section 508, the Federal Information Technology Accessibility Initiative (36 CFR 1194), is incorporated into and made a part of this solicitation. Compliance with the applicable Section 508 standards is a material requirement of this solicitation.
All EIT deliverables resulting from task orders placed against this solicitation, inclusive of electronic documents, must meet all minimum accessibility requirements as well as Section 508 technical standards at a minimum. The offeror must reference the Section 508 technical standards below as a resource for meeting compliance of deliverables:
1194.21 Software applications and operating systems
1194.22 Web-based Intranet and Internet Information and Applications
1194.23 Telecommunications Products

The Online system is to include servers that must comply with DoDI 8500.2 which is available from: http://www.dtic.mil/whs/directives/corres/pdf/850002p.pdf .
With these responsibilities contractors should ensure that their employees:
Safeguard DON information to which their employees have access at all times. Obtain DON management's written approval prior to taking any DON sensitive information away from the office. The DON manager's approval must identify the business necessity for removing such information from the DON facility.
