Part 6: ADMINISTRATIVE REQUIREMENTS

6.1 Clearances

All contractor proposed personnel shall be eligible to obtain and maintain the appropriate security clearances, on or before the proposal due date. Contractor personnel assigned to this task and working (assigned desk space) within the ODASD(E) office space shall be eligible to obtain and maintain the applicable clearance for the billet (e.g. a

Risk Management Analyst must have an active TS clearance and must be SCI eligible) and, if eligibility to obtain a

TS clearance is not required for the position, which in this PWS is only the Policy Analyst, that contractor employee must be eligible to obtain and maintain a SECRET clearance.

SCI(eligible) must possess a Top Secret clearance-SCI(eligible) within six months of the contract award. If at the end of the six months, any personnel have not been granted the appropriate clearance at the required level, then the contractor is required to provide acceptable replacements who already possess the requisite clearance and meet all other PWS requirements, at the sole discretion of the government, and at the contractor’s expense. This replacement requirement applies notwithstanding any Government delay in processing the clearance. The Contractor shall have the capability to transport classified information to and from their corporate offices and store classified materials up to SECRET level at their off-site office spaces, as well as have access to secure voice capability compatible with current DoD secure voice systems.
