Installation Executive Director is responsible for implementing the proper response to progressive levels of terrorist and health threats. FPCONs and HPCONs are normally displayed at entrance gates, building entrances, and office entrances. The contractor shall adhere to and operate in accordance with any restrictions imposed as a result of a FPCON or HPCON.

Measures implemented under the various levels of threat may impact the contractor’s normal operational approach to services. The contractor shall ensure that services are sustained during heightened security measures.

12.4.3 Reporting Requirements. As may be applicable, the Contractor shall report to the

Security Directorate and/or COR any information or circumstances of which they are aware that may pose a threat to the security and/or safety of DoD personnel, contractor personnel, resources, and classified or unclassified defense information. Additionally, the contractor shall report any incident of sexual assault or sexual harassment involving any Contractor personnel.

12.4.4 Authorized Visitor Control. Contractor representatives on official business related to the contract shall have the visit coordinated by the COR to gain access to the installation access control. All planned visits shall be scheduled at least three (3) business days in advance. Once on-site, the representative shall obtain a visitor security badge from the Security Directorate and an appropriate escort will be provided to destination.

12.4.5 Temporary Removal of Personnel Posing an Imminent Threat. The DMA-HQ Chief, Security or designated representative, in consultation with the program manager, may remove any individual from duty who poses an imminent threat to himself or herself, safety of personnel, or Government resources. The Contractor will be notified as soon as possible of the action taken.

The temporary removal will last until the incident prompting removal has been resolved to the satisfaction of the Government. Once the incident has been resolved, the individual will either be allowed to return to work on the contract or prohibited from performance on the contract, as the

Government deems appropriate. Temporary removal of personnel does not relieve the contractor of any performance requirements.

CONTRACT CLOSEOUT

CONTRACT/ORDER CLOSEOUT—FIXED-PRICE, TIME-AND-MATERIALS,

OR LABOR-HOURS

Timely contract closeout is a priority under this contract/order. The Contractor shall submit a final invoice within ninety (90) calendar days after the expiration of this contract/order, unless the Contractor requests and is granted an extension by the Contracting Officer, in writing. In addition, and concurrent with the submission of the final invoice, the Contractor shall notify the

Contracting Officer of the amount of excess funds that can be de-obligated from this contract/order so the closeout process can begin as soon as possible upon expiration of this contract/order. A bilateral contract/order closeout modification will be forwarded to the

Contractor by the Contracting Officer and must be signed by the Contractor and returned to the

Contracting Officer within thirty (30) calendar days of issuance of the modification. A

Contractor’s failure to respond and/or sign the bilateral closeout modification within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt will constitute approval of the terms of the modification and the modification will subsequently be processed unilaterally by the Contracting Officer to de-obligate excess funds and close this contract/order.

If this contract/order contains option periods, the Contractor is required to submit an invoice within ninety (90) calendar days after expiration of the base period of performance and the expiration of each exercised option period of performance to allow for deobligation of excess funds that were obligated in those respective periods of performance.
