About this file
This is a training briefing document for the iWATCH Army program, designed for Department of Army (DA) civilians and contractors working on Army contracts. The training is mandatory for all contractors and associated subcontractors and must be completed within 30 calendar days of contract award, with new employees required to complete it within 5 calendar days of commencing work. Training results must be documented using the Certificate of Completion provided and reported to the Contract Officer Representative (COR).
The iWATCH Army program is a nation-wide initiative that combines passive situational awareness with active reporting of suspicious activity or behavior potentially associated with terrorist activities. The training covers specific indicators of suspicious activity including individuals photographing security infrastructure, multiple sightings of the same suspicious person or vehicle, individuals loitering at transportation stops, people wearing inappropriate attire for the location, individuals sitting in parked vehicles for extended periods, unattended packages or briefcases, vehicles parked in no-parking zones, people in restricted areas without authorization, unusual chemical smells or fumes, and individuals purchasing bomb-making supplies or weapons without proper credentials. Employees are instructed to report suspicious activity immediately to the Fort Bliss Military Police (915-744-2115), local law enforcement, military police, security forces, their chain of command, Army Counterintelligence, or the Contracting Officer Representative. Follow-up written reports should use the Suspicious Activity Report (SAR) form and include descriptions of vehicles, detailed accounts of observations, and photographs if available. Subversion, espionage, or sabotage should be reported to the Fort Bliss Army Counterintelligence Field Office (568-5193). Additional resources are available through the Army OneSource website at myarmyonesource.com.
