MCAS YUMA RAPIDGATE

SECURITY REQUIREMENTS - RAPIDGate

Base access requirements and procedures may change during the term of a contract. The contractor shall comply with all changes, and such compliance shall not be grounds for a request for an equitable adjustment or other contract modification.

Contractor and subcontractor employees shall comply with installation rules and regulations, including installation access requirements. The Contractor is responsible for ensuring that each of its subcontractors fully comply with the following requirements, and shall flow down to subcontracts a clause to satisfy this contractual obligation.

The Commanding Officer of each base has broad authority to remove or exclude any person from the military installation to protect personnel and property, to maintain good order and discipline, and to ensure the successful and uninterrupted performance of the Marine Corps mission. In the exercise of this authority, the Commanding Officer may refuse to grant entry or may bar Contractor employees, including employees who have been granted a personal entry pass. Refusal to grant an employee a personal entry pass or debarment of an employee does not relieve the Contractor of the responsibility to continue performance under this contract, and shall not constitute grounds for contractor claim or request for equitable adjustment.

The Contractor’s employees shall observe and comply with all base rules and regulations applicable to contract personnel, including those applicable to the safe operation of vehicles, and shall not be present in locations not required for the proper performance of this contract.

Contractor personnel performing work under this contract shall be readily identifiable as an employee of the contractor either through the use of uniforms or with nametags, as directed by the Contracting Officer. Any alternate methods of ensuring contractor personnel are readily identifiable must be approved in advance by the Contracting Officer.

Contractor personnel and equipment entering a military installation are subject to security checks. Contractor personnel shall follow any direction given by Military Police or other security or safety personnel.

Business Passes or Employee Credentials:

The Contractor is responsible for providing information required to obtain clearances, permits, passes, security badges, or employee credentials required for Contractor personnel or equipment access. This includes information required for police or background checks or investigations.

The Contractor is responsible for ensuring such clearances, permits, passes, security badges, or employee credentials are immediately returned to the issuing activity upon termination of an employee, completion of a project, or termination of a contract or subcontract.

All Contractor personnel performing work under this contract who require access to military installations shall obtain whatever personal entry or vehicle passes are required for access to that installation. The procedures below are the current installation access requirements for Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) Yuma and are provided for information only. The Contractor is responsible for ascertaining and complying with all currently installation access requirements throughout all performance periods under this contract.

1. The Contractor shall obtain a letter of support from the customer that their contract ultimately supports.

The letter of support will identify the Company Name, Contract Number, period of performance of the Contract, location of performance, Driver's license and expiration date of each of the Contractor’s employees, and point of contact information for the customer that signed the request. The Contractor’s employees will take the letter of support to request a business pass to the Pass and Registration Office located in Building 952 just inside the main gate.

4. The RAPIDGate program is a Contractor-managed credentials issuance service for vendors, contractors and subcontractors, suppliers, and service providers which includes company enrollment, installation sponsorship verification, employee registration, employment status validation, identity authentication, background screening, biometric verification, and issuance of a long-term access credential.

e. The Contractor will be notified in writing if there is a disqualifying event that prevents the Contractor’s employee from obtaining a CAC. If temporary access was granted, it will immediately be revoked.

f. The information required to initiate a background investigation through OPM, as well as a listing of the forms that are required, is contained at the following website:

https://www.opm.gov/investigations/background-investigations/
