7.0 Security / Trustworthiness Requirements

7.1 Purpose. Reference is hereby made to Marine Corps awarded contracts requiring contractor access to Department of Navy information systems, sensitive unclassified information or areas critical to the operations of the command. Although these contracts are not classified and therefore contractor employees are not required to have obtained a National Agency Check (NAC) trustworthiness determination, the Department of the Navy (DoN) has determined that all DON information systems are sensitive regardless of whether the information is classified or unclassified. Contractors whose work involves access to sensitive unclassified information warrant a judgment of an employee’s trustworthiness. Therefore, all personnel accessing DON computer systems must undergo a National Agency Check to verify their trustworthiness. Also, Commands will include Facility Access Determination (FAD) program requirements in the contract specifications when trustworthiness determinations will be required on the contractor employees. Each contractor employee to be authorized access to Marine Corps IT networks under Section 6.6 of this PWS shall have a favorably completed NAC. In order to receive a Common Access Card, each contractor employee will have favorable fingerprints and a valid background investigation of NACI. If the position is non-sensitive a NACI investigation is required. If the position is non-critical sensitive then a NACLC investigation is required. If contractor personnel currently have a favorable adjudicated NAC, the contractor will notify the Security Manager of the Command they will visit utilizing OPNAV 5521/27 Visits Request form. The visit request has to be submitted on letterhead of the Contracting Company or completed in JPAS. The visit request will be renewed annually or for the duration of the contract if less than one year. If no previous investigation exists the contractor personnel will complete the requirement for a Trustworthiness NAC.

7.2 Foreign Nationals. In accordance with NAVSUPINST 5239.1A, if the Contractor employee is a Foreign National, prior approval of the Network Security Officer (NSO) is required. Access may be granted to Foreign Nationals who have a need to know and at least one of the following applies:

7.2.1 Foreign National is employed by DOD, or

7.2.2 Foreign National possesses a current Functional Accreditation approved by the Navy International Program Office (NAVIPO), or

7.2.3 Foreign National possesses a current Visit Request Form (OPNAV 5521/27 (1-73) as defined in OPNAVINST 5510.1H), which is on file with the requesting activity.

7.3. Trustworthiness. The Trustworthiness NAC is processed through the command Security Manager. The NAC will be processed through the use of the E-QIP. The E-QIP software can be downloaded at the Defense Security Service (DSS) website http://www.dss.mil/epsq/index.htm. The contractor should provide the completed E-QIP electronically (electronic mail/diskette) to the Command Security Manager along with the original signed release statements and two applicant fingerprint cards (FD 258). The responsibility for providing the fingerprint cards rests with the contractor. The Security Manager will review the form for completeness, accuracy and suitability issues. The completed SF 85P along with attachments will be forwarded to (DSS) who will conduct the NAC.

7.4. Investigations. The Department of Defense Central Adjudication Facility will provide the completed investigation to the requesting command security manager for the trustworthiness determination. The command will provide written notification to the contractor advising whether or not the contractor employee will be admitted to command areas or be provided access to unclassified but sensitive business information.

7.4.1. Trustworthiness determinations are the sole prerogative of the commanding officer of the sponsor activity. If the commanding officer determines, upon review of the investigation, that allowing a person to perform certain duties or access to certain areas, would pose an unacceptable risk, that decision is final. No due process procedures are required.

7.5. Contractor Responsibility. The contractor employee shall take all lawful steps available to ensure that information provided or generated pursuant to this arrangement is protected from further disclosure unless the agency provides written consent to such disclosure.

8.0 Personnel and Security Requirements

Only US citizen Contractor personnel may be authorized to access Government information technology (IT) systems directly or indirectly. Contractor personnel must receive authorization coordinated through the Navy/Marine Corps Installation or Installation Safety Manager and complete the security requirements outlined in the Security Clause above, before access to any government IT systems.

The Contractor is responsible for ensuring that the Contract personnel performing work under this PWS display the appropriate photo-identification badges at all times they are on-duty on any installation or on any Federal property. Neglect to display the photo-identification badge may result in an unsuitability determination and a security escort off the installation.

Upon contract employee termination, resignation or the end of the contract life, the Contractor is responsible for returning all Government identification, Common Access Card, building passes, keys, and other Government property that was issued to Contract personnel or the Contractor.

The requirements are applicable to all subcontractors who will work at the Governments facilities.

9.0 Quality Surveillance and Performance Standards

The Government will conduct quality surveillance in accordance with the Performance Requirements Summary (PRS) in paragraph 13.0 below. Contractor performance will be measured against the specific standards and metrics identified in the PRS. The Marine Corps will establish respective quality assurance surveillance plans to track timeliness of training delivered and identify training backlogs. The PRS will establish standards for evaluating the reports required under Section 4.5 of this PWS.

10.0 Travel Requirements
