Vehicle permits will expire upon termination date of this contract/order, expiration of an individual base pass or DBIDS ID, expiration of vehicle inspection sticker, or termination of their employment (whichever occurs first).

6.8.1.3. Insurance. Vehicle permitting procedures require that all vehicles, personal or corporate, must be properly inspected and insured in accordance with Japanese Compulsory Insurance (JCI) requirements.

The contractor shall therefore ensure all necessary actions are taken to obtain such access by its personnel in time to affect access in accordance with the requirements of the PWS and POP. Failure to complete such actions in a timely manner, some of which may occur prior to the POP or individual mobilization/relocation to the place of performance, shall not constitute excusable delay. Upon request, the Contracting Officer will provide a ‘check-in’ sheet that summarizes required actions.

All personnel to be issued CAC must meet eligibility and suitability criteria as specified in the references; accordingly, the vetting procedures and required personnel actions may often begin well before the contract/order POP. The contractor and its employees and/or subcontractors are responsible for ensuring timely action and suitability to obtain CACs, and any resultant access issues from non-compliance shall not constitute excusable delay.

The Contractor shall submit a listing of employees terminated under this contract to the Contracting Officer within seven (7) days of the effective date of termination.

6.8.2.4. Status of Forces Agreement. Possession of a CAC or other credential does not, alone, determine the legal status of personnel performing under this contract. Additionally, unless specifically identified on the CAC, the credential does not necessarily authorize logistical support privileges such as commissary/exchange access. The individual status of personnel performing under this contract, and the privileges authorized, are governed in accordance with United States Force Japan Instructions (predominantly USFJI 64-100), applicable credentialing regulations, and the information prescribed via DFARS clauses regarding Contractor Personnel in Japan, as contained herein.

In the event keys are lost or unauthorized duplication occurs through the fault of a Contractor employee, The Government may, at its option, require the Contractor to replace keys, reimburse the government for replacement of locks, or re-key as a result of Contractor losing keys.
