Contractor personnel shall comply with all local base/installation security procedures required to gain access to US Government facilities. All contractor equipment, personnel and vehicles are subject to inspection and search by US government security officials (or designated representatives) upon entry to any government owned and/or operated installations and facilities.

7.2 Base Vehicle Passes.

a. Base vehicle passes are required for all contractor employees privately owned vehicles requiring access to Government facilities for the performance of this contract. The methodology for obtaining varies from one installation to another, therefore; the contractor will coordinate with the GTPOC to gain access to the base facilities to complete the work assigned under this contract.

b. A new pass system will be implemented no later than 31 October 2011. Further information can be found at http://www.rapidgate.com/ , this system will allow a Vendor for a fee to obtain a yearly pass. The option will still be available once implemented to obtain a daily pass from the pass office without paying a fee.

7.4 Access to Government Facilities. Government facilities will be made available to the contractor. Scheduling and access to facility will be coordinated through the GTPOC.

7.5 BASE ACCESS – DELIVERY

The vendor is responsible for understanding and adhering to all base access policies when gaining access to SUBASE New London for delivery purposes. Failure to follow the security policies and protocols on the part of the delivery driver will result in denial of base access. Denial of base access that results in additional costs or shipping delays will be at the expense of the vendor and will be at no additional cost to the government.

7.6 ACCESS TO GOVERNMENT FACILITIES

Government facilities will be made available to the vendor. Scheduling and access to facility will be coordinated through the GTPOC.

"Commander, Navy Installations Command (CNIC), has established the Navy Commercial Access Control System (NCACS), a standardized process for granting unescorted access privileges to vendors, contractors, suppliers and service providers not otherwise entitled to the issuance of a Common Access Card (CAC) who seek access to and can provide justification to enter Navy installations and facilities. Visiting vendors may obtain daily passes directly from the individual Navy installations by submitting identification credentials for verification and undergoing a criminal screening/ background check. Alternatively, if the vendor so chooses, it may voluntarily elect to obtain long-term credentials through enrollment, registration, background vetting, screening, issuance of credentials, and electronic validation of credentials at its own cost through one of the designated independent contractor NCACS service providers. Credentials will be issued every five years and access privileges will be reviewed and or renewed on an annual basis. The costs incurred to obtain Navy installation access of any kind are not reimbursable, and the price(s) paid for obtaining long-term NCACS credentials will not be approved as a direct cost of this contract.

Further information regarding NCACS can be found at http://cnic.navy.mil/CNIC_HQ_Site/index.htm See "Popular Links"
