3.2.2.3 Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI):
Some programs under this IDIQ contract may require personnel to have access to Sensitive
Compartmented Information (SCI), SCI is an access determination based on need to access intelligence information in which classified national intelligence information concerning or derived from intelligence sources, methods, or analytical processes are required to be handled within formal access control systems established by the Director of National
Intelligence (DNI). Under DoD Instructions 5200.01 “DoD Information Security Program and
Protection of Sensitive Compartmented Information”. Personnel requiring access to SCI will be identified at the Task Order level, if applicable.
The SCI designation is an add-on, not a special clearance level at a Secret level or Top Secret level. The government also supports access to SCI in which access is determined by need-to-know. These accesses require increased investigative requirements before access is granted and therefore increased lead times may be experienced during the SCI investigative process.
Individuals with a security clearance may be “read into” SCI as a part of their job requirement and receive explicit permission to access an SCI control system(s). This process may include a polygraph or other approved investigative or adjudicative action. Once it is determined, a person should have access to an SCI control system(s), they sign a nondisclosure agreement, are "read in" or indoctrinated and is recorded in a local access register or in a computer database. Upon termination from a particular SCI control system, the employee is “read out” or debriefed and again signs the nondisclosure agreement.
