N3904025Q4656_ Enclosure 2-OPSEC.pdf

This document is an Operations Security (OPSEC) Contract Requirements form for the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, which outlines critical security protocols for contractors. The document defines OPSEC as a process to protect sensitive information from exploitation, requiring contractors to avoid inadvertent disclosure of classified or unclassified information during the contract period. Key requirements include preventing disclosure of Critical Information and Indicators (CII), protecting Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), and implementing strict guidelines for handling sensitive data.

The document provides detailed guidelines for contractors, including prohibitions on publicizing government CII, restrictions on electronic device usage, and specific countermeasures for protecting sensitive information. Contractors must not post sensitive information on websites or social media, must shred documents with approved NSA cross-cut shredders, remove badges upon contract completion, and immediately report any unauthorized information disclosures. Failure to comply can result in criminal prosecution and imposition of penalties. The form is part of a solicitation for Z-Block Flame Retardant Fabric, with a response deadline of 12 June 2025 and a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 314999.
