Question:

Under the Submission Requirements for Criterion 2 - Professional Qualifications -- (SF 330, Part I, Sections E and G), you request indication of whether the key personnel hold a security clearance and if so what level. Some of our subconsultant A-E firms are concerned with providing this information since our submittal is not a “secure” document. Can you please clarify. Would it be acceptable to generalize a statement indicating # of personnel on the team with various levels of security clearance but not identifying by name which have which levels.

Answer:

Synopsis will be revised to indicated that personnel will need the ability to obtain a secret clearance.
