NOTE: Please read the following as it applies to new access requirements being implemented on 01 October 2011

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 a designated independent contractor NCACS service provider. Credentials will be issued every five years and access privileges will be reviewed/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 (under "Popular Links").

PICKUP/REMOVAL OF RENTAL UNITS:

Unless otherwise notified by NAVSEA Service Contracts Division, Norfolk Naval Shipyard, Code 410, rental/lease unit(s) shall be picked-up (removed) by Contractor on the morning after expiration of the established contract period of performance. In the event that this date occurs on a Saturday, Sunday, or a recognized Federal Holiday, the contractor may make the appropriate arrangements to pick-up the equipment on the first working day following the expiration of the contract at no additional cost to the Government.
