Note: The Government applied the "Primary Purpose" test under FAR 37.101 in determining that this particular procurement involves primarily services directly relating to naval vessel repair. In accordance with 10 U.S.C. Section 7299, a contract for the repair of a naval vessel is subject to 41 U.S.C. Chapter 65. Under 41 U.S.C. Section 6702(b)(2) and FAR 22.1003-3(b), the provisions of 41 U.S.C. Chapter 67, the Service Contract Labor Standards (formerly known as the Service Contract Act of 1965) do not apply to any work required to be done in accordance with 41 U.S.C. Chapter 65. Therefore, the wage determination process under the Service Contract Labor Standards statute is not applicable, and the minimum wage specified in the Fair Labor Standards Act (29 U.S.C. Section 206(e)(1)) is applicable. (See FAR 22.1002-4.)

7.2 DBIDS: Commander, Navy Installations Command (CNIC), has established the Defense Biometric Identification System (DBIDS), 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. Individuals currently using a Navy Commercial Access Control System (NCACS) credential for installation access are required to switch to a DBIDS credential no later than 14 August 2017. There are no fees incurred by the contractor, vendor, or supplier to obtain a DBIDS credential.

Credentials will be issued every five years and access privileges will be reviewed / renewed on an annual basis.
