Such environmental impacts include air, soil, wetlands, water, flora, fauna, endangered species, emissions and toxic waste resulting from development, maintenance (coatings and primers), operation, disposal, etc.

3.8.3 Configuration Management

3.8.3.1 Configuration Management Process (CDRL A005)

The Contractor shall maintain a configuration management (CM) process for the control of all MBP configuration documentation, media and parts representing or comprising the MBP. The principles contained in EIA-649 and MIL-HDBK-61 may be used for guidance. The Contractor's CM process shall consist of configuration identification, configuration control, configuration status accounting, and configuration audits.

Consideration for interfacing with other acquisition requirements such as design review, quality assurance, and other program related disciplines shall be addressed. The Contractor shall notify the Government of any changes at the Contractor's facility, which affect the Contractor's established CM process.

3.8.3.2 Configuration Identification (CDRL A005)

At the Post Award Conference, the Contractor shall propose Configuration Items (CIs) to be managed by the Government and those to be managed by the Contractor at a lower level/tier. For those CIs that have been identified for Government control, the Contractor shall provide form, fit, function, and interface documentation necessary for configuration status accounting. The Contractor shall establish management practices for those lower level/tier CIs.

3.8.3.3 Configuration Status Accounting (CDRL A005)

The Contractor shall establish and maintain a Configuration Status Accounting (CSA) database, which represents the configurations of the MBP. All baselines and changes shall be documented in the Contractor’s CSA database. The Contractor's CSA database shall permit acceptance of commercial product information; however, if requirements to report data outside of the Contractor's CSA database or format exist, the information may be delivered as a supplement to prevent disruption to their existing system. The Contractor's CSA database shall reconcile any differences between the supplier information and Contractor practices to provide the Government with clear accountability of product information. Additionally, the CSA database shall provide a reliable source of configuration information to support test activities, including program management, systems engineering, logistics support, and modification/maintenance actions. The Government may request a report from the CSA database as needed.

3.8.4 Physical Configuration Audit Report (CDRL A006)

The Physical Configuration Audit (PCA) shall be performed to verify the MBP and its configuration items (CIs) are accurate, complete, compatible, and that the CI has achieved the performance and functional characteristics defined in the functional configuration baseline. The Government and the Contractor shall conduct the PCA jointly, at a time and place mutually agreed upon, with the Government chairing the audit. The PCA shall verify the drawings reflect the "as-built" configuration of all newly developed or modified portions of the system; accurate form, fit, function information is provided on control drawings for non-developmental/commercial off-the-shelf items; and confirm the drawings accurately represent the "as-built" production configuration.

Whenever possible, the PCA shall be conducted incrementally, concurrent with hardware fabrication and assembly of the first production MBP. The Contractor shall provide an approach and proposed schedule for conducting the PCA and identification of the CIs to be audited at first article production. The Contractor shall participate and assist the Government in the development of the PCA, using the guidelines contained in MIL-HDBK-61A, section 8. The Contractor shall document the results of the PCA after each audit and shall correct all audit discrepancies documented in the configuration audit summary reports. In the event the Government finds evidence the drawings and/or documents do not adequately represent the equipment, the Government reserves the right to stop production until all discrepancies are corrected and the Government approves the configuration audit summary report. The product baseline will be established upon completion of the PCA and resolution of audit discrepancies.

3.8.5 Configuration Control

The Contractor shall implement configuration control methods and procedures which maintain the integrity and traceability of an established baseline. Changes to established baselines shall only be made after Government approval of Engineering Change Proposals (ECP) and Requests for Variance (RFV). Sufficient supporting data to evaluate the proposed change, such as drawings, supplemental drawings, sketches, specifications, or manufacturer's data sheets, shall be submitted with ECP's and RFV's. Changes shall be identified to the affected assembly serial number, or if not part of an assembly, to the affected equipment serial number. The Contractor's configuration control process shall be available for Government review. ECP, deviations, or revisions may require a new FAT. Nearly all changes to the MBP shall require a new FAT. FAT determination will be made on a case by case basis.

3.8.5.1 Engineering Change Proposals (CDRL A007)

Engineering Change Proposals (ECP) shall be submitted by the Contractor, and shall be limited to those which are necessary or offer benefit to the Government. MIL-HDBK-61A, Section 6.2, provides guidance concerning the classification of ECP’s. The Government will review each ECP upon receipt and notify the Contractor in writing of approval/disapproval. Major engineering changes prior to the establishment of the product baseline shall be approved by the Program Office and Contracting Officer at In-Process Reviews (IPR).

Technologies that reduce the overall system weight (without degradation of other performance characteristics), and/or increases performance, durability, and service life are a priority.

3.8.5.2 Requests for Variance (CDRL A008)

The Contractor shall process Requests for Variance (RFV) from current approved configuration documentation. Authorized deviations are a temporary departure from the requirements and do not constitute a change in an approved baseline. Submission of recurring deviations is discouraged and shall be minimized. Where it is determined that a change should be permanent, the Contractor shall process an ECP. MIL- STD-3046 provides guidance concerning the classification of RFVs.

3.8.5.3 Notices of Revision (CDRL A009)

The Contractor shall generate and submit Notices of Revision (NOR) concurrently with ECPs when technical documentation controlled by another Contractor or Government agency requires changes following approval of an ECP.

3.8.6 Engineering Drawings (CDRL A010)

The Contractor shall develop a complete product drawing package and provide it to the

Government at FAT or with any approved ECP after FAT. This process may require the revision and update of existing drawings, and/or development of new drawings to meet the requirements of product drawings/models and associated lists. Revised and newly created drawings shall be developed to document any design change and shall reflect all changes resulting from Government approved ECPs. Existing, revised, and new product drawings and associated lists shall be used as the engineering data for procuring, controlling, and using materials, parts, and assemblies whether produced in-house or supplied by the Contractor. The drawings shall be used for the assembly, provisioning, inspection, testing, and configuration management of the materials, parts, modules, subassemblies, and assemblies of the equipment covered under this contract. The product drawings shall also include control drawings for all commercial off the shelf (COTS) items that do not conform to recognized Government or industry specifications, non-developmental items (NDI) and items developed at private expense for which the Government had not acquired unlimited rights. These control drawings shall provide the applicable performance specification of form, fit, and function and provide interface information needed for competitive re-procurement of that item or an interchangeable item. New product drawings/models shall conform to ASME Y14.100 and ASME Y14.34.

3.8.7 Test and Evaluation (CDRL A011)

First Article Test approval remains in effect and production may continue unless:

The Contractor fails Lot Acceptance Testing (LAT) requirements on two (2) consecutive lots.

Should this occur, the Contractor will immediately cease production (Stop Work) and conduct a Failure Analysis and provide such reports as required to facilitate the completion of a Corrective Actions Report (CAR) as directed by the Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) Quality Assurance Representative (QAR). The CAR will then be submitted to the QAR and the Contracting Officer for review no later than 15 calendar days after occurrence. The QAR and Contracting Officer will determine within five (5) working days after receipt of the CAR if production of the approved First Article Test configuration may resume or if the Contractor must conduct a new First Article Test for the issuance of a new First Article Test Approval Letter. If a new First Article Test is required, the Contractor will submit the number of samples required to conduct a new First Article Test (at the Contractor’s expense) as directed by the Contracting Officer, for the issuance of a new First Article Test Approval Letter. All First Article Test Reports remain the property of the Government.

3.9 Service Life

The Contractor shall provide a five-year service life for the MBP for workmanship, materials, design, and compliance with the performance specifications as well as shelf life requirements detailed in MIL-STD 3027.

4.0 GOVERNMENT FURNISHED INFORMATION

All GFI required to complete statement of work tasking will be provided with the Request for Proposal

(RFP).

5.0 SECURITY

This contract effort is UNCLASSIFIED. Performance under this contract will NOT require access to nor generation of classified information.

5.1 Release of Information

(a) Release of information shall be in accordance with Section I, DFARS Clause 252.204-

7000, Disclosure of Information.

(b) All technical data provided to the contractor by the Government will be protected from public disclosure in accordance with the markings contained thereon. All other information relating to the items to be delivered or services to be performed under this contract may not be disclosed by any means without prior approval of the appropriate NSWC PCD authority. Dissemination or public disclosure includes, but is not limited to, permitting access to such information by foreign nationals or by any other person or entity; publication of technical or scientific papers; advertising; or any other proposed public release. The contractor shall provide adequate physical protection to such information to preclude access by any person or entity not authorized such access by the Government.

5.2 Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI)

Controlled unclassified information (CUI) is official information that requires the application of controls and protective measures for a variety of reasons and has not been approved for public release, to include technical information, proprietary data, information requiring protection under the Privacy Act of 1974, and Government-developed privileged information involving the award of contracts. CUI is a categorical designation that refers to unclassified information that does not meet the standards for National Security Classification under Executive Order 13526, but is (a) pertinent to the national interest of the United States or to the important interests of entities outside the Federal Government, and (b) under law or policy requires protection from unauthorized disclosure, special handling safeguards, or prescribed limits on exchange or dissemination.

5.3 Minimum Requirements for Access to Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI)

Prior to access, Contractor personnel requiring access to Department of the Navy (DoN) controlled unclassified information (CUI) or "user level access to DoN or DoD networks and information systems, system security and network defense systems, or to system resources providing visual access and/or ability to input, delete or otherwise manipulate sensitive information without controls to identify and deny sensitive information" contractors must have clearance eligibility, or submit an Electronic Questionnaire for Investigation Processing (SF

86) to NSWC PCD Security for processing and subsequent adjudication by the DoN Central Adjudication Facility.

5.4 Minimum Protection Requirements for Controlled Unclassified Information

Security classification guides and unclassified limited documents (e.g., For Official Use Only (FOUO), Distribution Statement Controlled) are not authorized for public release and, therefore, cannot be posted on a publicly accessible webserver or transmitted over the Internet unless appropriately encrypted.

5.5 For Official Use Only (FOUO)

FOUO is a document designation, not a classification. This designation is used by Department of Defense (DoD) and a number of other federal agencies to identify information or material, which although unclassified, disclosure to the public of the information would reasonably be expected to cause a foreseeable harm to an interest protected by one or more provisions of the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). This includes information that qualifies for protection pursuant to the provisions of the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended. FOUO must be marked, controlled and safeguarded in accordance with DoDM 5200.01, Vol. 4, DoD Information Security Program:

Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), February 24, 2012

5.6 Security of Unclassified DoD Information on Non-DoD Information Systems (DoDI 8582.01) DoD Policy

Adequate security shall be provided for all unclassified DoD information on non-DoD information systems.

Appropriate requirements shall be incorporated into all contracts, grants, and other legal agreements with non-DoD entities.

Information Safeguards are applicable to unclassified DoD information in the possession or control of non- DoD entities on non-DoD information systems, to the extent provided by the applicable contract, grant, or other legal agreement with the DoD.

5.6.1 Information Safeguards

Unclassified DoD information that has not been cleared for public release may be disseminated by the Contractor, grantee, or awardee to the extent required to further the contract, grant, or agreement objectives, provided that the information is disseminated within the scope of assigned duties and with a clear expectation that confidentiality will be preserved. Examples include:

a. Non-public information provided to a Contractor (e.g., with a request for proposal).

b. Information developed during the course of a contract, grant, or other legal agreement

(e.g., draft documents, reports, or briefings and deliverables).

c. Privileged information contained in transactions (e.g., privileged contract information, program schedules, contract-related event tracking).

It is recognized that adequate security will vary depending on the nature and sensitivity of the information on any given non-DoD information system. However, all unclassified DoD information in the possession or control of non-DoD entities on non-DoD information systems shall minimally be safeguarded as follows:

a Do not process unclassified DoD information on publically available computers (e.g., those available for use by the general public in kiosks or hotel business centers).

b. Protect unclassified DoD information by at least one physical or electronic barrier (e.g., locked container or room, logical authentication or logon procedure) when not under direct individual control of an authorized user.

c. At a minimum, overwrite media that have been used to process unclassified DoD information before external release or disposal.

d. Encrypt all information that has been identified as CUI when it is stored on mobile computing devices such as laptops and personal digital assistants, compact disks, or authorized removable storage media such as thumb drives and compact disks, using the best encryption technology available to the Contractor or teaming partner.

e. Limit transfer of unclassified DoD information to subcontractors or teaming partners with a need to know and obtain a commitment from them to protect the information they receive to at least the same level of protection as that specified in the contract or other written agreement.

f Transmit e-mail, text messages, and similar communications containing unclassified DoD information using technology and processes that provide the best level of privacy available, given facilities, conditions, and environment. Examples of recommended technologies or processes include closed networks, virtual private networks, public key-enabled encryption, and transport layer security.

g. Encrypt organizational wireless connections and use encrypted wireless connections where available when traveling. If encrypted wireless is not available, encrypt document files (e.g., spreadsheet and word processing files), using at least application-provided password protected level encryption.

h. Transmit voice and fax transmissions only when there is a reasonable assurance that access is limited to authorized recipients.

i. Do not post unclassified DoD information to website pages that are publicly available or have access limited only by domain or Internet protocol restriction. Such information may be posted to website pages that control access by user identification and password, user certificates, or other technical means and provide protection via use of transport layer security or other equivalent technologies during transmission. Access control may be provided by the intranet (vice the website itself or the application it hosts).

j. Provide protection against computer network intrusions and data exfiltration, minimally including:

(1) Current and regularly updated malware protection services, e.g., anti-virus, anti-spyware.

(2) Monitoring and control of both inbound and outbound network traffic (e.g., at the external boundary, sub-networks, individual hosts), including blocking unauthorized ingress, egress, and exfiltration through technologies such as firewalls and router policies, intrusion prevention or detection services, and host-based security services. Prompt application of security-relevant software patches, service packs, and hot fixes.

k. Comply with other current Federal and DoD information protection and reporting requirements for specified categories of information (e.g.,…
