The following additional texts (TXT) apply to this solicitation:

C-TXT-07 WORK WEEK (NIWC-PAC) (JUL 2017)

(a) All or a portion of the effort under this contract will be performed on a Government installation. The normal work week for Government employees at the Naval Information Warfare Center Pacific (NIWC Pacific) is Monday through Thursday 7:15 AM to 4:45 PM and Friday 7:15 AM to 3:45 PM with every other Friday a non-work day. Work at this Government installation, shall be performed by the contractor within the normal work hours at NIWC Pacific unless differing hours are specified on a delivery/task order. The contractor is not required to maintain the same hours as Government employees; however, contractor employees performing work at NIWC Pacific must work during the normal workweek. The following is a list of holidays observed by the Government.

Name of Holiday Time of Observance

(b) If any of the above holidays occur on a Saturday or a Sunday, then such holiday shall be observed by the contractor in accordance with the practice as observed by the assigned Government employees at the using activity.

(c) If the contractor is prevented from performance as the result of an Executive Order or an administrative leave determination applying to the using activity, such time may be charged to the contract as direct cost provided such charges are consistent with the contractor’s accounting practices.

(d) This contract does not allow for payment of overtime during the normal workweek for employees who are not exempted from the Fair Labor Standards Act unless expressly authorized by the Ordering Officer. Under Federal regulations the payment of overtime is required only when an employee works more than 40 hours during a week. Therefore, during the NIWC Pacific off-Friday (36 hour) week overtime will not be paid for non-exempt employees. During the work-Friday week (44 hour) the contractor is to schedule work so as not to incur overtime charges during the normal work week unless authorized in writing by the Government to do so. An example of this would be for contractor personnel to work during the hours of 7:15 AM to 4:45 PM Monday through Thursday and 7:15 AM to 3:45 PM Friday during the work-Friday week. The contractor may also elect to configure the workforce in such a way that no single employee exceeds 40 hours during a normal week even though normal NIWC Pacific hours are maintained both weeks.

(e) NOTICE: All contractor employees who make repeated deliveries to military installations shall obtain the required employee pass via the Defense Biometric Identification System (DBIDS) in order to gain access to the facility. Information about DBIDS may be found at the following website: https://www.cnic.navy.mil/om/dbids.html.

Contractor employees must be able to obtain a DBIDS in accordance with base security requirements. Each employee shall wear the Government issued DBIDS badge over the front of the outer clothing. When an employee leaves the contractor's employ, the employee's DBIDS badge shall be returned to the Contracting Officer's Representative or the base Badge and Pass Office within five (5) calendar days.

Contractors who do not have a DBIDS or Common Access Card (CAC) must be issued a one-day pass daily at the Badge and Pass Office. Issuance of a CAC requires the need for physical access to the installation and logical access to government owned computer systems.

(f) Periodically the Government may conduct Anti-Terrorism Force Protection (AT/FP) and/or safety security exercises which may require the contractor to adjust its work schedule and/or place of performance to accommodate execution of the exercise. The contractor will be required to work with its Government point of contact to adjust work schedules and/or place of performance in the case of an exercise that causes disruption of normally scheduled work hours, or disruption of access to a government facility. The contract does not allow for payment of work if schedules cannot be adjusted and/or the work cannot be executed remotely (i.e., the contractor's facility or alternate non-impacted location), during an exercise when government facilities are inaccessible.

(End of clause)
