Contractor and all associated subcontractor-Contractors employees shall comply with applicable installation, facility and area commander installation/facility access and local security policies and procedures (provided by Government representative). The Contractor shall also provide all information required for background checks to meet installation access requirements to be accomplished by installation Provost Marshal Office, Director of Emergency Services or Security Office.

In addition to the changes otherwise authorized by the changes clause of this contract, should the Force Protection Condition (FPCON) at any individual facility or installation change, the Government may require changes in Contractor security matters or processes.

5.1 Defense Biometric Identification System (DBIDS). The Defense Biometric Identification System (DBIDS) is a DoD-owned and operated system developed by Defense Manpower Data Center as a force protection program to manage personnel identity and access at DoD installations. DBIDS is a network database system designed to easily verify access authorization of personnel entering military installations by using barcodes and fingerprint biometric identifications.

To improve management and force protection at Navy installations, the Navy is transitioning from using the Navy Commercial Access Control System (NCACS) to the Defense Biometric Identification System (DBIDS) for Contractors and vendors requiring access to an installation at no cost to them. The transition will begin 17 April 2017 and individuals will have up to 180 days to obtain the permanent card. After August 14, 2017, NCACs cards will no longer be accepted.

In order to obtain base access, an individual need to acquire DoD sponsorship, have a thorough identity check, be properly vetted, and have a legitimate reason for base access. Identity checks require a passport or a Real ID Act-compliant state driver's license. Vetting occurs when the individual's background and ID are compared against authoritative criminal justice data bases, and the individual has a letter or official document from the sponsoring organization which articulates the reason for access. When the above criteria are satisfactorily met, DBIDs credentials are issued.

Additional information is available at https://www.cnic.navy.mil/om/dbids.html.
