: General Information Introduction National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) seeks to implement a strategy for comprehensive and effective security programs for the protection of people, property, operations, and information associated with the NASA mission. The goals of uniformity and interoperability of protective services across the Agency will be achieved through standardization of requirements such as training, qualifications, and equipment. This Performance Work Statement (PWS) for protective services addresses requirements for both LF and PBS. Glenn will support this strategy through the acquisition of protective services as described in this PWS.
Work under this Firm Fixed Price (FFP) contract will be performed in and around the Lewis Field (LF) located at 21000 Brookpark Road, Cleveland, Ohio 44135 and the Plum Brook Station (PBS) located at 3899 E. Scheid Road, Sandusky, Ohio 44870 and other areas directed by the Government and allowed by law, with primary duties generally performed at LF and PBS.
Subcontractors shall be accountable solely to the Contractor who, in turn is responsible to the Government.
The Contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, supplies, facilities, transportation, tools, materials, supervision, and other items necessary to perform comprehensive security services as defined in this PWS except for those items specified as government-furnished equipment (GFE) and services. The Contractor’s performance shall meet or exceed the standards in this contract.
A primary and alternate Contracting Officer Representative (COR) will be appointed to provide Government surveillance of services provided at Glenn. Alternate CORs may be appointed to provide Government surveillance of services provided at the Center.
General Information Quality Control The Contractor shall develop and maintain an effective quality control program to ensure services are performed in accordance with this PWS. The Contractor shall develop and implement procedures to identify, prevent, and ensure that defective services do not recur. The Contractor’s quality control program is the means by which the Contractor ensures itself that the work complies with contract requirements. The Quality Control Plan (QCP) shall be delivered within 60 calendar days after contract award. After acceptance of the QCP, the Contractor shall receive the COR’s acceptance in writing of proposed changes to his quality control system.
Hours of Operation
1. The Contractor is responsible for conducting business for the hours required for each task. Unless otherwise stated, services shall be provided 24 hours a day, 7 days a week (24/7).
The Contractor will not be reimbursed when the Government facility is closed on Federal holidays or when the Government facility is closed due to local or national emergencies, administrative closings, or similar Government directed facility closings. The Contractor must at all times maintain an adequate workforce for the uninterrupted performance of all tasks defined within this PWS.
Noncritical position employees (unarmed) shall not work in excess of the following maximum work times:
12 consecutive hours (16 consecutive hours in emergency situations with approval) 60 hours during a 7 day work week 7 consecutive days without at least one full day off 240 hours during a 4 week period 2,500 hours during a rolling 12-month period Critical position employees (armed) shall not work in excess of the following maximum work times:
12 consecutive hours (16 consecutive hours in emergency situations with approval by a supervisor capable of evaluating the human factors risk level for the critical role. Only during a Center or program declared emergency may 16 consecutive hours be exceeded with high level of designated approval).
60 hours during a 7 day work week[footnoteRef:1] [1: Preapproval is required for deviations by a designated supervisor after consideration of human factor safety issues for the critical position.]
7 consecutive days without at least one full day off* (deviations may be pre-approved at a high level for up to 18 consecutive days with 2 full days off required after the extension period) 240 hours during a 4 week period* 2,500 hours during a rolling 12 month period* A critical position is one in which the worker's job performance can directly impact ground safety, flight safety, or mission success. Further information on critical positions can be found in NASA Procedural Requirement (NPR) 1800.1C. All other positions are considered to be noncritical.
The Contractor shall monitor off-duty employment to mitigate potential conflicts with full duty performance in support of the contract.
Security Requirements Personnel performing work under this contract shall possess the appropriate National security clearance when required and identified. Not all tasks covered under this PWS require a National security clearance. Contractor personnel shall possess a current security clearance based on the sensitivity of the position, which they occupy and at least equal to the highest classification of information to which they will have access. The security requirements are in accordance with the Department of Defense Contract Security Classification Specification DD Form 254, which will be issued upon award.
Physical Security The Contractor shall be responsible for safeguarding all Government equipment, information, and property provided for contractor use. At the close of each work period, Government facilities, equipment, and materials shall be secured.
Key Control The Contractor shall establish and implement methods for making sure all keys and key cards issued to the Contractor by the Government are not lost or misplaced and are not used by unauthorized persons. Note: All references to keys include key cards. Keys issued to the Contractor by the Government shall not be duplicated. The Contractor shall develop procedures covering key control that shall be included in their QCP including turning in keys by their employees who no longer require access to locked areas. The Contractor shall immediately report occurrences of lost or duplicate keys to the COR.
If the Contractor duplicates or loses keys other than master keys, the Contractor shall re-key or replace the affected lock or locks upon direction of the Contracting Officer. However, the Government, at its option, may replace the affected lock or locks or perform re-keying. When the Government replaces locks or re-keys, the total cost of re-keying or replacement of the lock or locks shall be deducted from the monthly payment due the Contractor. If a master key is lost or duplicated, all locks and keys for that system shall be replaced by the Government and the total cost deducted from the monthly payment due the Contractor.
The Contractor shall prohibit the use of Government issued keys by any persons other than the Contractor’s employees. The Contractor shall prohibit the opening of locked areas by Contractor employees to permit entrance of persons other than Contractor employees engaged in the performance of assigned work in those areas, or other personnel who are authorized entrance by the COR.

Organizational Conflicts of Interest Contractor and subcontractor personnel performing work under this contract may receive, have access to, or participate in development of proprietary or source selection information (e.g., cost or pricing information, budget information or analysis, specifications or work statements, etc.) or perform evaluation services, which may create a current or subsequent Organizational Conflicts of Interest (OCI) as defined in FAR Subpart 9.5.
