Under the DBIDS program, commercial vehicle inspection is required, including situations of Random Anti-Terrorism Measures (RAM) or in the case of an elevation of Force Protection Conditions (FPCON). Information on requirements to participate and enroll in DBIDS is available at http://dbids.dmdc.mil/ or by calling 1-800-372-7437. One-Day Passes: Participation in the DBIDS is not mandatory, and if the Contractor chooses to not participate, the Contractor's personnel will have to obtain daily passes, be subject to daily mandatory vehicle inspection, and will have limited access to the installation. The Government will not be responsible for any cost or lost time associated with obtaining daily passes or added vehicle inspections incurred by non-participants in the DBIDS.
