All personnel must meet requirements IAW DODD 8570. A successful NCIC II background check must be completed on all contractors prior to the execution of this contract.
a. Originate the request through your Contractor Company Facility Security Officer (FSO) based on bona fide contractual occupational requirement. Individuals cannot apply for a personnel security clearance application on their own. The security clearance process begins when a company determines that an employee or candidate for employment requires a personnel security clearance to access classified information in order to perform the duties of his or her position. If the applicant has never held a personnel security clearance, or if their previous clearance was terminated more than 24 months ago, this is referred to as an initial clearance. The employee must complete an Electronic Questionnaire for Investigations Processing (e-QIP), signature pages and submit fingerprints electronically for all initial investigation requests.
b. Requests for clearances are sent to the Personnel Security Management Office for Industry (PSMO-I) which can issue interim clearances for industry personnel on behalf of the DoD and User Agencies under the National Industrial Security Program. The kind, or type, of investigation conducted depends on the access level that the individual is required to have to perform his or her official duties. For access to CONFIDENTIAL or SECRET information, a National Agency Check with Local Agency Checks and Credit Check (NACLC) is completed. For access to TOP SECRET or Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI) information, a Single Scope Background Investigation (SSBI) is required.
Average Investigation timelines (days) for FY15 were as follows:
NACLC: 75
PHASE/SSBI -PR: 230
SSBI: 177
c. Upon the completion of the background investigation, DoD Adjudications Facilities adjudicates the case. The adjudicator considers the following factors when evaluating an individual's conduct:
1. The nature, extent and seriousness of the conduct
2. The circumstances surrounding the conduct, to include knowledgeable participation
3. The frequency and recency of the conduct
4. The individual's age and maturity at the time of the conduct
5. The extent to which participation is voluntary.
6. The presence or absence of rehabilitation and other permanent behavioral changes
7. The motivation for the conduct
8. The potential for pressure, coercion, exploitation, or duress; and
9. The likelihood of continuation or recurrence of the conduct Each case is judged on its own merits and the final determination is the responsibility of the specific department or agency that adjudicates the clearance eligibility. Any doubt regarding whether access to classified information is clearly consistent with national security must be resolved in favor of national security.
d. Personnel Security Clearances must be kept to an absolute minimum based on contractual needs; for more information please visit http://www.dss.mil/psmo-i/indus_psmo-i_process_applicant.html.
e. Safeguarding For Official Use Only (FOUO) Information. During normal duty hours, the Contractor shall place information determined to be FOUO in an out-of-sight location, if visitors, casual traffic, and other non- Government/Non-Contractor personnel have access to the work area. During non-duty hours and at the close of business, the Contractor shall store FOUO records, so as to preclude unauthorized access. The transmission, termination of, and
Attachment 1 – Performance Work Statement Page 7 of 21 disposal of, FOUO documents will be consistent with Army Regulations (AR) 380-5, Protection of FOUO, Information and Installation Policy.
f. Network Access. Contractor personnel requiring access to Government-owned computer networks must obtain the proper background level of investigations, with favorable results, at the Contractor’s expense, prior to being issued a user identification and password IAW AR 380-67 and AR 380-5. Additionally, Contractor employees and associated subcontractor employees must complete the DoD IA, Information Awareness training, before issuance of network access, and annually thereafter.
g. Accounting for Common Access Cards (CACs) for Contractor Personnel Departing
CAC Issuance and Revocations: DoDI 5200.46, September 9, 2014
A CAC will not be issued (or maintained) by a person if there is a reasonable basis to believe, based on the individual’s criminal or dishonest conduct, that issuance of a CAC poses an unacceptable risk.
a. An individual’s conduct involving questionable judgment, lack of candor, dishonesty, or unwillingness to comply with rules and regulations can raise questions about his or her reliability or trustworthiness and may put people, property, or information systems at risk. An individual’s past criminal or dishonest conduct may put people, property, or information systems at risk.
b. Therefore, conditions that may be disqualifying include:
(1) A single serious crime or multiple lesser offenses which put the safety of people at risk or threaten the protection of property or information. A person’s convictions for burglary may indicate that granting a CAC poses an unacceptable risk to the U.S. Government’s physical assets and to employees’ personal property on a U.S. Government facility.
(2) Charges or admission of criminal conduct relating to the safety of people and proper protection of property or information systems, regardless of whether the person was formally charged, formally prosecuted, or convicted.
(3) Dishonest acts (e.g., theft, accepting bribes, falsifying claims, perjury, forgery, or attempting to obtain identity documentation without proper authorization).
(4) Deceptive or illegal financial practices such as embezzlement, employee theft, check fraud, income tax evasion, expense account fraud, filing deceptive loan statements, or other intentional financial breaches of trust.
(5) Actions involving violence or sexual behavior of a criminal nature that poses an unacceptable risk if access is granted to federally-controlled facilities and federally-controlled information systems. For example, convictions for sexual assault may indicate that granting a CAC poses an unacceptable risk to the life and safety of persons on U.S. Government facilities.
(6) Financial irresponsibility may raise questions about the individual’s honesty and put people, property or information systems at risk, although financial debt should not in and of itself be cause for denial.
(7) Deliberate omission, concealment, or falsification of relevant facts or deliberately providing false or misleading information to an employer, investigator, security official, competent medical authority, or other official U.S. Government representative, particularly when doing so results in personal benefit or which results in a risk to the safety of people and proper safeguarding of property and information systems."
Compliance with HSPD-12: On 07 Mar 14 the Secretary of the Army published Army Directive 2014-05, which establishes HSPD-12 investigative and adjudicative policy and procedures to support credentialing determinations for the issuance of CACs to eligible Army Contractor personnel. HSPD-12 mandates a Government wide standard for secure and reliable forms of identification issued by the Federal Government for physical access to federally controlled facilities and/or logical access to federally controlled information systems. The CAC is the DoD federal personal identity verification credential.
Attachment 1 – Performance Work Statement Page 8 of 21
The purpose of security screening is to ID those persons who may pose a threat to good order and discipline on Fort Bragg by either denying them access or placing restrictions on their movement. The following criteria will be used as a guideline for determining denial of access to Fort Bragg:
(1) (U) Any record of a felony conviction for a crime (includes murder, rape, sale of illegal drugs, grand theft, arson, and kidnapping).
(2) (U) Three or more misdemeanor convictions within the past five years (includes assault, theft of $500 or less, and excludes traffic violations).
(3) (U) VCC personnel will NOT relay the source of the information to the visitor (e.g. visitors will not be told that the information comes from the Bars and Suspension List or from NCIC screening). Subjects are not authorized to view the information under any circumstances.
(4) (U) The SC is the final approval authority for any adjudication request for access denial.
If CTRs meet access control standards of Army Directive 2014-05 (Policy and Implementation for Common Access Card Credentialing and Installations Access for Uncleared Contractors, dated 7 Mar 14) then DoD Consolidated Adjudications Facility (CAF) will conduct centralized adjudications of favorable HSPD-12 background investigations. The DoD CAF will forward investigations that cannot be favorably adjudicated to the Defense Office of Hearings and Appeals (DOHA) for a final credentialing determination. The Contractor shall complete the Updated Personal Identity Verification of Contractor Personnel for Common Access Cards (CACs) form contained as Technical Exhibit H which will be provided to the COR NLT the 10th day of each month.
The Contractor shall immediately report any lost CAC or Government issued identification cards to the COR and Military and/or DoD police agencies. The Contractor shall immediately collect the CAC and other Government issued forms of identification upon termination of employee, or at the end of the contract performance period. The CAC and other Government issued forms of identification shall be returned to the COR within one (1) hour of employee termination, or at the end of contract performance period, whichever comes first. Final payment may be delayed if Contractor fails to comply with these requirements.
(1) In the event a contractor employee separates without advance notice (either quits or is terminated), the contractor shall immediately notify the Trusted Agent (TA) who will ensure CAC permissions are revoked the same day. In various instances a contractor employee may not be on task (working) due to furloughs, suspensions pending the outcome of an investigation, or the contract reaches the end of the period of performance (POP) and renewal is anticipated but not yet complete. During these occurrences, the TA or a representative from the contractor (TA’s choice) will collect and retain the CACs of the affected contractor personnel residing in the local area however; CAC permissions will not be revoked in the Trusted Associate Sponsorship System (TASS). Collecting CACs however, may not be feasible for contractor personnel located in remote locations. When contractor personnel return to work under the contract, they will retrieve their CAC from the responsible party who collected it.
(2) The contractor shall include a monthly report listing contractor employees who departed during the previous month and the date their CACs were turned in using the format listed below.
