Contact the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) or Contracting Officer’s Security Officer for assistance as needed.

7.4.2. Single Day Pass: Visiting vendors/contractors requiring infrequent access may obtain daily passes directly from the individual Navy Installation by submitting identification credentials for verification and undergoing a criminal screening/background check. A new pass is required to gain access each day. Naval Base Kitsap (NBK) issues passes. The Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) National Crime Information Center (NCIC) criminal database and FBI Terrorist Watch List will be checked daily prior to entry. In addition, NBK must check the Navy’s Consolidated Law Enforcement Operations Center (CLEOC) database to ensure an unescorted visitor has no objectionable criminal record is not on the Terrorist Watch List and has not been previously debarred from entry onto any Navy Installation.

7.4.3. Defense Biometric Identification System (DBIDS) Program: Commander, Navy Installations Command (CNIC) has established the Defense Biometric Identification System (DBIDS) for access control to CNIC Installations via Entry Control Points (ECP).

There are no fees associated with obtaining a DBIDS credential.

7.4.3.1. The Government performs background screening and credentialing. Throughout the year, the Contractor employee must continue to meet background-screening standards. Periodic background screenings are conducted to verify continued DBIDS participation and installation access privileges. DBIDS access privileges will be immediately suspended or revoked if at any time a Contractor employee becomes ineligible.

7.4.3.2. Access to Installation. All Contractor personnel shall obtain access to the installation through enrollment and registration into the Defense Biometric Identification System (DBIDS). The Contractor shall provide the Contracting Officer with the name of their designated Service Contractor Administrator (SCA) for enrollment in DBIDS. Contact the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) or Contracting Officer’s Security Officer for assistance as needed. Once enrolled, the Contractor must provide the DBIDS Registrar with an approved employee list and then direct their employees to register into DBIDS.

7.4.3.3. DBIDS Credentials. Contractor employees shall furnish a completed copy of the SECNAV 5512/1 form to obtain the required background check and visit the local Navy Installation Visitor Control Center to obtain a DBIDS credential once approved. The SECNAV 5512/1 form and additional information about DBIDS can be found at: https://www.cnic.navy.mil/om/dbids.html.

7.4.3.4. The Contractor may initiate the adjudication process when a background screen failure results in disqualification from participation in DBIDS and the Contractor employees do not agree with the reason for disqualification. The Contractor may also apply for a waiver when a background screening failure results in disqualification from participation in DBIDS. The Commanding Officer will be the final waiver determination authority.

7.4.3.5. The Contractor shall immediately collect employee DBIDS credentials and notify the Contracting Officer in writing:

7.4.3.5.1. That an employee has departed the company without having properly returned or surrendered their DBIDS credentials.

7.4.3.6. DBIDS Paper Passes. In the event that a visitor, vendor, or Contractor employee elects not to participate in DBIDS, the individual will be issued DBIDS paper pass from the Base Pass and Identification Office in order to access to the installation. The time standard for the validity of a pass to access an installation will be not more than thirty (30) days and may be further restricted based on local policy or by Federal, DOD, Navy, and CNIC guidance. The Government will not be responsible for any cost or lost time associated with obtaining paper passes or added vetting or inspections incurred by non-participants in the DBIDS credentialing process

7.5. The contractor shall prepare a Visit Request List Form with Cover Letter on Company Letterhead for all prime contractor and subcontractor personnel required to access Navy Vessels in the CIA. The visit request will be submitted via email to the Contracting Officer’s Security Officer at reginald.b.deriso.civ@us.navy.mil. The cover letter will be a formal request for badging and access during the contract or delivery period of performance. The letter shall include (1) the purpose of access, (2) dates of validity (period of performance), (3) contract number, and (4) name of subcontractors to be employed. The cover letter shall be signed by the Prime Contractors Facility Security Officer (FSO), and shall be received by the Contacting Officer’s Security Officer NO LESS THAN FIVE (5) FULL WORKING DAYS PRIOR TO THE REQUESTED START DATE (8-10 calendar days prior is recommended). The prime contractor shall bear full responsibility for the accuracy of the Cover Letter and Visit Request List. Note: Submitting a cover letter and/or list with incomplete information, errors or a blanket list of all company personnel can significantly delay processing requests and result in not being authorized access in time to begin the period of performance.
