Clauses By Full Text

FBI-0023 Federal Bureau of Investigation Electronic Invoicing Requirements (Nov 2023)

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) requires vendors to submit invoices and supporting documentation electronically through the Invoice Processing Platform (IPP). IPP is a secure, web-based electronic invoicing system provided by the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Bureau of the Fiscal Service (Treasury) in partnership with the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis (FRSTL). IPP is available at no cost to any commercial vendor or independent contractor doing business with a participating government agency. To learn more about IPP, please visit IPP.gov.

Invoice Submission

Vendors are required to create and submit electronic invoices using the IPP system. Invoices submitted by email will not be accepted. This requirement applies immediately upon contract award. For contract-specific questions, please contact the designated contracting officer for your contract.

Obtaining IPP Access

If your company has already enrolled in IPP:

You will not be required to re-register. Please contact your company's IPP account administrator so that he/she may add you as an additional user to your company's IPP Collector account.

If your company has NOT enrolled in IPP:

Your company will be auto-enrolled for IPP using information from your SAM.gov account. Your company's Primary Electronic Business Point of Contact (POC) will be designated as an IPP administrator. This POC will be contacted by email to register when the FBI initiates the enrollment process through IPP. To prevent enrollment delays, please ensure your designated Electronic Business POC in SAM.gov is up to date.

Your company's IPP administrator will be responsible for initial account registration as well as creating and managing your company's IPP users and permissions. Please note that due to U.S. Department of the Treasury guidelines, IPP cannot set up User IDs using a shared email address.

How to register for IPP:

1. Once FBI initiates the enrollment process, your company's designated Electronic Business POC in SAM.gov will receive two emails from IPP Customer Support (noreply@mail.eroc.twai.gov):

• The first email contains the initial administrative IPP User ID

• The second email, sent within 24 hours of receipt of the first email, contains a temporary password

• You must log in with the temporary password within 30 days

2. Registration is complete when the initial administrative user logs into the IPP web site with the User ID and password provided and accepts the IPP rules of behavior. Additional user accounts, including administrators, can be created after initial login.

Training

Vendor training materials, including a first-time login tutorial, are available on the IPP.gov website. Once you have logged in to the IPP application, you will have access to user guides that provide step-by-step instructions for all IPP capabilities ranging from creating and submitting an invoice to setting up email notifications.

Additional Support

IPP Customer Support Team is available Monday through Friday from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm EST

• Phone: (866) 973-3131 or Email: IPPCustomerSupport@fiscal.treasury.gov

• For answers to frequently asked questions, visit the Vendor FAQ page on the gov web site.

DJAR-PGD-05-08 Implementation of Homeland Security Presidential Directive (HSPD) 12 - Policy for a Common Identification Standard for Federal Employees and Contractor (Nov 2023)

NOTICE OF CONTRACTOR PERSONNEL SECURITY REQUIREMENTS

Compliance with Homeland Security Presidential Directive-12 (HSPD-12) and Federal Information Processing Standard Publication 201 (FIPS 201)' entitled "Personal Identification Verification (PIV) for Federal Employees and Contractors," Phase I.

1. Long-Term Contractor Personnel: In order to be compliant with HSPD-12/PIV I, the following investigative requirements must be met for each new long-term2 contractor employee whose background investigation (BI) process begins on or after October 27, 2005:

a. Contractor Personnel must present two forms of identification in original form prior to badge issuance (acceptable documents are listed in Form 1-9, OMB No. 1615-0047, " Employment Eligibility Verification," and at least one document must be a valid State or Federal government-issued picture

ID);

b. Contractor Personnel must appear in person at least once before a DOJ official who is responsible for checking the identification documents. This identity proofing must be completed sometime during the clearance process but prior to badge issuance and must be documented by the DOJ official;

c. Contractor Personnel must undergo a BI commensurate with the designated risk level associated with the duties of each position. Outlined below are the minimum BI requirements for each risk level:

• High Risk - Background Investigation (5 year scope)

• Moderate Risk - Limited Background Investigation (LBI) or Minimum Background Investigation (MBI)

• Low Risk - National Agency Check with Inquiries (NACI) investigation

d. The pre-appointment BI waiver requirements for all position sensitivity levels are a:

1. Favorable review of the security questionnaire form;

2. Favorable fingerprint results;

15F06724Q0000142 Page 12 of 77

3. Favorable credit report, if required;

4. Waiver request memorandum, including both the Office of Personnel Management schedule date and position sensitivity/risk level; and

5. Favorable review of the National Agency Check (NAC)4 portion of the applicable BI that is determined by position sensitivity/risk level.

A badge may be issued following approval of the above waiver requirements. If the NAC is not received within five days of OPM' s scheduling date, the badge can be issued based on a favorable review of the Security Questionnaire and the Federal Bureau of Investigation Criminal History Check (i.e., fingerprint check results)

e. Badge re-validation will occur once the investigation is completed and favorably adjudicated. If the BI results so justify, badges issued under these procedures will be suspended or revoked.

2. Short-Term Contractor Personnel:

It is the policy of the DOJ that short-term contractors having access to DOJ information systems and/or DOJ facilities or space for six months or fewer are subject to the identity proofing requirements listed in items la. and

lb. above. The pre-appointment waiver requirements for short-term contractors are:

a. Favorable review of the security questionnaire form;

b. Favorable fingerprint results;

c. Favorable credit report, if required; and

d. Waiver request memorandum indicating both the position sensitivity/risk level and the duration of the appointment. The commensurate BI does not need to be initiated.

A badge may be issued following approval of the above waiver requirements and the badge will expire six months from the date of issuance. This process can only be used once for a short-term contractor in a twelve month period. This will ensure that any consecutive short-term appointments are subject to the full PFV-I identity proofing process.

For example, if a contractor employee requires daily access for a three or four-week period, this contractor would be cleared according to the above short-term requirements. However, if a second request is submitted for the same contractor employee within a twelve-month period for the purpose of extending the initial contract or for employment under a totally different contract for another three or four-week period, this contractor would now be considered "long-term" and must be cleared according to the long-term requirements as stated in this interim policy.

3. Intermittent Contractors:

An exception to the above-mentioned short-term requirements would be intermittent contractors.

a. For purposes of this policy, "intermittent" is defined as those contractor employees needing access to DOJ information systems and/or DOJ facilities or space for a maximum of one day per week, regardless of the duration of the required intermittent access. For example, the water delivery contractor that delivers water one time each week and is working on a one-year contract;

b. Contractors requiring intermittent access should follow the Department's escort policy. Please reference the August 11, 2004, and January 29, 2001, Department Security Officer policy memoranda that conveys the requirements for contractor facility escorted access.

c. Due to extenuating circumstances, if a component requests unescorted access or DOJ IT system access for an intermittent contractor, the same pre-employment background investigation waiver requirements that apply to short-term contractors are required.

d. If an intermittent contractor is approved for unescorted access, the contractor will only be issued a daily badge. The daily badge will be issued upon entrance into a DOJ facility or space and must be returned upon exiting the same facility or space.

15F06724Q0000142 Page 13 of 77

e. If an intermittent contractor is approved for unescorted access, the approval will not exceed one year.

If the intermittent contractor requires unescorted access beyond one year, the contractor will need to be re-approved each year.

4. An individual transferring from another department or agency shall not be re-adjudicated provided the individual has a current (within the last five years), favorably adjudicated BI meeting HSPD-12 and DOJ's BI requirements.

5.The DOJ's current escorted contractor policy remains unchanged by this acquisition notice.

NOTES:

1. FIPS 201 is available at: www.csrc.nist.gov/publications/fips/fips201 /FIPS-201-22505.pdf.

2. Under HSPD-12, long-term contractors are contractors having access to DOJ information systems and/or DOJ facilities or space for six months or longer. The PIV-I identity proofing process, including initiation and adjudication of the required background investigation, is required for all new long-term contractors regardless of whether it is the current practice to issue a badge. The second phase of HSPD-12 implementation (PIV-II) requires badge issuance to all affected long-term contractors.

3. For contractors in position sensitivity/risk levels above level 1, a favorable review of a credit check is required as part of the pre-appointment waiver package.

4. In order to avoid a delay in the hiring process, components should request an Advance NAC Report when initiating investigations to OPM. Per OPM 's instructions, to obtain an Advance NAC Report, a Code " 3" must be placed in block "B " of the " Agency Use Only " section of the investigative form. This report is available for all case types.

5. For contractors in position sensitivity/risk levels above level 1, a favorable review of a credit check is required as part of the pre-appointment waiver package.

DJAR-PGD-06-09 Reprogramming of Funds Notices to Congress for A-76 Competitions (Nov 2023)

Congressional Notification

Under the provisions of section 605(a) of the Department of Justice's appropriations act, an award in this procurement triggers a requirement that the Department notify congressional appropriations committees of actions resulting from the award which may include reorganization or contracting out of functions or activities presently performed by Federal employees.

An award in this procurement, and its implementation, are contingent upon satisfactory completion of the process required under section 605(a). After award, the Department will notify the source provider when this process has been satisfactorily completed and that implementation may begin. In the event that either congressional committee expresses reservations, the Department may cancel the procurement and award, without charge or penalty. Because the contract/performance start date could be delayed or actually cancelled due to the reprogramming notice to Congress, it is understandable not to include the expected start date in A-76 solicitations. However, the lack of a contract/performance start date makes it difficult for potential source providers to propose realistic pricing in their proposals.

As a best practice, it is recommended that future solicitations for streamlined or standard competitions include a notice similar to the following sentences.

15F06724Q0000142 Page 14 of 77

For pricing purposes only, offerors shall assume a contract/performance start date of [Start Date], which is the date it is assumed that the transition/phase-in period begins. The actual contract/performance start date may be different. (See the "Congressional Notification" term of the solicitation).

(b) The standard installation, operation, maintenance, update, and/or patching of software shall not alter the configuration settings from the approved FDCC configuration. The information technology should also use the Windows Installer Service for installation to the default "program files" directory and should be able to silently install and uninstall.

(End of Clause)

DJAR-PGD-07-12 Maintaining Contractor Performance During a Pandemic or Other Emergency (Nov 2023)

During a Pandemic or other emergency we understand that our contractor workforce will experience the same high levels of absenteeism as our federal employees. Although the Excusable Delays and Termination for Default clauses used in government contracts list epidemics and quarantine restrictions among the reasons to excuse delays in contract performance, we expect our contractors to make a reasonable effort to keep performance at an acceptable level during emergency periods.

The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) has provided guidance to federal managers and employees on the kinds of actions to be taken to ensure the continuity of operations during emergency periods. This guidance is also applicable to our contract workforce. Contractors are expected to have reasonable policies in place for continuing work performance, particularly those performing mission critical services, during a pandemic influenza or other emergency situation.

The types of actions a federal contractor should reasonably take to help ensure performance are:

• Encourage employees to get inoculations or follow other preventive measures as advised by the public health service.

• Contractors should cross-train workers as backup for all positions performing critical services. This is particularly important for work such as guard services where telework is not an option.

• Implement telework to the greatest extent possible in the workgroup so systems are in place to support successful remote work in an emergency.

• Communicate expectations to all employees regarding their roles and responsibilities in relation to remote work in the event of a pandemic health crisis or other emergency.

• Establish communication processes to notify employees of activation of this plan.

• Integrate pandemic health crisis response expectations into telework agreements.

• With the employee, assess requirements for working at home (supplies and equipment needed for an extended telework period). Security concerns should be considered in making equipment choices; agencies or contractors may wish to avoid use of employees' personal computers and provide them with PCs or laptops as appropriate.

• Determine how all employees who may telework will communicate with one another and with management to accomplish work.

15F06724Q0000142 Page 15 of 77

• Practice telework regularly to ensure effectiveness.

• Make it clear that in emergency situations, employees must perform all duties assigned by management, even if they are outside usual or customary duties.

• Identify how time and attendance will be maintained.

It is the contractor's responsibility to advise the government contracting officer if they anticipate not being able to perform and to work with the Department to fill gaps as necessary. This means direct communication with the contracting officer or in his/her absence, another responsible person in the contracting office via telephone or email messages acknowledging the contractors notification.

The incumbent contractor is responsible for assisting the Department in estimating the adverse impacts of nonperformance and to work diligently with the Department to develop a strategy for maintaining the continuity of operations.

DJAR-PGD-08-04 Security of Systems and Data, Including Personally Identifiable Information (Nov 2023)

A. Systems Security

The work to be performed under this contract requires the handling of data that originated within the Department, data that the contractor manages or acquires for the Department, and/or data that is acquired in order to perform the contract and concerns Department programs or personnel.

For all systems handling such data, the contractor shall comply with all security requirements applicable to Department of Justice systems, including but not limited to all Executive Branch system security requirements (e.g., requirements imposed by OMB and NIST), DOJ IT Security Standards, and DOJ Order 2640.2E. The contractor shall provide DOJ access to and information regarding the contractor's systems when requested by the Department in connection with its efforts to ensure compliance with all such security requirements, and shall otherwise cooperate with the Department in such efforts. DOJ access shall include independent validation testing of controls, system penetration testing by DOJ, FISMA data reviews, and access by the DOJ Office of the Inspector General for its reviews.

The use of contractor-owned laptops or other media storage devices to process or store data covered by this clause is prohibited until the contractor provides a letter to the contracting officer (CO) certifying the following requirements:

1. Laptops must employ encryption using a NIST Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-2 approved product;

2. The contractor must develop and implement a process to ensure that security and other applications software is kept up-to-date;

3. Mobile computing devices will utilize anti-viral software and a host-based firewall mechanism;

4. The contractor shall log all computer-readable data extracts from databases holding sensitive information and verify each extract including sensitive data has been erased within 90 days or its use is still required. All DOJ information is sensitive information unless designated as non-sensitive by the Department;

15F06724Q0000142 Page 16 of 77

5. Contractor-owned removable media, such as removable hard drives, flash drives, CDs, and floppy disks, containing DOJ data, shall not be removed from DOJ facilities unless encrypted using a NIST FEPS 140-2 approved product;

6. When no longer needed, all removable media and laptop hard drives shall be processed (sanitized, degaussed, or destroyed) in accordance with security requirements applicable to DOJ;

7. Contracting firms shall keep an accurate inventory of devices used on DOJ contracts;

8. Rules of behavior must be signed by users. These rules shall address at a minimum: authorized and official use; prohibition against unauthorized users; and protection of sensitive data and personally identifiable information;

9. All DOJ data will be removed from contractor-owned laptops upon termination of contractor work. This removal must be accomplished in accordance with DOJ IT Security Standard requirements. Certification of data removal will be performed by the contractor's project manager and a letter confirming certification will be delivered to the CO within 15 days of termination of contractor work;

B. Data Security

By acceptance of, or performance on, this contract, the contractor agrees that with respect to the data identified in paragraph a, in the event of any actual or suspected breach of such data (i.e., loss of control, compromise, unauthorized disclosure, access for an unauthorized purpose, or other unauthorized access, whether physical or electronic), the contractor will immediately (and in no event later than within one hour of discovery) report the breach to the DOJ CO and the contracting officer's technical representative (COTR).

If the data breach occurs outside of regular business hours and/or neither the CO nor the COTR can be reached, the contractor shall call the DOJ Computer Emergency Readiness Team (DOJCERT) at 1-866-US4-CERT (1-866-874-2378) within one hour of discovery of the breach. The contractor shall also notify the CO as soon as possible during regular business hours.

C. Personally Identifiable Information Notification Requirement

The contractor further certifies that it has a security policy in place that contains procedures to promptly notify any individual whose personally identifiable information (as defined by OMB) was, or is reasonably believed to have been, breached. Any notification shall be coordinated with the Department, and shall not proceed until the Department has made a determination that notification would not impede a law enforcement investigation or jeopardize national security.

The method and content of any notification by the contractor shall be coordinated with, and be subject to the approval of, the Department. The contractor assumes full responsibility for taking corrective action consistent with the Department's Data Breach Notification Procedures, which may include offering credit monitoring when appropriate.

D. Pass-through of Security Requirements to Subcontractors

The requirements set forth in Paragraphs a through c above, apply to all subcontractors who perform work in connection with this contract. For each subcontractor, the contractor must certify that it has required the subcontractor to adhere to all such requirements. Any breach by a subcontractor of any of the provisions set forth in this clause will be attributed to the contractor.

E. Information Resellers or Data Brokers

15F06724Q0000142 Page 17 of 77

For contracts where the Department obtains PII from a contractor (such as an information reseller or data broker) but the contractor does not handle the data described in Section A of this guidance document, the following clause must be used:

Information Resellers or Data Brokers Under this contract, the Department obtains personally identifiable information about individuals from the contractor. The contractor hereby certifies that it has a security policy in place which contains procedures to promptly notify any individual whose personally identifiable information (as defined by OMB) was, or is reasonably believed to have been, lost or acquired by an unauthorized person while the data is under the control of the contractor. In any case in which the data that was lost or improperly acquired reflects or consists of data that originated with the Department, or reflects sensitive law enforcement or national security interest in the data, the contractor shall notify the Department contracting officer so that the Department may determine whether notification would impede a law enforcement investigation or jeopardize national security. In such cases, the contractor shall not notify the individuals until it receives further instruction from the Department.

DJAR-PGD-08-05 Contractor Certification of Compliance with Federal Tax Requirements (Nov 2023)

By submitting a response to a solicitation or accepting a contract award, the contractor certifies that, to the best of its knowledge and belief, the contractor has filed all Federal tax returns required during the three years preceding the certification, has not been convicted of a criminal offense under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, and has not, more than 90 days prior to certification, been notified of any unpaid Federal tax assessment for which the liability remains unsatisfied, unless the assessment is the subject of an installment agreement or offer in compromise that has been approved by the Internal Revenue Service and is not in default, or the assessment is the subject of a nonfrivolous administrative or judicial proceeding.

(End of Clause)

FBI-0006 (U) Contractor Suitability Special Security Requirement (SSR) (Nov 2023)

Access to FBI facilities and information is subject to specific security and suitability requirements. The FBI reserves the right and prerogative to deny and/or restrict facility and information access of any contractor employee determined by the FBI, at any time prior to or during performance, to be unsuitable for access and/or present a risk of compromising sensitive government information to which he or she would have access to under this contract. Contractors will be allotted a reasonable amount of time, determined by the government, to replace the employee found not suitable for contract performance. Failure to replace the employee may result in a no cost termination by the government.

FBI-0009 Personnel Security - Contract Security Requirements from Acquisition Security Unit (ASU) (Nov 2023)

1.1 Personnel Security Requirements:

The administrative control and maintenance of accurate records of contractors has been identified by both the Intelligence Community and FBI Executive Management as a matter of concern. With the continuous dependency on contractors to support the FBI, to include access to FBI facilities and information, if a procurement is expected to result in the acquisition of services involving the assignment of contractor personnel to FBI locations the Program Management Officer/Contracting Officer's Technical Representative (COTR), in coordination with the assigned Chief Security Officer, are required to identify during procurement planning stages, whether an acquisition will require assignment of contractor personnel to FBI locations, and therefore require the anticipated contract to include the Special Security Clause identified below in 1.2.

15F06724Q0000142 Page 18 of 77

1.2 Special Security Requirements:

Security Requirements Applicable to Contractor Personnel Assigned to FBI Locations:

Requirements are applicable to all individuals to be assigned to FBI locations, to include those identified as "Key Personnel", if specified in the contract. The contractor shall plan for expected attrition through advanced preparation and submission of required information. Award of this contract is anticipated to result in assignment of contractor personnel to FBI controlled or occupied space. Security and ethical conduct requirements, specific to the contract, to include a copy of the "Contractor & FBI Employees Ethics Standards Factsheet" are provided. Any questions that the contractor or contractor personnel may have on the applicability of these requirements shall be addressed to the Contracting Officer's Security Representative or (name of Chief Security Officer), Chief Security Officer, at (telephone number).

As such, all contractor personnel assigned to such space must be briefed, in advance of arrival, by the contractor on the provided FBI policies and procedures, as identified in the contract, regarding ethical conduct and security requirements.

A list of assigned Contractor personnel and verification of their briefing, shall be provided to the cognizant contractor security officer for subsequent transmittal to the proper FBI Security Officer assigned oversight of this contract. This list must be provided no later than seven (7) days in advance of the individual's scheduled date of initial performance at an FBI location. Failure to provide the required verification of briefing will result in a delay of the individual's access to the facility.

Additionally, within 15 days from assignment to FBI space, the employee must attend an FBI Security Awareness Briefing, which will further address FBI policies and procedures, as identified in FBI's Policy and Guidance Library. This training is currently satisfied through the contractor employee's attendance at the Security Division's Career Services Management Unit's quarterly contractor's training offered at FBI, 935 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, Washington, DC. The assigned FBI Chief Security Officer will contact the employee with the date and time of their scheduled briefing. Failure to attend this briefing or make arrangements to attend a subsequent briefing will result in immediate removal of the employee from FBI space. If contract performance is impacted as a result of removal of the employee, the contractor may be found in default of the contract.

In the event that the development of information or material is not clearly covered by the contract or regulations, the contractor is required to seek FBI guidance regarding its handling of classified and/or unclassified information. Only such persons who have been authorized by the Contracting Officer and/or the Chief Security Officer/Contracting Officer's Security Representative, if the work is for other than specified personnel, shall be assigned to this work. In this connection, for identification purposes, the contractor will be required to submit the name, address, place and date of birth of all personnel who will be involved in the work hereunder. Said information will be required to be provided to the identified Chief Security Officer not later than seven (7) days in advance of the scheduled date of such work. Information relating to an individual(s) identified as "Key Personnel" should be reported to the Chief Security Officer after the written consent of the Contracting Officer has been received. All contractor personnel who receive a security clearance or access approval under the terms of this contract will be required to execute a FBI specified nondisclosure agreement. The contractor agrees to abide by all applicable FBI security regulations governing personnel, facilities, technical, information systems, communications and protective programs.

The following reporting requirements are to be reported to the identified Chief Security Officer as promptly as possible, but in no event later than two (2) business days after receipt of such knowledge.

a. Adverse Information.

Contractors shall report any adverse information coming to their attention concerning any of their employees supporting this contract. Adverse information is defined as any information that adversely reflect on the integrity

15F06724Q0000142 Page 19 of 77 or character of an employee that suggests that his or her ability to safeguard FBI Sensitive But Unclassified (SBU)/Law Enforcement Sensitive (LES) and/or classified information may be impaired, or that his or her access to the information clearly may not be in the interest of the FBI and/or National Security.

b. Suspicious Contacts.

Contractors shall report efforts by any individual, regardless of nationality, to obtain illegal or unauthorized access to FBI SBU/LES or classified information or to compromise an employee.

c. Change in Employee Status.

Contractors shall report:

1. the death,

2. a name change,

3. change in marital status,

4. change to performance which alters their originally…
