SECURITY REQUIREMENTS: FACILITY ACCESS AND

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AUG 2016

(a) All Contractor employees must have an "Enter on Duty" (EOD) approval issued by the Bureau Personnel Security Office (PSO) before they begin performing work on any Bureau contract. The Contractor must ensure that all employees requesting an EOD are citizens of the United States of America, or an alien who has been lawfully admitted for permanent residence or employment (indicated by immigration status) as evidenced by Immigration and Naturalization Service documentation and the employee must have resided in the United States for a minimum of 3 years. The EOD may be issued in advance of a completed Background Investigation and may be rescinded by the PSO at any time.

However, all contractors who require network access are required to complete the identity proofing process, and must be able to obtain a successfully adjudicated National Criminal History Check (NCHC) and National Agency Check with Inquiries (NACI) or higher to stay on the contract.

(b) Starting Work - Contractor employees with an approved EOD may begin performing unsupervised work on Bureau contracts. To remain on the contract, the Contractor employees will need a completed favorable Background Investigation.

(c) Rescission of EOD - The PSO may rescind the EOD at any time. This may occur as the result of additional information obtained or the final results of the background investigation.

(d) Background Investigation - Contractor employees who will have unsupervised access to Bureau facilities, access to the Department of the Interior (DOI) information technology (IT) systems or DOI data, or will develop custom applications, must have a favorably adjudicated background investigation from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM). Existing clearances at the same or higher level are acceptable upon the PSO’s review and approval. If the employee does not already have a complete investigation, they must apply for one. The employee may begin work with an EOD, but must receive a favorable background investigation to continue working on the contract. The background investigation includes obtaining fingerprints through a USAccess Credentialing Center for an FBI criminal history and a credit report. Once the investigation has been scheduled by OPM, the Bureau will receive advance reports. If those reports are favorable, the Bureau PSO will issue the EOD. The type of background mailto:IPPCustomerSupport@fiscal.treasury.gov investigation required is based on the risk/sensitivity level designation. Citizenship requirements and guidance for determining the appropriate type of background investigation required for the designated risk/sensitivity level are contained in DOI Departmental Manual (DM) Part 441. The DM is available on the Internet at http://elips.doi.gov/app_home/index.cfm?fuseaction=home.

(e) Electronic Questionnaire for Investigations Processing (e-QIP) – The Bureau uses the e-QIP for all background investigations or reinvestigations. To initiate an investigation, the Contractor, in collaboration with the COR, will complete an e-QIP Request Form. This request form is available through the COR.

The COR will submit the completed request form to the Bureau PSO. The PSO will enter the information into e-QIP to either establish a new applicant profile or determine if an existing investigation that meets Bureau requirements is on file. The PSO will then contact the applicant to provide additional information and instructions. Generally, the Contractor is required to complete the following forms:

▪ e-QIP application (on-line)

▪ Fair Credit Release

▪ OF-306

▪ Fingerprints via USAccess Credentialing Centers

The Contractor shall complete the required background investigation forms and submit them to the PSO.

The PSO shall determine if individuals meet the required background investigation standards and citizenship requirements, and then make a suitability determination. Minimum standards used in suitability determinations are contained in the DOI Departmental Manual Part 441. The Government will pay for any background investigations required for contractor employees. If the Contractor employee’s background investigation is returned as unfavorable, the Government reserves the right to request reimbursement of the actual costs for the investigation from the Contractor.

(f) Reinvestigation - Contractor employees occupying high risk public trust positions must be reinvestigated every 5 years. A reinvestigation may be initiated prior to the normal periodic reinvestigation schedule when an individual’s continued ability to meet the minimum background investigation standards is in question. The electronic fingerprints on file in the USAccess system will be electronically submitted to OPM for the reinvestigation. The PSO shall review the records and documentation and make the suitability determination.

(g) Disputes - In the event of a disagreement between the Contractor and the Government concerning the suitability of a particular employee to perform work under this contract, the Government has the right of final determination. Determinations under this requirement are subject to the Disputes Clause, FAR 52.233-1. Failure of the Contractor to comply with the requirements of this clause could constitute grounds for termination for default.

(h) Physical Security Requirements - DOI Access Cards.

(1) Contractor employees must have a DOI Access Card before being given unsupervised access to a Government facility.

(2) To gain unsupervised access to Government facilities, Contractor employees must present their DOI Access Card for examination by the security guard or electronically authenticate their DOI Access Card, as required. Contractor employees must keep their DOI Access Card in a shielded card holder, and visually display the card at all times while in the facility. Refusal or repeated neglect to display the DOI Access Card may result in limiting Contractor employee’s access to Government facilities or revoking of authorized access.

(3) When a Contractor employee is no longer working under this award, the Contractor is responsible for returning all DOI Access Cards, keys, and other Government property issued to that employee. The Contactor shall coordinate all returns with the COR. The COR is responsible for ensuring the Contractor complies with these requirements. However, failure by the Contractor to comply with these requirements may result in the Contractor’s liability for all costs associated with correcting any resultant breech in building security.

(i) Issuance & Maintenance - DOI Access Cards

(1) Process: To obtain a DOI Access Card the COR will use the online DOIAccess System to initiate the access request. Contractor employees will receive email notificat ions to enroll at a USAccess Credentialing Center with two forms of identification, and after adjudication, a second email notification to pick up and activate their DOI Access Card. The Contractor employee shall schedule an enrollment appointment at a USAccess center at least two weeks prior to the targeted EOD.

(2) Contractor Responsibilities: Contractor employees must complete actions in a timely manner to prepare for on-boarding and access to DOI network resources. The Contractor shall allow their personnel sufficient time to schedule and attend an enrollment appointment at the USAccess center prior to the contract start date. If the Contractor employee’s DOI Access Card becomes lost or stolen, the contractor employee shall notify the COR immediately to request a new DOI Access Card.

(3) COR Responsibilities: The COR (or designated individual) and Contractor shall maintain a listing of all Contractor employees who received a DOI Access Card, the date the card was issued, the date the electronic certificates expire (3 years from issue date), and the date the DOI Access Card expires (5 years from issue date). If the Contractor employee’s DOI Access Card or certificates will expire before the contract is completed, the COR (or designated individual) and Contractor is responsible for ensuring that the Contractor employee visits a USAccess center to update certificates on the existing card or obtain a new DOI Access Card. No later than one week prior to the DOI Access Card’s certificate or card expiration, the COR (or designated individual) shall notify the Contractor that DOI Access Card actions are required. The COR (or designated individual) and the Contractor shall update their listing to reflect the new issue date, certificate expiration date and card expiration date.

(j) Information Technology Security Requirements.

(1) Training – If contractor employees require access to any DOI/IT systems, the Contractor shall ensure its employees complete all Bureau/DOI required IT security training. The Contractor’s employees shall complete this training before being granted access to Bureau/DOI data or being issued network access.

The current training requirements are: (i) annual end-user IT Security Awareness, (ii) annual IT Resources Rules of Behavior, and (iii) annual Role-Based Security training for IT professionals. The Contractor shall comply with all Bureau/DOI IT security training requirements in effect during contract performance. The COR will notify the Contractor of all Bureau mandatory IT training. The Contractor shall submit training completion certificates to the COR for all required training. Failure to meet this training requirement may result in removal of the contractor employee from the contract. The Bureau will determine if the contractor can later return to the contract.

(2) Access to Contractor’s Facilities for IT audit purposes - The Contractor shall afford Bureau and the Department of the Interior Office of Inspector General access to the Contractor’s and subcontractors’ facilities, installations, operations, documentation, databases, and personnel used in performance of the contract. Access shall be provided to the extent required to carry out a program of IT inspection, investigation, and audit that will safeguard against threats and hazards to the integrity, availability, and confidentiality of Government data or to the function of computer systems operated on behalf of the Government and to preserve evidence of computer crime. If the Contractor questions the Government employee’s right to access its facilities, it should contact the CO for resolution.

(3) Contractor Location - Custom software development and outsourced operations shall be located in the United States to the maximum extent practical.
