H - Special Contract Requirements

Background Security Requirements

BACKGROUND INVESTIGATIONS

All contractor personnel who require access to DHS or FEMA information systems, routine access to DHS or FEMA facilities, or access to sensitive information, including but not limited to Personally Identifiable Information

(PII), shall be subject to a full background investigation commensurate with the level of the risk associated with the job function or work being performed. FEMA’s Personnel Security Division (PSD) will determine the risk designation for each contractor position by comparing the functions and duties of the position against those of a same or similar federal position, applying the same standard for evaluating the associated potential for impact on the integrity and efficiency of federal service.

Low Risk without Information System Access

Contractor personnel occupying positions or performing functions with a

Low Risk designation and who do not require access to DHS or FEMA information systems shall undergo a National Agency Check with

Inquiries (NACI) and a credit check and must receive a favorable adjudication thereof from FEMA PSD prior to performing work under this contract.

Low Risk with Information System Access

Contractor personnel occupying positions or performing functions with a

Low Risk designation and who require access to DHS or FEMA information systems shall undergo a Moderate-Risk Background

Investigation (MBI) and must receive a favorable adjudication thereof from FEMA PSD prior to performing work under this contract.

Moderate Risk

Contractor personnel occupying positions or performing functions with a

Moderate Risk designation shall undergo a Moderate-Risk Background

Investigation (MBI) and must receive a favorable adjudication thereof from FEMA PSD prior to performing work under this contract.

High Risk

Contractor personnel occupying positions or performing functions with a

High Risk designation shall undergo a Background Investigation (BI) and must receive a favorable adjudication thereof from FEMA PSD prior to performing work under this contract.

Background Investigation Process

To initiate the request to process contractor personnel, the Contractor shall provide the FEMA Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) with all required information and comply with all necessary instructions to complete Section II of the FEMA Form 121-3-1-6, “Contract

Fitness/Security Screening Request.” The FEMA COR shall ensure that all other applicable sections of the FEMA Form 121-3-1-6 are complete prior to submitting the form to FEMA PSD for processing. The Contractor shall also provide the FEMA COR with completed OF 306, “Declaration for Federal Employment,” forms for all contractor personnel.

Contractor personnel who already have a favorably adjudicated background investigation, may be eligible to perform work under this contract without further processing by FEMA PSD if

• the investigation was completed within the last five years,

• it meets or exceeds the minimum requirement for the position they will occupy or functions they will perform on this contract,

• the contractor personnel have not had a break in employment since the prior favorable adjudication, and

• FEMA PSD has verified the investigation and confirmed that no new derogatory information has been disclosed which may require a reinvestigation.

FEMA PSD will notify the COR of the names of the contractor personnel eligible to work based on prior, favorable adjudication. The COR will, in turn, notify the Contractor of the names of the favorably adjudicated contractor personnel, at which time the favorably adjudicated contractor personnel will be eligible to begin work under this contract.

For those contractor personnel who do not have an acceptable, prior, favorable adjudication or who otherwise require reinvestigation, FEMA

PSD will issue an electronic notification via email to the contractor personnel that contains the following documents, which are incorporated into this contract by reference, along with a link to the Office of Personnel

Management’s Electronic Questionnaires for Investigation Processing (e-

QIP) system and instructions for submitting the necessary information:

• Standard Form 85P, “Questionnaire for Public Trust Positions Optional

Form 306, “Declaration for Federal Employment”

• SF 87, “Fingerprint Card” (2 copies)

• DHS Form 11000-6, “Non-Disclosure Agreement”

• DHS Form 11000-9, “Disclosure and Authorization Pertaining to

Consumer Reports Pursuant to the Fair Credit Reporting Act”

FEMA PSD will only accept complete packages consisting of all of the above document and Standard Form 85P, which must be completed electronically through the Office of Personnel Management’s e-QIP system. The Contractor is responsible for ensuring that all contractor personnel timely and properly submit all required background information.

Once contractor personnel have properly submitted the complete package of all required background information, FEMA’s Personnel

Security Division, at its sole discretion, may grant contractor personnel temporary eligibility to perform work under this contract prior to completion of the full background investigation if the

Personnel Security Division’s initial review of the contractor personnel’s background information reveals no issues of concern. In such cases, FEMA’s Personnel Security Division will provide notice of such temporary eligibility to the COR who will then notify the Prime Contractor, at which time the identified contractor personnel will be temporarily eligible to begin work under this contract. Neither the Prime Contractor nor the contractor personnel has any right to such a grant of temporary eligibility.

The grant of such temporary eligibility shall not be considered as assurance that the contactor personnel will remain eligible to perform work under this contract upon completion of and final adjudication of the full background investigation.

Upon favorable adjudication of the full background investigation, FEMA’s

Personnel Security Division will update the contractor personnel’s security file and take no further action. In any instance where the final adjudication results in an unfavorable determination FEMA’s Personnel

Security Division will notify the contractor personnel directly, in writing, of the decision and will provide the COR with the name(s) of the contractor personnel whose adjudication was unfavorable. The COR will then forward that information to the Contractor. Contractor personnel who receive an unfavorable adjudication shall be ineligible to perform work under this contract. Unfavorable adjudications are final and not subject to review or appeal.

Continued Eligibility and Reinvestigation

Eligibility determinations based on a NACI, MBI or BI are valid for five years from the date that the investigation was completed and closed.

Contractor personnel required to undergo a background investigation

(NACI, MBI, or BI, as required) to perform work under this contract shall be ineligible to perform work under this contract upon the expiration the background investigation unless and until the contractor personnel have undergone a reinvestigation and FEMA’s Personnel Security Division has renewed their eligibility to perform work under this contract.

Exclusion by Contracting Officer

The Contracting Officer, independent of FEMA’s Personnel Security

Division, may direct the Contractor to exclude from working on this contract any contractor found or deemed to be unfit or whose continued employment on the contract is deemed contrary to the public interest or inconsistent with the best interest of the agency.

FACILITY ACCESS

The Contractor shall comply with FEMA Directive 121-1 “FEMA Personal

Identity Verification Guidance,” FEMA Directive 121-3 “Facility Access,” and FEMA Manual 121-3-1 “FEMA Credentialing Access Manual,” to arrange for contractor personnel’s access to FEMA facilities, which includes, but is not limited to, arrangements to obtain any necessary identity badges for contractor personnel.

Contractor personnel working within any FEMA facility who do not require access to DHS or FEMA IT systems and do not qualify for a PIV Card may be issued a Facility Access Card (FAC). FACs cannot exceed 180 days; all contractors requiring access greater than 180 days will need to qualify for and receive a PIV card before being allowed facility access beyond 180 days.

Contractor personnel shall not receive a FAC until they have submitted a

SF 87, “Fingerprint Card,” and receive approval from FEMA PSD.

Contractor personnel using a FAC for access to FEMA facilities must be escorted in Critical Infrastructure areas (i.e., server rooms, weapons rooms, mechanical rooms, etc.) at all times.

FEMA may deny facility access to any contractor personnel whom

FEMA’s Office of the Chief Security Officer has determined to be a potential security threat.

The Contractor shall notify the FEMA COR of all terminations/resignations within five calendar days of occurrence. The

Contractor must account for all forms of Government-provided identification issued to contractor employees under a contract (i.e., the

PIV cards or other similar badges) must return such identification to

FEMA as soon as any of the following occurs:

• When no longer needed for contract performance.

• Upon completion of a contractor employee’s employment.

• Upon contract completion or termination.

If an identification card or building pass is not available to be returned, the Contractor shall submit a report to the FEMA COR, referencing the pass or card number, name of the individual to whom it was issued, and the last known location and disposition of the pass or card.

The Contractor or contractor personnel’s failure to return all DHS- or

FEMA-issued identification cards and building passes upon expiration, upon the contractor personnel’s removal from the contract, or upon demand by DHS or FEMA may subject the contractor personnel and the

Contractor to civil and criminal liability.
