G-232-H005 SUPPLEMENTAL INSTRUCTIONS REGARDING INVOICING (NAVSEA) (JAN 2019)

(a) For other than firm fixed priced contract line item numbers (CLINs), the Contractor agrees to segregate costs incurred under this contract/task order (TO), as applicable, at the lowest level of performance, either at the sub line item number (SLIN) or CLIN level, rather than at the total contract/TO level, and to submit invoices reflecting costs incurred at that level. Supporting documentation in Wide Area Workflow (WAWF) for invoices shall include summaries of work charged during the period covered as well as overall cumulative summaries by individual labor categories, rates, and hours (both straight time and overtime) invoiced; as well as, a cost breakdown of other direct costs (ODCs), materials, and travel, by technical instruction (TI), SLIN, or CLIN level. For other than firm fixed price subcontracts, subcontractors are also required to provide labor categories, rates, and hours (both straight time and overtime) invoiced; as well as, a cost breakdown of ODCs, materials, and travel invoiced. Supporting documentation may be encrypted before submission to the prime contractor for WAWF invoice submittal.

Subcontractors may email encryption code information directly to the Contracting Officer and Contracting Officer Representative (COR). Should the subcontractor lack encryption capability, the subcontractor may also email detailed supporting cost information directly to the Contracting Officer and COR; or other method as agreed to by the Contracting Officer.

(b) Contractors submitting payment requests and receiving reports to WAWF using either Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) or Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) shall separately send an email notification to the COR and Contracting Officer on the same date they submit the invoice in WAWF. No payments shall be due if the contractor does not provide the COR and Contracting Officer email notification as required herein.

Section H - Special Contract Requirements

52.204-2 SECURITY REQUIREMENTS (AUG 1996)

(a) This clause applies to the extent that this contract involves access to information classified "Confidential," "Secret," or "Top Secret."

(b) The Contractor shall comply with (1) the Security Agreement (DD Form 441), including the National Industrial Security Program Operating Manual (DOD 5220.22-M); and (2) any revisions to that manual, notice of which has been furnished to the Contractor.

(c) If, subsequent to the date of this contract, the security classification or security requirements under this contract are changed by the Government and if the changes cause an increase or decrease in security costs or otherwise affect any other term or condition of this contract, the contract shall be subject to an equitable adjustment as if the changes were directed under the Changes clause of this contract.

(d) The Contractor agrees to insert terms that conform substantially to the language of this clause, including this paragraph (d) but excluding any reference to the Changes clause of this contract, in all subcontracts under this contract that involve access to classified information.

PERFORMANCE ON GOVERNMENT SITE

CONTRACTOR REQUIREMENTS FOR PERFORMANCE ON A GOVERNMENT SITE (APR 2018)

(a) Control of Contractor Personnel The contractor shall comply with the requirements of NUWCDIVNPTINST 5500.4C regarding performance at Government facilities. All persons engaged in work while on Government property shall be subject to search of their persons and vehicles at any time by the Government, and shall report any known or suspected security violations to the Security Department of the contracting activity. Assignment, transfer, and reassignment of contractor personnel shall be at the discretion of the contractor. However, the contractor shall remove from contract performance any person who endangers life, property, or national security through improper conduct. Such removal shall not relieve the contractor from meeting its contractual obligations and shall not be considered an excusable delay as defined in

FAR 52.249-14.

(b) Contract Personnel Administration The contractor is responsible for managing its employees and guarding against any actions that are of the nature of personal services or give the perception that personal services are being provided. If the contractor feels that any actions constitute, or are perceived to constitute personal services, it is the contractor's responsibility to notify the PCO immediately in accordance with the clause FAR 52.243-7. When on-site in Government office spaces, laboratories, test facilities, or ship assets, Contractor employees shall be clearly identified as a Contractor (e.g.

utilizing Common Access Cards (CACs) and sign identifications in office spaces). In addition, Contractor employees shall identify themselves as Contractor personnel when answering telephones and sending emails.

Contractor personnel cannot lead/manage/supervise Government personnel. Contractor program /project managers/Senior Technical Representative (STR) shall be clearly identified and known as such by Government employees. As circumstances permit, periodic meetings shall be conducted between the COR and the Contractor organization program manager/project manager.

(c) Early Dismissal and Closure of Government Facilities

When a Government facility is closed or Federal employees are dismissed early (due to severe weather, security threat, security exercise, or a facility related problem) that prevents personnel from working, onsite contractor personnel regularly assigned to work at that facility shall follow the same reporting and/or departure directions given to Government personnel. The contractor shall not direct charge to the contract for such time off, but shall follow parent company policies regarding taking leave (administrative or other). Non-essential contractor personnel, who are not required to remain at or report to the facility, shall follow their parent company policy regarding whether they should go/stay home or report to another company facility. Subsequent to an early dismissal and during periods of inclement weather, onsite contractors should monitor radio and television announcements before departing for work to determine if the facility is closed or operating on a delayed arrival basis.

(d) When Federal employees are excused from work due to a holiday or a special event (that is unrelated to severe weather, a security threat, or a facility related problem), on site contractors shall continue working established work hours or take leave in accordance with parent company policy. Those contractor employees who take leave shall not direct charge the non-working hours to the contract. Contractors are responsible for predetermining and disclosing their charging practices for early dismissal, delayed openings, or closings in accordance with the FAR, applicable cost accounting standards, and company policy. Contractors shall follow their disclosed charging practices during the contract period of performance, and shall not follow any verbal directions to the contrary. The Contracting Officer will make the determination of cost allowability for time lost due to facility closure in accordance with FAR, applicable Cost Accounting Standards, and the Contractor's established accounting policy.
