a. Name, address, and telephone number of contractor employees working on the contract.

b. The contract number and contracting agency.

c. The location(s) of service performance and future performance, if known.

d. The date service performance begins.

2. Installation Access Requirements: As prescribed by the DAFFARS 5352.242-9000, Contractor access to Air Force installations, AFI 31-218, Motor Vehicle Traffic Supervision, and DoDM5200.08v3_AFMAN31-101v3, Installation Perimeter Access Control.

The contractor shall obtain base identification, and vehicle passes, if required, for all contractor personnel who make frequent visits to or perform work on the Department of the Air Force installation(s) cited in the contract. Contractor personnel are required to wear or prominently display installation identification badges or contractor-furnished contractor identification badges while visiting or performing work on the installation.

The contractor shall submit a written request on company letterhead to the Contracting Officer (CO) listing the following: contract number, location of work site, start and stop dates, and names of employees and subcontractor employees needing access to the base. The letter will also specify the individual(s) authorized to sign a request for base identification credentials or vehicle passes. The contracting officer will endorse the request and forward it to the issuing base pass and registration office or Security Forces for processing. When reporting to the registration office, the authorized contractor individual(s) should provide a valid driver’s license, current vehicle registration, and valid vehicle insurance certificate to obtain a vehicle pass.

During performance of the service, the contractor shall be responsible for obtaining the required identification for newly assigned personnel and for prompt return of credentials for any employee who no longer requires access to the work site.

Upon completion or termination of the contract or expiration of the identification passes, the prime contractor shall ensure that all base identification passes issued to employees and subcontractor employees are returned to the issuing office.

Failure to comply with these requirements may result in the withholding of final payment.

Vehicle Inspections. All commercial vehicles will be directed to Gate 3 (Kelly St) or Gate 4 (Congressman Dickenson for Gunter) for processing through the Commercial Vehicle Inspection (CVI) Area, when operational. During non-duty hours and holidays, commercial vehicle inspections will be conducted at Gate 1 (Maxwell Blvd) or Gate 4 (Congressman Dickinson Drive) only. Inspection members will conduct thorough inspections of the interior and exterior of the vehicle for items prohibited from the installation such as explosive devices, weapons and ammunition, drugs, and open or closed alcohol containers.

3. REAL ID Act: All Maxwell Air Force Base and Gunter Annex visitors must present a REAL ID-compliant credential to be issued a pass.

REAL ID-compliant cards have a star marking ⭐️on the upper portion of the card. If the card does not have a star marking, it is not REAL ID-compliant and won’t be accepted as proof of identity to board commercial aircraft or access military installations like Maxwell or Gunter.

Those without a REAL ID-compliant driver’s license may also use a U.S. passport or passport card, a Transportation Worker Identification Card (TWIC), a Veteran Health Identification Card (VHIC), or a combination of the following documents to be issued a pass:

· An original or certified true copy of a birth certificate with a raised seal

· A social security card

· A driver’s license issued by a state, territory, or the District of Columbia that is not REAL ID-compliant.

All three documents must reflect the same name (or a documented former name through legal name change documents such as a court order, marriage certificate, or divorce decree).
