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 may undergo a Tier 1 investigation with a credit check and must receive a favorable adjudication thereof from FEMA PSD prior to performing work under this contract. (also reference Facility Access).

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 Tier 2 Suitability Background Investigation (T2) 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 Tier 2 Suitability Background Investigation (T2) 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 Tier 4 Suitability Background Investigation (T4) 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 directly to the contractor applicant/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 (OPM) 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 Low Risk T1, Moderate Risk T2S or High Risk T4 are valid for five years from the date that the investigation was completed and closed. Contractor personnel required to undergo a background investigation 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.
