2.3.3
Partnering
To increase the likelihood of successful performance of this contract, the Government requires cohesive partnerships with its Contractors and subcontractors. Key stakeholders, including the supported commands who will receive services, principal individuals from NAVFAC, the performance assessment team, and representative(s) of the installation(s) will be invited to participate in the partnering process. Key members of the prime and subcontractors teams, including senior management personnel must participate. The partnership will draw on the strength of each organization in an effort to achieve quality contract services done right the first time, within the contract price, as scheduled, and without any safety mishaps.

Partnering should accomplish three goals:

- The first goal is to develop a cohesive team with common purpose, commitment and established communication processes.

- The second goal of partnering is contract specific, identifying risks and opportunities for the team to address.

- The third goal is to sustain the Partnership throughout the contract by identifying and addressing issues that affect the Partnership.

2.3.3.1
Formal Partnering
The initial session should be scheduled concurrent with the Pre-Performance Conference and held no later than 30 days after award. The initial Partnering Meeting will be at least one day in duration and held <<Note to Spec Writer: Select one of the two following options that applies and tailor to the local requirements, e.g., at a Government provided facility as designated by the KO – OR – at a neutral location off the installation that is acceptable to the Contractor and to the Government>>. Follow-on sessions should be scheduled every three to six months and typically last a half day or less. The frequency, duration, and locations of follow-on sessions should be agreed to by both parties during the initial Partnering Meeting. The Contractor shall pay all costs associated with the partnering effort including facilitator, meeting room, and other incidental items. Before the partnering session, the Contractor shall coordinate with the facilitator the requirements for incidental items (audio-visual equipment, computer(s), two easels, flipchart paper, colored markers, note paper, pens/pencils, colored flash cards, etc.) and have these items available at the partnering session. The Contractor will provide copies of any documents used for the Partnering Meeting for distribution to all attendees. The facilitator must be acceptable to both the Contractor and the Government. The participants shall pay their own costs for meals, lodging, and transportation associated with partnering.
2.3.3.2
Contract Partnering Administration
Upon award, the ACO will contact the Contractor, supported command(s), Region, and Installation(s) stakeholders, and the performance assessment team to discuss implementation of partnering. A partnership agreement, The Charter, should be in place as early as possible so issues arising, even before work begins, can be resolved using the issues resolution process. Replacement of Core Management Team members (stakeholders who attended the initial session and manage the contract work day-to-day) is discouraged since it will disrupt the synergy that has been developed. If replacement of a team member proves to be unavoidable, a follow-on partnering session must be held to officially turn the responsibilities of the position over to the new member.

The Core Management Team consisting of the attendees below must be present during the initial and all follow-on partnering sessions. These are the core mandatory attendees. Other stakeholders may attend if they desire or as recommended by the partners.

DBIDS Program
Defense Biometric Identification System (DBIDS) is an enterprise identity management and perimeter installation access control solution. DBIDS increases installation security and communications by receiving frequent database updates on changes to personnel/credential status, law enforcement warrants, lost/stolen cards, and force protection conditions. The system provides a continuous vetting anytime the DBIDS card is scanned at an installation entry point.

If the vendor/contractor employee passes the background screening process, the DBIDS credential that is issued to the vendor/contractor employee is valid for the term of the card. Periodic background screenings are conducted to verify continued DBIDS participation and installation access privileges.

Contractors or vendors who need assistance in transitioning from NCACS to a DBIDS temporary pass to a DBIDS card can contact the installation Pass & ID office or Visitor Control Center.

1. If you currently have an Navy Commercial Access Control System (NCACS) card (used with RapidGate), the following is required to get a DBIDS credential:

a) Present your NCACS Card and a completed copy of the SECNAV FORM 5512/1 to the base Visitor Control Center representative.

b) The VCC will pull up your information in the computer, ensuring all information is current and correct.

c) Once your information is validated, a temporary DBIDS credential is provided.

d) Your temporary credential will have an expiration date, prior to which you will need to obtain your permanent DBIDS credential (~ 90 days).

e) For each additional U.S. Navy installation to which you need access, the first time you visit you only need to bring your DBIDS credential and statement of purpose for base access when arriving at the Visitor Control Center.

f) The representative will enter base access authorization.

2. If you do NOT have an NCACS Card, the following is required to obtain a DBIDS credential:

a) Present a letter or official document from my government sponsoring organization that provides the purpose for your access.

b) Present valid identification, such as a passport or Real ID Act-compliant state driver's license.

c) Present a completed copy of the SECNAV 5512/1 form to obtain your background check.

d) Upon completion of the background check, the Visitor Control Center representative will complete the DBIDS enrollment process, which includes your photo, finger prints, base restrictions, and several other assessments; after all this is done, you will be provided with your new DBIDS credential.

Refer to J-0200000-05(a) for DBIDS Standard Operating Procedures. Refer to J-0200000-05(b) for SECNAV 5512/1 form.
