THE BUREAU OF FISCAL SERVICE (BFS) ADDENDUM TO AB NO. 05-12R1

PERSONNEL SECURITY AND SUITABILITY REQUIREMENTS FOR CONTRACTORS AND SUBCONTRACTORS

This contract was evaluated as "Low Risk." Performance of this contract requires contractor and subcontractor personnel have a National Agency Check w/ Inquiries (NACI) level background investigation initiated, and a favorable FBI fingerprint check completed before being allowed unsupervised logical or physical access to Government facilities or IT systems and information. A Federal Government issued personnel identification card must be issued before unsupervised physical access to a government facility or logical access to Government IT system or information is permitted. The Contracting Officer Representative (COR) will be the sponsoring official and will coordinate with Personnel Security to arrange the background investigation and credentialing process.

At least two weeks before start of contract performance, the Contractor will identify all contractor and subcontractor personnel who will require physical and/or logical access for the performance of work under this contract. Identified contractor and subcontractor personnel will complete and return the below listed documents to the COR. The Contractor must make all contractor and subcontractor personnel available at the place and time specified by the COR in order to initiate the credentialing process.

• OF 306 (fillable forms available at http://www.opm.gov/forms/html/of.asp)

A National Agency Check w/ Inquiries (NACI) investigation, which satisfies HSPD-12 background investigation requirements, will be completed for the applicable contractor and subcontractor personnel. This process provides the government with a means to positively identify and make a suitability determination regarding the applicant under this contract.

All contractor and subcontractor personnel working under this contract will be either US citizens or possess Legal Permanent Resident Alien (LPRA) status. Naturalized US citizens will be required to provide an original Naturalization Certificate or US Passport to verify their status. Legal Permanent Resident Aliens will be required to provide their original I-551, Alien Registration Card, issued by the US Immigration and Naturalization Service.

Contractor and subcontractor personnel are required to give full, frank, and truthful answers to relevant and material questions needed to reach a suitability determination. Refusal or failure to furnish or authorize provision of information may constitute grounds for denial or revocation of credentials. The Government's investigative personnel may contact the contractor and subcontractor personnel being screened or investigated in person, by telephone, or in writing. The contractor will ensure that all contractor and subcontractor personnel are available for such contact and that timely responses to investigative requests are provided.

RFQ-TFSAFSA15Q0013 Page 5

Alternatively, if it is verified that an individual is already vetted by another agency at the appropriate level of background investigation, and the investigation was completed less than five (5) years prior to the start of the contractor's initial logical/physical access date, then further investigation may not be necessary. If this is applicable, provide the COR with the name of the agency that conducted the investigation and completion date, if known.

If at any point during this process investigative results are unfavorably adjudicated, the individual will be denied further admittance to work on the contract, including both physical and/or logical access. In the event of a disagreement between the Contractor and the Government concerning the suitability of an individual to perform work under this contract, the Government shall have the right of final determination.

During performance of the contract, the Contractor will keep the COR apprised of any changes in personnel to ensure that work performance is not delayed by compliance with credentialing process. Identification cards that are lost, damaged, or stolen must be reported to the COR and Issuing Office within 18 hours. Replacement will be at the Contractor's expense. If re-issuance of expired credentials is needed, it will be coordinated through the COR.

At the end of the contract performance, or when a contractor employee is no longer working under this contract, the contractor will ensure that all identification cards are returned to the COR. If the contractor does not return all identification cards then last payment may be withheld.

This requirement must be incorporated into any subcontracts that require subcontractor personnel to have regular and routine unsupervised physical access to a federally controlled facility for six (6) months or more, or any unsupervised logical access to a federally controlled information system.

Physical Access: Is the ability to enter a federally owned facility or federally leased space:

Physical access requirements will be determined upon completion of a sensitivity determination of the contract by Personnel Security.

Logical Access: Ability to access federal IT systems or databases – applies to everyone regardless of how long access is required and whether within a federal facility or by remote connectivity.
