b. All non-resident/non-immigrant aliens granted access to TYAD are required to be escorted by Government personnel. One Government escort can accommodate a maximum of two non-resident/non-immigrant aliens.
c. Due to limited availability of Government personnel, contractors shall not be permitted to employ non-resident/non-immigrant aliens as part of the contractor's on-site workforce. Limited exceptions to this restriction may be considered on a case-by-case basis. Such exceptions shall only be considered where a specialized skill or trade is not otherwise available, and even under such circumstances would only be considered for very limited duration, e.g., a few hours/days. However, even if limited exception is considered, access may still be denied. Contractors whose personnel are either denied entry to TYAD or permitted limited entry to TYAD due to the security requirements pertaining to non-resident aliens/non-immigrants are not relieved of their obligation to provide the required contract performance and must do so at no additional cost to the Government. Any contractor failing to perform or that fails to perform in a timely manner under such circumstances may be terminated for default or other contractual remedies as appropriate.
d. Due to limited availability of Government personnel, visitors requiring escort may not be permitted access, or access may be limited to a certain time and duration.

Any contractor employee (s) already on site who have not been screened, will be subject to security screening. This requirement is inclusive of on-site supervisory or managerial personnel and sub-contractor personnel that the Contractor anticipates will be performing work or visiting on-site. This security screening does not relieve the contractor of any responsibilities to conduct thorough pre-employment background checks and drug screening. Contractor workers will not be granted access to the work site until security screening is completed and access is approved. Any contractor personnel on site who fail screening will not be permitted further access to TYAD.
4. SUBMISSION OF BIDS OR PROPOSALS
