TRUSTED ASSOCIATE SPONSORSHIP

TRUSTED ASSOCIATE SPONSORSHIP SYSTEM (TASS) PROGRAM

(a) The contractor is responsible for processing applications for Common Access Cards (CAC) for every contractor employee who deploys with the military force, OR who has need to access any government computer network in accordance with FAR 52.204-9, “Personal Identity Verification of Contractor Personnel.”

(b) The contractor is responsible for managing requests for new or renewal CAC cards in sufficient time to ensure that all contractor employees have them when needed to perform work under this contract. The norm is at least ten calendar days’ advance notice to the Trusted Agent* (TA), unless there are extenuating circumstances approved by the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) or Contracting Officer. *The COR will be the TA for this contract.

(c) The contractor shall obtain an Army Knowledge Online (AKO) email address for each applicant, including subcontractors, who may be deployed or require logical access to a government computer network. This can be done by going to <http://www.us.army.mil> and register as an “Army Guest” with the sponsor being the COR.

Note: If a contractor employee loses the privilege to access AKO, they lose the ability to renew their CAC.

Therefore, it is critical that contractor employees maintain their AKO accounts.

(d) It is recommended that a “Corporate Facility Security Officer (FSO) be established to serve as the firm’s single point of contact for Trusted Associate Sponsorship System (TASS). If a FSO is not established, each contractor employee requiring a CAC card will be required to process their own applications.

(e) CAC applications must be processed through the DOD’s TASS. The contractor’s FSO or contractor employee shall submit requests for a CAC via email to the TASS Trusted Agent (TA) at <joseph.m.peelish.civ@mail.mil> before accessing the TASS website.

(f) The government will establish a TASS application account for each CAC request and will provide each contractor employee a USER ID and Password via email to the FSO. The FSO or contractor employee shall access the TASS account and complete the CAC application (entering/editing contractor information as applicable) at <https://www.dmdc.osd.mil/tass/operator/consent?continueToUrl=%2Ftass%2Findex.jsp>.

(g) The FSO or contractor employee will submit completed applications in TASS, and will follow up to ensure that the TA is processing the request.

(h) The government will inform the contractor’s applicant via email of one of the following:

- Approved*. Upon approval, the information is transferred to the Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System (DEERS) database and an email notification is sent to the contractor with instructions on obtaining their CAC. The contractor proceeds to a Real-Time Automated Personnel Identification System (RAPIDS) station (<https://www.dmdc.osd.mil/rsl/> provides RAPIDS locations).

- Rejected*. Government in separate correspondence will provide reason(s) for rejection.

- Returned. Additional information, or correction to the application, required by the contractor employee.

*The contractor will maintain records of all approved and rejected applications.

(i) At the RAPIDS station, the RAPIDS Verification Officer will verify the contractor by SSN, and two forms of identification, one of which must be a picture ID. The Verification Officer will capture primary and alternate fingerprints and picture, and updates to DEERS and will then issue a CAC.

(j) Issued CACs shall be for a period of performance not longer than three (3) years or the individual’s contract end date (inclusive of any options) whichever is earlier.

(k) The contractor shall return issued CAC’s to the DEERS office upon return from deployment, departure or dismissal of each contractor employee. A receipt for each card must be obtained and provided to the TA/COR.

(l) A CAC cannot be issued without evidence that a National Agency Check with Written Inquires (NACI) has at least been initiated by the FSO. TASS will be linked to the Joint Personnel Adjudication System (JPAS) in the near future. The TA will have to verify via JPAS that the NACI has been initiated by the FSO before he/she can approve a contractor request for a CAC.

(m) Details and training on TASS are available on AKO at <https://www.us.army.mil/suite/portal/index.jsp> or by contacting the CAC helpdesk at cacsupport@mail.mil or 866-738-3222.

52.204-22 ALTERNATIVE LINE ITEM PROPOSAL (JAN 2017)

(a) The Government recognizes that the line items established in this solicitation may not conform to the Offeror's practices. Failure to correct these issues can result in difficulties in acceptance of deliverables and processing payments. Therefore, the Offeror is invited to propose alternative line items for which bids, proposals, or quotes are requested in this solicitation to ensure that the resulting contract is economically and administratively advantageous to the Government and the Offeror.

(b) The Offeror may submit one or more additional proposals with alternative line items, provided that alternative line items are consistent with subpart 4.10 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation. However, acceptance of an alternative proposal is a unilateral decision made solely at the discretion of the Government. Offers that do not comply with the line items specified in this solicitation may be determined to be nonresponsive or unacceptable.

(End of provision)

52.219-28 POST-AWARD SMALL BUSINESS PROGRAM REREPRESENTATION (JULY 2013)

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause--

Long-term contract means a contract of more than five years in duration, including options. However, the term does not include contracts that exceed five years in duration because the period of performance has been extended for a cumulative period not to exceed six months under the clause at 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, or other appropriate authority.

Small business concern means a concern, including its affiliates, that is independently owned and operated, not dominant in the field of operation in which it is bidding on Government contracts, and qualified as a small business under the criteria in 13 CFR part 121 and the size standard in paragraph (c) of this clause. Such a concern is ``not dominant in its field of operation'' when it does not exercise a controlling or major influence on a national basis in a kind of business activity in which a number of business concerns are primarily engaged. In determining whether dominance exists, consideration shall be given to all appropriate factors, including volume of business, number of employees, financial resources, competitive status or position, ownership or control of materials, processes, patents, license agreements, facilities, sales territory, and nature of business activity.

(b) If the Contractor represented that it was a small business concern prior to award of this contract, the Contractor shall rerepresent its size status according to paragraph (e) of this clause or, if applicable, paragraph (g) of this clause, upon the occurrence of any of the following:

(1) Within 30 days after execution of a novation agreement or within 30 days after modification of the contract to include this clause, if the novation agreement was executed prior to inclusion of this clause in the contract.

(2) Within 30 days after a merger or acquisition that does not require a novation or within 30 days after modification of the contract to include this clause, if the merger or acquisition occurred prior to inclusion of this clause in the contract.

(3) For long-term contracts--

(i) Within 60 to 120 days prior to the end of the fifth year of the contract; and

(ii) Within 60 to 120 days prior to the date specified in the contract for exercising any option thereafter.

(c) The Contractor shall rerepresent its size status in accordance with the size standard in effect at the time of this rerepresentation that corresponds to the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code assigned to this contract. The small business size standard corresponding to this NAICS code can be found at http://www.sba.gov/content/table-small-business-size-standards.

(d) The small business size standard for a Contractor providing a product which it does not manufacture itself, for a contract other than a construction or service contract, is 500 employees.

(e) Except as provided in paragraph (g) of this clause, the Contractor shall make the representation required by paragraph (b) of this clause by validating or updating all its representations in the Representations and Certifications section of the System for Award Management (SAM) and its other data in SAM, as necessary, to ensure that they reflect the Contractor's current status. The Contractor shall notify the contracting office in writing within the timeframes specified in paragraph (b) of this clause that the data have been validated or updated, and provide the date of the validation or update.

(f) If the Contractor represented that it was other than a small business concern prior to award of this contract, the Contractor may, but is not required to, take the actions required by paragraphs (e) or (g) of this clause.

(g) If the Contractor does not have representations and certifications in SAM, or does not have a representation in SAM for the NAICS code applicable to this contract, the Contractor is required to complete the following rerepresentation and submit it to the contracting office, along with the contract number and the date on which the rerepresentation was completed:

The Contractor represents that it ( ) is, ( ) is not a small business concern under NAICS Code - assigned to contract number .

(Contractor to sign and date and insert authorized signer's name and title).

SUBCONTRACTORS (DEC 2013)

(a) Upon receipt of accelerated payments from the Government, the Contractor shall make accelerated payments to its small business subcontractors under this contract, to the maximum extent practicable and prior to when such payment is otherwise required under the applicable contract or subcontract, after receipt of a proper invoice and all other required documentation from the small business subcontractor.
