Should the Force Protection Condition (FPCON) change, the government may require changes in contractor security matters or processes.
1.4.5.1 COMSEC/IT Security. All communications with DOD organizations are subject to communications security (COMSEC) review. All telephone communications networks are continually subject to intercept by unfriendly intelligence organizations.

Therefore, the contractor is advised that any time contractor place or receive a call they are subject to COMSEC procedures. The contractor shall ensure wide and frequent dissemination of the above information to all employees dealing with DOD information. The contractor shall abide by all government regulations concerning the authorized use of the government's computer network, including the restriction against using the network to recruit government personnel or advertise job openings.
1.4.5.2 Use of government Information Systems (IS) and access to government networks is a revocable privilege, not a right. Users are the foundation of the DoD strategy and their actions affect the most vulnerable portion of the AEI. Contractor employees shall have a favorable background investigation or hold a security clearance and access approvals commensurate with the level of information processed or available on the system. Contractor employees shall:
a. Comply with the command's Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) for government owned IS and sign an AUP prior to or upon account activation.
b. Complete initial and/or annual Information Assurance (IA) training as defined in the IA Best Business Practices (BBP) training (https://informationassurance.us.army.mil).
c. Mark and safeguard files, output products, and storage media per classification level and disseminate them only to individuals authorized to receive them with a valid need to know.
d. Protect IS and IS peripherals located in their respective areas in accordance with physical security and data protection requirements.
e. Practice safe network and Internet operating principles and take no actions that threaten the integrity of the system or network.
1.4.5.3 Protection of Personally Identifiable Information (PII). The contractor shall protect all PII encountered in the performance of services in accordance with DFARS
224.103 and DoDD 5400.11, Department of Defense Privacy Program, and DoD 5400.11-R. If a PII breach results from the contractor’s violation of the aforementioned policies, the contractor shall bear all notification costs, call-center support costs, and credit monitoring service costs for all individuals who’s PII has been compromised.
1.4.5.4. CAC Requirements: The Common Access Card (CAC) is the DOD Federal Personal Identity Verification (PIV) credential. In accordance with Directive Type Memorandum (DTM) 08-003, December 1, 2008, incorporating Change 5, October 8, 2013, Initial issuance of a CAC requires at a minimum, the completion of FBI fingerprint check with favorable results reflecting "No Record" and submission of a National Agency Check with Inquiries (NACI) to the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), or a DoD-determined equivalent investigation. The issuance of a CAC will be based on four criteria; (a) eligibility for a CAC; (b) verification of DoD affiliation from an authoritative data source; (c) completion of background vetting requirements according to the Federal Information Processing Standards Publication 201-1, Personal Identity Verification (PIV) of Federal Employees and Contractors, March 2006, and DOD Regulation 5200.2-R, Department of Defense Personnel Security Program, January 1987, and (d) verification of a claimed identity. CAC eligible personnel must be registered in the Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System (DEERS) through either an authoritative personnel data feed from the appropriate Service or Agency or Trusted Associate Sponsorship System (TASS).
https://informationassurance.us.army.mil/
1.4.5.4.i. HSPD-12 Background Investigation Requirements: The contractor shall ensure CACs are obtained by all contract or subcontract personnel assigned to work on the government site and by personnel requiring access to a DoD network (and other eligible populations as specified in DTM-08-003 Attachment 3, paragraph 3a.) are required to, at a minimum, have received a favorable FBI fingerprint check and must have submitted to the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) a National Agency Check with Inquiries (NACI) or equivalent/higher investigation. It is the responsibility of the contractor to ensure that all employees requiring an initial background investigation complete a Personnel Security Investigation Portal (PSIP) form at attachment (TBD), at the earliest possible date and that this form is forwarded to the COR immediately. The COR will review the form for completeness and accuracy and forward to the NGB Personnel Security manager who will initiate the investigation process via the PSIP.
Contractor personnel will then receive two e-mail messages; the first will confirm that the request has been received by the Office of Personnel Management, and the second will provide instructions for the completion of the appropriate form via the Electronic Questionnaires for Investigations Processing (e-QIP) system. Upon completion of the e- QIP questionnaire and submittal of all required documents, including fingerprint card to the security manager, the BI will be initiated. The contractor shall ensure all instructions regarding background investigation processing, including those provided verbally, by e-mail or via a government system are complied with immediately. The contractor is cautioned that the entire process from submittal of the PSIP form to return of the FBI fingerprint check may routinely take from 2-6 weeks and shall factor this lead time into its hiring/placement process. The contractor shall make all reasonable efforts to ensure that contractor employees meet CAC eligibility standards upon assignment to the contract and shall be held responsible for delays, failure to meet performance requirements or decreases in efficiency in accordance with the applicable inspection clause.
1.4.5.4.ii. Trusted Associate Sponsorship System (TASS): The contractor is responsible for processing applications for 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."
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 COR or KO.
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 or a COR designated individual if the COR is ineligible to Serve as an AKO Sponsor. Note: If an employee of http://www.us.army.mil/ a contractor 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.
It is recommended that a "Corporate Facility Security Officer" (FSO) be designated to serve as your firm's single point of contact for Background Investigation (BI), the TASS application process and other CAC and security related matters. If a FSO is not established, each contractor employee requiring a CAC will be required to process their own applications.
CAC applications shall be processed through the TASS. The contractor's FSO or contractor employee shall submit requests for a CAC via email to the designated TASS Trusted Agent (TA) before accessing the TASS website. The TASS TA for this requirement will be:
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/.
The FSO or contractor employee will submit completed applications in TASS and will follow up to ensure that the TA is processing the request.
A CAC cannot be issued without evidence that the FSO has initiated a National Agency Check with Written Inquires (NACI).
The government will inform the contractor's applicant, via email, of one of the following:
a. 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 (RAPIDS Site Locator: http://www.dmdc.osd.mil/rsl/).
b. Rejected.* The government, in separate correspondence, will provide reason(s) for rejection.
c. Returned. Additional information or correction to the application required by the contractor employee.
*The contractor shall maintain records of all approved and rejected applications.
At the RAPIDS station, the RAPIDS Verification Officer will verify the contractor by SSN and two forms of identification. Identity source Documents must come from the list of acceptable documents included in Form I-9, OMB No. 115-0136, "Employment Eligibility Verification." Consistent with applicable law, at least one document from the Form I-9 https://www.dmdc.osd.mil/tass/ http://www.dmdc.osd.mil/rsl/ list shall be a valid (unexpired) State or Federal Government-issued picture identification (ID). The Identity documents will be inspected for authenticity and scanned and stored in the DEERS upon issuance of an ID. The photo ID requirement cannot be waived, consistent with applicable statutory requirements. The Verification Officer will capture primary and alternate fingerprints, picture, and updates to DEERS and will then issue a CAC.
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.
The contractor shall return issued CAC's to the DEERS office upon departure or dismissal of each contractor employee. Obtain a receipt for each card and provide to the TA/COR.
The TASS TA for this requirement will be:
