Amendment 00001 (INFORMATIONAL ONLY)
NOTICE TO CONTRACTORS
SUBJECT: Clarification on Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and Cybersecurity Certification Requirements for HVAC Design and Construction
BLUF (Bottom Line Up Front): This notice provides official Government clarification in response to contractor inquiries regarding the handling of CUI and the associated Level 2 certification (Self-Assesment) requirements for the HVAC system project. The required CUI consists of restricted Air Force base as-built drawings, which necessitates the retention of the Level 2 certification (Self-Assesment) requirement to safeguard DoD infrastructure data.
1. Categories of CUI Provided and Generated
Contractor Inquiry: What specific categories of CUI will be provided to or generated by the contractor during contract performance?
Government Clarification: The specific CUI provided to the contractor will consist of as-built drawings and structural schematics for Offutt Air Force base. The contractor must have access to these controlled technical documents to accurately survey, design, and construct the new HVAC system. Furthermore, any derivative engineering plans, updated schematics, or construction deliverables generated by the contractor that incorporate or expose data from the original as-builts must also be categorized, marked, and protected as CUI (specifically, Controlled Technical Information / Critical Infrastructure).
2. Tasks Necessitating Level 2 Certification (Self-Assesment)
Contractor Inquiry: If the Level 2 requirement is retained, could the Government identify the contract tasks that necessitate Level 2 certification?
Government Clarification: The Level 2 cybersecurity requirement is retained. Because the contractor will be handling sensitive installation data, the following specific contract tasks necessitate Level 2 compliance:
-
Receipt and Storage of Base Schematics: Securely receiving and hosting the Air Force base as-built drawings on the contractor's internal contractor information systems.
-
HVAC System Design and Engineering: Accessing and processing the provided CUI to develop, draft, and finalize the HVAC system design.
-
Derivative Document Generation: Creating and storing new construction plans, technical specifications, and project deliverables that derive from the restricted base as-builts.
Execution of this contract inherently requires the contractor to process, store, and transmit CUI on their own unclassified information systems. Therefore, Level 2 (Self-Assesment) must be maintained to adequately safeguard the facility's technical information from unauthorized access or disclosure.
Guidance on how to acquire CMMC Level 2 can be found at the link provided below or the document attached titled "CMMCL2SelfQuickEntryGuide".
