I.5 [OMBUDSMAN]{.underline}

(JUNE 2000)

(a) An ombudsman has been appointed to hear and facilitate the
    resolution of concerns from offerors, potential offerors, and
    contractors during the preaward and postaward phases of this
    acquisition. When requested, the ombudsman will maintain strict
    confidentiality as to the source of the concern. The existance of
    the ombudsman is not to diminish the authority of the contracting
    officer, the Source Evaluation Board, or the selection official.
    Further, the ombudsman does not participate in the evaluation of
    proposals, the source selection process, or the adjudication of
    formal contract disputes. Therefore, before consulting with an
    ombudsman, interested parties must first address their concerns,
    issues, disagreements, and/or recommendations to the contracting
    officer for resolution.

(b) If resolution cannot be made by the contracting officer, interested
    parties may contact the installation ombudsman, Debra L. Johnson,
    Building 1, Room 457B, 281-483-4157, facsimile 281-483-5100, e-mail,
    debra.1.johnson1@jsc.nasa.gov. Concerns, issues, disagreements, and
    recommendations which cannot be resolved at the installation may be
    referred to the NASA ombudsman, the Director of the Contract
    Management Division, at 202-358-0422, facsimile 202-358-3083,
    e-mail, sthomps1@hq.nasa.gov. Please do not contact the ombudsman to
    request copies of the solicitation, verify offer due date, or
    clarify technical requirements. Such inquiries shall be directed to
    the Contracting Officer or as specified elsewhere in this document.

(End of clause)

I. 13 [RESERVED]{.underline}

> I. 14 [SECURITY REQUIREMENTS FOR UNCLASSIFIED INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY
> RESOURCES]{.underline} (NASA FAR 1852.204-76) (July 2002)

\(a\) The Contractor shall be responsible for Information Technology
security for all systems connected to a NASA network or operated by the
Contractor for NASA, regardless of location. This clause is applicable
to all or any part of the contract that includes information technology
resources or services in which the Contractor must have physical or
electronic access to NASA's sensitive information contained in
unclassified systems that directly support the mission of the Agency.
This includes information technology, hardware, software, and the
management, operation, maintenance, programming, and system
administration of computer systems, networks, and telecommunications
systems. Examples of tasks that require security provisions include:

\(1\) Computer control of spacecraft, satellites, or aircraft or their
payloads;

\(2\) Acquisition, transmission or analysis of data owned by NASA with
significant replacement cost should the contractor's copy be corrupted;
and

\(3\) Access to NASA networks or computers at a level beyond that
granted the general public, e.g. bypassing a firewall.

\(b\) The Contractor shall provide, implement, and maintain an IT
Security Plan. This plan shall describe the processes and procedures
that will be followed to ensure appropriate security of IT resources
that are developed, processed, or used under this contract. The plan
shall describe those parts of the contract to which this clause applies.
The Contractor's IT Security Plan shall be compliant with Federal laws
that include, but are not limited to, the Computer Security Act of 1987
(40 U.S.C. 1441 et seq.) and the Government Information Security Reform
Act of 2000. The plan shall meet IT security requirements in accordance
with Federal and NASA policies and procedures that include, but are not
limited to:

\(1\) OMB Circular A-130, Management of Federal Information Resources,
Appendix III, Security of Federal Automated Information Resources;

\(2\) NASA Procedures and Guidelines (NPG) 2810.1, Security of
Information Technology; and

\(3\) Chapter 3 of NPG 1620.1, NASA Security Procedures and Guidelines.

\(c\) Within \_\_\_\_days after contract award, the contractor shall
submit for NASA approval an IT Security Plan. This plan must be
consistent with and further detail the approach contained in the
offeror\'s proposal or sealed bid that resulted in the award of this
contract and in compliance with the requirements stated in this clause.
The plan, as approved by the Contracting Officer, shall be incorporated
into the contract as a compliance document.

(d)(1) Contractor personnel requiring privileged access or limited
privileged access to systems operated by the Contractor for NASA or
interconnected to a NASA network shall be screened at an appropriate
level in accordance with NPG 2810.1, Section 4.5; NPG 1620.1, Chapter 3;
and paragraph (d)(2) of this clause. Those Contractor personnel with
non-privileged access do not require personnel screening. NASA shall
provide screening using standard personnel screening National Agency
Check (NAC) forms listed in paragraph (d)(3) of this clause, unless
contractor screening in accordance with paragraph (d)(4) is approved.
The Contractor shall submit the required forms to the NASA Center Chief
of Security (CCS) within fourteen (14) days after contract award or
assignment of an individual to a position requiring screening. The forms
may be obtained from the CCS. At the option of the government, interim
access may be granted pending completion of the NAC.

\(2\) Guidance for selecting the appropriate level of screening is based
on the risk of adverse impact to NASA missions. NASA defines three
levels of risk for which screening is required (IT-1 has the highest
level of risk):

\(i\) **IT-1** \-- Individuals having privileged access or limited
privileged access to systems whose misuse can cause very serious adverse
impact to NASA missions. These systems include, for example, those that
can transmit commands directly modifying the behavior of spacecraft,
satellites or aircraft.

\(ii\) **IT-2** \-- Individuals having privileged access or limited
privileged access to systems whose misuse can cause serious adverse
impact to NASA missions. These systems include, for example, those that
can transmit commands directly modifying the behavior of payloads on
spacecraft, satellites or aircraft; and those that contain the primary
copy of \"level 1\" data whose cost to replace exceeds one million
dollars.

\(iii\) **IT-3** \-- Individuals having privileged access or limited
privileged access to systems whose misuse can cause significant adverse
impact to NASA missions. These systems include, for example, those that
interconnect with a NASA network in a way that exceeds access by the
general public, such as bypassing firewalls; and systems operated by the
contractor for NASA whose function or data has substantial cost to
replace, even if these systems are not interconnected with a NASA
network.

\(3\) Screening for individuals shall employ forms appropriate for the
level of risk as follows:

\(i\) IT-1: Fingerprint Card (FC) 258 and Standard Form (SF) 85P,
Questionnaire for Public Trust Positions;

\(ii\) IT-2: FC 258 and SF 85, Questionnaire for Non-Sensitive
Positions; and

\(iii\) IT-3: NASA Form 531, Name Check, and FC 258.

\(4\) The Contracting Officer may allow the Contractor to conduct its
own screening of individuals requiring privileged access or limited
privileged access provided the Contractor can demonstrate that the
procedures used by the Contractor are equivalent to NASA\'s personnel
screening procedures. As used here, equivalent includes a check for
criminal history, as would be conducted by NASA, and completion of a
questionnaire covering the same information as would be required by
NASA.

\(5\) Screening of contractor personnel may be waived by the Contracting
Officer for those individuals who have proof of \--

> \(i\) Current or recent national security clearances (within last
> three years);

\(ii\) Screening conducted by NASA within last three years; or

\(iii\) Screening conducted by the Contractor, within last three years,
that is equivalent to the NASA personnel screening procedures as
approved by the Contracting Officer under paragraph (d)(4) of this
clause.

\(e\) The Contractor shall ensure that its employees, in performance of
the contract, receive annual IT security training in NASA IT Security
policies, procedures, computer ethics, and best practices in accordance
with NPG 2810.1, Section 4.3 requirements. The contractor may use
web-based training available from NASA to meet this requirement.

\(f\) The Contractor shall afford NASA, including the Office of
Inspector General, access to the Contractor's and subcontractors'
facilities, installations, operations, documentation, databases and
personnel used in performance of the contract. Access shall be provided
to the extent required to carry out a program of IT inspection,
investigation and audit to safeguard against threats and hazards to the
integrity, availability and confidentiality of NASA data or to the
function of computer systems operated on behalf of NASA, and to preserve
evidence of computer crime.

\(g\) The Contractor shall incorporate the substance of this clause in
all subcontracts that meet the conditions in paragraph (a) of this
clause.

I.15 [EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES AND EVACUATION]{.underline} (NASA FAR
1852.242-78) (APRIL 2001)

The Contractor shall, at its own expense, be responsible for making all
arrangements for emergency medical services and evacuation, if required,
for its employees while performing work under this contract outside the
United States or in remote locations in the United States. If necessary
to deal with certain emergencies, the Contractor may request the
Government to provide medical or evacuation services. If the Government
provides such services, the Contractor shall reimburse the Government
for costs incurred.
