Form / Attachment / Pricing Sheet

This document outlines the Operations Security (OPSEC) contract requirements for contractors performing work at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard (PNSY). It details what OPSEC is, the requirements for an OPSEC Plan, and the contractor's responsibilities regarding sensitive information.

• Definition of OPSEC: A process to protect sensitive information (Critical Information and Indicators - CII) from adversaries.
• OPSEC Plan Requirement: Contractors must determine if an OPSEC Plan is required based on the type of work, environment, and circumstances. The form includes a checkbox to indicate if an OPSEC Plan is required, not required, or will be determined by the installation.
• Contractor Responsibility: Contractors must avoid inadvertent disclosure of unclassified or classified information. This includes protecting CII from unauthorized disclosure and preventing its distribution to third parties, foreign governments, or entities under Foreign Ownership, Control or Influence (FOCI).
• Prohibited Disclosures: U.S. Government CII cannot be publicized on corporate newsletters, trade magazines, displays, internet pages, or public websites. Transmission to personal email accounts and posting on social media is prohibited.
• Consequences of Disclosure: Disclosure or compromise of CII may lead to removal of the individual, contract termination, criminal prosecution, and civil penalties.
• Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI): Contractors must protect CUI and report any attempts by unauthorized parties to solicit, obtain, photograph, or record incidents of loss or compromise.
• Portable Electronic Device (PED) Policy: Outlines restrictions on the use of PEDs that can record, copy, store, export, or transmit data, including mobile phones, laptops, and digital cameras. Use of such devices requires coordination with the sponsor and adherence to shipyard guidance.
• OPSEC Critical Information and Indicator List (CIIL) & Countermeasures: Lists examples of CII (e.g., PII, operation schedules, equipment capabilities, critical infrastructure) and corresponding countermeasures (e.g., not posting sensitive information online, shredding documents, not posting on social media, removing badges).

This document is crucial for bidders to understand their obligations regarding the protection of sensitive information and the use of electronic devices. It highlights potential risks and penalties associated with OPSEC violations and outlines specific requirements that may impact how work is performed and how information is handled during contract performance. Bidders should review the OPSEC Plan requirement and the CIIL to assess their ability to comply with these security protocols.

Form / Attachment / Pricing Sheet

This document is a "Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition" (JOFOC) for an acquisition under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold. It explains the rationale for soliciting from a single source.

• Item Description: 50 each of a "DISCONNECT SWITCH: 1500VDC 500A DC DISCONNECT SWITCH, LITTLE FUSE COMPANY P/N LS7R05002PS00L."
• Justification Basis: The determination for using other than full and open competition is based on "BRAND NAME" (Section III.B). The item is required by a non-deviational drawing (CED 0021). While Little Fuse Company has distributors, using a different part would require a lengthy and administratively burdensome process with the Contracted Design Agency (CDA) to approve interchangeability, potentially taking 6 months to a year. This process would involve significant time, administrative effort, and financial impact without significant cost savings through competition.
• Approvals: Includes sections for Technical/Requirements Certification and Contracting Officer Approval.

This document indicates that the upcoming solicitation for the specified disconnect switch will likely be sole-sourced due to brand name requirements and the significant hurdles associated with approving an alternative part. Bidders should note that this is not a competitive solicitation for this specific item.
