STATEMENT OF WORK For Credentialing and Validation Support for DC Homeland Security & Emergency Management Agency (DC HSEMA) IN SUPPORT OF THE GOVERNMENT OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA November 15, 2012
1. INTRODUCTION The Washington DC Government has endorsed the use of General Services Administration (GSA) approved Personal Identity Verification Interoperable (PIV-I) identity credentials for use with specified DC Government personnel. The DC Governments PIV-I credential will be issued based on sound and certified criteria and should be viable for a three year time frame. Purpose The purpose of the Washington District of Columbia Homeland Security and Emergency Management Agency (DC HSEMA) 2012 Presidential Inauguration electronic validation and accountability proof-of-concept is to demonstrate the capability to electronically validate and account for on-scene Emergency Operations Center (EOC) Emergency Liaison Officers (ELO). This capability will provide geospatial data for personnel accountability, situational awareness, and post-event reconstruction to support reimbursement purposes. Background In August 2011, Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) released the National Incident Management System (NIMS) Guideline for the Credentialing of Personnel, which encourages the use of Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) 201 credentials, business processes and technology by non-federal entities to achieve interoperability with the Federal Government s Homeland Security Presidential Directive-12 (HSPD-12) credentials. HSPD-12 is a strategic initiative intended to enhance security, increase Government efficiency, reduce identity fraud, and protect personal privacy. Specific benefits of a standardized credential as required by HSPD-12 include secure access to federal facilities and disaster response sites, multi-factor authentication, digital signature and encryption capabilities. The DC Government is seeking support for its DC Homeland Security & Emergency Management Agency (DC HSEMA) Presidential Inauguration Credentialing & Validation program. DC Government anticipates a solution to enable issuance and management of DC HSEMAs PIV-I cards to government personnel. 2.

3. SCOPE The offeror s PIV-I solution shall be based on uniform standards and policies for issuing identity credentials as defined in FIPS PUB 201-1, the PIV-I standard, and associated NIST publications. This new identity credential will be used by DC Government employees and its support agencies. DC Government will only accept offers from organizations who have been certified by GSA as an end-to-end solution provider and whose PIV-I solution has been certified by GSA on or prior the date of this RFQ release. In addition to issuance of a DC Government PIV-I credential, DC HSEMA is also seeking a solution that will provide for the accountability of government personnel during major events across the region inclusive of but not limited to the Presidential Inauguration and beyond. 3.1 Purpose/Objectives To provide DC government with PIV-I cards, PIV-I credentials, an accountability application, and training on the PIV-I credentials and the accountability application. 3.2 Contractor Performance Responsibilities and Limitations Task 1: Enrollment & Issuance of PIV-I Credentials The initial phase will be 200 with expansion to cover the entire enterprise.
