SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Purpose

    The U.S. Government conducts criminal checks to establish that 
applicants or incumbents working for the Government under contract may 
have unescorted access to federally controlled facilities. GSA uses the 
Contractor Information Worksheet; GSA Form 850, and digitally captured 
fingerprints to conduct an FBI National Criminal Information Check 
(NCIC) for each contractor's physical access determination to GSA-
controlled facilities and/or logical access to GSA-controlled 
information systems. Manual fingerprint card SF-87 is used for 
exception cases such as contractor's significant geographical distance 
from fingerprint enrollment sites.
    The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Guidance M-05-24 for 
Homeland Security Presidential Directive (HSPD) 12, authorizes Federal 
departments and agencies to ensure that contractors have limited/
controlled access to facilities and information systems. GSA Directive 
CIO P 2181.1 Homeland Security Presidential Directive-12, Personal 
Identity Verification and Credentialing (available at <a href="http://www.gsa.gov/hspd12">http://www.gsa.gov/hspd12</a>), states that GSA contractors must undergo a minimum 
of an FBI National Criminal Information Check (NCIC) to receive 
unescorted physical access to GSA-controlled facilities and/or logical 
access to GSA-controlled information systems.
    Contractors' Social Security Number is needed to keep records 
accurate, because other people may have the same name and birth date. 
Executive Order 9397, Numbering System for Federal Accounts Relating to 
Individual Persons, also allows Federal agencies to use this number to 
help identify individuals in agency records.
