In their bids, invited bidders shall present their procedure of engaging subcontractors as follows: describe how performance of subcontractors is monitored and recorded; name the subcontractors who will provide special works and/or services (If special works and/or services are entirely provided in-house, state "in-house".); for each subcontractor, list the projects on which the applicable subcontractor has worked in the last three years; for each project, provide project name, client, value, year, and client confirmation.

The contractor is responsible for ensuring that the Defense Industrial Security Clearance Office (DISCO) makes available to the contracting authority the required NATO security clearance certifications. BECOMING ELIGIBLE TO BID NATO ICB requires that the U.S. Government nominate U.S. prime contractors to the bidders list. Before the U.S. Government can nominate a U.S. prime contractor to the bidders list for this procurement, the firm must be approved for participation in NATO ICB. Firms are approved for NATO ICB on a facility-by-facility basis. The NATO ICB application is a one-time application. The application requires supporting documentation in the form of 1) a company resume indicating contracts completed as a prime contractor and 2) an annual report or set of financial documents indicating compilation, review, or audit by an independent CPA. U.S. firms can download a copy of the U.S. NATO ICB application from the following website: http://www.bis.doc.gov/index.php/other-areas/strategic-industries-and-economic-security-sies/nato-related-business-opportunities The application and supporting documentation may be submitted as e-mail attachments. If, when submitting the application, your firm is interested in a specific NATO ICB project, please include the following in the text of your email: - the title and/or solicitation number of the project - the name/phone/FAX/email of the point of contact for the bid documents After approval of your one-time NATO ICB application, the U.S. Department of Commerce will then know to follow up by issuing a Declaration of Eligibility (DOE) for that project.
