Download as PDF lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 29314 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 78 / Monday, April 22, 2024 / Notices Government Activities Relating to Foreign Ownership, Control or Influence (FOCI), dated April 17, 2014. The SF 328 incorporates its usage for the NISP portion of the Classified Critical Infrastructure Protection Program as stipulated under E.O. 12829, as amended by Executive Order 13691. Revisions to the SF 328 will also incorporate its usage under the DoD’s Innovation initiative through the DoD Enhanced Security Program (DESP), pursuant to section 951 of Public Law 114–328 (10 U.S.C. 1564 note). The DESP is a DoD only initiative and is not part of the NISP. Companies participating under the DESP do not require a DoD contract but are required to enter into a Memorandum of Agreement. Completion of the SF 328 and submission of supporting documentation (e.g., company or entity charter documents, board meeting minutes, stock or securities information, descriptions of organizational structures, contracts, sales, leases and/or loan agreements and revenue documents, annual reports and income statements, etc.) is part of the eligibility determination for access to classified information and/or issuance of an Entity Eligibility Determination (also known as a Facility Security Clearance). The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2020, Public Law 116–92, section 847, ‘‘Mitigating Risks Related to Foreign Ownership, Control, or Influence of Department of Defense Contractors or Subcontractors’’ (sec. 847), requires the Secretary for Defense to improve the process and procedures for the assessment and mitigation of risks related to FOCI of contractors and subcontractors doing business with the DoD, in conjunction with the Departments efforts to develop and implement an improved analytical framework for mitigating risk relating to ownership structure, as required by 10 U.S.C. 2509 and section 847 of Public Law 116–92. To fulfill the requirements of sec. 847, contractors and subcontractors must disclose to DCSA their beneficial ownership and whether they are under FOCI, and to update those disclosures when changes occur to information previously provided consistent with the requirements of the NISPOM. In addition, sec. 847 provides for the creation of other measures as necessary to be consistent with other relevant authorities, including the NISP. The Small Business Innovation Research and Small Business Technology Transfer (SBIR/STTR) Extension Act of 2022, Public Law 117– 183, section 4, ‘‘Foreign Risk Management’’ (DoD SBIR/STTR programs), requires the head of each VerDate Sep<11>2014 06:41 Apr 20, 2024 Jkt 262001 Federal agency required to establish a SBIR or STTR program to implement a due diligence program to assess security risks presented by small business concerns seeking Federal awards. These security risks includes, among other things, foreign interested-related risks. The DoD intends to utilize the SF 328 as the basis for information collection for DoD SBIR/STTR program participants to disclose their foreign interests, and to report any future changes, as appropriate. For DoD SBIR/ STTR, the DoD will use this form to collect information to conduct a riskbased due diligence review and assess security risks presented by small business concerns seeking a federally funded award through the DoD SBIR/ STTR programs. The submission will be required to be submitted as part of the SBIR/STTR solicitation package, and details concerning its submission will be included in the solicitation published to perspective submitters. The use of the SF 328 will also be required by the forthcoming Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) program, which is currently in the Rulemaking process under 32 CFR part 170. The CMMC program will require CMMC Level 2 Certification Assessments be conducted by a CMMC Third Party Assessment Organization (C3PAO), accredited by the DoD approved CMMC Accreditation Body (AB). To be accredited, the CMMC AB and all C3PAOs must receive a favorable adjudication and not be subject to a level of risk from Foreign Ownership, Control, or Influence (FOCI) as determined by the CMMC Program Management Office (PMO). DCSA will conduct the FOCI assessments for the CMMC AB and C3PAOs after they are nominated by the CMMC PMO. The multiple authorized uses of this form will create uniformity among numerous authorities responsible for the vetting or review of companies or entities for foreign interest-related risks. In addition, it will establish more consistency among industry concerning their basic information submission requirements regarding foreign interest information. The submission of the SF–328, and supporting documentation, may be done electronically through a government approved system of record.
