SUBJECT: DIRECTIVES EQUIVALENCY APPROVAL MEMORANDUM
PURPOSE: To document BPA’s equivalency to Contractor Requirements Documents (CRD),
Appendix A and Attachment 1 of Department of Energy Order 206.2, Identity, Credential, and
Access Management (ICAM).
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this order is to establish requirements and responsibilities for
DOE’s identity, credential, and access management program that:
a. Provides a trusted framework and common identity infrastructure for access to
DOE facilities and systems;
b. Reduces the identity, credential, and access management burden for individual
DOE and contractor organizations by fostering common interoperable approaches;
c. Aligns identity, credential, and access management activities that cross organizational
boundaries;
d. Enables trust in online transactions through common identity, credential, and
access management policies and approaches; and
e. Establishes roles to enhance interoperability when collaborating with external
identity management activities.
JUSTIFICATION: BPA’s relationship with contractors is markedly different than the relationship
DOE has with its Management and Operating contractors as defined in the Federal Acquisition
Requirements Subpart 17.6-Management and Operating Contracts. BPA is granted independent
contracting authority pursuant to the Bonneville Project Act of 1937 (U.S.C. 832a(F)) and is
exempt from the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) pursuant to the Federal Property and
Administrative Services Act of 1939. As such BPA does not utilize Contract Requirements
Documents (CRD) referenced in this Order. All BPA contractor requirements and expectations
are incorporated into the Bonneville Purchasing Instruction (BPI) requiring contractors to
comply with all BPA policies.
Additionally, BPA works closely with the DOE OCIO in building BPA’s Identity, Credential, and
Access Management program, which complies with all elements and requirements of this
order; to include HSPD-12 and PIV (Personal Identity Verification) credentials.
RECOMMENDATION: Recommend that you approve this equivalency memorandum.
