This Order outlines procedures for U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) personnel to verify an individual has the appropriate clearance level prior to sharing classified information and provides the procedures to follow when requesting to have clearance information passed to another agency or company.
GSA employees and contractor employees must ensure an individual has the proper clearance, access level and a need-to-know prior to sharing classified information. Need-to-know is the determination made by an authorized holder of classified information that access to the information is required by another appropriately cleared individual in order to perform official duties. Having a security clearance does not give automatic approval for access to classified information. The procedures in this Order outline the processes that will confirm if an individual has the appropriate clearance level for the purpose of sharing classified information.
When an external party wants to share classified information with a GSA employee or contractor employee, they also need to verify that the GSA employee/contractor employee has a valid clearance, which may include Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI) access(es). This is accomplished by the GSA Personnel Security Branch passing clearance information (i.e., verifying to an external party that the GSA employee/contractor employee has the appropriate clearance and/or SCI access). The procedures in this Order outline the processes that are required to request GSA pass clearance or SCI access.
This Order applies to all GSA employees and contractor employees in the performance of their duties, except for the employees in the following independent offices within GSA:
This Order supersedes OMA 1000.2, GSA Clearance Verification-Passing Procedures.
