Foreign National Access Coordination & Security Compliance

Fermilab, as a U.S. Department of Energy contractor, is seeking a subcontractor to manage the coordination and submission of advance access requests for foreign nationals seeking entry to its Batavia, Illinois facility, with heightened scrutiny for individuals from sensitive countries. This role requires strict adherence to Department of Energy security regulations, ensuring all access requests are documented, reviewed, and submitted in a timely and compliant manner to safeguard national security interests and facility integrity. The position demands detailed knowledge of federal security protocols, precise recordkeeping, and seamless communication with both internal Fermilab personnel and external stakeholders, including foreign nationals and government agencies. The opportunity is structured as a subcontract and is open for responses until August 24, 2026, with the work location firmly established at Fermilab’s site in Batavia, zip code 60510. The North American Industry Classification System code 541611 indicates this involves scientific research and development services, specifically aligned with security and administrative coordination for scientific facilities. While no set-aside provisions apply, the subcontractor must possess the capability to navigate complex federal compliance frameworks, demonstrate experience with foreign visitor management in federally funded research environments, and maintain the highest standards of confidentiality and procedural accuracy throughout the access request lifecycle.
