SPēD SAPPC: INDUSEC Questions and
Answers Already Passed
Scenario: When designing a new multi-story government Special Access Program Facility
(SAPF), the architect provided identical drawings for two three-story buildings to the security
officer. One drawing is for a building on the installation to be occupied only by contracting
Company X. The other is for the command headquarters building on the installation. The design
reveals floor-to-ceiling windows on the second floor for the main conference rooms and front
office staff. The drawings indicate a parking lot adjacent to the building separated by a four-footwide, handicap-accessible sidewalk. The architect placed emergency exits and stairwells at each
end of the building with door hardware on the exterior to facilitate access/egress. The floor plans
show interior office and conference room doors with GSA-approved locks and connectivity to
the building access control badge system. The front door drawings indicate a large safety glass
key lock entry door with the unit logo and designation etched in the glass. The single entry door
provides access into the building lobby where visit control staff will greet people and in-process
visitors. The plans identify lock boxes to be placed inside the lobby for visitors and employees to
store their electronic digital devices and other prohibited items. The architect designed an open
lobby leading to interior hallways, an elevator and access to the stairways. He placed the access
control system central processing unit (CPU) behind the visit control desk. Typically, the CPU is
located in the dispatch center. The contracting company will be considered a tenant aboard the
installation.
