    Needs and Uses: The information will be used by the Pentagon Pass 
Office to conduct a National Crime Information Center check of all 
members of the public 18 years and older who request access to the 
Pentagon or a Pentagon facility. The method for collecting the required 
information varies depending on the status of the individual making the 
request and the length of time that they require access.

A. Privilege Management Program (PMP), DD Form 2249, Pentagon Access 
Enrollment Form

    a. Personnel who require swipe access to the Pentagon or any of its 
leased facilities must enroll in the PMP. To enroll, personnel must 
electronically submit the DD Form 2249, Pentagon Access Enrollment Form 
to gain access via a Personal Identity Verification (PIV) Card or 
Common Access Card (CAC). The electronic submission is mandatory. The 
DD Form 2249 was a paper-based form that was printed and physically 
carried to the pass office for enrollment of the person's CAC into PMP. 
As of November 1, 2024, PFPA requires the DD Form 2249 be submitted 
electronically by Authorizing Officials, using the Access Management 
Portal, located at https://access.pfpa.mil/. The same information 
contained on the hardcopy is now electronically submitted, stored, and 
processed using AMP and is commonly referred to as an ``e2249'' 
authorization.
    b. For personnel who do not meet the criteria for a PIV card or a 
CAC but require swipe access into the Pentagon or any of its leased 
facilities, DD Form 2249 can also be used to request access.

B. Visitor Management System (VMS) Registration Portal

    a. The VMS is a component of the aforementioned PMP. Personnel who 
do not have swipe access into the Pentagon or its leased facilities are 
deemed visitors and must be registered by a sponsor. Sponsors initiate 
visits by submitting the visitor's name and email address at https://visitorsponsor.pfpa.mil/. The visitor will then receive a link via the 
email provided, allowing the visitor to navigate to the VMS 
Registration Portal and complete the application for adjudication. Once 
it is complete and PFPA reviews the submission, the visitor and sponsor 
will receive a system-generated email on the adjudication decision. The 
system can also be used to request issuance of a Pentagon Facility 
Alternate Credential.

C. Alternative Methods for Submission

    a. Visitors may provide the required information in the body of a 
properly protected email when technical limitations prevent them from 
accessing the Visitor Management System's Web Portal. Pentagon Pass 
Office personnel will enter this information in the Visitor Management 
Web Portal.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    DoD Clearance Officer: Mr. Reginald Lucas.
