Abstract: This clearance covers the information that offerors and contractors must submit to comply with the following FAR requirements: a. FAR 52.204-3, and 52.212-3(l) - Taxpayer Identification Number Information. When there is not a requirement to be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM), offerors are required to submit their Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) information by the provision at FAR 52.204-3, Taxpayer Identification, for other than commercial acquisitions, and by paragraph (l) of the provision at FAR 52.212-3, Offeror Representations and Certifications - Commercial Products and Commercial Services, for commercial acquisitions. b. FAR 52.204-6, 52.212-1(j), and 52.204-12 - Unique Entity Identifier. When there is not a requirement to be registered in SAM, offerors are required to submit their unique entity identifier by the provision at FAR 52.204-6, Unique Entity Identifier, for other than commercial acquisitions, and by paragraph (j) of the provision at FAR 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors - Commercial Products and Commercial Services, for commercial acquisitions. The clause at FAR 52.204-12, Unique Entity Identifier Maintenance, requires contractors to maintain their unique entity identifier with the organization designated in SAM to issue such identifiers, for the life of the contract. c. FAR 52.204-7, 52.204-13, and 52.212-3(b) - SAM Registration and Maintenance. The provision at FAR 52.204-7, System for Award Management, requires offerors to be registered in SAM when submitting an offer or quotation and at time of award, except in certain limited cases, and to continue to be registered through final payment of any award that results from such offer. The clause at FAR 52.204-13, System for Award Management Maintenance, requires contractors to make sure their SAM data is kept current, accurate, and complete throughout contract performance and final payment; this maintenance is, at a minimum, to be done through an annual review and update of the contractor’s SAM registration. d. FAR 52.204-14, and 52.204-15 - Service Contract Reporting Requirements. The clauses at FAR 52.204-14, Service Contract Reporting Requirements, and FAR 52.204-15, Service Contract Reporting Requirements for Indefinite-Delivery Contracts, require contractors to report information in SAM annually: e. FAR 52.204-16 and 52.204-18, Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) Code Reporting and Maintenance. The provision at FAR 52.204-16, Commercial and Government Entity Code Reporting, require offerors to provide their CAGE code, including name and location address, with their offer. The CAGE code must be for that name and location address. The CAGE code is required prior to award. The clause at FAR 52.204-18, Commercial and Government Entity Code Maintenance, requires contractors to maintain their CAGE code throughout the life of the contract for each location of contract, including subcontract, performance. f. FAR 52.204-17, Ownership or Control of Offeror. This provision requires offerors to represent whether they are owned or controlled by another entity, and if so, to provide the CAGE code and name of such entity. g. FAR 52.204-20, Predecessor of Offeror. This provision requires offerors to identify if the offeror is, within the last three years, a successor to another entity that received a Federal Government award and, if so, to provide the CAGE code and legal name of the predecessor. h. FAR 52.204-23, Prohibition on Contracting for Hardware, Software, and Services Developed or Provided by Kaspersky Lab Covered Entities. This clause requires contractors to report, in writing, to the contracting officer or, in the case of DoD, any instance when the contractor identifies a covered article provided to the Government during contract performance, or if contractors are notified of such an event by subcontractors at any tier or any other source.
