Abstract:
This information collection is necessary to implement section 1290 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2017. Unless the contract is for the procurement of goods or services along a major route of supply to a zone of active combat or major contingency, the prescription at FAR 9.109-6 requires contracting officers to insert the provision at 52.209-XX in solicitations exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold, other than those for the acquisition of commercial items.
Emergency Justfication:
The implementation of the interim rule and information collection will protect against doing business with entities that engage in any activity that contributed to or is a significant factor in a country's failure to comply with arms control treaties or agreements with the United States. Arms control, nonproliferation, and disarmament agreements can limit or reduce threats to the security of the United States and our allies, contributing to transparency and stability on a global and regional scale. Failure of participating countries to comply with such agreements can present serious national security challenges. Therefore, robust compliance enforcement is a critical aspect of U.S. national security planning. With some exceptions, the head of any executive agency is prohibited from entering into, renewing, or extending a contract for the procurement of products or services from any entity involved in activities that violate arms control treaties or agreements with the United States. Passage of the omnibus appropriations bill and the availability of additional funding for FY 18 has increased agency purchasing activity, and the information to be collected is necessary to ensure that this purchasing is done responsibly and consistently with national security and agencies’ missions.
