Title: ●Contracting With the Canadian Commercial Corporation (DFARS Case 2011-D049) 
Abstract: This rule proposes to amend the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) to clarify the requirements for the Canadian Commercial Corporation to submit data other than certified cost or pricing data. This proposed rule solicits public comments on suggested DoD clarifications to DFARS subpart 215.4 discussed during bilateral integrated product team meets of representatives from the U.S. Government and Canada. The purpose of this rule is to clarify the requirement to submit data other than certified cost or pricing data. DoD has waived the requirement for the Canadian Commercial Corporation and its subcontractors to submit certified cost or pricing data, but not the requirement to submit data other than certified cost or pricing data. In order to facilitate requests for data other than certified cost or pricing data when contracting with the Canadian Commercial Corporation, this rule proposes a new provision for use in appropriate solicitations with the Canadian Commercial Corporation, and a comparable clause to be included in contracts to cover modifications that may require submission of data other than certified cost or pricing data. The rule prescribes use of this provision and clause in solicitations and contracts for sole source acquisitions from the Canadian Commercial Corporation that are expected to result in cost-reimbursement contracts expected to exceed the simplified acquisition threshold or fixed-price contracts expected to exceed $500 million. No domestic entities will be impacted by this rule because it only impacts Canadian business concerns.
