About this file
This file is a federal contract clause (FAR 52.222-90) addressing discrimination prohibitions for federal contractors. The clause establishes requirements that federal contractors and subcontractors must comply with anti-discrimination laws and regulations, specifically prohibiting discrimination based on protected characteristics in employment and service delivery. Contractors are required to implement policies, procedures, and monitoring mechanisms to ensure compliance with federal civil rights laws, including Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and other applicable statutes. The clause mandates that contractors maintain records of compliance efforts and make them available for federal inspection and audit.
This clause has been incorporated into Amendment 1 of Solicitation 36C24426Q0487 for patient bathing unit replacement services at the Coatesville VA Medical Center. By including this clause in the amendment, the Department of Veterans Affairs is requiring all vendors responding to this Request for Quotes to acknowledge their obligation to comply with federal anti-discrimination requirements as a condition of contract award. Contractors must flow down these requirements to any subcontractors involved in the performance of the contract.
