About this file

This document details deviations to Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clauses 52.212-3 and 52.212-5 for commercial products and commercial services. The key changes are related to representations and certifications, specifically involving Equal Opportunity compliance and affirmative action programs. The document notes that system updates in the System for Award Management (SAM) may lag behind policy updates, and certain representations like greenhouse gas emissions and affirmative action compliance may continue to be required in SAM even if not included in current agency solicitations. Notably, contracting officers are instructed not to consider or use certain representations when making award decisions, and entities are not required to update their registration to remove these representations.

The document modifies sections related to previous contract compliance, affirmative action programs, and contract terms implementing statutes or executive orders. Specific changes include reserving certain sections related to Equal Opportunity (E.O. 11246) and Prohibition of Segregated Facilities, with deviation dates of February 2025 for both the Offeror Representations and Certifications and the Contract Terms and Conditions documents. The modifications appear to streamline and clarify reporting requirements for commercial product and service contractors while maintaining compliance with existing labor and equal opportunity regulations.
