Addendum to FAR Clause 52.212-2

States, “A completed/updated copy of the Vendor’s SAM Registration which includes the Vendor’s representations and certifications IAW FAR 52.212-3 of this solicitation”.

To meet compliance is it acceptable to make a statement IAW FAR 52.212-3 that our SAM Reps and Certs are up to date in SAM rather than including the entire SAM Reps & Certs record?

to FAR Clause 52.212-2

Would the Government clarify the definition of, “adequately demonstrated” reference the TS FCL, because the TS FCL is a CUI document requiring CUI protections?

Will the Government accept the offeror’s Cage Code and a statement confirming the offeror’s FCL rather than the TS FCL CUI document?
