About this file
This is a self-certification representation form for the Indian Health Service Buy Indian Act Indian Economic Enterprise eligibility requirement.
The form is used for Sources Sought Notices, Requests for Information (RFI), and solicitations to certify that an offeror meets the definition of an "Indian Economic Enterprise" as defined in HHSAR 326.601 under the authority of 25 U.S.C. 47. Offerors must self-certify their eligibility at three critical junctures: when submitting an offer, at the time of contract award, and throughout the full performance period of the contract. Any loss of eligibility status during contract performance requires immediate written notification to the Contracting Officer. Contracting Officers may require supporting documentation of eligibility before awarding set-aside or sole source contracts, and awards are subject to protest if the successful offeror's eligibility is questioned. Successful offerors must maintain registration with the System of Award Management (SAM). The form requires the offeror to represent whether it does or does not meet the Indian Economic Enterprise definition with Indian Ownership, and must be signed by an authorized representative and accompanied by the name of the federally recognized tribal entity, business name, name of the 51% owner of the firm, and the UEI number. Submitting false or misleading information is subject to penalties under 18 U.S.C. 1001, and false claims submitted during contract performance are subject to penalties under 31 U.S.C. 3729-3731 and 18 U.S.C. 287.
