3 Applicable Laws

3.1 Buy American/Berry Amendment

All goods to be delivered under this contract are subject to the restrictions of the Buy American Act and the Nonmanufacture Rule, certain goods to be delivered under this contract are subject to the Berry Amendment. This clause is meant to highlight certain aspects of the Buy Amendment Act, the Nonmanufacture Rule, and the Berry Amendment, but the contractor is required to review applicable statutes, FAR 52.219-33, DFARS 252.225-7000, DFARS 252.225-7001, DFARS 252.225-7012, FAR Part 25, and DFARS Part 225 prior to submitting its proposal and as necessary during contract performance, and to build time, expense, and other resources necessary for compliance into its price and into its commitment to deliver conforming goods in a timely manner as required by this contract. The contractor is solely responsible for ensuring that all delivered goods strictly comply with the statutes and the FAR and DFARS provisions on domestic sourcing cited above, regardless of whether the Government inspects for compliance with domestic sourcing restrictions; regardless of whether the Government reminds the contractor of the requirement to comply or demands such compliance; and regardless of the source of any goods accepted under this contract or any other Government contract. Compliance with provisions required by the Buy American Act, the Nonmanufacture Rule, and the Berry Amendment are required by statute and cannot be waived by conduct or course of dealings. No exceptions apply until the Contracting Officer notifies the contractor in writing of the exception approval and the exception is incorporated into the contract by a modification. If the contractor requests or recommends an exception to the Buy American Act or the Berry Amendment or both, the contractor must continue to comply while its request for an exception is pending.

The contractor will maintain a list of names and addresses of all manufacturers, suppliers, and subcontractors during the life of this contract, including its own facilities, and shall be prepared to provide

14 SOURCE SELECTION SENSITIVE INFORMATION; DISCLOSE ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH FAR 4.104-4 at no additional costs to the Government such list and any other information necessary to ensure compliance upon request of the Contracting Officer. Compliance is still the responsibility of the contractor, regardless of whether the Contracting Officer makes such requests or does not make such requests.

In addition, as stated above, the contract contains FAR 52.219-33(c ) , Nonmanufacturer Rule (SEP 2021) (15 U.S.C. 657s), That clause requires the contractor to provide only end items that a small business has manufactured, processed, or produced in the United States or its outlying areas.

The Buy American Act places restrictions on the purchase of supplies that are not domestic end products.

Per DFARS 252.225-7000, the contractor by its offer certifies that all items to be delivered are domestic, unless the contractor lists nondomestic sources on the Buy American Act certificate; and per FAR 25.501(b), the Contracting Officer may rely on those certifications, both prior to award and during the term of this contract.

The restrictions of the Berry Amendment and the FAR and DFARS provisions cited above apply to goods required to be delivered under this requirement. Per DFARS 225.7000(b), nothing in Part 225.70 affects the applicability of the Buy American Act to goods delivered under the contract, so the contractor may need to ensure compliance with both statutes for some goods.

The following is meant to help the contractor comply with the Buy American Act, the Nonmanufacturer Rule, and Berry Amendment provisions of the contract:

FAR 52.219-33(c ), Nonmanufacturer Rule, and DFARS 252.225-7001 Buy American and Balance of Payments Program apply to all items. The following items must also comply with the Berry Amendment and DFARS 252.225-7012, PREFERENCE FOR CERTAIN DOMESTIC COMMODITIES (APR 2022):
