To remain registered in the CCR database after the initial registration, the Contractor is required to review and update on an annual basis from the date of initial registration or subsequent updates its information in the CCR database to ensure it is current, accurate and complete. Updating information in the CCR does not alter the terms and conditions of this contract and is not a substitute for a properly executed contractual document.

(2)(i) If a Contractor has legally changed its business name, “doing business as” name, or division name (whichever is shown on the contract), or has transferred the assets used in performing the contract, but has not completed the necessary requirements regarding novation and change-of-name agreements in FAR Subpart 42.12, the Contractor shall provide the responsible Contracting Officer a minimum of one business day’s written notification of its intention to (A) change the name in the CCR database; (B) comply with the requirements of Subpart 42.12; and (C) agree in writing to the timeline and procedures specified by the responsible Contracting Officer.

(3) The Contractor shall not change the name or address for EFT payments or manual payments, as appropriate, in the CCR record to reflect an assignee for the purpose of assignment of claims (see Subpart 32.8, Assignment of Claims). Assignees shall be separately registered in the CCR database. Information provided to the Contractor’s CCR record that indicates payments, including those made by EFT, to an ultimate recipient other than that Contractor will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the “Suspension of payment” paragraph of the EFT clause of this contract.

CONTRACT DOCUMENTS, EXHIBITS, AND ATTACHMENTS

Attachment A: Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA)

NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT

In accordance with FAR 3.101:

Government business shall be conducted in a manner above reproach and, except as authorized by statute or regulation, with complete impartiality and with preferential treatment for none. Transactions relating to the expenditure of public funds require the highest degree of public trust and an impeccable standard of conduct. The general rule is to avoid strictly any conflict of interest or even the appearance of a conflict of interest in Government-contractor relationships. While many Federal laws and regulations place restrictions on the actions of Government personnel, their official conduct must, in addition, be such that they would have no reluctance to make a full public disclosure of their actions.

I, _________________________, as an employee/subcontractor/consultant/representative of the ____________________________ working with the US Department of the Treasury (Treasury), may be furnished or provided access to non-public information that is the property of, submitted for review or evaluation by, or collected or results from the collaborated efforts between _____________________________, Treasury and any other entities working on these initiatives, and that such confidential/proprietary information shall be used only as directed.

I certify that I will not disclose any non-public information to any Contractor employees nor to any non-contractor personnel except those who have been authorized in writing by the Bureau of Public Debt (BPD) to receive such information and who have executed the same or similar Non-Disclosure Agreement. This agreement shall not be assigned, delegated nor any right or duty hereunder be transferred to any other individual or organization. I understand that the prohibition on disclosure of the protected information is an ongoing obligation and does not terminate with completion of the BPA work.
