The term also includes an item brought to the site preassembled from articles, materials, or supplies. However, emergency life safety systems, such as emergency lighting, fire alarm, and audio evacuation systems, that are discrete systems incorporated into a public building or work and that are produced as complete systems, are evaluated as a single and distinct construction material regardless of when or how the individual parts or components of those systems are delivered to the construction site. Materials purchased directly by the Government are supplies, not construction material.

-Cost of components means

For components purchased by the Contractor, the acquisition cost, including transportation costs to the place of incorporation into the (1) construction material (whether or not such costs are paid to a domestic firm), and any applicable duty (whether or not a duty-free entry certificate is issued); or

For components manufactured by the Contractor, all costs associated with the manufacture of the component, including transportation costs (2) as described in paragraph (1) of this definition, plus allocable overhead costs, but excluding profit. Cost of components does not include any costs associated with the manufacture of the construction material.

means a component that is mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States and deemed critical to the U.S. supply Critical component chain. The list of critical components is at FAR 25.105.

The cost of its components mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States exceeds 60 percent of the cost of all its (A) components, except that the percentage will be 65 percent for items delivered in calendar years 2024 through 2028 and 75 percent for items delivered starting in calendar year 2029. Components of foreign origin of the same class or kind for which nonavailability determinations have been made are treated as domestic. Components of unknown origin are treated as foreign; or

The construction material is a COTS item; or(B)

For construction material that consists wholly or predominantly of iron or steel or a combination of both, a construction material (2) manufactured in the United States if the cost of foreign iron and steel constitutes less than 5 percent of the cost of all components used in such construction material. The cost of foreign iron and steel includes but is not limited to the cost of foreign iron or steel mill products (such as bar, billet, slab, wire, plate, or sheet), castings, or forgings utilized in the manufacture of the construction material and a good faith estimate of the cost of all foreign iron or steel components excluding COTS fasteners. Iron or steel components of unknown origin are treated as foreign. If the construction material contains multiple components, the cost of all the materials used in such construction material is calculated in accordance with the definition of "cost of components".

means a hardware device that mechanically joins or affixes two or more objects together. Examples of fasteners are nuts, bolts, pins, Fastener rivets, nails, clips, and screws.

means a construction material other than a domestic construction material.Foreign construction material means iron or steel products not produced in the United States.

For construction material that is not a COTS item and does not consist wholly or predominantly of iron or steel or a combination of (2) both, if the cost of a particular domestic construction material is determined to be unreasonable or there is no domestic offer received, and the low offer is for foreign construction material that is manufactured in the United States and does not exceed 55 percent domestic content, the Contracting Officer will treat the lowest offer of foreign construction material that exceeds 55 percent domestic content as a domestic offer and determine whether the cost of that offer is unreasonable by applying the evaluation factor listed in paragraph (b)(3)(i)(A) of this clause.(1)

The procedures in paragraph (b)(3)(i)(A) of this clause will no longer apply as of January 1, 2030.(3) (2)

.(B) For domestic construction material that is a critical item or contains critical components

(1)The cost of a particular domestic construction material that is a critical item or contains critical components, subject to the requirements of the Buy American statute, is unreasonable when the cost of such material exceeds the cost of foreign material by more than 20 percent plus the additional preference factor identified for the critical item or construction material containing critical components listed at FAR 25.105.

For construction material that does not consist wholly or predominantly of iron or steel or a combination of both, if the cost of a (2) particular domestic construction material is determined to be unreasonable or there is no domestic offer received, and the low offer is for foreign construction material that does not exceed 55 percent domestic content, the Contracting Officer will treat the lowest foreign offer of construction material that is manufactured in the United States and exceeds 55 percent domestic content as a domestic offer, and determine whether the cost of that offer is unreasonable by applying the evaluation factor listed in paragraph (b)(3)(i)(B) of this clause.(1)

The procedures in paragraph (b)(3)(i)(B) of this clause will no longer apply as of January 1, 2030.(3) (2)

The application of the restriction of the Buy American statute to a particular construction material would be impracticable or (ii) inconsistent with the public interest; or

The construction material is not mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States in sufficient and reasonably available (iii) commercial quantities of a satisfactory quality.

Request for determination of inapplicability of the Buy American statute.(c)

(1)

(i) Any Contractor request to use foreign construction material in accordance with paragraph (b)(3) of this clause shall include adequate information for Government evaluation of the request, including-

A description of the foreign and domestic construction materials;(A)

Quantity;(C)

Price;(D)

Time of delivery or availability;(E)

Location of the construction project;(F)

Name and address of the proposed supplier; and(G)

A request based on unreasonable cost shall include a reasonable survey of the market and a completed price comparison table in the (ii) format in paragraph (d) of this clause.

The price of construction material shall include all delivery costs to the construction site and any applicable duty (whether or not a duty-(iii) free certificate may be issued).

Any Contractor request for a determination submitted after contract award shall explain why the Contractor could not reasonably (iv) foresee the need for such determination and could not have requested the determination before contract award. If the Contractor does not submit a satisfactory explanation, the Contracting Officer need not make a determination.

If the Government determines after contract award that an exception to the Buy American statute applies and the Contracting Officer and (2) the Contractor negotiate adequate consideration, the Contracting Officer will modify the contract to allow use of the foreign construction material.

However, when the basis for the exception is the unreasonable price of a domestic construction material, adequate consideration is not less than the differential established in paragraph (b)(3)(i) of this clause.

Unless the Government determines that an exception to the Buy American statute applies, use of foreign construction material is (3) noncompliant with the Buy American statute.

. To permit evaluation of requests under paragraph (c) of this clause based on unreasonable cost, the Contractor shall include the (d) Data following information and any applicable supporting data based on the survey of suppliers:
