A commercial item (as defined in paragraph (1) of the definition at Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 2.101);(i)

Sold in substantial quantities in the commercial marketplace; and(ii)

Offered to the Government, under a contract or subcontract at any tier, without modification, in the same form in which it is sold in (iii) the commercial marketplace; and

"Construction material" means an article, material, or supply brought to the construction site by the Contractor or a subcontractor for incorporation into the building or work. 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 (2) costs as described in paragraph (1) of this definition, plus allocable overhead costs, but excluding profit.

(See FAR 12.505(a)(2)). The Contractor shall use only domestic construction material in performing this contract, except as provided in paragraphs (b)(2) and (b)(3) of this clause.

This requirement does not apply to information technology that is a commercial item or to the construction materials or components (2) listed by the Government as follows:

[Contracting Officer to list applicable excepted materials or indicate "none"]None

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.

The price of construction material shall include all delivery costs to the construction site and any applicable duty (whether or not a (iii) duty-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 (2) and the Contractor negotiate adequate consideration, the Contracting Officer will modify the contract to allow use of the foreign construction material.
