About this file

The document is a system update policy note addressing discrepancies in the System for Award Management (SAM) representations. The document highlights that certain representations, such as 52.223-22 on Greenhouse Gas Emissions and 52.222-25 on Affirmative Action Compliance, may remain in SAM even though contracting officers will not consider or enforce these representations when making award decisions. Entities are not required or able to remove these outdated representations from their SAM registration.

The related federal contract opportunity is a waste and recycling disposal service solicitation (QSE--36C78625Q50311) for the National Memorial Cemetery of Arizona, issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs National Cemetery Administration. The solicitation requires a contractor to provide all labor, equipment (dumpsters), and supervision for scheduled and on-call waste disposal services. Contractors must carefully follow all instructions in section 4 of the solicitation, as failure to submit all requirements will result in non-compliance and elimination from competition.
