All materials supplied to the Government shall be the sole property of the Government and may not be used for any other purpose. This right does not abrogate any other Government rights.

1.6.23. Organizational Conflict of Interest. The Contractor and subcontractor personnel performing work under this contract may receive, have access to, or participate in the development of proprietary or source selection information (e.g., cost or pricing information, budget information or analyses, specifications or work statements, etc.) or perform evaluation services which may create a current or subsequent Organizational Conflict of Interests (OCI) as defined in FAR Subpart 9.5.

The Contractor’s mitigation plan will be determined to be acceptable solely at the discretion of the KO and in the event the KO unilaterally determines that any such OCI cannot be satisfactorily avoided or mitigated, the KO may affect other remedies as he or she deems necessary, including prohibiting the Contractor from participation in subsequent contracted requirements, which may be affected by the

OCI.

1.6.23.1.1. The Contractor does not obtain an unfair competitive advantage by establishing the ground rules for a future competition.

1.6.23.1.2. The Contractor's objectivity and judgment are not biased because of its present or future interests (financial, contractual, organizational, or otherwise), which relate to work performed under this contract.

1.6.23.1.3. The Contractor does not obtain an unfair competitive advantage by virtue of its access to non-public or proprietary information belonging to others.

1.6.23.2. General Constraints. The provisions of FAR Subpart 9.5, Organizational and Consultant Conflicts of Interest, concerning organizational conflicts of interest govern this contract. Potential conflicts may exist in accordance with FAR 9.505-1, Providing Systems Engineering and Technical Direction, through 9.505-4, Obtaining Access to Proprietary Information. In this regard, the Contractor is responsible for identifying any actual or potential organizational conflicts of interest to the KO that arise as the result of performance under this contract. To avoid or mitigate a potential conflict related to performance under this contract, the KO will impose appropriate constraints such as the constraints discussed below. Since it is impossible to foresee all of the circumstances that might give rise to organizational conflicts of interest, the constraints discussed below are not all inclusive and the KO may impose constraints other than, or in addition to, the constraints listed below.

(1) The Contractor agrees that if it provides, under a contract or contract/task order or delivery order, systems engineering and technical guidance for systems and programs, but does not have overall contractual responsibility, it will not be allowed to be awarded a contract or task or delivery order to supply the system or any of its major components or be a Subcontractor or consultant to a supplier of the system or any of its major components. (FAR 9.505-1).

(2) The Contractor agrees that if it prepares complete specifications for non-developmental items or assists in the preparation of work statements for a system or services under a contract or contract/task order or delivery order, cannot furnish these items, either as a prime Contractor, a Subcontractor or as a consultant. (FAR 9.505-2).

(3) The Contractor agrees that it will neither evaluate nor advise the Government with regard to its own products or activities. The Contractor will objectively evaluate or advise the Government concerning products or activities of any prospective competitors. (FAR 9.505-3).

(4) The Contractor agrees that if it gains access to proprietary information of other companies, it will exercise diligent effort to protect such proprietary information from unauthorized use or disclosure (FAR 9.505-4). In addition, the Contractor agrees to protect the proprietary information of other organizations disclosed to the Contractor during performance of this contract with the same caution that a reasonably prudent Contractor would use to safeguard highly valuable property. The Contractor also agrees that if it gains access to the proprietary information of other companies it will enter into written agreements with the other companies to protect their information from unauthorized use or disclosure for as long as it remains proprietary and to refrain from using the information for any purpose other than that for which it was furnished. The Contractor shall provide copies of such agreements to the KO.

(5) If the Contractor, in the performance of this contract, obtains access to plans, policies, reports, studies, financial plans, data or other information of any nature which has not been released or otherwise made available to the public, the Contractor agrees that without prior written approval of the KO, it shall not: (a) use such information for any private purpose unless the information has been released or otherwise made available to the public, or (b) release such information unless release is otherwise authorized under the contract or such information has previously been released or otherwise made available to the public by the Government.

1.6.23.2.1. Training. The Contractor shall effectively educate its employees, through formal training, company policy, information directives and procedures, in an awareness of the legal provisions of FAR Subpart 9.5 and its underlying policy and principles so that each employee will know and understand the provisions of that Subpart and the absolute necessity of safeguarding information from anyone other than the Contractor's employees who have a need to know, and the US Government.

1.6.23.2.2. Subcontracts. The Contractor agrees that it will include the provisions in paragraphs d., e., and f. above and this paragraph in consulting agreements, teaming agreements, and subcontracts of all tiers which involve access to information or the performance of services described in paragraph d. above. The use of this clause in such agreements shall substitute the word "Consultant" or "Subcontractor" for the word "Contractor" whenever the latter appears.

1.6.23.2.3. Conflicts Involving Future Procurements. The award of this contract, task or delivery orders shall not constitute or be interpreted as a determination that the Contractor is eligible to participate in future procurements, developmental efforts, implementation efforts, or related activities. Only the KO for such efforts, applying the rules, principles, and procedures of FAR Subpart 9.5 has the authority to determine whether a conflict exists in connection with such procurements.

1.6.23.2.4. Representations and Disclosures.

(1) The Contractor shall disclose all relevant facts to the KO, prior to contract award, related to existence or potential existence of organizational conflict of interest as noted in FAR Subpart 9.5.

(2) The Contractor shall make a prompt and full disclosure in writing to the KO if they discover an organizational conflict of interest or potential conflict of interest after award of this contract. The disclosure shall include a description of the action the Contractor has taken or proposes to take in order to avoid or mitigate such conflict.

1.6.23.2.5. Remedies and Waiver.

(1) For breach of any of the above restrictions or for non-disclosure or misrepresentation of any relevant facts required to be disclosed concerning this contract, the Government may terminate this contract for default, disqualify the Contractor for subsequent related contractual efforts, and pursue such other remedies as may be permitted by law or this contract. If, however, in compliance with this clause, the Contractor discovers and promptly reports an organizational conflict of interest (or the potential thereof) subsequent to contract award, the KO may terminate this Contract or any task or delivery order issued under this Contract for convenience if such termination is deemed to be in the best interest of the Government.

(2) The parties recognize that this clause has potential effects which survive the performance of this contract and that it is impossible to foresee each all future circumstances. Accordingly, the Contractor may at any time seek a waiver from the cognizant KO by submitting a full written description of the requested waiver and the reasons in support thereof. (FAR 9.503).

1.6.24. Section 508 Compliance. IAW FAR 39.2 ASIP and ASIP-S shall be compliant with Section 508, an amendment to the United States Workforce Rehabilitation Act of 1973. The Contractor shall ensure all ASIP applications are accessible to people with disabilities and that current and future requirements comply with Section 508.
