1.6.20 Organizational Conflict of Interest:

a. Purpose. The primary purpose of this clause is to aid in ensuring that:

(1) The Contractor does not obtain an unfair competitive advantage by establishing the ground rules for a future competition;

(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; and

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

b. Definitions.

(1) The term “Contractor” herein used means: (a) the organization (hereinafter referred to as "it" or "its") entering into this agreement with the Government; (b) all business organizations with which it may merge, join or affiliate now or in the future and in any manner whatsoever, or which hold or may obtain, by purchase or otherwise, direct or indirect control of it; (c) its parent organization if any and any of its present or future subsidiaries, associates, affiliates, or holding companies, and; (d) any organization or enterprise over which it has direct or indirect control now or in the future.

(2) The term "proprietary information" for purposes of this clause means any information considered so valuable by its owners that it is held secret by them and their licensees.

Information furnished voluntarily by the owner without limitations on its use, or which is available without restrictions from other sources, is not considered proprietary.

c. Organizational Conflicts of Interest Examples. The following examples illustrate situations in which organizational conflicts of interest may arise. These examples are not all inclusive.

(1) Biased Ground Rules. This type of conflict may arise in situations where a company sets the ground rules for a future competition. For example, when a Contractor develops requirements then competes to provide products or services to satisfy those requirements, thus obtaining a competitive advantage.

(2) Impaired Objectivity. This type of conflict may exist where a Contractor’s obligations under a contract require objectivity, but another role of the Contractor casts doubt on its ability to be truly objective. An example of this type of conflict is where a Contractor’s work under one contract entails evaluating itself, its affiliates, or its competitors under a separate contract.

(3) Unequal Access to Information. This type of conflict may arise when a Contractor has access to nonpublic or proprietary information as part of its performance under a contract that gives it an unfair advantage in a competition for a later contract.

d. 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 Contracting Officer that arise as the result of performance under this contract. To avoid or mitigate a potential conflict related to performance under this contract, the Contracting Officer 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 Contracting Officer 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 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

(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 task order or delivery order, it shall not be allowed to furnish these items, either as a prime Contractor, a Subcontractor or as a consultant.

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

(4) The Contractor agrees that if it gains access to proprietary information of other companies, it shall exercise diligent effort to protect such proprietary information from unauthorized use or disclosure. 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 shall 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 Contracting Officer.

(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 Contracting Officer, 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.

e. Non-Disclosure Agreements. The Contractor shall obtain from each employee who has access to proprietary information under this contract, a written agreement which shall in substance provide that such employee shall not, during his/her employment by the Contractor or thereafter, disclose to others or use for their benefit, proprietary information received in connection with the work under this contract. The Contractor shall educate its employees regarding the restrictions so that they shall not use or disclose proprietary information or data generated or acquired in the performance of this contract except as provided herein.

f. Training. The Contractor shall effectively educate its employees, through formal training, company policy, information directives and procedures, in an awareness of the legal issues so that each employee shall know and understand the bsolute necessity of safeguarding information from anyone other than the Contractor's employees who have a need to know, and the U.S.

Government.

g. Subcontracts. The Contractor agrees that it shall 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 be read by substituting the word "consultant" or "Subcontractor" for the word "Contractor" whenever the latter appears.

h. Additional Constraints. If this contract provides for the issuance of task or delivery orders, such orders may impose additional requirements and restrictions relating to this clause to include the requirement for the Contractor and its Subcontractors and employees to furnish the Government with written non-disclosure agreements or statements of no conflict of interest.

With regard to any proposal submitted by the Contractor in response to a Request for Task or Delivery Order Proposal, by submitting its proposal the Contractor represents that it has disclosed to the Contracting Officer, prior to the issuance of the task or delivery order, all facts relevant to the existence or potential existence of organizational conflict of interest.

i. Conflicts Involving Future Procurements. The award of this contract, task or delivery orders issued under this contract, Government taskings, or acquiescence in the Contractor’s performance of services hereunder 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 Contracting Officers for such efforts, applying the rules, principles, and procedures have the authority to determine whether a conflict exists in connection with such procurements.

j. Representations and Disclosures.

(1) The Contractor represents that it has disclosed to the Contracting Officer, prior to award of this contract, all facts relevant to the existence or potential existence of organizational conflict of interest.

(2) The Contractor represents that if it discovers an organizational conflict of interest or potential conflict of interest after award of this contract, a prompt and full disclosure shall be made in writing to the Contracting Officer. This disclosure shall include a description of the action the Contractor has taken or proposes to take in order to avoid or mitigate such conflict.

k. 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 Contracting Officer 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 will survive the performance of this contract and that it is impossible to foresee each circumstance to which it might be applied in the future. Accordingly, the Contractor may at any time seek a waiver from the cognizant Contracting Officer by submitting a full written description of the requested waiver and the reasons.
