FAR Update
FAR Subpart 4.17, Service Contracts Inventory, requires service contractors with contracts containing either FAR clause 52.204-14 or 52.204-15 to submit a Service Contract Report (SCR) to the System for Award Management (SAM.gov) at the end of each Fiscal Year.
FAR clauses 52.204-14 and 52.204-15 should be contained in all of the following types of service contracts:
- Cost-reimbursement, time-and-materials, and labor-hour service standalone contracts or orders with a total value above the simplified acquisition threshold (SAT);
- Fixed-price definite-delivery service contracts with a total value at or above $500,000;
- Indefinite-delivery contracts where the estimated total value meets either of the above criteria; and
- First-tier subcontracts for services.
The initial service contract reporting window will remain open until December 15, 2016, and all service contractors are encouraged to submit their responses during that time-frame.
It is extremely important that all service contractors comply with the reporting requirement. Contractors should be reminded that a failure to comply with the service contract reporting requirements must be documented as part of a contractor’s performance evaluation as required by FAR Subpart 42.15.
