A. Purpose
DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
A. Purpose
Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR)
Subpart 23.10, implements Executive
Order (E.O.) 13148 of April 21, 2000,
Greening the Government through
Leadership in Environmental
Management, and it also provides a
means for agencies to obtain contractor
information for the implementation of
environmental management systems
(EMSs) and the completion of facility
compliance audits (FCAs) at certain
Federal facilities. This information
collection will be accomplished by
means of Alternates I and II to FAR
clause 52.223–5. Alternate I of 52.223–
5 require contractors to provide
information needed by a Federal facility
to implement an EMS and Alternate II
of 52.223–5 requires contractors to
complete an FCA. FAR Subpart 23.10
and its associated contract clause at
FAR 52.223–5 also implement the
requirements of E.O. 13148 to require
that Federal Facilities comply with the
planning and reporting requirements of
the Pollution Prevention Act (PPA) of
1990 (42 U.S.C. 13101–13109), and the
Emergency Planning and Community
Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA) of 1986 (42
U.S.C. 11001–11050). The E.O.requires
that contracts to be performed on a
Federal facility provide for the
contractor to supply to the Federal
agency all information the Federal
agency deems necessary to comply with
these reporting requirements.
GENERAL SERVICES
ADMINISTRATION
Price, performance, and/or
implementation of socio-economic

15.407–2, Make-or-Buy Programs—
(i) Sets forth circumstances under
which a Government contractor must
submit for approval by the contracting
officer a make-or-buy program, i.e., a
written plan identifying major items to
be produced or work efforts to be
performed in the prime contractor’s
facilities and those to be subcontracted;
(ii) Provides guidance to contracting
officers concerning the review and
approval of the make-or-buy programs;
and
(iii) Prescribes the contract clause at
FAR 52.215–9, Changes or Additions to
Make-or-Buy Programs, which specifies
the circumstances under which the
contractor is required to submit for the
contracting officer’s advance approval a
notification and justification of any
proposed change in the approved makeor-buy program.
The information is used to assure the
lowest overall cost to the Government
for required supplies and services.
