review these records to confirm the
contract quality requirements are being
met. This review is risk-based and may
or may not include the review of all
quality assurance records. Generally, the
records are more likely to be reviewed
when the contractor is not meeting
quality standards or as part of
Government Contract quality assurance
surveillance for complex requirements.
Subject matter experts estimate these
records are requested from 10 percent or
fewer of contractors.
The information is used to assure that
supplies and services provided under
Government contracts conform to
contract requirements.
• FAR 52.246–15, Certificate of
Conformance. This clause requires the
contractor to complete and sign a
certificate of conformance (CoC). This
clause is used in solicitations and
contracts for supplies or services at the
discretion of the contracting officer
when it is in the Government’s interest,
small losses would be incurred in the
event of a defect; or because of the
contractor’s reputation or past
performance, or when it is likely that
the supplies or services furnished will
be acceptable and any defective work
would be replaced, corrected, or
repaired without contest.
• FAR 52.246–26, Reporting
Nonconforming Items. This clause
requires contractors to provide written
notification to the contracting officer
within 60 days of becoming aware or
having reason to suspect, such as
through inspection, testing, record
review, or notification from another
source (e.g., seller, customer, third
party) that any end item, component,
subassembly, part, or material contained
in supplies purchased by the contractor
for delivery to, or for, the Government
is counterfeit or suspect counterfeit.
This clause requires certain contractors
to submit a report to the GovernmentIndustry Data Exchange Program
(GIDEP) system at www.gidep.org within
60 days of becoming aware or having
reason to suspect, such as through
inspection, testing, record review, or
notification from another source (e.g.,
seller, customer, third party) that an
item purchased by the contractor for
delivery to, or for, the Government is a
counterfeit or suspect counterfeit item;
or a common item that has a major or
critical nonconformance.
This information will be used by the
Government to address and detect
nonconforming and counterfeit items.
Perhaps more important, this
information will be available to
businesses for searching prior to placing
orders, thus enabling the avoidance of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: In 2020, ACF’s Office on
Trafficking in Persons issued six VHT–
NC demonstration grants to fund
projects to build, expand, and sustain
organizational and community capacity
to deliver services to Native Americans
(i.e., American Indians, Alaska Natives,
Native Hawaiians, and/or Pacific
Islanders) who have experienced human
trafficking through the provision of
direct services, assistance, and referrals.
The purpose of the proposed data
collection is to obtain a comprehensive
understanding of the VHT–NC projects
and their communities, including
implementation strengths and
challenges. A primary aim is to conduct
a participatory and culturally
responsive formative evaluation that is
informed by and respects the
knowledge, values, and traditions of the
communities implementing the VHT–
NC projects.
The proposed data collection will
include semi-structured interviews with
VHT–NC project staff, project
participants (adults who have received
assistance from the VHT–NC project),
and key project partners. Interviews
with project staff and partners will be
conducted individually or, if
appropriate and requested by
respondents, in small groups. Interview
topics will include community context,
project goals and design, organizational
and staff characteristics, partnerships,
outreach and identification approaches,
case management and service provision,
survivor engagement, and community
training. Interviews with project
participants will be conducted
individually. Participant interviews will
focus on the project services and
assistance received by participants,
including those most helpful to healing
and recovery.
Respondents: Respondents include
VHT–NC project staff (e.g., project
directors, project coordinators, case
managers/advocates, specialized
services staff), project participants
(adults who have received assistance
from the VHT–NC project), and key
project partner staff.
