Download as PDF ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1 55596 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 129 / Friday, July 5, 2024 / Notices ✓ Require that the contracting officer managing the contract with the largest total contract value be the responsible contracting officer to execute the novation agreement including a review by the government’s legal counsel. ✓ Limit the list requested at FAR 42.1204(e)(2) to multiple year contracts identified at the time of submission of the request. ✓ Review the list of documentation being requested in light of the advancement of electronic records. • For change-of-name agreements: ✓ Run the change-of-name process through SAM exclusively. Deem the name change automatically effective on all existing contracts and work orders and all pending submitted proposals via SAM. ✓ Limit the list requested at FAR 42.1205(a)(3) to multiple year contracts identified at the time of submission of the request. ✓ Explicitly permitting the electronic submission of change-of-name packages. Response: The respondents’ input is appreciated. The recommendations made by the commenters may be considered for future action. Any necessary revisions to FAR subpart 42.12, Novation and Change-of-Name Agreements, will be accomplished through rulemaking. Comment: In the process of updating a legal entity name in SAM, Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) Review requires a signed statement from a contracting officer before an update to a contractor’s CAGE will be made. At the same time, the responsible contracting officer requests that SAM be updated before issuing a novation or name change. This apparently irreconcilable administrative conflict causes delay in updating SAM resulting in more awards being issued against the original contractor that would need a modification. This creates additional burden for both the contractor and the government. Response: If a contractor is changing its name in SAM— 1. After completing the steps required by FAR 42.1205, the contractor would have to update/renew its entire Entity Registration in SAM and should be able to upload either the signed Change-ofName Agreement or the signed SF30, Modification of Contract, satisfying what’s required by the DLA CAGE team for screening and validation. See SAM’s Knowledge Base articles #KB 0016829 and KB 0016831. 2. Before completing the steps required by FAR 42.1205, the contractor— VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:16 Jul 03, 2024 Jkt 262001 a. Must provide the notification required by paragraph (d) of the FAR clause at 52.204–13, System for Award Management Maintenance. b. Would have to update/renew its entire Entity Registration in SAM. c. When SAM sends the CAGE for screening and validation to the CAGE team, the team may request legal documentation to support the name change. This could result in the contractor getting a request from the DLA CAGE team for the same documentation needed to complete the steps required by FAR 42.1205. See SAM’s Knowledge Base article #KB 0016831. 3. But the contractor does not have any open federal government contracts, then, the contractor would have to update/renew its entire Entity Registration in SAM. The contractor must provide the legal documentation needed to support the name change to the CAGE team to complete the CAGE/ SAM validation process.
