For contractors registered in SAM, the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) CAGE Branch shall only modify data received from SAM in the CAGE master file if the contractor initiates those changes via update of its SAM registration. Contractors undergoing a novation or change-of-name agreement shall notify the contracting officer in accordance with FAR subpart 42.12. The contractor shall communicate any change to the CAGE code to the contracting officer within 30 days after the change, so that a modification can be issued to update the CAGE code on the contract. Contractors located in the U.S. or its outlying areas that are not registered in SAM shall submit written change request to the DLA CAGE Branch. Contractors located outside the U.S. and its outlying areas that are not registered in SAM shall contact the appropriate National Codification Bureau points of contact to request CAGE changes. 6. FAR 52.204–17, Ownership or Control of Offeror. This provision requires offerors to represent whether they are owned or controlled by another entity, and if so, to provide the CAGE code and name of such entity. The CAGE code system may be used, among other things, to— (a) Exchange data with another contracting activity, including contract administration activities and contract payment activities; (b) Exchange data with another system that requires the unique identification of a contractor entity; or (c) Identify when offerors are owned or controlled by another entity. 7. FAR 52.204–20, Predecessor of Offeror. This provision requires offerors to identify if the offeror is, within the last three years, a successor to another entity that received a Federal Government award and, if so, to provide the CAGE code and legal name of the predecessor. The information on predecessors is used to identify such entities in the Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS) to allow retrieval of integrity and performance data on the most recent predecessor of an apparent successful offeror to whom award is anticipated. FAR 9.104–6 requires contracting officers to consult FAPIIS before awarding a contract that exceeds the simplified acquisition threshold. 8. FAR 52.204–23, Prohibition on Contracting for Hardware, Software, and Services Developed or Provided by Kaspersky Lab Covered Entities.
