The Indian Health Service (IHS) document outlines requirements under the Buy Indian Act for entities seeking federal contracts as “Indian Economic Enterprises.” It mandates that offerors self-certify their compliance with the eligibility definition at the time of making an offer, at the time of contract award, and throughout the contract’s performance period. Should an enterprise's eligibility change during these times, notification to the Contracting Officer is required. Successful offerors must also register with the System of Award Management (SAM). The document warns that submitting false information is against the law and subject to severe penalties. The representation section requires the offeror to declare whether they meet the definition of an “Indian Economic Enterprise.” This guidance is crucial as it ensures that only qualified entities are awarded set-aside or sole-source contracts, contributing to the promotion of tribal economic development in line with federal policies. Overall, this document is a formal self-certification tool ensuring compliance with federal contracting policies aimed at supporting Indian-owned businesses.

The performance work statement is referenced for more specifics regarding the work schedule and duties. Overall, the document serves to standardize pricing expectations and responsibilities for both the contractor and the government in the context of nonpersonal services contracts.
