    The Indian Health Service (IHS) of the Department of Health & Human Services has issued a self-certification form for Offerors responding to Requests for Information (RFI) or solicitations under the Buy Indian Act. This act requires Offerors to certify their status as an "Indian Economic Enterprise," defined under HHSAR 326.601, at the time of offer submission, contract award, and throughout the contract performance period. Should the enterprise no longer meet these eligibility criteria, they must notify the contracting officer immediately. The document emphasizes that the information provided must be accurate, as any false representation could lead to legal consequences under specified U.S. laws. Additionally, successful Offerors must be registered with the System of Award Management (SAM). The form includes a section for Offerors to declare whether they meet the definition of an “Indian Economic Enterprise” and provides space for required signatures and business identification. This certification process is critical for compliance and the integrity of contract awards related to federal initiatives aimed at supporting Indian-owned businesses.
