    The Indian Health Service (IHS), under the Department of Health & Human Services, outlines compliance requirements for firms seeking contracts under the Buy Indian Act through a self-certification process. This document, titled the "Indian Economic Enterprise Representation Form," necessitates that Offerors confirm their status as an “Indian Economic Enterprise” at the time of offer submission, contract award, and throughout the contract's performance. Any deviation from this eligibility requires prompt notification to the Contracting Officer. Additionally, Offerors must be registered in the System of Award Management (SAM) and may need to provide documentation of their status to avoid protests regarding eligibility. The form emphasizes the serious implications of false claims, which are punishable under federal law. Successful Offerors must represent their business as either meeting or not meeting the definition of an “Indian Economic Enterprise” and provide relevant ownership and business information to ensure compliance with federal contracting rules. This document serves to facilitate adherence to the Buy Indian Act while promoting economic opportunities for Indian-owned enterprises.
