    IHS IEE Representation Form_Jan 2022_508 Compliant.pdf
    The Indian Health Service (IHS) is facilitating compliance with the Buy Indian Act through a self-certification process for Offerors, confirming their status as an "Indian Economic Enterprise." The document outlines the requirements for certification at three critical time points: when an offer is made, at contract award, and throughout the contract's performance. Offerors must also provide immediate written notification if they no longer meet eligibility standards. The self-certification must be supported by registration with the System of Award Management (SAM), highlighting the importance of maintaining accurate information as eligibility can be subject to verification and protest. Any false representations may invoke legal penalties as stipulated under federal law. The form requires the Offeror to indicate whether they meet the criteria of an "Indian Economic Enterprise" and includes sections for certifying signatures from the business owner and acknowledgment of the tribal entity involved. This process underscores the IHS's commitment to adhering to federal regulations while encouraging participation from eligible Indian-owned businesses in federal contracting opportunities.
